  • PlayStations for guns are offered up in New Orleans

    Jump

  • Ps5s are about $500 still iirc.

    You can totally get a used hi-point for less than that. Shit you can get a brand new one for less than $500. Police trade-in glocks go for about $400-$450.

    They're not nice guns, but they definitely work. I think this buyback program may very quickly run out of money, and if anything it encourages people to buy guns they otherwise wouldn't have just to trade them in.

  • Will pilots-less airplanes happens first, or driver-less cars? Why?

    Jump

  • Both kinda already exist.

    Easier to control for variables with airplanes. It seems like a simpler (still hells difficult, but simpler) problem to solve, so them first I'd guess

  • JetKVM's Source Code is now public! ✨

  • Sure, as long as the VPN itself is secure. Strong passwords/keys, etc. A VPN itself can be a potential security risk, as if it's compromised an attacker can tunnel traffic directly into a network straight past a firewall.

    The risks can definitely be mitigated, but if someone's asking for an ELI5 on KVMs, then it may be best to stay away until they have a better understanding of IT infrastructure altogether.

  • ELI5:

    It lets you remotely control a computer.

    It's different (arguably better) than remote connection software because it is a separate device that basically just forwards your keyboard & mouse inputs. This means that you can control the remote device even if it's powered off or not able to boot properly, and you can configure the BIOS remotely too.

    You could call someone on-site to connect the KVM to a server, but KVMs, while expensive by regular person standards, are pretty cheap as enterprise hardware goes. So some organizations just keep separate KVMs plugged into all critical hardware all the time.

    Worth noting here that KVMs are potentially a quite high security risk.

    Their website is probably light on details because "KVM" is fairly common industry parlance. If you normally work with this stuff then just hearing those 3 letters tells you most of what you need to know.

    Georgia judge shoots himself dead in his own courtroom on final day in office

    Jump

  • Well, GA is employment at will so, unless there's some special law for judges I don't know about, I'm guessing the 'rejection' is more symbolic than anything. My best guess is that he was about to be fired anyway and Kemp didn't want him to get away with acting like it was on his own terms. It would be good to hear a lawyer's take on it, though.

  • There's a scene in evangelion where the mc jerks it over an unconscious asuka (the character on the video card in the background) and nuts all over his hand.

    He covered his hand in thermal paste as a reference.

    It's a (intentionally) creepy scene and extremely off-color for a repair tech to send this to a customer, IMO. Good thing it's probably fake.

  • How can prostitution be arrestable? Other than an actual sting involving an officer, the exchange of money wouldn't be witnessed in almost all cases. So it's just two strangers having sex?

  • Can they sue crunch fitness next?

  • Colin Jost Appears Shocked As 'SNL' Crowd Cheers For Luigi Mangione

    Jump

  • If you watch the clip he's only caught off-guard that the audience didn't even wait for a punchline; he clearly isn't totally surprised that people support him at all

  • Biden Weighs Commuting Sentences of Death Row Inmates

    Jump

  • Biden is, once again, considering doing something. He won't, but he's thinking about it, and really isn't it the thought that counts?

  • Like if Microsoft released their own Linux OS, would it be good suddenly?

    It's worth noting that steamOS, like any Linux distro has its issues and a bit of a learning curve. Especially if you want to go off the beaten track, it's pretty much just using a stock arch distro.

    As for if MS switched to Linux, no it wouldn't be good because the issues with Win11 overwhelmingly aren't a matter of incompetence or anything inherent to the code, but of conscious anti-consumer business decisions. There's nothing about Linux that would actively stop MS from cramming telemetry, bloat, etc. In their distro.

  • Correctly identifying a problem while doing nothing that could possibly change it.

    That's Joe's legacy, I guess

  • 2 and 4 are the same person

  • When leftists say "landlord are parasites" or similar dislike of landlords, do they also mean the people that own like a couple of houses as an investment, or only the big landlords?

    Jump

  • Depends on the leftist, but generally I think hoarding land you're not personally using, especially during a housing crisis, is wrong.

    I also think that charging rent from people to simply exist in a place you aren't using anyway is wrong. When she pays the mortgage she's buying equity, when they pay the rent they're buying jack shit. It's an enormous parasitic drain on the economy.

    But I don't think she's, like, evil. Not the same way that major landlord companies are. And I understand the motivations. I still disagree with the methods, but until the great commie revolution/rapture (/s) comes we all have to engage with problematic capitalist systems to a greater or lesser extent.

  • If billionaires and CEOs feel like they need to start paying for large security details, would that be an example of trickle down economics?

  • Instead of fishing for a debate how about you just go ahead and say whatever it is you're thinking

  • Assad has left Damascus, say senior army officers; Syria rebels say they are in capital

    Jump

  • I'll confess, I'm embarrassingly uninformed on Assad and the broader situation in Syria. Anybody have any good resources to get a basic understanding?

  • Do you want the murderer of the UnitHealthcare CEO prosecuted?

    Jump

  • I mean, the case could go cold. People have gotten away with murder before. Granted there's a ton of extra scrutiny in this situation, but there's a definite chance.

  • Why do Americans always presume that everyone speaks English

    Jump
    1. because they're frequently proven right, English is the most commonly spoken second language after all
    2. Americans who can afford to travel abroad are generally more wealthy, and tend to be more over entitled in all aspects of their lives
