Not if you change this setting.

And isn’t public WiFi more of a security issue than having your own carrier?

If you are an old programmer/geek young people will dismiss you even though they don’t even know what a folder is. They think they are IT experts because they can apply the latest instagram filters to their photos.

Good point. Maybe fix the typos in your first paragraph so that readers are not discouraged from reading the rest. The first comma needs to be a period too.

Sorry to be pedantic but your message is rarely raised so I/want want to ensure it gets attention.

That’s good!!

A grumpy curmudgeon like me? You must be crazy!

Groucho Marx - “I refuse to join any club that would have me as a member”

It is delusional to think the chances are good of a neighbor just looking up the map and joining in. Geeks need to talk to people in real life, especially in their neighborhood. Team up with at least one other person. Use word of mouth. That is effective change.

Unfortunately I live in a remote area with non-tech people who are not conservative enough to be preppers. I will still run it past them though.

One in your state? Wouldn’t you need one in your line of sight?

The map does not say if a node is high unfortunately.

In NSW Australia there are hardly any two near each other. What is the point of all these people even buying one if you don’t team up with at least one neighbour?

Even a stopped clock…

It was the coalition which prevented the digital identity bill mandating that the ID be compulsory.

From the article: the gas corps “transfer their profits offshore to minimise their tax and pay no royalties”.

But that is a conservative paper. The reality is even worse.

AGL has been listed in Australian Taxation Office (ATO) transparency reports as one of the large companies that paid zero income tax in certain periods, such as the 2021-22 and 2023-24 financial years.

Thanks to both of you. Never heard of it before. Might come in handy when I make music. Have a fanless (ie silent) laptop under which I place picnic ice bricks. Controlling my desktop (sunshine) with the laptop (moonlight) might be better.

Yes I meant functionally ie I meant remote desktop generically rather than RDP. Can I think of sunshine & moonlight as just another alternative to VNC (except better performer?).

When you say stream you mean remote desktop, right?

I don’t understand your logic. There are many laws which continue to be broken (and punished) but that doesn’t mean we should not have laws.

Whether this one is a just law is another question.

Increasing the weight of the car by 2x increases the road damage by 16x.

Yes but you need access to the culprit’s computer for the lag measurement.

It wasn’t the lag from the employee’s computer to Amazon which was being monitored.

It was the lag from the hacker to the employee. Amazon could not have monitored the hacker’s computer.
