system disk encryption is possible, yes.

here in the boonies, every cellular carrier, every internet provider, every--everything... goes out with single fiber cut. even cable tv goes dark since they took out local headend here (connected now via fiber to a town an hour away).

except for POTS, and the voice and data carried on it. when the whole town gets cut-off from the outside world for a whole day or more, which has happened four times in the last four years. the good ol' shitty telco is still going; their cables are separate, and go entirely different directions out of town.

that's why we still have a landline at the office; having a line-powered phone for when the power goes out (also not uncommon) is just a bonus.

it's nypost, did you expect accuracy?

company that profits from porn piracy sues for piracy of porn.

'unwelcome'. of course. but this is no surprise. they jacked-up rates for new subs nearly a year ago, while leaving existing ones alone. that reprieve is now over.

it had to be politically motivated. even elon must be smart enough to know that kicking the kid off twitter wouldn't stop the tracking of his plane.. which is still readily available via multiple sources. he could have been dumb enough to spend $billions just to steal the @x handle though.

fate be a cruel mistress. won't let me go, gonna make me suffer for decades more.

my co-worker wants an ota dvr. what one do you have? and is it easy to use for someone that can barely navigate a tv menu? ease of use and minimal internet bandwidth use (they use a 'jetpack' with crappy signal for internet at home) are their main requirements.

anything 4:3 seems 'old' these days.

during covid, the state here didn't even require a driving skills test to get your license.

gotta jack the price up again to afford more price stickers.

i got suckered once on a different site that got shut down. never again.
