I guess I could install Ventoy on the raspberry Pi’s SD card, but I prefer it to be bare, since the idea is to keep it simple.


I think the best course of action is to find an cut the antenna or it’s trace on the board (and verify). Sounds a lot easier than it is though.

edit: or also pull the modem fuse, if it has one


Also, horse is bigger/more visible to cars, and maybe could be in the street. So you may not have to wait on traffic crossings as much depending on the area.

I still choose e-bike because poo, but what a looney idea, I love it.


(Area code) 867 5309

It already has an account, and nobody who gets that number keeps it for long, it may not even be assigned anymore because of how much spam it probably receives.


Pay cash when available, keep cards for when it’s not or it’d be a hassle (your discretion).


Spray paint until it stops getting replaced


It at least used to be adaptive because at one point it went to 500$ for me, then changed back down a couple months later.


For privacy.com:

  • great for anyone in the USA
  • don’t worry about difficult subscription cancellations again, just turn that one’s dedicated card off
  • I have personally blown past the daily spend limit of 250$ without issue, idk if that limit is real. The 1000$/mo may be though I’ve never hit that.
  • I’ve used privacy.com for everything from Amazon to car insurance to gym memberships.

On credit freezes:

  • a freeze means that your consumer report will not be shared, which means applications for credit in your name will be denied
  • all USA consumer reporting agencies (data brokers) are legally required to freeze sharing of your reports for free upon your request
  • you can temporarily unfreeze when you get a new credit card, apply for rental property, etc.
  • don’t let them upsell it or try to direct you to another page with similar language, it is free
  • credit monitoring products need to request your report to see if any new accounts have opened. Don’t monitor it, prevent it by freezing the reports
  • freezes are required for any data broker, not just credit. This includes LexisNexis (job history), and presumably the ones that do rental and vehicle ownership history though i don’t know their names.

My favorite was the password set screen allowing up to 64 characters, but login fails if the password is over 32 chars.


To help with this in the future, you can also create several fake results sharing your real name. Stuff like a blogger with one post not in your writing style, etc… This will dilute searches with disinformation. Removal of real data is important, but you can also confuse anyone looking.


Password Entropy = length * log2(possible_chars). So this would actually add 7*log2(10) => 23 bits of entropy, assuming the attacker knew that this section was numeric, or ~45 bits if they didn’t.

For anyone curious: Current best practice is a minimum of 100 bits, or 16 characters assuming only letters, numbers, and special characters. The recommended minimum bits increases every year with computing power.
