There are 2 primary types of wireless signals we use daily, wifi & bluetooth. Any wireless device around you right now uses 1 or both of those signals. A longtime, well-known vulnerability of those signals is that the initial connection is the easiest time to “hack” the connection. As noted above, it’s not some…

NP for the Odessa high school backup quarterback or your local Florida Man. ND for just about anyone else.

My company requires it for people to who conduct interviews, so they can send the profiles to candidates to look at prior to their interview. For me, it is most beneficial to track where ex-colleagues go so I know where to look if I think about a new job. 

I keep getting notifications to review/comment on some article/journal saying something like “this is for the few experts like you who can review” I assume to drive engagement to that stuff. Very much playing on people’s egos, especially since I would rate from barely competent to largely uninformed on the few topics…

How great would it be to drive this around Texas, but with a pride flag on that back window. 

The minutes one is generally a bit silly, as the shows who dominate it are the shows that people just put on as background noise. Multiple members of my house have done cleaning, taken naps, or any other array of activities while NCIS just sits there playing. I routinely have to turn off TVs that no one is watching...

This is some top tier comment-to-username synergy.

Sounds like demand for infinite growth is the real villain here.

Most of the 90s and early aughts come to mind. 

My first thought was that 3% actually sounds like a pretty accurate number for the amount of users that read from reliable news sources. Facebook is just cutting the facade of pretending that real news exists there. I assume this is in response to news sources wanting to get paid for all the content that Facebook…

Papa Murphys is easily a step above any chain, you just have to bake it yourself. As an ex-mid-westerner, I think you’re stuck with tenderloins, brats, horseshoes, or something meant to resemble chili, depending on which part of the region you’re in. Maybe a good chicken fried chicken if you’re lucky. 

Is there a single tenant of the GOP that is not really just a smokescreen for Christo-Fascist authoritarians?

That was my thought as I read this. This article is the first time I’ve heard that Wagoneer was a sub brand. 

Anti abortion states will 100% use it for tracking pregnant women (or whatever the AI thinks is one) to then monitor them for a baby.

Your rights against being recorded and that recording being shared while you’re in public are pretty slim. AFAIK, there probably isn’t anything stopping them from willingly sharing their data with any cop who asks. They could likely say no and force a warrant if they didn’t want to share the data, but selling that…

MBA courses actually teach a number of ways to operate a business (and they really like the Japanese words for those styles). The C-suite simply chooses the easiest path where to make as much a possible until business failure, knowing they can simply move to the next business & repeat. I’d rate that it is more of a…

It’s been a while, but I remember having huge issues with a certain cell phone carrier’s fiber line getting installed without permits. They were expanding so fast, it was cheaper to pay the fines and get the fiber in the ground than it was to work through the actual process. Made it very problematic when we’d get a…

Turns out that everyone loves a free market right up until a bigger fish comes to eat more of the market.

Some guest on a podcast I listened to had a great statement on stuff like this: Old entertainment used to be a very long and narrow line, with a select few getting to the front. Modern entertainment is a very short and wide line, so anyone can get to the front. Artists have the benefit of being seen with limited…
