[@beybladesinmyheels1267]

I always thought the idea of a pot full of honey was flawed due to its space consuming shape as opposed to a cylindrical can or something akin to a keg, more so along the lines of a coffee can.thank you for your video, very informative.

[@lyrqk5829]

I assume they're shaped like that for easier handling/tying with string/whatever, as are other jars and pots. It's probably important for liquid containers to be an easily holdable shape since they're heavier than dry product

[@Roadent1241]

Lyr QK Wouldn't they just have handles then??

[@simoncejka9121]

but then the handle could waste space when stacking the contaniers together (if on sides). Keep in mind that honey can crystalise so you need to have wide opening to get it out.

[@zadinal]

Making large pots in the past fully cylindrical was impractical, higher skill to make it right and higher chance of it getting fucked up during firing. If it gets knocked over you also lose all the contents whereas a pot shape retains a significant portion.

I know this is about honeypots but just needed to say this. Forwarding SSH to WAN is something I'd not do at all, no matter what account is allowed to login. If you have a server, just tunnel into the local network for ssh and everything else that is even vaguely security relevant. OpenVPN rules.

[@samuelfreeman5483]

@@gayusschwulius8490 yeah, but I hope it gets better. It really is a cool project.

[@gayusschwulius8490]

@@samuelfreeman5483 I honestly think that ReactOS is mostly a waste of time. The very talented programmers who run that project should rather use their time to improve wine. Pretty much the only advantage ReactOS has over wine is that you can run Windows drivers natively - in theory. But that means that you have to use a system that's basically Windows internally, which is so inferior to *nix system that it's not worth the hassle. It would be better to add a compatibility layer to wine that could do the same thing without making it a stand-alone OS. As it is, even if it worked as intended, there just isn't any good use for such a system.

[@thebuffman5597]

So... in short. It is like building a house without a door with a house inside with a door locked. The person goes in the big house easily and starts getting into the smaller house, but leaves because he can't. So you reinforce the outer house with a door that has a lock on it and bar the house inside. The person goes back and unlocks the door outside, but is stuck with the inside and tries to bring a hammer to break down the door inside. You meanwhile build a bar on the door outside and make the door inside be metal instead. The person goes, breaks the door outside and once inside, he cannot do anything, so he leaves and is afraid because he knows he was under surveilance so he leaves permamently. Then another guy comes around, but cannot even get through the first door, because now... it is made of metal too with a good lock and a bar behind it.
