Yeah RemoteID is trivial to spoof using an ESP32. Most hobby pilots I know simply don't comply with RemoteID. And bad actors certainly won't purchase a $75 device to add to their drone.

It does become a bit more difficult with consumer grade off the shelf drones because it's built in. Still defeatable by the determined of course.

Do you have some impersonated artist names I would be able to look up? This isn't a thing I have (knowingly) run into on Spotify yet and I'm really curious to see more

The AirPods Effect 1 month ago

I wear earplugs and play music via Cardo while riding nearly every single day. It's fine.

Let's be realistic - noise cancelling isn't a perfect technology. I rode with my AirPods for a short period of time and could still hear everything I needed to. The only reason I switched is because they're uncomfortable in a helmet.

I know multiple people who have given their agents human-like names and refer to them as if they're nurturing a coworker. It creeps me out and I haven't really brought it up with anyone as I can't articulate why it gives me the creeps like it does.

They're not going to find out until I move out anyway.

Maybe. Probably, given what you've described. But you're still relying on an assumption and the behavior of someone else. It could be sold again tomorrow to an owner who has a real problem with those sorts of changes and it would be out of your control.

I think 2 things may be combined here.

'GitHub Enterprise Server' is hosted on your own resources, not their cloud. It makes sense that it wouldn't have the same downtime as their cloud, but that's hardly relevant.

'GitHub Enterprise Cloud' is their offering hosted on their own resources and what I suspect most enterprise customers use. It's what I at $extremelylargecompany use. It follows the same uptime/downtime as their public non-enterprise offering.

I've been using Pass4Wallet for the last few years to create Wallet entries for local clubs I'm apart of.

It's actually better than native passes in some cases because you can add custom info to the entry, like a gate code. It's really flexible in terms of barcodes, QR codes, etc as well.

Great app I'll probably continue using, I'm not confident Apple will allow the amount of customizability it allows.

That was my first instinct as well but I'm not sure how true it really is.

Many companies exist now whose main product is supply chain vetting and scanning (this article is from one such company). They are usually the ones writing up and sharing articles like this - so the community would more than likely hear about it even if nobody was actually using the package yet.

There is a massive difference between leaving the door open so people can come in and talk versus paying no attention to them commandeering your dangerous tools. Again I think you're overthinking it.

I believe you may be overthinking it a tad. I take it just to mean "work in the open".

As an example - at my home unless the weather is poor I always leave my garage door up when working on something, whether vehicles or other projects.

This is mainly for sunlight and fresh air but the end result is the same. Any neighbor or passerby can see what I'm doing, and in rare cases may actually be able to help or offer advice.

Most people don't intend to print tons every year nor desire to manage a print farm. Most people interested in creating object rather than managing printers will have an infinitely better experience getting a Bambu that is ready to crank out amazing prints right out of the box.

Other than basic troubleshooting (which they have documentation on) there isn't really a need to take a deep dive into how exactly each piece works.

I say this as someone who started printing many years ago with an i3 clone and has replaced nearly every piece of multiple printers (control board, bearings, hotend, extruder, etc!) over the years for better performance. I moved away from wanting to tinker with the printers and haven't touched them since getting a P1S years ago.

This became immediately clear to me over the weekend when I used Opus via API key. I had it review the code for my (relatively small) personal blog to create an AGENTS.MD - it cost me $3.26.

Most people, including myself, have no interest in jumping through such hoops to exercise a constitutionally protected right. We also value the ability to carry (mostly) anywhere we see fit for the purpose of defending ourselves in a worst case scenario.

My Homelab Setup 5 months ago

Also achievable with Tailscale. All my internal services are on machines with Tailscale. I have an external VPS with Tailscale & Caddy. Caddy is functioning as a reverse proxy to the Tailscale hosts.

No open ports on my internal network, Tailscale handles routing the traffic as needed. Confirmed that traffic is going direct between hosts, no middleman needed.

Just as an aside, you can put as much effort as you want in, there is no guarantee.

My identity was stolen to take out large student loans when I was 3 years old. I learned of it when I was graduated and was trying to take out loans of my own - it was a mess.

I certainly didn't do anything risky as a baby to result in my identity being stolen but it happened anyway.
