I agree.
Friendly reminder: deadnaming Twitter is not transphobic.
That's some bullshit.
Fortunately, virtual machines these days usually use hardware virtualization, instead of emulation.
Yeah, this. It would be tasteful to get a gift card to any local coffee shop, or Target, or one of those $20 Visa gift cards, though they have like a $5 overhead just to activate them.
Homemade pastries are a bit weird if you don't know someone that well, and store-bought pastries are hard if you don't know what they like.
The two outlets could be on different circuits, if for example one of them is connected to a switch on a lighting circuit.
Then, the cable will be powering one circuit from the other. A circuit limited to 20A could draw 40A before blowing, causing damage to the wires.
Someone might do some wiring work on the lights, and shut off the lighting circuit, and still get zapped (though most electricians would test it before touching it, since breaker labels are rarely accurate).
There are many creative ways to die to a cable like this.
But does your medical clinic do?
No, they don't, and it pisses me off. Every time I see it, I think, Well, there goes my medical privacy.
But where else can I go? There's only one health company in town, and they bought all the doctor's offices.
Who can I complain to? The doctors and nurses are visibly frustrated with Windows every time I see them use it. If they can't change it, how could I?
I can't answer why shoulderoforion feels that way about backups. But I can answer why I feel that way about email: Google is a bigger part of people's lives, and so is a more dangerous monopoly. Therefore, I pick Microsoft for email.
Tons of businesses have their email hosted by Microsoft or Google, and tons of individuals have their email hosted by Google. If you want to self-host email, as I used to do, you need to interoperate with both of them.
To send email to a Google-hosted domain, you have to jump through a series of increasingly obscure hoops. Not all at once -- they introduce new ones once every week or month. First, it will let your email through. Then you will get rejected with a URL for a new hoop. First, getting your IP address off a "policy block list", which is basically a preemptive spam filter for static IPs that have never sent any email. Next month, you have to do SPF. Next, DKIM. Next, you have to create a Google account, and do something with your domain while signed into that account. Next, your Google account gets banned without recourse, and you have to wait 3 months for it to be deleted to make another, and all your mail is rejected during that time.
To send email to a Microsoft a hosted domain, you have to first send email to that person, get shadowbanned by the server, verify that your mail did not end up in their inbox, nor junk directory, and then call them and ask to be whitelisted. Depending on the circumstances, you may need to do this for each domain you send to, or each email address. The method of whitelisting varies, because the error message varies. If you can't contact a postmaster at the company, get fucked.
This is absolute monopolization. The only way to play the game is with their rented game pieces. So you have to pick one, and you pick whichever one is less dangerous.
I'm using it in a business setting, and hate it. Our company has lost about a thousand hours of work from OneDrive corrupting git repos. Everyone at the company is aware that you must NEVER allow OneDrive to touch a git repo, but OneDrive keeps adding directories without consent or notification, so people's git repos keep getting corrupted.
Maybe it's the IT department, or maybe Onedrive just sucks.
As far as I'm aware, Trump plans to remove all immigrants, whether documented or not, and even green card holders. I don't think he will have much luck with it, but maybe I'm wrong.
Start applying for jobs outside the US. Finding a job is usually the longest part of moving.
You may want to try applying for citizenship at the same time, assuming you even want to stay for 2025-2028.
I'm speaking as a US citizen whose life would be improved by your presence in the US.
Sex change surgeries on minors aren't happening. This is a monster under the bed.
Why do conservatives never talk about the large number of gender affirming surgeries that people do on cis minors? Cisgendered kids are getting breast implants, and it's kind of a big problem.
Even if Trump doesn't abuse his power to escape this, he will die of old age before 4 years are up.
Don't quit. Government workers are entitled to more recourse than normal employees if they are going to be fired. Usually you can't just fire them for no reason.
Quitting would also prevent severance pay.
Sue for defamation. He called your work "fake jobs". Now his followers are threatening your life.
