Me: "Hey I just thought you should know... I uh.. I found out that your wife is gay"

Her: "Well I hope so, I married her, after all"

Today I woke up in bed surrounded by soft friends (including @kelseyhusky who was in a ✨plush✨ husky mood YAY) and I just snuggled them all for like an hour and it was the best thing. :D

Is anyone aware of trans friendly housing services in Houston? Plz boost.

Equifax: We Can Monetize People's Security Needs Against Identity Theft ™

@ThatDamnCat Equifax's services are very useful if you want to spread your identity around to others

@ThatDamnCat They claim the site was broken earlier today and that folks got inaccurate results, too: krebsonsecurity.com/2017/09/eq

If you've ever used any online service Equifax provides, I'd just assume you were breached if I were you.

@Trev@icosahedron.website @goatmoat I'm no attorney either, but I've seen blanket anti-litigation clauses like this before and they almost always turn out to be unenforceable. Not always, but damn near.

As for sources:

• New York Attorney General Eric Schneider: "This language is unacceptable and unenforceable. My staff has already contacted Equifax to demand that they remove it."

• Another (search the page for "lawyer" to see Attorney Alex Southwell's statement): money.cnn.com/2017/09/08/techn

@goatmoat Yeah-- @Trev@icosahedron.website mentioned that too; here was my response to him:

Several attorneys have pointed out that such a clause is not enforceable and publicly demanded that Equifax remove it from their site. It's all part of the scam.

@hax I'd be okay with blowing up the creditor buildings. They are the closest thing to the physical manifestation of classism in modern society and I can't imagine anything but positive results in the long term from their complete annihilation.

PSA on the Equifax breach:

You can enter most anything into their "check if I've been breached" thing and it will say you've been breached.

The whole site they set up is just a scam to force people into signing up for their "identity protection service." You get a year free but you better believe they'll start charging you for it after that, and the opt-out process is never easy.

Don't buy into it. Just keep an eye on your credit report and credit/bank account statements.

Work & Servers: Console Abuse 

In case you wanted horrible console commands that return stats from Redis servers for monitoring:

# kbps out
echo info stats | redis-cli | sed '1,7d' | sed '2,20d' | sed -r 's/.*instantaneous_output_kbps:([0-9\.]+).*/\1/g'

# kbps in
echo info stats | redis-cli | sed '1,6d' | sed '2,20d' | sed -r 's/.*instantaneous_input_kbps:([0-9\.]+).*/\1/g'

# Connected clients
echo info clients| redis-cli | sed '1d' | sed '2,10d' | sed -r 's/.*connected_clients:([0-9]+).*/\1/g'
