in a perfect world, we would all be happy and agree on a utopian society. But I don't think I took the time to intro myself so I will.

I was born in 1968 to a middle class family in Southern California city. My dad worked full time and went to school full time which of course, took its' toll on their marriage. As I grew up so did my rebellious behavior and I started to rub my parents wrong starting about 10 as some kids do. Since now the divorce was final, I ended up in the usual custody mess and spent the one weekend a month travelling to southern California to visit my mom. through my high School years, I started to get my act together and graduated with a 4.0 GPA. I then belonged to uncle sam. I spent my first enlistment during the Reagan then Bush administrations THINKING, I was supposedly defending against communism and the Soviet Union. I've come to realize that, at 19, you think you know everything and don't know you don't know anything. the only really neat opportunity was when I got to see the wall go down between East/West Germany. I also reenlisted due to a poor economy here in the US during the first bush administration and then was forced to serve with the UN mission in the former Yugoslavia republic of Macedonia during camp able sentry III 1994-1995(early 95')

Then during a medical fiasco, I ended up being medically discharged and I started realizing that, life wasn't what I thought it was.

For the realm of political affiliation, I'm a Libertarian, I like small government and less intrusion in the lives of the people. I don't see much difference between the Democrats and Republicans (Republicrats) that, there are subtle differences. I know the democrats supported slavery and the slave masters, today; the Democrats still support slavery through dependence on the various social services. Things DO change however; ideals don't. Today, there's a false left/right paradigm and the subtle differences are the only way to tell them apart.

I enjoy football, Photography (when my health returns), reading up on bible prophecy and my family. As soon as my disability rating arrives, I shall be moving to a warmer climate.

I'm not feeling too well at the moment so I'll try to add more when I feel better.

Hi Chris, welcome.

You and I agree right there.

Btw, I enjoy Bible prophecy as well. It's very interesting stuff.

    • Zen Browser 1.21b by Razvan Serea Zen Browser is a privacy-focused, open-source web browser built on Mozilla Firefox, offering users a secure and customizable browsing experience. It emphasizes privacy by blocking trackers, ads, and ensuring your data isn't collected. With Zen Mods, users can enhance their browser experience with various customization options, including features like split views and vertical tabs. The browser is designed for efficiency, providing fast browsing speeds and a lightweight interface. Zen Browser prioritizes user control over the browsing experience, offering a minimal yet powerful alternative to traditional web browsers while keeping your online activity private. Zen Browser’s DRM limitation Zen Browser currently lacks support for DRM-protected content, meaning streaming services like Netflix and HBO Max are inaccessible. This is due to the absence of a Widevine license, which requires significant costs and is financially unfeasible for the developer. Additionally, applying for this license would require Zen to be part of a larger company, similar to Mozilla or Brave. Therefore, DRM-protected media won't be supported in Zen Browser for the foreseeable future. Zen Browser offers features that improve user experience, privacy, and customization: Privacy-Focused: Blocks trackers and minimizes data collection. Automatic Updates: Keeps the browser updated with security patches. Zen Mods: Customizable themes and layouts. Workspaces: Organize tabs into different workspaces. Compact Mode: Maximizes screen space by minimizing UI elements. Zen Glance: Quick website previews. Split Views: View multiple tabs in the same window. Sidebar: Access bookmarks and tools quickly. Vertical Tabs: Manage tabs vertically. Container Tabs: Separate browsing sessions. Fast Profile Switcher: Switch between profiles easily. Tab Folders: Organize tabs into folders. Customizable UI: Personalize browser interface. Security Features: Inherits Firefox’s robust security. Fast Performance: Lightweight and optimized for speed. Zen Mods Customization: Deep customization with mods. Quick Access: Easy access to favorite websites. Open Source: Built on Mozilla Firefox with community collaboration. Community-Driven: Active development and feedback from users. GitHub Repository: Contribute and review the source code. Zen Browser 1.21b changelog: New Features Updated to Firefox 151.0.4 Added 'Space Routing', a new feature that allows you to route links to a specific Space. To get started, click on the three dots in your Space name and click on 'Space Routing Settings'. Fixes Fixed extension-opened tabs not being created with the correct container (#14100) Fixed a bug with the Boosts editor having the wrong theme colors (#14099) Improved overflowing space icons being inaccessible and improved the feeling when hovering over them (#13747) Other minor bug fixes and improvements Download: Zen Browser | 89.8 MB (Open Source) Download: Zen Browser ARM64 | Other Operating Systems View: Zen Browser Home Page | Screenshots 1 | 2 | Reddit Get alerted to all of our Software updates on Twitter at @NeowinSoftware
    • I am currently using a 4tb stick in combination with a 4tb 9100 Pro. It's only been six months since I bought them but the 990 has already dropped 1% health. Fingers crossed it doesn't go any lower.
    • But it opens the floodgates to anyone who gets a refund instead of a replacement (since refund will buy you a 1/3rd of the capacity it did years ago)
    • He has planned to file a lawsuit in small claims court so it'll only be a $1000 lesson assuming he wins. That's likely a fraction of what Samsung spends on toilet paper on a daily basis.
    • Windows Server gets DNS over HTTPS (DoH) support by Usama Jawad For the past few months, Microsoft has been previewing DNS over HTTPS (DoH) for Windows DNS Server, touting it as a foundational upgrade for zero-trust enterprise networks. It essentially introduces encrypted, authenticated DNS for the networks rather than transmitting DNS traffic in clear. Now, the company has introduced the general availability (GA) of this feature. The GA of DoH encourages organizations to deploy the solution in production environments without implementing a new client-to-resolver architecture. DoH helps improve the overall security of the network and reduces the risk of spoofing due to its zero-trust design. This is a significant change because pretty much every interaction with the network requires interfacing with DNS. DoH offers several advantages over standard DNS traffic, such as encryption using HTTPS, preventing unauthorized inspection, man-in-the-middle attacks, and traffic analysis. Since it leverages TLS certificates so that clients can verify the identity of the DNS server, it prevents spoofing through this authentication mechanism. Additionally, it's built on the DoH standard defined by the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF), which means that it should work with modern RFC 8484-compliant clients. Finally, it integrates into the existing network architecture seamlessly and can even run in parallel with standard DNS, so that customers can migrate to the new technology at their own pace. Microsoft says that in the past few months of preview, DoH has become more stable, and customers can confidently deploy it in production environments with proper guidance. Microsoft has emphasized that migrating to DoH is necessary for organizations that are moving toward zero-trust DNS solutions. Windows clients already support DoH, but the latest availability on Windows Server provides encrypted DNS to all endpoints. The company has also mentioned that "while this release focuses on encrypting client-to-resolver communication, support for encrypted communication between Windows DNS Server and upstream DNS resolvers is planned for a future update." You can follow Microsoft's guidance to deploy DoH here, but keep in mind that you need a Windows Server 2025 installation with the latest Patch Tuesday updates installed.
