Fish tape and a cheap endoscope are the tools you want.


Not quite the same thing but Barrier and Synergy can make two computers share a mouse and keyboard multi monitor style over a network (ie, you they switch when you mouse over the edge of one screen).


Tried it. Couldn't get it to work reliable (something with it getting stuck to one or the other? I forgot). Latency was noticeable but OKish.

Thanks for the suggestion tho.


From what I understand as an observer the FAA rules make it basically impossible for a working pilot to seek mental health care (even for an acute issue like a death in the family), because the potential cost to their career is so high. Isolation and self medication at the hotel bar, here we come.


Fundamentally, the issue is that the FAA's model of mental health doesn't try to help pilots in distress keep flying; it tries to identify problems and get them out of the sky. So of course pilots will react to that threat to their livelihood (and way-of-life; there's a lot of personal pride wrapped up in the profession) and avoid honesty. Honesty becomes the self-destructive strategy as long as the FAA is willing to use what is discovered in therapy to clip wings.

It's a real hard corner they're painted into on this because they ultimately don't know what makes a pilot snap and decide to kill a planeload of trusting passengers.


The FAA's model definitely provides disincentives against getting help or a diagnosis, and this applies to mental and physical illnesses. I know that some pilots refuse to go to a physician (outside of the FAA-mandated physicals) because one diagnosis, even if it ends up being a false alarm, could ground them, potentially forever. Spend years getting a private pilot certificate, and/or decades working your way up to the airlines--who's going to risk having their family doctor one day say "hmm, that sounds weird..." when listening to your chest?


It also allowed a lot of young people (ie me) to learn to make legitimate looking GUI programs without a difficult barrier to entry, on whatever windows machines our schools/houses had lying around.

That and Delphi, how I miss you.


No wireless. Less space than a Nomad. Lame.[1]

Darknet guerilla marketing. Definitely seems to have worked.

Now we need the SEO content side: "How we hit Google with 398M RPS".

"... you can do this manually, but our product makes it as easy as a sign up and API call. Talk to us about pricing. [Python API example].


Also most receivers for super economically important things like a avionics or marine navigation, but shutting off WAAS specifically (augmented accuracy data for GPS broadcasted using a much smaller set of satellites) would affect air traffic that need it to land in low visibility at an increasing number of airports.

Though, to the OP's point about GPS, WAAS is operated by the FAA, so it isn't clear to me whether not passing the defense authorization would affect it in the near term.


If they stop paying the ATC controllers, there won't be any planes needing to land. So no problem! /s


As someone shopping for physical 2FA tokens right now, do you have any recommendations?


YubiKeys.

Just use FIDO2. I have no idea why OP is trying to use the YubiKey OTP protocol, which is legacy.


I wasn't trying to use it, I was just looking around and came across the "YubiKey Personalization Tool", which doesn't show anything about FIDO2.

Now that FIDO2 has been mentioned as something that solves this issue, it turns out there's another tool called the "YubiKey Manager", which allows you to configure/toggle various "applications" on a key, including Yubico OTP and FIDO2.


YubiKeys are fine, just avoid their proprietary OTP thing. They're fairly configurable and also do FIDO/WebAuthn, as well as TOTP/HOTP, PGPcard and PIV.


I like my OnlyKey.

Thanks so much for building it! My non gaming use case is scientific research, processing massive images and 3D renders coming off microscopes. You need high image quality, low latency, and often accelerated graphics, which VNC etc al are maximally bad at, but sunshine/moonlight let me run the GUI tools I need on a high performance cluster and access it from my laptop.


Makes me wonder if there would be a way to pollute imagenet so a particular image would always match for something like a facial recognition access control system or the like. Maybe adversarial data that would hide particular traffic patterns from an AI enabled IDS would be more plausible and something the NSA might be interested in.
