Speaking of chairs at work, does anyone have a new Macbook? I have an M4, and I jumped on a video call with a friend this afternoon. But my video wasn't working.

Then I realized I had my laptop closed and was viewing our call on my monitor. Duh. So with the lid closed, guess what? No camera.

So I open up my laptop to activate my built-in laptop camera. But what shows on our shared screen?

My crotch.

I wondered if somehow my iPhone got activated as a remote camera, but it wasn't even in the room. So I fiddle with the video controls and discover that there is "MacBook Pro Camera". But what was activated was "MacBook Pro Desk View Camera".

I'm like wtf?

Turns out it's legit:

Apple built a dick-pic camera in its laptops. Legit! The MacBook Pro is now OnlyFans ready.

I honestly am counting the days when some Senator jerking off in his office gets publicly caught by this when opening his laptop on a video call with donors.
More like "Pro Deck View", amirite? :gsol:

Wings makes some really good points.

I have a few colleagues who went down the CISSP path, but my understanding is that cert is primarily for those aiming at managerial and strategic leadership roles.

So for a technical hands-on role (e.g. pen testing), OSCP appears to be well-regarded in industry.

Even if you already have the skills, having the piece of paper helps to "tick the box" for HR screening.

Also, I just wanted to share some exciting news. My wife and I are expecting our first child, a baby girl! She is due early April - we're both very excited for the next chapter of our lives.
Congratulations man!!
A friendly advice: encourage breast feeding. Good for health.
But also good for YOUR sleep. Obviously, you can't breast feed so you can sleep through the night.

When its time for a poopy diaper change, look busy and find something that has to be done right there and then.

This is probably gonna be a silly question but has something changed on here or is it me? Probably the latter. Whenever I quote a reply all I see is my message. I’ve tried to respond to some of you on here and just gave up trying. So apologies.

Sorry, I didn't like Cowboy Carter.

Florida has some damn good fishing.

Now the restaurants on the other hand, those are abysmal.
It only figures that more juventini than rosaneri were too slow and easy to catch. :cry:

Yeah, annoying but known issue. Depends on the browser/device too.

Visited a observatory tonight. What a experience. Really lucky with almost no guests and at a certain point just me and my kids. A absolute space nut volunteer worked there, a 21 y/o kid who left school without a diploma but memorised every star you could possibly see. He would navigate us with a laserpen throughout the heavens and then point his telescope towards it to show remnants of supernova, binairy stars, dust clouds, name it. Only the Andromeda Galaxy wasn’t good visible due to clouds, but at least we saw the core of it. Im really impressed by that dude, sad that he won’t reach the real scientific work due to the lack of a diploma.

Brian Cox and Lee Cronin have really caught my attention lately. Have you learned about Lee’s paper on assembly theory? Amazing imo.

and now Cox has shifted his focus to black holes which 10x my interest and learning

Nice! I was just at the observatory in LA last weekend but the motor that opens the dome wasn’t working so we couldn’t see through the telescope
