Thanks for setting me straight. I’ll edit my post to reflect that.

Edit: see comment from @Zipitydew@sh.itjust.works below this.

Throughout history, America has chosen to ignore warnings of impending attacks. Australia notified the US about the Japanese fleet movement and, if I remember, even predicted the target was Hawaii. They did nothing to stop that attack in order up get the US into the war to help Europe when isolationism in the population was making the idea of getting into the war unpalatable.

In the cat and mouse game, the cat can adjust tactics but the mice eventually figure out an alternative route. I’m sure they will find a way with this. Either that or a lot of people will just stop watching YouTube, I’d imagine.

I’d imagine YouTube subtracts the ad length from posted timestamps when clicking a link containing one. But we are taking about Google, soooooo…

Yeah right, we all know you have a single copy of digital items and you can either put it here or there, but not both. That’s why NFTs were such a success! /s

…(which I’ll admit I thought was a scam back when I was forced to make an account way back when I had dial up)…

Oh man, I cursed Valve and Steam back then. It effectively made LAN parties of the time impossible since you could no longer share media and needed Internet access to play. Back then, only business had the “fast” Internets while everyone else had 56k baud modems. Hard to do much when your max download speed for the entire connection was 5kb/s.

I have saved this reply for the near future when I rebuild my server box to run Linux! Thanks again for your knowledge and information!

I’ll take a look at it, thanks!

Ahh the early 2000s. What a time to be a teenager with new tech, a dialup network, and bootleg videos that occasionally contained someone’s browser or a floating mouse or a separate video that briefly starts playing over the screen-capped video!

Back when the Internet was new and not a dying corpse, drained of all it’s essence by monied interests!

You sound like me with Docker. Still unsure how to use that shit but haven’t sat down to really try again, either.

I agree, reverse proxy was also a little mind numbing before I really buckled down and read/watched a bunch of info on it. I learn best by examples and try-fail, but that’s hard to do with live services.

So…we police the world the same way the “police” police Americans, with qualified immunity and military equipment? All the attacks on black and brown people abroad make a lot more sense when you take that “world police” and scale it down to domestic policing of Americans with similar skin color.

May your bot eat all the ass!

Is it under the Los Compadres Taco Truck?

I hope you’re right. I grew up learning about the Cold War. Didn’t think I’d have to experience it, but these fuckers refuse to leave power unless they die, and even then the survivors just Weekend at Bernie’s the corpse like Feinstein.

“NO TOUCHING!!”

Windows Update Blocker (WuB) is great, has CLI to use in scripts, and effectively turns off Windows updates and prevents the dickhead “Windows update medic” or whatever service from re-enabling updates. No need to modify registry or GPO. When you want to check for updates, you just click a button in WuB! I love it and even use it in my VM for work.

I know. That’s why I didn’t specify any specific deity and left it lower-case. They’re all the same never-ending grift.

Man, fuck international law, it goes against the religious beliefs held by many committing these atrocities. I’m not religious at all, but if your god is happy you bombed a fucking playground of children, then fuck your god.

Side note, I agree with you and this was not directed negatively to the previously reply. “Your” was used generally, not specifically. I hate this world sometimes, is all.

This is so fucking disgusting. There is no way the IDF doesn’t have precision munitions or know what they are targeting. Also, why the fuck even look to bomb a refugee camp? Why bomb a fucking playground inside a refugee camp? How can any civil person do that to children, regardless of their ethnicity? If the goal is to rid the area of Hamas, all they do is create more of them by doing this shit.

I’m sorry, I was willing to give the IDF the benefit of the doubt, but after other instances of a similar type, there is no doubt that this and other attacks on innocent children are deliberate. This was a playground. This was a refugee camp. These were children… Meanwhile, I’ll watch as many of the world’s governments shake their fists in the air at Israel, and do nothing more to stop any of this.

I’m gonna go hug my son while I mourn the world he is inheriting.

I’ll pass, thanks. Too many streaming platforms already.
