I used to live in France, and I remember hearing about how it's functionally impossible to evict someone who refuses to move out. There are many horror stories of people squatting places, or just not paying rent anymore. The police won

Yeah, I was surprised when I received mine that it doesn't have an "off" mode, by default. Granted, the battery lasting over a week is fine, but considering I only use it a couple days a week, it feels a bit wasteful. I might

Scandinavia here. Banks, pharma, industry, commercial buildings still use NFC for building access control. 25% of those use things modern enough to be easily cloned by the F0 (e.g.: not FireDES). My underground parking sends a wireless sign

I easily cloned access cards to the building of a club I'm a member of, as the company managing the security access went the way of the dodo. Granted, it's not a long term solution, but it's a stop-gap measure that allows us

Both AC controls and volume are on touch-sensitive buttons on the new VW entertainment systems. The volume bar/AC temperature buttons don't even light up at night, making it completely invisible under the bright touch screen. Once

Loaded in a handful of seconds, but it doesn't appear I'm able to click on anything. Super duper cool though.

How exactly does one increase the engine displacement on a moped? I’ve heard this claim many times, but more often than not it was just a random mechanic who charged a few hundred euros to put a different speedometer with inflated readings.

Or, you know, use a hash of the previous row as a column value of the current row. That way, you can’t tamper with any data already stored in the database.

Not OP, but I have (virtually) the same rule. I’m averaging about 3 beers a year, and only when I really, _really_ feel like it. I don’t have a specific reason for it. The one reason most people seem to accept is when I say “I don’t like th

It is eerie how much that looks like my workbench. I guess EEs are all the same.

Indeed. I have 2TB of storage that is only 5 times slower than my 32GB of main memory (4GB/s vs 20GB/s).

I remember being on a decent wired connection, working late in the office in London. All of a sudden, I got a call from the IT manager for Europe, who wanted my help to figure out which device was performing a DDoS or was part of a botnet.

Except for the part where batteries are chemical processes that can deteriorate when poorly maintained. Just look at how people abuse rental cars (e.g. Clarkson’s “Fastest car in the world”). Then there’s the added issue that if you get a d

Not OP, but my current gig is literally building streaming data pipelines on top of S3 using lambdas that only have a few hundred MBs of RAM to process gigabytes or more of data. S3FS is as close as it comes to mounting in my book.

Here in Denmark, banks typically use NemID; a government issued 2FA system. The basic version uses an OTP sheet of ~140 passwords. People can opt in to use phone-based validation (push notifications to an app and confirmation with a slider)

Just don’t allow outbound DNS except from your pihole, and the Chromecast will use whatever DNS server you give it. Also, make sure to block UDP and TCP on port 53, as well as UDP on port 443 (Chrome snitching).

Not OP, but in my case, most of my VLANs can’t perform DNS requests to WAN. Only the pi.hole server is able to do that (and other devices in the DMZ). Reasoning: appliances like Chromecast/Apple TV/whatever will often ignore DHCP

I highly recommend cfn-lint [1]. As someone who has been writing CFN for a living for the past few months, it’s a godsend. [1]: https://github.com/aws-cloudformation/cfn-python-lint

There’s a number of hardware revisions of this particular router, and the origin of the bug(s) is not yet identified. Maybe it only affects specific configurations, or specific hardware revisions using certain configurations.

Forbrydelsen. In Danish, the indefinite article (en, et) can be suffixed to nouns to make them definite. Example: en dreng = a boy, whereas drengen = the boy. “Son” is not extremely common, even in patronyms. Usually the “son of” suffix in

I’m not sure you understand opening theory. It takes years to learn a single opening, and I don’t think any serious player would claim they know all variations/sidelines of a given opening. There’s no single “best” opening because you
