In the gmail web client, I dont see an option to filter off headers. thunderbird lets you set up filters for custom headers, but it’s a bit more complicated.

TBH, i never used it to set up a custom filter, I just knew there were indicators I could use to figure out if an email was in fact a test

Apparently I’m both right and wrong.

At a previous job, there was a header. I can’t remember it directly, but lets say it was like this:

X-Acme-Security-Test: Authorized simulated phishing exercise conducted by KnowBe4 on behalf of Acme Corp for security awareness training and compliance validation

Apparently KnowBe4 lets customers set their own custom headers. So this was probably set by my company. And not something everyone will see.

But also, they set an X-PHISHTEST header. Maybe its a signed header, so they can cryptographically prove the test was in accordance with the customer’s request (this email was sent by us, but it uses YOUR private key, so clearly you were involved here, and we arent just scamming people, or otherwise allows you to validate it at the firewall/spam filter). This isn’t the header I remember, but apparentlly can also be used to detect them – the explicitly say not to do that, but here we are.

But if you ever get a knowbe4 phishing test, check the email headers. you’ll probably find something to key off of.

KnowBe4 includes a bunch of headers in the email, including a disclosure saying they have permission to run the simulated phishing test.

He’s not cheating. He is staring at other women, and she is changing hair color to match the women he stares at. Until it’s obvious he’s not just staring at specific hair colors.

Generating a list of books isn’t hard or impressive. Taking the known cover art for those books and displaying it in a layout doesn’t require fancy ai either.

Also not sure why you’d want this beyond just the list

Indeed. My point wasn’t that wind is better than solar. But having both is nice. Solar isn’t available 100% of the time, and if the periods of low solar are longer than battery capacity, then you wind up back on the grid.

Diversifying your power sources means that even if it’s cloudy, you still have wind. Is it a good idea financially? No. Is it a good idea if you are committed to the idea of maximizing time off the grid, yeah. Cost per kWh isn’t the only factor in why someone might want home power.

Might be nice to have both, to diversify

“But Apple did it with absolutely 0 consequences”

I don’t think it’s a super common sentiment across all crowds, but I wouldn’t be surprised if some groups see the benefits Apple got by switching and wanted that for themselves.

One of the benefits is only needing to have 64 bit libraries. With this change most people can drop their 32 bit stuff.

Bits are literally “binary digits”. So more bits means bigger numbers. The reason you get more memory, is because when the code says “put this data in memory spot (number bigger than 32 bits)” … you cant with only 32 bits. How do you represent that number.

Imagine that you want to put something in memory spot 150, but you only have 2 digits. You cant. Bumping it up to 4 digits, you can say “put this data in memory address 0150” and its fine. “bigger numbers == more addresses == more places to put stuff”

So anywhere you need a number bigger than 32 bit represents, you can either just use a 64 bit number, or do a bunch of shenanigans. Those shenanigans require extra calculations inevitably. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2,147,483,647 If youve ever seen this number before, it’s probably because of a 32 bit limitation. It shows up all sorts of weird ways.

Bigger numbers here aren’t about taking up more space, just representing literally bigger numbers. “9999” only takes up 2x as much “space” as “99” but it repesents a number ~100x bigger.

Sorry, I’m tired and rambling.

“and this is the pilot I keep screaming at”

Wait. Is the first word not an ing word? N is already on the board

Another solution I’ve played around with, but it didn’t work super well… would be krfb-virtualmonitor

KDE’s remote framebuffer tool for making a virtual monitor to VNC into. For me it didnt do what i wanted because I have 3 other monitors and I couldn’t assure that things would launch directly into the virtual monitor… and it doesnt support any sort of dynamic resizing… But there might be something there.

I also hope that this kind of stuff improves in the future because of the Steam Frame. In Tested’s video, he calls out that he can only stream games at 21:9 if his 21:9 monitor is on. And other VR friends have pointed out the desire to dynamically resize content in the headset. So maybe this will get better in the future.

For me the issue is that i have a OLED 21:9 desktop, and streaming to my Steam Deck risks burn in on my desktop, and annoying black bars on my steam deck… I’d love to just have a 1280x800 faux monitor to stream to my steam deck, nothing needs to be visible on the desktop (headless, like you want).

But anyway tl;dr - krfb-virtualmonitor vaguely worked but not for what i needed. Virtual monitors are definitely a possibility

This might not be what you want specifically, but this is the kind of thing that came to mind. Basically a stub that feeds EDID data into the GPU so it THINKS there is a physical monitor with any resolution you want connected.

There are more advanced models out there that will allow you to custom program the EDID that it feeds, so you can use higher resolution or frame rate or whatever.

The market demand they are filling is cutting in line. Every time a scalper buys an item, a legitimate customer doesn’t get it. So genuinely SOMEONE is not getting a steam frame because of a scalper. That’s how it works. The steam frames being sold on ebay aren’t just magically generated by scalpers, they are the result of someone else getting pushed out of line.

Supply isn’t increasing because of them.

That’s not true. He played path of exile. Or he paid someone to play on his behalf at least

For some people, the anticheat becomes the game.

I feel like I’ve heard stories about famous DRM crackers that don’t even play the games - the DRM battle is the whole point. And for some people, it’s not about cheating, it’s about beating the anti-cheat. It just sucks that when you beat the anti-cheat you have the side effect of ruining the experience for other players.

And also, some people are just REALLLLY pathetic and have to cheat at games to feel adequate.

AI, or photoshop.

If you overlay the 2 images over each other… not only are they from the EXACT perspective, the carpet hasn’t moved in any way.

While they may have done this, the before and after are the exact same photo.

And importantly, it seems to ship with mesa 26. Which fixes a DRM leasing, which means VR works. I was just able to play beat saber on my steamOS system.

I don’t view my home as an asset. But I also don’t consider it a public work of art. It’s for me. Caring about what others think only matters if I’m trying to improve the value of an asset. If my preferences are tacky that’s my problem.

The home assistant voice is the mic and speaker but isn’t a system itself. You attach it to your existing home assistant. If you don’t have home assistant set up you’ll want to look into that first.
