Yes, I know. I'm looking forward to it. I knew I was too old for the other one when they kept having ads for period protection on prom night. At that point, I thought that as an aging adult man, I wasn't their target audience.

The new buffy series will be out soon!

I thought I took that one down. Shoot, it's been off the air since 2007 I think. Ah, I see I didn't. Heh, may as well leave it for now.

I don't know that "The Buffy The Vampire Slayer QuoteGenerator" is looking awfully suspicious! ;)

I have a system that I updated to 15.0 with freebsd-update and then afterwords, used pkgbasify to change it to update with pkg. It's worked to get me up to 15.0-RELEASE-p2. After seeing the security update notices, I went to update by running...

I'm on regular wired internet with spectrum. Anyway, I've found my workaround though I mutter bad words when I have to reboot. :)

Where did you meet them was it on this website?

Actually this 'friend' is probably an agent of the company and helps people with their 'investment'.

Check also very good how the website looks. For instance , https://www.argentorshop.be/en/?gad_campaignid=17559461932 They sell gold. But the website looks professional, there is an address , e-mail address, telephone number.

You have any other information? What about your friend do they have any information about the conference you mentioned that was in the us? You said florida? I want to make some calls and figure out who they are.

The document is fake. See https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/10434907 not only does the company not exist but the company number is for a different company that's been dissolved.

It looks legit, but when you check the number, which you can, you see it is false.

To ditto what scottro said. My wife wrote a check a few months ago for something like $60 but our bank account got dinged for a few thousand. The check got "washed" and cashed by a different bank. Turns out the bank that cashes the check is...

Make a note of the subnet mask you got when you used DHCP. Use the same subnet mask, not /32. The /32 is fine on the alias. The thing about routing addresses is that they must be in a so-called "directly connected" network. It cannot be reached...

Yes, I think checking Contact information is important and if an address is shown, try to verify that it actually exists.

In the Netherlands correspondence from the Dutch Tax authority (belastingdienst) comes in a distinct blue coloured envelope via snail mail.

It's an X11 problem.

Reading is required: edit the first post, change the prefix to "solved", save.

With a DHCP server you can allocate a specific IP address by MAC address Under dnsmasq you can use something like this:

As someone who got scammed, I would suggest that you don't trust anyone, irrespective of how helpful they appear on WhatsApp or wherever and do everything to check the veracity of any websites mentioned. Check where the host is registered, check...

So basically this thread has hints to others that may be in "early stage" of scam that will let them avoid it? That does not seem to be a bad thing

Don’t tell me what to do 😉 The OP isn’t wasting their time there’s plenty they can do. The fact that you can’t see that says more about your perspective than theirs. Your attitude comes across as unnecessarily harsh and dismissive. Instead of...

I mean the numbers.

You're probably going to get the same assigned IP from DHCP, so just configure both addresses statically. Keep in mind that you will need to configure defaultrouter too, and set DNS correctly in /etc/resolv.conf.

What are both ip's?

Humans made compilers... so why would AI write human readable programming language code at all? I mean it's "AI" -- why not just output pure binary 0s an 1s that only AI and computer chips understand? Why does AI even need to use a "flawed...

Thanks. My switch isn't a bridge and I'm finding that I have to destroy the switch, recreate it, and, if it doesn't allow me to add it to my card, (which seems random) I usually can manually add ports_public="re0" It seems that it is a bhyve...

Made a quick PCVR set-up; installed Fedora on a USB SSD, it booted and updated; installed NV drivers, Steam, and surprisingly everything works well with good performance :D View: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p7QedsYJEto It'd be cool for...

This the workaround to make the switch working again on bhyve-vm: doas vm stop [VM] doas vm switch destroy public doas vm switch create public doas vm switch add public ue0 doas vm switch address public 10.10.10.10/24 doas vm start [VM]

The credit card companies are quite often very good about that. I received a gift card, and at some point, checked the balance and it seemed like 50 or 60 bucks had been spent and I didn't remember it. I wasn't positive it wasn't me, but I didn't...

Logs appears to indicate that it's working on the Intel driver. Are you not getting a picture on the screen?

I made a literal general brainf*ck transpiler 'lgbt.py'. it converts brainf*ck source to Python,C,and the other languages with map, header, tailor file. Python, C, Ook's files are provided in the repository. Indents automatically. The name 'lgbt'...

Did you follow those instructions? Unplug the device and plug it back in. These rules are applied when the device is attaching. Then check if the permissions have been properly applied to the corresponding ugen device. If not, double-check the...

There are two options to grant normal users permission to the scanner: Option 1 (best suited): set permission to the USB device nodes of the DVD drive and scanner the normal user can access /etc/devfs.rules [localrules=5] add path 'usb/*'...

Digital preservation communities mainly. (I chance upon them occasionally in the various DOS forums more than anywhere else) I also recommend looking at digital wargaming communities. So many were written in fortran77 back then. At work we were...

Thats not true. I find it kind of funny, and im not trying to be mean here. I really dont. Its just, FreeBSD forums should be for technically savvy people. And yet, here we are discussing typical internet scams that usually happen to absolute...

If it's working well, then it should be reasonable. It's possible to install multiple kernels side by side. From pkgbase: pkg-unregister "FreeBSD-kernel-generic", rename /boot/kernel -> /boot/GENERIC, install "FreeBSD-kernel-tst01d"...

I've used both intensively for many years and have never experienced any stability problems.
