Lowe’s uses a customized Linux distro for their department terminal computers. Most of what you do is in browser or terminal applications, if genesis is still in use.

Umami has been pretty good to me. Plausible was a close choice but I ran into technical difficulties getting it going.

I didn’t get around to trying it, but goatcounter looked promising as well.

Classicube for that simple block-building itch

Nintendo made no legal demands nor threatened to sue any involved party, their letter just formally requests that dolphin wouldn’t be published on steam.

Unless they are permanently only using specific addresses or blocks and will never change that up, I’d consider it a moving target.

A flatpak of the snap, running in a docker container inside a vm for maximum security.

Checking ip ownership is a moving target more likely to result in outcomes these sites don’t want (accidentally blocking google bots and preventing results from appearing on google).

Checking useragent is cheap, easier, unlikely to break (for this purpose, anyway) and the percentage of folks who know how to bypass this check is relatively slim, with a pretty small financial impact.

ok

Most sites will do live inspection of browser capabilities rather than using the user agent to grok capabilities, simply because user agent is hardly reliable.

I mean, almost all outreach is automated until you get to a meeting. The point of the post is to show that Reddit is reaching out, either intentionally (possible, based on the previous outreach) or unintentionally, to somebody that many companies would rather not do business with.

Because I wanted to share something I found humorous because of the context preceding it, but don’t have copies of that context anymore because it was so long ago.

They’ve aged out, I typically mark as spam and they’re deleted after 30d or so. It was essentially “hey Tate, love the content! Have you considered partnering with Reddit ads to expand your viewerbase?” And the follow-up was the typical “you haven’t responded, hope I got the right email!” spiel

The most interesting ones I’ve seen are from the likes of SAP concur, recruitment agencies offering developers, and private jet companies like Fly Alliance offering million dollar discounts on multi-million dollar jet contracts.

I’ve explained this in the description and various comments but I suppose I’ll repeat it here, but I have an email alias that is essentially almost a typosquat of one he likely does use, so some marketing company likely stuck it in their list on accident and fed it to loads of other companies.

This email is clearly automated but I did receive two more personalized outreach attempts last year, and I receive almost weekly personalized outreach from other companies due to the similarity in email. I know who they were intended for because they had a name set in the “to” field.

I’ve received a couple less cookie-cutter emails directly sent to this email alias with the name field set to “Andrew Tate” and references in the body to him. Unfortunately I tend to mark them as spam and move on, and they get deleted over time. Last outreach was mid last year from one of their sales guys.

Steams solution is about as simple as it gets. Install steam on both devices (or the steam link app/ a physical steam link box), pair controller, log in, hit play.

Steam supports fully remote play, you don’t need to use any wacky vpn workarounds

It’s crazy how easy this recent drama has made leaving Reddit for me. Saw all the user-hostile changes and just deleted my Reddit apps and have only been visiting it via google searches on very domain-specific knowledge.

Reddit has attempted, multiple times, to reach out to Andrew Tate to partner with him on advertisements, including twice while he was imprisoned.

I know this because their numbskull marketing folks can’t proofread the email address they’re sending outreach to, and I received the outreach emails as a result. Thanks, Reddit!

Thank you MargotRobbie, bringer of positivity and Barbie
