Nailed it!

Tasty

Mortadella just edges out prosciutto as my favorite sandwich meat.  Nice sub roll, mortadella, fresh mozzarella, roasted red peppers, olive oil and balsamic on the bread and a shake or two of Italian seasoning is in my top three.

In middle school, the home ec class sold a shit ton of them in the cooler months.

Working until the wife comes home is the usual plan.  She just called and said she has to stay late to finish a brief for Fed District Court. ( she's having knee replacement surgery on Friday so she needs to button some things up.)

Forever being adaptable, I used my supervisory authority and declared the work day over.  I though I had more left in the bottle than I did but good enough for government work.

That steak looks delicious.

I could get down on that.
It doesn't agree with my stomach, but I usually make a batch or two every winter.

I don't think I've had any since middle school.

I heard you like the dark wood.

Where is the leak?

Oof

No one likes Massachushits, why do the bugs get a choice?

I bet you could cut that shit down further with the bolo and cram a piece into a cardboard box or just Saran wrap it and smack a sticker on there.

That is a very serious question, some places is butting edge length others are from the farthest projection of the scales

The entire east coast from just south of Charlotte on up is going to slide into the abyss at some point and given your proximity to Massachushits, your state will be on the leading edge.

Cutting edge on these is ~2.75” and front edge of bolster to blade tip is 2.95” or so. The buyer is happy with those dimension. I’m going to shoot for exactly 2.9” from tip to bolster by grinding it just a tad shorter to give him just a little more factor of safety.

oh, that makes sense

said no one, to anyone from Illinois, ever

liar, there is no way she gave you supervisory authority over yourself.

Good to hear. I relocated two little ring neck snakes from the garage door area last night by complete happenstance. It isn't a regular thing... I think they came in through the crack I had left in the people door to let the extension cord pass while I was vacuuming the car. The garage door is only a couple of years old.

There was a tostiloco cart by my kid's school last week

I know it as both.

More fancy swine?

Cheese not rice.

Oh shit single swings of that bad boy?

then never enough if it is cheese

I love guanciale too. There was a place in Seattle that was doing experiments with it that were amazing.

Apparently they forgot to tell you not to drink it on ice though.

Nailed it.

My wife and I spent parts of our formulative years in several states most are the same but the states where we differ are OK and KY.

I learned about it as a kid in OK and I call it a Frito Pie

She calls it  walking taco.

Hey, take it easy there Pops.

No one follows the rule, just like no one registered their evil killing machines.

The last of it.  I'm pretty done with it for a bit.  Incredibly delicious and cheaper still than prime beef but time for a change.

Ah well that's acceptable then.

Yeah, they sold them at concession stands as a kid.

Seems fair to me.

And a cool Pic

I made some for a knife pic, last year I think

Valve cover gasket in an area that's already busy with intake manifold and hoses.

Pro move

Hahaha. Weird placement.

Although the cold Boba tea was nice.

Coffee shop, just a few minutes ago. There she was, gone.
Why the owner felt it was a good idea to go to the toilet, leaving her laptop in a busy room where it could be easily removed is beyond me. It was made worse because when I peeked around the screen, it was also not locked.
With so much hubub going around the security community at the moment around security awareness the lazy conclusion would be that all users are idiots and need their hand held all the time before they hurt themselves with their private data. Of course it is never that simple, even if users are all idiots, but it is no less infuriating to see this kind of attitude in practice. Where do we go from here in trying to avoid this?
I know people that think you should take your devices everywhere, especially the bathroom, call it the shitter surprise. It really does make sense. When in a public place such as a cafe, train, strip club, etc. and you need the toilet or a break, take your equipment with you! It is a simple phrase that sticks in the mind, makes you smile and therefore might actually make someone change their behavior.
On the subject of humour, there was a cartoon very recently that summed this up perfectly. But no time for that mid ramble.
The point is that this individual who left herself logged in could have had untold damage done to her personal and professional reputation if I was so inclined. Facebook posts, Tweets, work emails, Amazon orders, OnlyFans rep ruined etc could all potentially have caused her grief. Sure, after the fact she could probably “tidy up” the mess, but why put yourself in this position? Lost subscribers are hard to get back. The public is fickle.
In the security awareness debates, system design is often touted as the way ahead, and in actual fact I think this may have come to the aid of our hapless coffee drinker, if she was lucky. The laptop itself looks like a new Mac Pro. That would mean FileVault is installed, although not enabled by default. If it was enabled and I ran out of the cafe with her laptop chances are when I sat down at the nearest park bench to check my prize the laptop would have locked and required a password. There is a good chance there that her data would be secure and encrypted. The same would be true if it was a newer windows laptop. The problem here though is that the key phrase above is “not enabled by default”. It’s great these operating systems now come with encryption built in, but there aren’t even annoying prompts a la Microsoft that, for instance, I don’t have an anti virus program installed; it is left entirely to the user to be educated and security savvy enough to enable it. I have joked before that encryption today is at the same level of anti virus of twenty years ago (ahem, Dr Zhivago). Today, I would wager virtually everyone knows about anti-virus, and in fact it is often bundled and enabled by default on new laptops. (I am not going to take this opportunity to talk about the efficacy of anti virus as an endpoint protector, but in sum we are all screwed if we don't practice safe surfing). When will encryption become such a commodity that you are an oddity if you don’t have it? The time is now.
This isn’t a particularly racy topic, but it is one that is played out every day around the world. As every teacher will tell you, when you get the fundamentals right, the rest will follow far more easily. This person really should have known better, but when will we be at a point that she wouldn’t have had to? Is adding enabled encryption just one more step towards the nanny state taking over every aspect of our lives, or is it just best practice.
Feeling a lesson still needed to be taught, rather than stealing the computer, or ruining the person's digital life, I tripped a kid walking by who spilled his triple shot venti caramel oat milk latte all over the keyboard of the lonely computer. Kid looked like as big a moron as the computer owner, so win win win. Just stop Harold, too much fun will ruin you. And that's when we heard the smell.

Nice. The UV dye can be a real game changer sometimes, especially on stuff that's been leaking a while.

I wasn't picking sides, but sorry, that was pretty funny

That's enough bourbon for you tonight.

TL:DR. Let's get to the only info people here want to know.  WHEN are all of our new Shiros coming?

They say you're as old as you feel; so you guys aren't far off.

You should've received a email with tracking.

Mine'll be here Thursday.

What'd you guys get?

I don't know exactly which model.  WIC found someone slippin' with an unattended and unlocked laptop.  To teach her a lesson on how to better protect one's PII, he took trip through Recon One and bought us gifts.  So generous of him as usual.

We have multiple color dyes so we can dump them in different systems and see which one is actually leaking.

You'll have to wait and see.
