Did you bring an umbrella with you?

    I thought it was, but the rain was cancelled due to lack of precipitation. We may have an extra one to provide you. Try to remind us next time you're over here.

Noelle is going to the Steampunk convention. Don't know when, 'tho. Re: internet speeds. Yeah, his internet is about 40x as fast as ours. Damn him!
- RE: Only in your State website, Christopher May 24 13:51
  
  You probably have Memorial Day off so we can communicate before then about setting up a date/time for google hangout. It could be either Sunday or Monday. Since Alex has fast internet, his place seems like an ideal place to do google hangout. Plus, you can...

    OK, the Google Hangout is scheduled for 5pm PDT. So, Noelle and I will go to Alex's place by then.

      Alex reminded me that I forgot specify the day. The day in question is Sunday, i.e., today. So, today at 5pm PDT. We're gunna try using Alex's laptop for the hangout.

      Let us know if anything changes otherwise we will do hangout today at 5pm PDT. I might use my tablet for hangout.

  Definitely useful when the relatives come into town.
Re: Cameras are everywhere, Robert May 24 13:47

I see posts like this all the time on nextdoor.com . Noelle's succulents, along with the nice pots, were stolen a few years ago. I think a tortoise statue ornament was stolen a number of years ago. We have at least 2 neighbors on our block with cameras on ...

Good. Hope you had fun.
Re: Documents for Xander, Robert May 25 15:23

There are two ways. An easy way and a complex yet more secure way. a) Send a fax to my-2012-fax-number. In general, fax has more legal (but not technical) protections than email. b) Add a password to a PDF file and email that password-protected PDF file. F...
- Re: Documents for Xander, Robert May 25 15:26
  
  Actually, can you fax the documents directly to a human being at farmerinthedell? That would be even better.

      Really? Do you have GNU Privacy Guard (a.k.a., gpg)? Can you add my key to your keyring?

    - RE: Documents for Xander, Robert May 26 10:34
      
      Interesting. Well, you could try sending an encrypted message to me. Maybe it knows about public key servers (my key is posted there) and it will just do the right thing.
Re: [secure] RE: Documents for Xander, Robert May 26 14:38

OMG, this looks like crap. Completely proprietary. I bet it won't even work with Linux. Well, good to know, at least. Thanks for trying.

      He told me that he used the one-time passcode. Doesn't seem like an entirely secure system. (1) What if someone intercepts the email? (2) What if the keys that are stored on Macrosoft's servers are compromised or given to the government? There is actually...
    - Re: [secure] RE: Documents for Xander, Flora May 26 17:13
      
      I thought that he didn't. I probably should have sent the document to you! The method I used may not have been the most secure, but at least it was encrypted - initially.
    - Re: [secure] RE: Documents for Xander, Robert May 28 09:35
      
      For future reference, you should install 7-zip. See this article: lifehacker.com for the link. 7-zip works on Windows, Linux, and Mac. It's probably easier than trying to add a password to a PDF file -- at least, on Windows.
    - Re: [secure] RE: Documents for Xander, Robert May 28 09:44
      
      Also, you should install . After you install it, you should: 1) generate a 4096-bit key for your primary email addresses 2) post your key on a public key server (they call them "certificate servers") 3) import my public key from a certificate server (just ...
    - Re: [secure] RE: Documents for Xander, Robert May 28 10:12
      
      In addition, after generating your key, you may want to install these addons, depending on your browser: mozilla.org google.com

      To play it safe, I would not include the password in an email. Just call the person and tell them the password. Alternatively, you could make the password a fact known only to the two parties and give a hint what the password may be in the email. Obviousl...

  I double-checked. It definitely doesn't work on my Linux machine.

      I tried using it on my Linux machine on Chrome. It kept giving me an error and never showed your message.
    - Re: [secure] RE: Documents for Xander, Flora May 30 12:52
      
      Ah. Thanks for clarifying. One of my federal contacts at work can't open my messages. I thought it was because they weren't going through the whole process, but maybe they really can't open them.

To be honest, I'm less worried about the liars than I am about the ones that do nothing and don't even try to stand up for anything.

will you be home for din-din?
Re: will you be home for din-din?, Robert May 27 17:09

Cool.

  BTW, (1) I ate out for lunch and (2) so did Alex (separately) and he has leftovers.

Yeah, I definitely plan to vote for Jill Stein if Bernie doesn't become the Democratic nominee. No Hillary for me.

Dynamic DNS, Robert May 28 14:27

lifehacker.com I remember looking into dtDNS and it looked pretty reasonable. On the surface, DuckDNS looks good. Also, you'll need to make sure you can actually access (say, via ssh) your laptop. Many ISPs (e.g., Comcast) block a number of incoming ports....
