You Get What You Pay For

Bought a cheap arse memory stuck for micro. 128GB for $40. Does it work? Hell yes it works. Formatted as FAT32. Format the fucker as EXT4 and you think it works? Hell no. Can’t find superblock. Can’t find this, can’t find that. Error error dead dead fuck you error.

I’m sending it back. I didn’t really expect it’d work, but I kinda hoped that maybe it would you know?

Idiot.

NSA

Find it hard to believe people are really shocked about the whole NSA thing. Really? You’ve worked in tech for that long and it’s a shock?

I’ve seen enough “extra super privs” commands on routers and the like to realise this isn’t new.

I guess it’s the shock of it being exposed maybe, but really? This sort of stuff has been happening for years.
