I consider open source software to be community owned/maintained so I never liked the idea of selling the software. It makes much more sense to my eyes to sell services surrounding the software be it support, customizations, or even hosted services.

I can’t really get over selling a “license” for a software that is expected to still be maintained by unpaid contributors. Especially under an AGPL license where any licensing changes has to be approved by every contributors.

If the attacker search for your password specifically then xkcd themself posted the reason why it wouldn’t really matter

If you’re doing blind attemps on a large set of users you’ll aim for the least secured password first, dictionary words and known strings.

The part where this falls flat is that using dictionary words is one of the first step in finding unsecured password. Starting with a character by character brute force might land you on a secure password eventually, but going by dictionary and common string is sure to land you on an unsecured password fast.

That’s one of the reason I went with a PoE camera. Just make sure your network is isolated so people can’t connect to your internal network from the camera Ethernet cable.

See for me it’s the “you can now shut down your pc” message so I know I can shut down the uselessly huge toggle on the front of my tower.

It’s such a different type of stress (and job), people can find fulfilment in either of those while feeling overwhelmed by the other.

More hugging time with the dog. 10 years go by fast.
