didn’t Verizon overbuild most, if not all, of the area with FiOS? not sure how they’re getting away with it in the rural regions unless there are still CLECs operating. All this to say… fiber still has the issue of power outages and nonfunctioning customer backup batteries in the ONTs and I vaguely remember some drama over Verizon not offering replacement batteries or providing backups at all.
I think you mean McDonnell Douglas, it’s what happens when companies fire all the engineers in charge and replace them with beancounters.
it would have been perfection if they had done this last thursday (on 4/04), add another fail to the list.
i’m almost certain there’s a hentai like this
100%, this is a trap being set for retail investors… not touching this even if I had a 1000ft pole.
Haven’t looked up the station’s license to see how much power they could have been pushing, but if I were the “authorities”, I’d definely be checking local hospitals for records of anyone coming in with mild to severe [RF] burns. With [low frequency] AM stations, the tower itself is basically the other half of the antenna electrically… probably lit them up like a Christmas tree.
i can sort of understand at&t being at&t as they continue to piss hundreds of millions away on subpar investments while continuing to bitch about being poor and needing government handouts to make the boo-boos hurt less, but what does google have to gain from this? and i could have swore that at some point it was mentioned starlink is/was going to use google data centers as PoPs for their ground stations, but maybe i’m miss remembering…
turn your key, sir!
it wouldn’t hurt. i wish my work would just give me a VM to remote into instead of dealing with it on my network, at least in my case all the EDA tools I use are ran on Linux anyway… my last employer put so much spyware “security” software on their work issued laptops that Suricata on my router/firewall would light up like a Christmas tree. no idea what it was trying to do without breaking out Wireshark and analyzing captures, but that’s when i said enough is enough… can’t be trusted.
amen, i love EndeavorOS. i’ve jettisoned all Windows support in my house and anything that needs Windows gets put into an isolated VLAN that can’t talk to anything else. and for the archaic business crap that only has a Windows release, CrossOver is a godsend. same CodeWeavers devs that made Proton and is essentially Wine Premium.
6.6.5 has been a massive pain in the ass with the MTK wifi in my asus g14. very happy this got released quickly, no more deadlocks!
i use Tailscale on everything these days (or use Headscale if you want to self host the control plane). with the free plan you get up to 100 devices on a “tailnet”, just set the right ACLs to only allow the remote connection ports of choice, pair it with self hosted RustDesk, and you should be good to go. the NAT traversal of Tailscale is pretty good from what i’ve observed, but sometimes you might get stuck on a relay (called a DERP) if it can’t get across the firewall(s).
Dave Plummer has a very interesting take on this since he was the dev manager for Windows CD Autorun at the time. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PqWjq2SdzpI
omg me too… a much nerdier friend of mine told me to install Gentoo on my first custom build back in the early aughts. printed out the guide and spent over a week 24/7 compiling everything with an athlon 64 3500+… and had never used Linux before this… good times, man.
from what i recall almost every QCOM chipset has the circuitry baked in, it’s just disabled. https://www.wired.com/2016/07/phones-fm-chips-radio-smartphone/
Zig is really starting to grow on me, it’s basically an unfucked C (screw you, macros) and you can translate C into Zig code…and it has comptime, very nice! I don’t have the patience for Rust in my hobby projects and the standalone-ness of Zig is perfect for embedded/systems programming. it definitely needs to mature more before the masses start taking it seriously, but goddamn it’s nice to code in.
it’s also a big FU to everyone accessing Gmail’s web interface over geostationary satellite internet connections. i had to deal with that shit for a few months and HTML mode was the only way to ease the pain from how bad the latency can get. the “normal” view would hang like a mofo all the time.
war thunder forums, your one stop shop for restricted military documents
hard to say for sure, but U109 and U208 could be UART into those Cisco baseband or radio chips. one placement for the 2.4 GHz (G) and 5 GHz (A), respectively. would be interesting to probe around there and see if you get a serial interface to it… obviously for extra credit ;-)
