Country Death Song by the Violent Femmes. It’s banjos and a proper upbeat hoe-down vibe alongside lyrics talking about crushing poverty and killing one of your children so you can afford to feed the others and ends with the narrator hanging themselves. It’s bleak as fuck and very not my normal jam, but somehow it grew on me and I love it.
Bonus: Godzilla by Blue Oyster Cult. Just a song about Godzilla smashing up Tokyo set to some pretty fun music.
Sure. But as someone who used to work IT with a focus on cybersecurity, physical access to anything trumps everything else, and people who put fax machines in insecure locations will also put email servers or whatever in them. Also throwing data at misdialed numbers is a tiny threat because the odds of transposing a number or whatever and also getting a fax machine are pretty tiny.
Although the guy above you was just talking about how he works in the industry and they mostly do efax now, which… Iono how that’s supposed to be more secure than just email or whatever. I guess if you’re sending to physical machines it’s more secure on that end, but if the senders are using efax some of the receivers prolly are too, at which point we’ve lost the whole point of using fax machines.
Interesting, how is eFax any more secure than email? The advantage of fax is it’s one machine to one machine, no possibility of interception without physically tapping the POTS line.
They’re common in the US too in doctors offices and hospitals because of the security requirements of transmitting patient records and such.
I have two, one is a bi- monthly movie club with friends where we focus on movies that have a lot to talk about (so generally artsy movies), and another monthly kung-fu movie night where we just hang out and watch people beat each other up for fun.
Ty and That Guy. They mostly talk about movies, especially 80s and 90s movies, and that’s my jam.
Yeah, Microsoft came to bargain, but I came to flip 'em the bird cause I already switched to linux.
That’s fair, taste is subjective and formed for lots of reasons, I’m not telling you you’re wrong or anything.
Fair enough, to each their own. Although brutalism is more than just exposed concrete, that is definitely the signature thing.
It’s architecture/interior design, taste is subjective. Like what you like, I’m not here to yuck anyone else’s yum, just expressing my own opinion.
I was thinking the tacky, overly-ostentatious decoration style you see in Russian government buildings, but yeah that fits too.
Fair enough. I also love it for office buildings and such, like in this example from The Oldest House in Control, or Luthen’s shop or Coruscant in Andor.
Iono, the first two are a bit much, but I do love the 3rd.
Yeah, art deco is definitely high on that list. Also brutalism. I especially love brutalist interiors.
But I’m not running, I’m just a tourist!
That sounds like a big increase in pain-in-the-ass for not that big an increase in savings. I’m happy to trade money for convenience on this one. ;)
Lunch meat. I eat sandwiches every day for lunch and I have tried all the discount store brands for various types of ham, turkey, and chicken, and it’s all pretty shit, so I’m quite happy to pay the buck for the Hillshire Farms stuff cause it’s the best.
Fly everywhere. I’m having breakfast in Paris, lunch in Cairo, and dinner in Kyoto, and checking out a bunch of other places in between. Also doing approximately all of the cocaine so I can stay awake for the whole thing.
Huh, I didn’t think about that. But I can just install uBO and disable the built-in ones if it ever becomes a problem, right? I thought I saw an option about disabling them.
I loved loot that body 🤣
