This baby’s built for deep penetration, not speed!

Yeah… I finished up the Tom’s article. Nope, I lied… I just gave up on reading it 😌

It just seems like something that could be encapsulated, no? I guess since they call it a hypervisor bypass it sits below the virtualization layer… which is essentially Greek to me. About 1 million years ago, I tried to get solid Works to run in a Windows VM on Lennox and it wouldn’t work. Best I could tell they were using device names that the virtual machine substituted for real hardware… I tried to recompile it and change the names, but I gave up because I didn’t care that much. Since I was using Solidworks pretty much all the time a dedicated machine wasn’t a big deal… as hard as most gamers game, that seems like the route I would go if it were me.

A deadhead gaming box more-or-less isolated… obviously it’s not exactly gaming on Linux, but if you’re playing a game on a windows computer from your Linux desktop… I’d argue that it’s the next best thing.

Good news!

Apparently DeNovo’s been hacked!

P.S. I’m shit at games… so I don’t know if this actually really matters 😝

I’m not seeing the upside there champ… they obviously cloned the card… which raises a few questions for me, because AFIK your not supposed to be able to do that with a debit card or credit card… at least not with a proxmox 🤔

Presumably it’s funded from your account? That’s kind of the point of privacy-dot-com.

They charge way faster under an a black light… not sure how that helps unless you’re going to the club in Blade… which, come to think of it, probably wouldn’t be great for the vampires. But it made for a cool ass movie, fight me!

Epic trolling 🤓

BART looking smug because there’s no vacuum tube shortage.

That brings a smile to my face. Thanks:-)

Yeah… that’s kind of what I’m saying though… if I go full out revolutionary, I’m probably not gonna trust anybody to have my back… and not belabor the point, but if this country goes to totalitarian, I’m going revolutionary.

I mean… honestly I have been intending to make those plans so years… so that’s on me 😝 Like literally pops is a German immigrant, I could have citizenship there, but it took a friend 8 years.

But part of me always comes back to the USA being my home, not something to be abandoned when shit gets rough. I don’t really consider myself politically motivated or minded, I didn’t vote for most of my life… nor does it really matter with the electoral college in my particular zip code. And somehow nothing local that really matters to me or has any bearing on my quality of life ever seem to make it on the ballot.

Maybe going to a protest is pointless, maybe it’s not. Maybe the point is not what changes on the ground but how we are perceived by the world at large.

Lastly… it seems less risky than anarchy or “direct action.”

Granted I am already a terrorist for thinking, seditious thoughts while duceing it out yesterday morning… but I’ll try the protest first 😅

Buuuuudy… if I thought I could get the shot in. And before you bother getting off that high horse, no I don’t own a gun.

Uhhhh… no, but protesting is definitely more fun with friends. I keep hitting all 3 of mine up and nobody wants to go.

Honestly whose comment were you trying to reply to? At issue here was the question of why not to call it a “no kings protest” and… fuck it. See you at the next one even remotely close to San Jose.

I mean… it probably makes it easier to get the required permits 😔

Word. Wasn’t aware you made the meme. YMMVBC I suppose.

Oh man! Making custom DVD rips back in the day with messed up versions of this 🥰 Now physical media is essentially dead so it’s hardly worth the effort.

I hear this all the time… but it’s cat by cat. I’ve currently got 3 and one is always down for belly rubs, the other 2 have to be in the mood.

I mean… maps has been kinda shitty for years!

It’s still better than Wayze trying to sell you burgers and fries at every stop sign… but you need to tap the search box like 3 fucking times to input shit, and why is that? So you have ample opportunity to see Crapple’s list of “suggestions….“

And have you noticed that you need to zoom down to AntMan scale to see the names of some businesses in a shopping center, and yet others are virtually visible from orbit? Could it be that businesses that pay Apple stick out like a sore thumb, and business that don’t virtually disappear? Nah… Fucking Apphole behavior.

It’s time to face facts, Apple stopped giving a shit about the customer years ago. Before their headquarters was literally a Bond villain’s donut you could drive through their parking lot and it was a sea of shitty rust buckets, executive parking lot underground.

I was giving serious consideration to going Android again rather then buying a 2K+ tablet… but then I need to buy a new watch and phone at the same time to have a slim chance of interoperability so it’s basically a wash.

Fuck Apple.

ROFL… I think there’s a quotable from Fight Club about his dad going around setting up “franchises…”

Honestly hoping to meet Patrick Vol… nope —not even going to take a swing at trying to spell his last name. But I seriously owe that guy a beer and pancakes.

On a semi related note, I think it took me a solid week of effort to get audio going (on Linux) just so I could be more confused about how to properly pronounce it. I want to say the file name was linux.au and it’s Linus saying something like “This is Linus Torvalds introducing UNIX as Linux.” Back in the day we had to spell UNIX with an asterisk because AT&T owned the trademark and aggressively enforced it.

All of this went down while I was working at a shitty little outfit called Los Gatos Computer Corporation. We built IBM PC clones in half the warehouse, the other half was full of old SGI computers. The scam there was that the business owners told SGI they were recycling the old hardware, but what they actually did was cobble together working systems from the broken bits. Basically one brilliant guy sat in a 10x10 room chain smoking and patching the busted SGI stuff back together. He hand soldered upwards of a hundred hair fine bodge wires, motherboards taped together… it was mental, but somehow they made enough cash to keep the whole crazy operation alive for a year or two.
