It was real cheap, which is why I picked it up. Very soft, mild cheese, in my opinion. Good for piling onto something and melting all over it. It’s described as a “cow’s milk cheese with a buttery flavor”.  It’s kinda similar to Havarti if you’ve had that.

The cheese, for me, is debatable only because if you branch out enough you can find a lot of REALLY good-melting cheeses. They’re often a lot more expensive than American, though, and the flavor and creaminess of it does make it a good go-to choice.

I think the problem is that most people assume you can just pick it up and replace one with the other. They’re not the same. If this study is as controlled as I expect it to be, I’d assume that they asked people to quit cold-turkey, start using vaping, and maybe taught them how to use the device but nothing more.

Thank you for posting the link so I could still see the adorable cat.

That’s good to hear. I actually work right across the street from the airport and I’ve seen planes come down just over the treeline across the street, so I definitely understand the need to protect them on approach. It would be pretty horrible for someone to be interfering with their operations over here.

Completely agree. I feel “stupid” or “idiot” are very different terms than “ignorant” and yet people get more offended when called “ignorant” when all it means is “you don’t know yet”. You can educate yourself and rise up out of ignorance. Stupidity is a much harder habit to break.

No need for apologies, it’s great information for people who might have felt like vaccine court sounded like a stupid idea.

Haha, no, just the whole lack of understanding of science and how it works that made it necessary. :) I probably should’ve elaborated a bit.

Hey, thanks for taking the time to explain some of it to me! Honestly, I doubt our airport is too bad, it’s actually more like a rural airport it’s just that it’s so close to the international border and Lake Erie Islands (I’m near Port Clinton, OH if you want to look it up) that we have several airports in the area,…

God that’s stupid.

Agreed. I know plenty of conservative and liberal-minded people who think anti-vaxxing is bullshit and I’ve met some of both political mindsets who are all about it. It has nothing to do with politics, which is why I wish the government would just crack down on this shit already.

I’m curious, why haven’t we seen lawsuits about this yet? Or have we and they’ve been struck down? I’d suspect it’d be a pretty big deal if someone sued a city/state/school or even another child’s parents if their child died from a totally preventable illness due to them having a medical exemption while the other…

I recently made my first real drone purchase and have been wanting to talk to someone knowlegeable about all of this. I intend to take the test for the Part 107 once I’ve studied up more. Looking at an aeronautical map of my area, the airspace where I live and the surrounding areas is Class E to 700' and then Class G…

This. I really hope this is forthcoming, and soon. It’s kind of ridiculous it isn’t already a “thing”.

Yeah, from my limited knowledge of this stuff they typically take over home grade hardware and use it to attack the high-end stuff. Creating a bot-net or something similar, basically.

I’mma be honest with you that I don’t know THAT much about exactly how those things work except to say double-check your cables are Cat6, maybe? Also double-check that you’re not confusing MB/s with Mbps, but based on what all you seem to be saying here I don’t think you’d make those mistakes. :/

Oh I agree, which is why I said “don’t just ignore it if you’re not in the Ukraine” and “this kinda thing does tend to spread”. Definitely want to get it updated. I just don’t think anyone needs to freak out right NOW if they’re in, say, the US.

A bit more info from a WIRED article I looked up: “The majority of its 500,000 victim routers are in Ukraine, a portion that has been growing quickly since May 17, when Talos saw a spike in Ukrainian infections controlled by a separate command-and-control server. Combined with the malware’s firmware-corrupting…

It sounds to me like this is a firmware vulnerability, and OpenWRT is a custom firmware, so my guess would be no. I’d do a bit more research to be sure, though, rather than take the word of a random person on a Lifehacker article. ;)

I think the main point is that it says there’s no “easy” way. I’d suspect professionals can use tools that aren’t readily available to the public (or just overly complex for your average user) as well as the source code for the firmware to figure out just which routers are susceptible and/or infected.
