I did some IT work at a hospital, patient records including names, addresses, conditions and doctor's notes (inc mental health notes) were stored in the database in plain text. You had to have admin access to the database (which I did), but I was stunned that I could browse anyone's entire medical information. A few weeks after I left I sent an anonymous email to a couple of people letting them know how bad it was - I didn't use my real one just in case they may have come after me for looking at the records.

Thanks for the responses; it seems I can't really do it. I looked into ZFS but if I use that it halves the available disk space to 2TB. I'm using the VM for a media server and thought it would be better to have 1 4TB space instead of 2 2TB disks. At the end of the day it isn't a big deal, I just thought I'd be able to present both disks as 1.

I hope one day we will be able to charge devices without plugging them in - even if the amount of charge is small, it might be able to trickle charge all the time.

I've heard the same about the evidence of him existing, but I don't get why religious people can't entertain the notion that some other guy wrote some stuff that was, you know, possibly made up? I can point to an entire library section of stuff that people have written that isn't true. Maybe the guy who talked about seeing him walking on water really didn't? Nah, far more believable that he actually did defy physics.

I've been on the internet since the early 90s and try to keep my stuff anonymous. But as you say, I am sure someone could find out all about me if they wanted, despite using a VPN 90% of the time, using dummy emails to sign up for stuff, never posting photos etc. If someone posts a photo to Facebook with me in it, with a comment "Me and John Doe having a great time", I have no control over it.

Seems a lot faster today - great work!

I also read that what is not taken into account is that the people on the cruise ships are not somewhere else - so you have hundreds of thousands of people who are not driving, heating houses, flying, or basically not doing other things that could cause emissions. Whether it has an effect or not I don't know, but it does sort of make sense.

As an IT support person, I've learnt to dumb things down for management. They don't want to hear stuff like "Increased the SGA, changed the buffer size and added a function based index...etc". Sometimes I'll do a short and a long version something like "the issue was around memory settings which have been increased", plus the detailed info.

XBox Game Pass. Saved me literally hundreds of dollars on games I'd buy otherwise, and avoids bad purchases like Redfall.

I use uptime kuma for monitoring - really easy to set up and very versatile

But I can see this embolden racists / homophobes. They are generally dumb, and will probably refuse to serve people citing this decision and will either end up in court or get away with it.
