PuTTY has the additional strange situation that putty.org is higher in google's results, AND not owned/controlled by its author
I've always grabbed my updates from chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty - so I assume my porn stash is safe (:
so bizarre btw 'north korean hackers' is a thing now... I recall the days they had maybe a thousand computers in the entire country, and they were teaching stuff that was a good 20 years obsolete

@MiG well cryptocurrencies are a 'good' way to get through sanctions

they're probably also involved in counterfeiting foreign currencies - that I find more believable, different skill set
@JourneymanGeek reading that a bit less hastily now, "They sent the target a message over WhatsApp that transmitted a file named amazon_assessment.iso."
Who the hell opens iso (or ANY other) files from strangers over whatsapp? and more importantly, who the hell would want to work for amazon? o_O
lol
I've applied to AWS in the past :D
their money is as good as anyone's I guess
that said the AWS recruiter that contacted me was a jerk
MiG
MiG
@JourneymanGeek Yeah, but I imagine their employment conditions will probably not be great, considering how the already poorly paid people at the warehouses are treated :x
@JourneymanGeek lol
contacted me 3 times, and didn't actually yay or nay me till I asked
I think he was trying to meet a quota
I probably should have asked if there was somewhere I could complain
MiG

prob all under pressure in that company
it wouldn't be the first time I snitched on bad HR

MiG
12:30 PM
doing a mortgage thing now, and one of the advisors turns out to already commissioning things on my behalf without my consent... AND he sounds like a used car salesman, so that's probably a (hell) no from me
@JourneymanGeek you should, HR together with finance are probably THE support departments where you get assholes who get away with everything
Its a little late lol
actually the time I did it on SE's on meta
MiG
MiG
I mean if it happens again :)
sadly their HR policy seems to be "make new excuses not to hire geek" :D
MiG
MiG
it's a general thing with me... I just don't like bad people getting away with stuff
I get lol

bad/lazy... package delivery guy dumped a 100 euro bag in the hallway of the apartment building, also without any kind of notification... I found it when I walked out for an errand, but considering working from home there are entire days that I don't leave the house
I joke HR is for people who want real power

I wouldn't have known it was for me if I hadn't checked the address label
I really hope the new neighbourhood has those drop off boxen
@MiG no tracking?
MiG
MiG
the package delivery companies here are dragging their feet, you should be able to at any point before it leaves for the delivery route, switch out to a local pickup point... sadly some of them insist on a first attempt, and that's where things go wrong
@JourneymanGeek not always, depends on the shop
this was a bag directly from the manufacturer's site, they didn't give me a track and trace
@MiG ah
@MiG my local postie's 3 attempts, then you got 3 days to pick up
MiG
MiG
12:39 PM
if it's (ironically) amazon or any other dedicated shop, T&T is there, but depending on the service you may not be able to reroute to a pickup point from the get go
though I once had an 'attempt' with no tracking slip, and another one where they'd put it in the postbox (they need to leave it at the door)
@MiG ah, smaller place?
I get buying from them direct
MiG
MiG
I'd ideally like that to be zero attempts and instant pickup, now I have to sit at home for a 4 hour window (usually goes down to 2, but still), instead of just getting a message and at any time that is convenient for my schedule, make a stop and pick it up
@JourneymanGeek Herschel, pretty big backpack manufacturer
MiG
MiG
no complaints about them btw, I reported a minor defect to the closing mechanism (and expected a small part to be sent)... instead they gave me a full value voucher so now I have two backpacks :D
And I eventually managed to fix the issue as well (:

Q: How do I activate the additional key on a UK keyboard on an ANSI keyboard?

WilliamISO has one additional key in comparison to ANSI. Is there an easy way to access this additional key on a Chromebook UK layout? It is in the bottom left hand corner of this layout.
