Hey, we NEED those shitbag votes too

Winner winner chicken dinner

And they can eat shit

I disagree!

That wordplay is nowhere near good enough to be considered mediocre

More like the curse of nostradumbass

I can still remember the idiots of Reddit that would agree with and extend what were supposedly to be obviously sarcastic comments.

“I don’t belong to any organized political party, I am a Democrat”

They were increasing demand for labor which pushes up the price of labor.

Maybe in spite of themselves, they were helping.

I don’t think most of the people we are talking about are irrational.

They are arguing in bad faith.

It’s not that they are stupid, it’s that they’re stubborn.

And arguing against them actually poses risks because they will lie about what you said if they can use it to polish their lies.

I have quite a few smart home devices. But the only “crappy IoT things” is an air purifier that is controlled by phone.

Unfortunately, I bought quite a few T-Link products before the IC revealed that they are dangerous.

It is worth exploring.

Edit TP-Link

I had set my router to track IP Statistics. There were 9 packets sent and received to that IP.

Thanks!

I did not think of this. I will have to go into the bios to turn off the battery of my work laptop.

It is probably going to come to this.

I have Wireshark, but haven’t really had a reason to learn it. I mostly just stare at the traffic rolling by the way they do on The Matrix. This is on the list to try.

I have x-code loaded on a Mac, but that is the closest I have to that.

It does, and it’s not listed there.

It is more than your average home network. I have a dual WAN router with fiber on each to a different provider. (It is stupid overkill, but my wife and I both work from home and it is important not to be down). I use a pi-hole for ad blocking and unbound for recursive DNS resolution. Most of the devices are wired Ethernet, so I have a bunch of switches and kit to transform coax into fast Ethernet.

I don’t mess with the firewalls, because that seems like there is a big downside to messing about if you get it wrong. That is all vanilla out of the box.

Sounds like purchasing got a deal on surplus spook gear.
