In all my life as a computer guy (including a few years at an MSP where I saw plenty of ratchet stuff), I've thankfully never seen a 4 pair wire used like that. I've seen cat 5 punched down with just 1 pair used for an RJ11 phone jack (the rest of the pairs were unused.)

Because a local software vuln is much less scary, less exploitable, and more common than an exploit like PHP2Shell, which requires basically no effort to exploit a large chunk of publicly exposed webservers. Basically, local vulns have been a thing forever and GP is off topic.

Yes, let's combine Twitter, an AI company, and a space company with a solar company, car company, battery company, and robotics company, so that we can have one huge valuation that can't be possibly delivered upon and losses will be absorbed for a short period. What could go wrong?

You could use snapshots or whatnot to reset the state whenever you like. Using an LLM to clean up files often seems like overkill to me.

Did you mean "than"?

I love Linux (been using it as my daily desktop for decades), but we're a long ways off from a true Linux phone.

The Pixel 11s have been a decent downgrade from the 10s. You might want to consider getting a 10 or 10a while they're still cheap.

Regardless of a datacenter being for AI or not, NIMBY applies to everyone. I look forward to these totally probable datacenters in space.

It's a quote, and somewhat of a figure of speech. Also Charlie was born in 1924; he was literally of a different era.

I have a Unifi home network with two Wifi 7 access points and gigabit ethernet. For home automation, I went with ZWave and do not regret it at all. It's been rock solid and I've never felt the need to get a dongle to debug the traffic. I don't want to be working through all of the WiFi baggage with my home automation devices. I recently introduced some Zigbee bulbs (hue and cheapos from Amazon) and they've been mostly "fine", albeit with lower range.
