bobthebutcher··on Malware can turn off webcam LED and record video, demonstrated on ThinkPad X230
I think there was a long period where a proper PC would frequently have only the cheap stereo speakers which are small enough to far outperform raw microphone leads. But I'm not sure this works that well in >=HDMI even if some monitor speakers might otherwise be ideal.
bobthebutcher··on OpenWrt Community question: What do you want to see in OpenWrt?
Something vaguely equivalent to a liveCD boot mode? Every once in a few years I seem to take a leap with some device to see if I can convert it to OpenWRT or update it once I've done so but I'm always a bit stressed by uncertainty.

bobthebutcher··on Comparing AWS S3 with Cloudflare R2: Price, Performance and User Experience
If you want to hire someone to walk your dog you probably won't put an ad in the New york times to a head hunter that you will pay by the hour with no oversight and it would be totally unfair to that head hunter when you don't want to pay them for the time of all those interviews. But an infinitely scalable service you somehow can't put immediately terminal limits on is somehow fine on the cloud.
