Ps if you want to be scared, look up showdan. Maybe look at showdan YouTube examples.

I trust Steve Gibson and I have listened to his podcast for years. Without trust, his tool does no more than what any other internet citizen can do, so even if you don't trust it, it's a trial by gentle fire.

Personally I recommend listening to security now podcast. But then again I've worked in IT for 15 years so it's kind of my thing.

What a great post.

Good post, nothing else I have to add though.

By your definition I should be called a footballer because I play football once a week casually. Ignore the 50 plus hour weeks of my actual job. I got $50 from football as season champions (it's a gift card, for the bar, at the place I play). I better go update my linkedin!

You're funny, good one.

I thought this was an onion article.

This sounds unbelievable, like the turning of a ship to avoid an iceberg. It's an unbelievably light sentencing, showcasing the country's lack of interest in protecting women's rights while declaring the intent to do so in the ruling.

If my partner was attacked, lost her hearing and had to attend court multiple times to defend her rights to safety, and the perpetrator got 3 years? I'd be furious.

I know she'd be devastated. The times she felt unsafe already leave such a big impact, let alone a realised attack.

Anyway. I do hope it's just a positive sign, that all it will take is a bit more time. I want to believe it's positive. But it's wild to compare what I'd like to believe as obvious human rights; to not be attacked to the point of disability from an unprovoked human, then believe in the justice system in arrears to punish and (theoretically) prevent.

Anyway, long rant. Processing it because I probably believed Korea was better than that. Not all the humans, just at least the culture and law.

It's solving a real problem in a niche case. Someone called it gimmicky, but it's actually just a good tool currently produced by an unknown quantity. Hopefully it'll be sorted or someone else takes up the reigns and creates an alternative that works perfectly for all my different isos.

For the average home punter maybe even up to home lab enthusiast, probably not saving much time. For me it's on my keyring and I use it to reload proxmox hosts, Nutanix hosts, individual Ubuntu vms running ROS Noetic and not to mention reimaging for test devices. Probably a thrice weekly thing.

So yeah, cumulatively it's saving me a lot of time and just in trivialising a process.

If this was a spanner I'd just go Sidchrome or kingchrome instead of my Stanley. But it's a bit niche so I don't know what else allows for such simple multi iso boot. Always open to options.

Don't waste time on pandering to proof of ability when actions speak louder than words. The release of your research is personally something I'm looking forward to regardless of your history or experience. I will interpret your research and evaluation with my own bias and sceptical stance. I'd rather question you afterwards if your article left questions unanswered or unclear.

Jumping the gun now and questioning you before we start just wastes both our time.

Good luck with your research!

Iirc I seem to find whatever was configured dead or no longer the cool choice when I check online.

Whatever it is, I barely touch it and it works great. Very happy.

Two pihole servers, one n VM vlan, one on device VLAN with OpnSense delivering them both via DHCP options. I sometimes update lists, like yearly... At best. They've been there over 7 years. Calling them robust is correct. The hypervisors are 3 proxmox servers in cluster using ceph. Intrl NUC 3rd Gen. Less than 80w combined with all vms. Also 8 years old no failures but tolerant for it.
