  • Yeah true. The way I see it, the ‘we’ in this case is a lot bigger than just the US. Anyone who pulls that off will instantly become not just an American hero, but a global hero. “We” is all of humanity.

    Like… in the 1930s, if some Ethiopian dude just popped up from beneath everyone’s radar and put a bullet between Hitler’s eyes, he’d be a hero everywhere, but especially in Germany.

    And as long as it’s been with no results, I don’t think there’s anyone in the US willing/able to step up, so in light of our (US) spinelessness, we (the entire planet) may be relying on importing those skills from another nation.

    Wishful thinking ofc. If justice, legal or vigilante, was going to happen, it would have by now.



  • The likelihood that you’re going to get caught anyway, this might be a better situation for an “act like you belong” approach.

    Hi-vis vest, hard hat, a ladder, couple safety cones, and some tools. Just waltz right up and run a half-inch drill bit through the lens. Pack up and move on to the next one.






  • A single scent: it’s a tossup between mesquite or coffee.

    A combination of scents hitting your nose like an olfactory blitzkrieg: that first step into an Indian restaurant when you get hit by a combination of different curries, naan bread, and the rest of their menu that they’ve been serving to customers over the last several hours.






  • most suggestions on here involve running unauthorized software or visiting sketchy websites

    Agreed, which I won’t be touching. That’s why I opened with the example of the Bing trick to scrub ads off of YouTube: fully compliant with company policy. HR, IT, and Legal could be watching over my shoulder, and I’d be inclined to show off that trick just so they could go back to their own workstations and use it. Zero risk to my career, zero risk to my patients, and zero risk to the company. Win win win. Looking for more tricks like that.
