I am thinking of having stained glass window put in along the side wall of the college chapel where I went to school. It would be in memory of a good college friend of mine who recently passed away. There are several panels there...

santuccie Not 100% sure what might be behind the outage, but I would think that an invasion would include jamming up all means of communication, including Internet. I know Comcast is a cable company, and so their phone service comes in the form of VoIP. But I believe...

I get why passwords are important, don't get me wrong. And I am pretty good about coming up with a password that well, you'd have to know a very deep secret about me to even come close to what they are. Not bad secrets, mind you....

santuccie @porwest Yeah, I have clients who used to use pen and paper. There are a few problems with that: first, they end up with multiple versions, as they forget passwords again and again, struggle to find the correct password in their cluttered tablet, and keep...

santuccie @porwest Ads are good for monetizing offline apps, where the developer doesn't have overhead. They can just launch the app on an app store, and release updates periodically as bugs are found and features are added, but they don't have to pay for their own...

santuccie I first opened a Coinbase account back in 2019, but didn't take crypto seriously until June of 2022, when I started seeing crypto, crypto, crypto all over Facebook. I lost a bit of money in scams, but learned from the experience. I made a little bit of money...

santuccie @porwest LOL, they gotta pay to keep those servers running, so all my devices stay synced. There are free alternatives, but most are harder to use. Some of them don't provide synchronization, and you have to back up to a third-party server and sync all your...

santuccie What sites do you use? Crypto seems to be leveling the playing field a little bit. Whereas a lot of websites that pay fiat currency are only available to Americans, a lot of crypto earning sites are available to almost everyone except Americans, haha. But I'm...

santuccie I believe crypto is here to stay, and so does ChatGPT. Crypto is democratization of money. Even Elizabeth Warren seems to have given up her crusade of trying to do away with crypto entirely, and is instead pushing for regulation, which I support because it...

When I was young, my parents had some presumably low-budget, non-Disney fairy tale cartoons on VHS. They were pretty funny, but likely not very successful. I've tried searching Google for every known publication of a title, as...

Do you still have a directly connected monitor at home? Or, in fairness is your monitor actually also a TV? Do you use Chromecast or do you use a cable? It is an interesting question, I am interested in what people are doing!

santuccie @DocAndersen Correct. That's why I use ridiculous WiFi and router admin passwords, and keep all streaming devices on the guest network. The one unsecured device on our internal network is the new HP printer. I'm researching IoT firewalls for that. Feel...

santuccie It looks nifty. Not for me, though. I don't like connecting unsecured devices to my internal network. And I only need to stream one device at a time, anyway.

santuccie @Hannihar LOL, my mom had an orange tabby years ago named Killer, who absolutely loved to fight. He tried to murder my right arm once. By the time he fell asleep on my chest, my arm was looking like the body of Christ.
