It’s mid-October and here in Upstate NY it’s been almost 80 the last couple days. It’s great on the heating bill, but damn it takes some of the fun out of Fall oriented beers.
Does anybody else feel it’s a bit of a coincidence that whenever you meet somebody with fibromyalgia (or one of those other made-up diseases for chronically lazy people) that they always seem to have a spouse/family/sucker who makes enough to support them financially? Lying in bed all goddamn day long while whining about it just always seems to be an economic option for these people, but maybe it’s just me.
I just remember that they hide among a bunch of pumpkins with only the painted parts showing to "trick" someone. Poor guy just thought he was fucking a regular pumpkin (as one does) and then they "surprise" him halfway through.
Okay, so it's my understanding that you must cut a hole in the pumpkin before you fuck it; so did he try cutting a hole first, or was he amazed that they already had holes? This raises too many questions; I'm just going to have to watch it...
I'm pretty sure that you would have to go to a different sort of website for that, but I'm sure it exists.
You sound a little too familiar with this... I just watched a clip of it, I seriously wonder how that guy was able to get hard to an ass painted like a pumpkin. They looked good before the paint, ridiculous after.
I bought a Fire tablet because it was on sale for $50, and it automatically connected to my Wi-Fi and Amazon account as soon as I turned it on. I assume that my Echo gave it the credentials. It freaked me out a little to be honest. Does it just hand out my information to anything that claims to be an Amazon device? Did Amazon push a notification to my Echo telling it to trust the new device? It seems like a huge security risk, and I can't find anyone talking about it on the internet except for a Amazon help page walking you through what to do if it doesn't work automatically.
I assume you ordered it from Amazon. They simply link it to the account it was ordered from and since your Amazon account already knows your wifi info it can connect as soon as it arrives.
That's what their page said, but I don't understand how they linked it. I seriously doubt that they opened the box and loaded the info onto the device. The only way for it to make sense is if my Echo is checking against a whitelist of some kind, but does that mean that anyone who spoofs the MAC address of one of my Amazon devices can just connect to my network?
The device is powered off in the box. Having had it for a few hours, I'm sure that the battery would be completely dead after a day on standby, and most of the Echo devices don't have batteries at all. It's almost certainly a white list. I just looked at my Alexa app, and it's listing the Echo Show that came with my Blink cameras that I've never opened.
It probably does a BTLE (bluetooth low energy) initial ping to the local area/environment, and your Echo tells it what it needs to do. The device needs to know nothing, other than "hi, I'm new, someone tell me what to do". Apple devices do the same thing, which is why they tell you to put your iPhone/iPad close to the new device so it can fire over the initial info it needs, including things like keychain values, etc.
If you want to see more of what's going on, Bluepy is a pretty cool little toolkit to let you see what's going on in your area. https://ianharvey.github.io/bluepy-doc/index.html It'll help you see all the BTLE devices and follow along on the discovery protocol that they use.
https://ianharvey.github.io/bluepy-doc/scanner.html That code snippet there will output all the BTLE devices that are broadcasting in your area. I think most people would be surprised at just how many devices use BTLE for that kind of stuff.
