The worst part about it is that if they were actually good at that, they would be extremely valuable. Getting different, unrelated groups who all function in different ways pointing in the same direction is like herding cats, and cat herders are highly sought after in most industries.
It’s just anyone who’s good at it would never call it ‘synergizing paradigms’.
After a word from our sponsor
I can’t speak to previous versions of the hinge port, but as a network engineer who is constantly using it I’ve had no complaints with the one from my 2024 model.
I would be shocked if someone hasn’t shoved them into a local model somewhere, but all the big ones would filter them to death with content restrictions
No, because there wouldn’t be anything connecting the two ports together. In your scenario, all each side would be able to do would be to talk to ‘cpu’, there would be no mechanism to forward traffic upstream without iptables or something similar handling that function.
Oh, yeah, that’s probably the more logical explanation.
I don’t think that was them self-censoring, I think that was them failing to markdown successfully.
The fabled write-only system
Given the proclivities of Valve and their hardware so far, i woud expect the gabecube to not have soldered ram.
Yeah, I agree with ‘nuke first ask questions later’ when your compromised host is impacting other devices. If and only if i knew the attempts weren’t going anywhere or doing anything would I consider unicing the vm/container to see what happened.
I can’t even convince my spouse to switch to firefox to get adblocking back. Browsers are entirely transparent to most users :\
“Your attempts to make me more profit didn’t make me enough profit” is a wild basis for a suit, even in 2026.
This seems to me an application of the 80/20 rule. Valve (and its infrastructure) is taking it the last 20% needed to make it mainstream-viable.
Without having access to a known good connection (or known good setup) you can’t 100%, but if you can take packet captures at the handoff to the isp equipment and the far side doesn’t receive them, that’s a pretty clear indicator to me. At the very least it would be enough for me to reach out to them and ask what’s up.
Those are traitors and terrorists
That was not the order of operations for their grandmother
But adds significant additional cost and complexity.
With only a little bit of cancer and microplastics
The other recommendations are good, but please please double check your tstat wiring and/or HVAC system to ensure they are compatible. One of the few stats that work with my system without shenanigans is the Honeywell T10 Pro (which also worked out of the box with HA). This required me to rewire the control run to use it, and is not something I would recommend for people who aren’t prepared to cook the control board on their furnace if they do an oopsie or regularly read electrical diagrams.
