So, no… but also yes.

You’re correct that it’s unlikely that the device connecting to the network would be able to reach the outside Internet, but it would still be able to reach any local resource to itself, which is to say any other device which is in its network segment and also in the same state (DHCPless) that it is, via what’s referred to as a link-local address. These are in the 169.254.x.x/16 or fe80::/10 space and allow devices to self-assign addresses independent of upstream connectivity for communication on the local network segment. Usually, these aren’t useful, but these address are consistent, and can be used to directly contact known local hosts from your machine without DHCP. As to whether or not they can reach upstream hosts in this state, the answer is ‘probably not’, but that’s not the same as what you said.

That’s what the headline was about?

At least in this case, most TSAs are intentionally trying not to see those

I am Jack’s complete lack of surprise.

DNS being down is why the DHCP server didn’t start ;)

And no matter what happens, ticketmaster loses.

That is not what that means, it means there’s no dhcp on that network segment.

Bad

That this has all of a sudden occurred, and so consistently, is in some ways more frightening than the headlines on their own.

It’s rare that the business would give them the slack to be able to, usually there’s plenty of intent

For parody it would have to be untrue, yes?

Even if it’s obvious, it’s still important to say

A mesh system isn’t, strictly speaking, needed, but turning that extender into a first-class participant in the network is. Swapping the extender for anything that can broadcast an ssid (Access point or any home router) and extending the wired network to it (cat5/6 across the attic/crawlspace ftw) would also resolve the problem, albeit exchanging the cost savings of not buying a full mesh system for labor installing the new wire.

I will admit that it took me far longer than it should have to realize that you meant season 3 and not an s3 bucket.

A Chicago resident would be an expert in shit pizza after all

'The wind keeps blowing my wifi signal away ’ is more than enough information to diagnose the problem, and ‘the computer forgot my password’ is now a real thing since password managers started coming baked into browsers.

We are so far beyond parody of ourselves that i have no idea how the onion stays in business.

I think you may not have the context from that gif. The animal wasn’t actually coming right for them, or doing anything other than standing there, it’s just being used as a thinly veiled justification to open fire. This is a clip from another part of that episode with the context explained to the kids: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rTrMBI5fvfA

I think the joke here was that, like jimbob in the gif, Daphne wasn’t actually being attacked the Klanners at the time. The ‘its coming right for me’ is being used to justify killing the target(s), the ram(?) in jimbob’s case, the Klanners in Daphne.

Also like Jimbob, no crime was depicted in either image, only justified self defense as would be recognized by a jury of their peers.

EDIT: Jimbo not jimbob lmao

I think this one has legs, as they didn’t just fail to protect, but also prevented anyone else from going in.
