The best response in these cases is no response.
The second best response (if you can’t resist the urge) is to say no, but not to say why. Don’t help them tune their messaging to get a couple percent more votes – in the Canadian electoral systems, even just a couple thousand voters makes the difference between winning and losing.
Dude is seriously mentally ill.
For the record, supervised consumption sites aren’t the solution to drug abuse. They’re the solution to people dying of drug poisonings before they can get help with their addictions.
What causes drug addiction? Hopelessness. Homelessness. Mental illness. Abuse.
What’s the government doing to solve those problems? Sweet. Fuck. All.
This is what conservative governments bring you – cruelty and making existing problems worse.
And when making hundreds of billions of dollars off of the ‘woke’ crowd that subscribes to the ‘building a better tomorrow’ ideal, turning into an ignorant and unrepentant fascist piece of shit is a good way to erode market share for free, if you exclude the $46 Billion USD social media site purchase, which is now worth essentially nothing.
I just checked some older eMails, and it’s not their mail provider / API token that got breached (previous messages used cyberimpact, not zoho).
I also assign unique eMail addresses for my online accounts, and also got this eMail today.
It’s likely that Bixi got hacked, not that they sold the eMail address.
Just do what I do – change the eMail address slightly on the mail server and on your online account.
First, if you have more than one disk, you should be either getting redundancy through mirroring, or building arrays of several disks with redundant methods like RAID5 / RAID6 / ZFS zraid2.
Second, no single copy of data is safe, you must always have recent, tested backups.
I’ve watched a company load up 2PB of data into a tape library, have them stack it full of bubblewrap, then roll it onto the back of a truck with the tires deflated for a softer ride, then driven across town to a new datacentre at 3am on a Sunday.
Effective data rate: 1PB per hour.
I’m not a gamer, but I remember their drivers for even their high-end cards were a fucking nightmare on Linux.
It’s not that hard to give the open source community what they need in order to build their own drivers, or enough source for them to get things working properly. This was one of their dumbest moves among many dumb moves.
Yup, I had a dozen or more of these a few years back – they’re quiet & cool, but slow as fuck, and NOT good in arrays. If you need an offsite backup drive, or a NAS with a mirrored setup, or a drive for all your “Linux ISOs” for viewing on your television or tablet, this works just fine.
need a computer with a CPU
So, like… a computer.
Puberty Blockers aren’t of much use once you’ve already been through puberty – it’s moronic to insist on a blanket ban like some politicians are proposing.
Everyone’s views on this are irrelevant unless they’re a parent or doctor of a child with gender dysphoria. If you’re not, STFU, mind your own business, and go find something better to do.
There’s no way to make a concrete behemoth like the Olympic Stadium sound good.
I’d actually love to see that – Level 6: Finding fresh bok choi. Buy bok choi for stirfry. Monster attacks, defeat him, you win only if the bokchoi is left unbruised. Level 7: Make stirfry. Monster attacks, Goal - defeat him before stir fry gets cold. :)
FYI, these are likely the SMR variety – very quiet, and they run cool, but they’re best used as archival drives, and very slow.
This is how we found out my mother had it:
Mom: “The colours on this new TV are terrible. Everyone is green.”
Me: “Okay, hold on, let me adjust the tint.”
Mom: “Now they’re too blue.”
Me: adjusts the colour temp
Mom: “Ew, now everyone is too yellow, it’s like the Simpsons.”
Mom: “Well, it’s still not right, but it’s less awful.”
A few years later I found out about Tetrachromacy tests online, and she scored something like 98%.
Generally speaking, buying outright is always cheaper than renting, because you can always continue to run the device potentially for years, or sell it to reclaim some capital.
Nope, no Betamax (too rare, too expensive). And you’re right that I focus on camcorders – before my full-size VHS player died, I found that what people were bringing me were mostly old TV shows you can find on YouTube, and terrible quality pirated movies.
This is a “pro-sumer” level device. Images come out around 3-5megapixels, the software removes lint and restores faded colours based on the make/type of film. If you have a selection of slides you’d like me to re-scan for you (e.g. pictures you’d like to have better copies of) package them up and bring them by. I’ll lay down a caveat that sometimes the image quality is crap because the original image is improperly exposed – in the old days, photography was tricky, calculating exposure was difficult, and consumer grade lenses were awful.
The best part is that most people can’t absorb a $160k judgement, and the landlord would likely have to sell the home they were renting. The person who was evicted should be first in line to be able to buy the prior home.
