Played with the dog a little bit before I left for work. Just checked in with work to let them know I'm ready for orders, and looked down...

Shorts are covered in dog hair. Damnit. At least it'll be dark fairly soon, so people hopefully won't notice... much.

Stop and get you a sticky lint roller at Walmart/Target. They're cheap. Then keep it in the car for just such an emergency. A roll of packing tap will work in a pinch (cut off about 6" :quagmire: and make a sticky-side-out loop)

Actually I've only played about 10 minutes of single player so Im not sure, I do the car collecting in online. Pretty sure you always have to be parked inside a garage but I may be wrong.

But, just park it inside the garage once, then it's yours? I'll look it up. I assume you get a bigger garage at some point.
I've got a group of friends who play GTA Online, which is the primary reason I bough it when it went on a Deals with Gold special for $40. They promise that I can have plenty of cash pretty quick if I join their heists. Same guys I play Battlefield with, so hopefully their heists go better than Lamar's.

edit:
Just read up - you have to buy a garage to store cars, then buy more when you reach capacity. time to do some jobs for the cash.
I forgot about the AE86 coupe I spotted, and the 510 look-alike. Gonna snag those when I buy a garage and mod the gently caress out of them. "Fujiwara" rims on the AE86? Yes please.

I have a lint roller in my car just in case this situation arises. Pugs shed way more hair than you think.

Im not sure if its the exact same in SP, but in online you can grab random cars and throw them in your garage as long as it isn't a high end car. Roughly anything above a sports car, I think is considered high end. If you blow it up it wont auto respawn like the characters cars, you have to take it to a pay n spray and purchase a tracker and insurance for it.

This semester owns already. I'll have a question about ladder logic and this one dude at work immediately knows the answer. I'll have another question about THE GRID and this dude that sits right next to me at work is a GRID MASTA.

It's super weird how two seemingly divergent paths (random rear end EE masters degree and ME job) ended up converging after all.

Also HOLY poo poo turns out my school does corporate-sponsored docs and the power engineer professor owns enough for me to want to do some work there. The grid is ripe for research and I betcha I can convince someone at this power company to sponsor my poo poo if I can find something that'll benefit them enough...

Might be that someone found an exploit for your web frontend that allows arbitrary code execution or something. That's still a potential attack vector.

looks like it might have just been 'hacked' because the root account was enabled and had a default password and someone found my SSH port.

I am a linux beginner (I pretty much solely work with Windows stuff) and had assumed that the root account was disabled for any sort of interactive logon (raspbian makes you use a 'pi' account) - but when I restored my backup from around Christmas I could see a previous logon by root from a few days earlier on a remote IP - and could ssh to it myself as root and it has a generic default password.

I am now reinstalling it and shall take note of the lessons I have learnt this time and shall move any NAT rules onto more random ports, and enable SSH key based auth (and sort out the root account!).

Amusingly, I spend far too much time at work hacking windows devices (often using default passwords which are not strong in education systems!) and one of my jobs for the next few weeks is to finish writing a script that attempts to brute force passwords on all the windows servers, various common windows services and switches inside the corporate network of one of my clients (with permission!)

holyshit, its February already. Which means I am less than 4 weeks from my wedding. My shirt showed up today, wedding bands have been purchased, venue/food/dj is all set. I think we might actually have our poo poo together for this. Now to just get the wedding out of the way so we can go to the Dominican Republic for they honeymoon.

Now that I think back on it, I am pretty sure I originally got the name of the resort we are going to for our honeymoon from someone in one of the old chat threads. We are staying at Barceló Bávaro Palace Deluxe, which is supposed to be nice. Ended up booking a huge suite through a black friday deal that made it pretty drat cheap. I have never done the whole all inclusive resort, so I am excited to see what its like.

Scanning every port on every IPv4 address on the internet becomes an entirely tractable problem when you have gigantic botnets doing it for you. Changing the root password or removing password authentication and going key-only is going to be the most bang for your buck, security-wise.

Yeah, he was in school though when I was trying to get it done. Did it the first time and was pissed, then when I finally got all the air out (and there was a lot of air) I was on the last caliper and heard a giant sucking sound from the master and was like FUUUUUUUUUUCK. On the bright side the lines are loving flushed well I guess :v:
