I'm beautiful and tough like a diamond...or beef jerky in a ball gown.

  • Thanks. Now I'm gonna start calling AI news summaries "tAIbloids" and make fun of the people who use them. 😆

  • Same energy:

  • Literally that.

  • I loved AoS even when it started to get weird after season 5 or so. Should re-watch that soon-ish.

  • It was, and I remember that too. Was just being farcical...

    ...to balance out the downer ending.

  • They actually did follow up, and the episode was one of the better ones:

    Spoiler: https://memory-alpha.fandom.com/wiki/Course:_Oblivion_(episode)

    Though between "Demon" and "Course Oblivion" that's a good question. We don't see Voyager itself getting duplicated, so I guess they spent the time building it out of rocks and then forgetting they were duplicates.

  • 15 posts for a 3hr old account. Slow your roll, Louna.

  • Yep.

    Most of them are phishing test emails (where the org sends out fake "phishing" emails which have a UUID link tied to your email address) so they KNOW who clicks on these and who reports them. Until I stopped giving a fuck, I had reported 100% of them and clicked on 0. But since that doesn't let you "test out" of the 45 minute quarterly security awareness training, I stopped wasting my time and just delete them

  • The regular R4 is about $250 right now so I'd guess at least that much. A little pricey and probably over-powered for my use cases, but probably a bargain if you need the horsepower.

  • Sometimes I wonder whether all this "security awareness training" has any effect at all.

    Nope lol.

    My org sends out phishing tests randomly. I used to report every single one and have never clicked on any. But we all have to take the stupid training regardless of whether we successfully detect/report them or not. So I've just stopped reporting them since there's no incentive whatsoever.

  • Always reminds me of this scene from Scrubs:

    • you're
  • Update: Yes! Seems to be. Calipers confirm the diameter. TYVM!

    Thanks. I'll grab my calipers and confirm if the measurements are correct. Specs say MHF4 is 1.13mm.

  • Those letters probably wouldn't be very helpful, so it'd basically be a $25,000 dick joke lol.

    (Or whatever the grand-prize value is these days)

  • Ooh, I haven't tried RTL-SDR on it yet, but I think I'm nearing capacity on what it can do at once lol.

    Here's the block diagram for it (in spoiler below). Everything's up and running except the Bluetooth Receiver -> Snapcast (it works on the bench but I don't have the scripting/automation done yet). I'm also adding an SMA connector for an external antenna, but the new base part is still printing. Photo shows it "as is" of this writing.

    SSL for the web apps was a PITA since I wanted real certs. Had to make a wildcard domain under my main hobby domain, so all my apps are like "https://{APP_NAME}.mobile.mydomain.xyz/"

    As soon as I can get the Bluetooth + Pulseaudio scripting done, I'm gonna try to do a write up and maybe a show/tell post.

  • I would love to have a small Wikipedia browser that can survive the apocalypse.

    I've got the full 120 GB Wikipedia dump running in Kiwix on a Raspberry Pi Zero. Works great (surprisingly)

    E-ink display, mini keyboard

    Have been using a Minimal Phone for a few months now which has both of those. Can connect to the Pi easily.

    multiple ways/ports to transfer info,

    Add a USB-C hub (or add a hub to the Pi) and you're set

    All wrapped up in a heavy duty equipment case that's able to survive a building collapses and burns in an earthquake, that's shielded from EMP.

    And that's where I'm limited - My 3D printer can only do so much lol. 😆

    I've been working on a side project this week with a Orange Pi Zero 2W (Pi Zero "clone" but with better specs). It's got the Kiwix+Wikipedia like my older Pi (described above) plus a bunch of other neat stuff. It's kind of a combination travel router, portable web app server, party box, and extremely over-engineered bluetooth speaker all-in-one. Hoping to put together a show-and-tell post about it when I get the last of it squared away.

    Obviously they match, but which came first? The attitude or that haircut?
