AI generated content is great and all but it drowns out everything else on there. Anyone can type a prompt and generate a great looking image with a couple of attempts these days it seems.
The people spending days, weeks, months and more on a piece can’t keep up.
When it comes to WiFi Mac’s mobile phones have fudged them for “privacy” for years, if this goes main stream I see the same thing coming in for Bluetooth.
They promise the macs are random but I don’t have much faith in that.
Looking up a real Mac to see what manufacturer it came from is something I do almost daily sorting out network issues for customers and really is not difficult. From there it takes a leap to guess what the device is if it’s name doesn’t help but more often than not it’s easy enough to see what’s out there, the random macs of phones stick out like a sore thumb as they don’t come back as anything usually so you can then track that around the network and see what they are up to that way.
None of what follows is new. I know this stuff happens all the time. And yet somehow this insignificant thing shocked me and it’s been gnawing at me for the past few days. And today was the icing on the shit cake....
Yup, killed the one reason I had to go in there apart from the Pokémon codes.
Merch is overpriced, they won’t part-ex anymore. They closed stores and moved to crappy corners of sports direct and what not. It’s dying. It’ll be an online portal where kids send links to grandparents at Christmas soon.
First episode would be the press release saying it was a weird meteorite lol
Seeing the original plan for SG1 play out would have been nice, if they do something now it’ll lack the spirit of the old show IMHO. I’m ready to be surprised though.
It would have involved the Stargate being public, Jack and Sam getting together and l left the door open for a new series where the old cast still could appear without it being weird.
Nintendo being Nintendo. They’ve killed websites, device vendors, projects and more. Otherwise Liksang and Bung would still be around. They take the same destroyer of worlds tactic to any meetings. Crush the opposition, no survivors.
This time I think the internet may surprise them, unless they just get a blanket order on anyone hosting copies of the code or related materiels.
I manage hundreds of servers at work. They each have a BMC (remote power on/off, reset, KVM, etc) and we need to use those features frequently. I’ve been using a Google Docs spreadsheet to track their URLs, what each box is used for, specs, etc but it feels like a dynamic web app would be better for this purpose. Does anyone...
Thinking out loud but wouldn’t chrome bookmarks for the URLs backed up to a file/account work better than a sheet of it’s just for access?
As we have mostly Windows based machines we look after everything is in Pulseway or TeamViewer. Routers and misc tend to be on specific ports on their connections IP and we have a shared Keeper repository for passwords and notes.
The company I work for has been buying other companies and customers like is silly season in the last year so we are digesting all the extra crud that came with it and trying to streamline half a dozen CRM, RM and Monitoring systems at the moment.
It may be a stretch but Spyro, Tomb Raider and Portal may scratch that itch it thier own ways. Rad Rodgers is a side scroller 3D shooter and anything in the Contra style is going to be madness. The old Skylander games depending on the characters you used could be played as shooters I suppose.
If it’s gonna use a load of memory let me theme it, colour schemes, skins based on games and let me switch off the community feeds that are full of shitty trying to be funny guides and crap.

My thoughts are with those finding out they need to find new jobs, their whole lives just got upended.
With Destiny, we have had artificially extended seasons before, during COVID if I remember right. Seeing as we have stuff to do in game still we should be ok. Maybe they can mix things up a bit and rotate the exotic missions more often or allow a playlist of those.
I’ve be n using Astro for ages. I tried a few and found them bloated and missing something. Astro has some extra bits I don’t use but I never switched them on so it’s not an issue. You can hide anything you don’t use on the opening screen from the options too.
