sounds like a mul-t-lock, but i've only ever seen those on mall shop doors and evidence vaults

my parents home has had a lock like that for at least a decade, in rural latvia. the only place that is able to forge a key like that is some fancy pants service centre in the capital

great channel for this conversation because every time he gets an unmodified lock more sophisticated than a home depot kwikset it's from a fan in Europe or Japan

Lock chattin': The the plug (the lock-pussy for the key-dick) on my trunk lock has become unmoored and is rotating freely in the cylinder. :(

mine is similar to this, but the key is about twice as long and ~50% fatter and filled with pinholes :v:
i'd post a pic of it but i'm paranoid and can't find a good pic on google images.

i'll be home in a couple hours and try to find the exact model

yeah, to get a new key made for mine i need the original key and a chip+pin style card that has some data on it, forging it without that is supposedly a gigantic pain and it's easier to just break the door and install a new lock.

cable locks are to prevent someone from just casually walking away with the laptop. hopefully not a threat model relevant to a workplace (other than a lovely coop space I guess?), but the durability of the thing you're attaching the laptop too isn't particularly relevant

neither is the durability of the cable for those same reasons, so i don't much care for the question

Has anyone come up with a way to detect the microcode support for Spectre mitigation on Windows besides the powershell module? My SCCM guys aren't pushing powershell version upgrades so I have a mixed bag of 5.1/5.0/4/3 and I think 5+ added the install-module cmdlet.

http://fortune.com/2018/01/09/wag-dog-walking-app-exposed-lock-codes/

A popular app that connects dog owners and dog walkers accidentally revealed the lock box codes of at least 50 users, and the home addresses of at least 100.

The information was posted on the website of Wag, an app that connects dog owners with walkers, the Wall Street Journal reports. The Journal said its reporters had viewed the records of more than 100 customers, including 50 lockbox codes, but that new records had appeared at least every day, meaning the total number could potentially be much larger.

i've never seen dimple keys used for houses or apartments in the US but i think that's more because they're a massive pain in the rear end to copy / re-key, i've seen them plenty of times for stuff like lockboxes or padlocks or w/e :shrug:

my apartment is an audi :smug:

i was at a hotel a bit ago where they still used keys. the keys themselves didnt have any teeth and looked sorta like key blanks. instead, they had a pattern of small circular dot indentations along the sides. it looked like theyd been in service for quite a while because the indentations were showing wear in the direction that the key gets inserted
