I was just thinking the other day that a non-profit wiki for sysadmins would be invaluable. It could cover all the basics but also feature case-studies of real-world examples of solving problems, so there could be a sort of knowledge base t

"Sole discretion" basically means if they don't like you or your activity or speech for any reason, they get to fine you and punish you. That sure sounds like intolerance to me. Otherwise what are they tolerating?

After my divorce, I dove into the hetero online dating community and discovered that many men lie about their height in their online profile. This is more common among men because many women do in fact want a taller man. Similarly, men and

No, actually. All domains use an alias but this was sent directly to my primary, but not sent to any of our historic or present domain WHOIS contacts.

I received this at 1:07 AM PST to my work sysadmin account. It passed Barracuda and Office 365 spam filters. Initially I felt a surging panic when I realized the source IP was indeed FBI, especially considering one of our close partners rec

Do you have any insight into what contributed to Far Cry 5 non sequiturs such as leaving out Native Americans (6.5% of MT pop) but including many more African Americans than would ever be present (0.45% of MT population) but fewer Asians th

I never got to properly thank the 15-yo lifeguard who saved my 7-yo from certain drowning in a crowded artificial lake pool. We turned away for what only seemed a minute and he was going under. He was slightly blue in the face when the life

About six years ago I found several 8" floppies for the 1970s Ohio Scientific system. These had been in storage since the late 1980s and contained games and utilities. One disk label was dated 1/31/1979. I sent them to the au

I was diagnosed in my 30s in part by the T.O.V.A. test, which gave me surprising insights. The hardest part of the test for me was to stop pushing the button when it told me to. It's hard to describe how difficult that was for me. By t

What amazes me is crows manage to do all this with their beaks. Imagine if they had limbs and hands like monkeys? It would be Rise of the Planet of the Ape Crows.

I read somewhere a few months ago many websites through TOR had suddenly started popping up CAPTCHAs on CloudFlare, which apparently requires enabling JS. Why would CloudFlare start doing that to known TOR users?
