If anti-trust is still a thing after the next 3 years.

You think this administration does any planning? They only have concepts of plans.

And if any of it is true, they’ll be the ones wondering why they didn’t get taken because they’re such good little christians.

Hyper-V is the hypervisor that the VM runs on. Yeah I don’t really know which malware scanners are the go to ones anymore. Just figure if I can get it to pass through 2 different ones ok then it’s probably ok. I’m sure there’s some other good ones out there. I’ve heard of ESET and virustotal, but I’m not familiar.

I use Hyper-V because I run server 2022 and it’s free. Hyper-V allows you to disable any host resource sharing in the VM settings.

On my sandbox VM I’ll scan the files then install and scan, then run the software and scan. I use both defender and I think malwarebytes. It’s a lot of extra work for no gain, but I’d rather be too careful than risk installing malware.

This is what I do. I have a VM for torrents and a VM sandbox to check stuff that in concerned about. At the host level I disable any type of sharing with the host, no copy paste, no sharing disks, nothing. The VM only gets the storage I assign to it and once I validate then I’ll detach and mount it to the host.

I’ll have to check that one out when I finish the Old Man’s War series.

Bought my first gun at the beginning of this year. I’ve shot many guns before but never had the urge to own one until recently. AR15, figured I’d need something more than a handgun in case things get out of hand.

I’m not sure why schools are allowing unfettered access to the internet on school devices.

Yea the bagpipes playing Amazing Grace gets me for some reason. If they played that at a funeral I might cry.

I’m the same way. My wife actually gives me shit for it because she doesn’t understand how I can’t have more feelings for those around me. I don’t think I’d shed a tear or even feel that emotional for anyone in my extended family dying. Just my wife and kids. Makes me question if there’s something wrong with me.

She can tell me some sad real life story and it doesn’t affect me. But movies, shows, books, and games can have me tear up or bawling.

Haven’t seen Hank Sauce Cilanktro listed yet.

I was on a jury for a workers comp case. Guy was suing some corpo because they denied his workers comp just because. Our entire jury was like “fuck that scummy corpo lawyer” and we sided with the guy who was a dedicated rail worker for like 20+ years. Felt like a small win.

Meh, I already have an ESP32 meshtastic device and that thing chews through the 3000mah battery I have connected. I don’t need another power hungry ESP32.

Link?

I’m not complaining, they give them to me for free.

You could argue the 90s smelled like teen spirit too
