Fun fact: if you don't take the lamp from this chest and go through the escape sequence, the chest in Zelda's cell which normally has 5 Rupees contains the lamp instead.

"Probably, but I have several questions."

  • Were you always a doorknob, or is this some kind of witch's curse situation?
  • If you were always a doorknob, how did we meet and what was our first date like?
  • If this is some curse, what did you do that warranted polymorphism, and how do we change you back. (Would you even want to go back?)
  • Could I be cursed to be the door that you're installed in?
  • How would intimacy work between us? I'm simply not creative enough to incorporate a doorknob into this
  • Being presumably immortal as a doorknob, or at the very least having a much longer lifespan than us mortals, how would you move on after old age claims me?

I maintain that this should be the default behavior and the AI be opt-in

It usually happens in 2 steps.

First step is that everything gets connected to the LAN and you can only access the PLC network from within the building's network. Then some time later, management finds out that keeping someone on-call to go out costs a fortune, so they request that access be made so they can make the change from anywhere.

The IT team argues security, but no new hardware can be provisioned and a developing a new process is too hard. Then the magical phrase is uttered: "Just make it work". So IT punches a hole in the firewall, adds a NAT rule, and job done.

The specific advice they give is to disconnect all PLCs and only access them through a VPN, enable password protection and change the default passwords, and only allow IPs from known engineering laptops and other critical assets.

This is absolutely doable and any IT professional could manage this change. The only barrier that prevented this from happening before is that you need buy-in from someone with access to the purse strings

Industrialized dairy farms are highly automated and feature a ton of networked computer equipment to facilitate that.

This isn't some situation where a farmer rolls up to a cow with a bucket and a stool like the 1800s.

"Theorist". Jon Tron is a person with shitty opinions.

Although policing oneself to make sure that everyone in the memes one shares is squeaky clean and shares the group's opinion on all subjects is very strange behavior when the content doesn't also feature that opinion.

Robertsons are the Pinnacle screwhead. Torx and hex are also acceptable

To be fair, The Thing is an excellent movie
