Is that why all hangers are now just more plastic? I used to be able to make little things with the wire. It was malleable but almost spring hardened.

Don't worry it's not airborne.

I'm selling my extra pea gravel. I'll try and get an exception for export to ruzzia if necessary. Sure gravel can be used as bullets. But I find that level of indefence acceptable.

Each 1/4" gravel piece will cost just one ruble. And the uses are endless! For example, for several billion rubles you can defend one building! Did I mention that each gravel piece is personally signed by a very hot American woman who will be completely naked while signing it and she will gently touch the tip of her blossoms on every piece before kissing it and telling it a story. Usually she will arrange several thousand pieces around her to tell the story. Usually it's a reading of an accounting book though. But she will be totally naked.

We, at my backyard pile of gravel company hope that before we run out, there will be at least one ruzzian buried several feet under each one of our beautiful gray colored pieces.

The true value of this very special gravel comes in the field! As each soldier is dropped by those pesky Ukrainians, the location can be specially marked by placing a pieces over the perished. Incredibly, you can then place one in a special counting bag. So if you count 5 pieces later in that bag, that means you had 5 perished guys. And these marker counters last for years and years! No maintenance required! It's the perfect way of saying thank you. I got at least a cubic yard of this beautiful specimens. 50% off if we switch the model with a very naked mole rat. The rat does all the aforementioned things but in its own native way of communicating with little squeaks.

I heard that they are actively paying bounty hunters to track down pregnant women. WTF? Is their knuckle working at all?

So email came before Google. Email was good. You went to your computer and downloaded your inbox. You could either delete the email from the server and have it in your computer only or keep it in both places. With android and Google, the strategy was to give you an address that you couldn't take with you anywhere, and to let you see and accumulate emails from any device such that your data could be used for AI and you couldn't easily retain it and still use it globally. You can come up with your own email server, just not a gmail.com address. They own you until you just start elsewhere.

RIP. This is just such a sad story. I hoped things went better. I hoped she would recover. I guess the guy mentioning the 75% burn was not survivable was right this time.

The wars of the future will be between big ass companies using drones, espionage, hacking, assassins, etc. it won't involve us poor commoners anyway.

Doritos are really flammable. I wonder if we just feed a rich guy Doritos if it will do the trick. But you're right, that's just one type. How can we make a rich guy more stiff? Stuff enough for armor piercing. This will take quite a bit of lead pills.

Yes please tell us who the real people are! We AI companies can't tell anymore since we are polluting the http waters.

No, no! To prevent these shootings it's obvious that removing every kid's trigger finger is the best solution. First we need companies to emerge that can receive these fingers and keep them alive and healthy until the kids are 21 years of age. We should also remove their penises. Sure we could teach sexual health but that's not something you want in school! Plus just imagine all the money 💰💰🤑🤑 to be made during the removal and reattachment procedures!!! There could be re-attachment ceremonies! And they're kids so you're bound to end up with extra fingers in case the 4th of July goes wrong or because the 4th of July went really wrong. And you can choose the orientation! Forget opposing thumbs! That was between us and the animals! Imagine opposing pointing fingers! What couldn't you do! What couldn't you do indeed!

We could start the first war fought by dropping rich people from drones!

No wait... dropping rich people on fire from drones. That's better. We might run out of rich people, but they will run out of rich people first!

A car park built for £51 million in Oxfordshire is lying empty because a council cannot connect it to the main road.

Planning problems are preventing motorists from using the 19-acre park and ride scheme in Eynsham until funding is secured to link it to the A40.

Aerial photographs show the 850-space site devoid of vehicles, despite its finished glossy tarmac, bus stops and green spaces. All major construction work was finished in January, followed by landscaping last month.

Although the car park could be cut off from the main road until 2027, local authorities have contracts to maintain it every week, cutting the grass and topsoiling and seeding when necessary.

I searched for the email address and although it's a scam, it's white listed in some random place

Well I set up my email server thru cloudflare and managed to receive emails directly to my basement server. I could live with this and the various security threats incoming thru my unifi. But one thing is for sure, my wife won't have any of it. She's a total backwards thinking give me windows or I'll jump kind of Gal. So I found that I could run a dockerized Thunderbird instance and I thought ... Wow! I can just login to it from my computer or my phone, Surely this is it! I can have emails backed up from Gmail to my server and just access my server! And you know what? It works! I can access my Gmail on my browser! It's beautiful!.... But then I login through my phone and wow! I can access my Gmail! Thru my phone! Except the interface is the same as my desktop. It's literally a VNC to the server. I can login to it on my desktop and watch the mouse move as I move my finger on my phone! Great party trick, but....the text is microscopic. So is there another way to get IMAP and SMTP interface to Gmail, archiving all emails on my own server? I literally don't want any of my emails to live on a Gmail server, but I want to be able to send receive and search emails I previously passed through Gmail but now live on my server.

Unless they plan to drop some bombs over our heads I don't see how WW3 with the US involved would result in better accomodations for the ruzzians.

I'm a lazy gunless asshole typing away from my couch. But if some grade a asshole from ruzzia came to bother me, I probably could easily run downstairs and grab any one of many power tools capable of removing ruzzians body parts.

I believe the Ukrainian defense is going to kick ruzzians ass pretty good. Hopefully soon we'll see putin coming out of a smokey hole in the ground on a grainy YouTube video. putin is the real reason for the war. Removing him might bring up a few more people like him, but those can be removed since the public won't be behind them.

It used to be the Greatest advancement in Microsoft's purchased software ever! Plus teams...

Now I got One Note which should be renamed "Several Notes"

There's the one from the browser, the one from One Note student version, the pro version, the purple tab version, the gray tab version etc. and you can make any of them look different. You can have vertical tabs or horizontal tabs. It's like Linux except there's no actual functionality difference, it's just so different that you can't fucking follow what anyone else did on the same exact page. In the browser it might be highlighted with Roman Times font, yours might look like Arial font with no highlight but the background is light blue.

Anyway the app is a total trainwreck. It's still very useful but it's less effective if the thing looks and behaves so different that I don't understand where we're at on the page each time a member of my team presents it via teams.....

and thanks Microsoft for not having a simple button to maximize the page being presented. 5 minutes off every meeting is spent figuring out how to maximize the God damn content followed by or preceding a good 10 minutes of figuring out which is the mic or sound card or monitor you're supposed to be presenting on, followed by ...can you see it yet? Can you hear me? Can I hear them, I'll just rejoin, can you make it bigger? You can make it bigger if you remove the waste of space that is the big ass blocks with everyone's name on them! Ok how? Click here! No, go to view. I swear I've noticed it under preferences! No this is the browser version! Why can't It just install it on everyone's computer and all presentation rooms? Blah blah...ok we're ready to present but we're 5 minutes over. Thanks everyone who came!

Thanks bye!...bye!, bye! Bye guys!..... Hold on. A sec I didn't even come! What kind of company is this? The slide wasn't even that sort of material that makes me come. Well fine bye! I'll just come later to the Sears catalog.....who was that guy? It will check!

All joiners leave the meeting, the stage closes it's curtains abruptly....a woman still crying in the back corner...mhaaa! It's so good because it's true!.

The link makes it seem like crap hardware, and sure 4gb of ram is really crappy. But how does this compare with one of my kid's Fire tablets? Does anyone have opinions on that?

Let's imagine the possibilities and theoretically demo the results based on current knowledge:

  1. yes AI made the process fast and the patient did not die unnecessarily.

  2. same but the patient died well.

  3. same but the patient died.

  4. same as either 1, 2, or 3 but AI made things slower.

Demo:

Pharmacy: Patient requires amoxicillin for a painful infection of the ear while allergic to penicillin:

AI: Sure! You will find penicillin in Isle 23 box number 5.

Pharmacy: the patient needs amoxicillin actually.

AI: Sure! The Patient must have an allergic reaction to more commonly used anti inflammatory medications.

Pharmacy: actually amoxicillin is more of an antibiotic, where can I find it?

AI: Sure! While you are correct that amoxicillin is an antibiotic, it is a well studied result that after an infection inflammation is reduced. You can find the inflammation through out the body including the region where the infection is located.

Pharmacy: amoxicillin location!

AI: Sure! Amoxicillin was invented in Beecham Research Laboratories.

I'm currently trying to exit Gmail with all my emails if possible. However many comments are about why I shouldn't host my own server. So it got me thinking that there should be a new kind of email system not based on all the previous crud from the before times that we still use today.

And indeed, it looks like AI will be the driving force that ends email just like spam did the telephone. Sure the telephone is still around but no one uses teleconferencing anymore for example. We use teams and zoom and such other shitty pay services. So the pool is prime to reinvent email. The users may not see a big difference maybe, but the tech behind it may hopefully be simplified and decentralized as it was meant to be.

It's a bad title, but I'm trying to figure out how to describe what I want.

First, I got my photoprism working thru cloudflare. Now, on the same domain I would like an email address.

So mysite.com gets routed to 56.654.234.12 let's say by cloudflare such that a global user never sees my ip. But mail.mysite.com that's different, they don't proxy email so if you do a reverse lookup you can find the origin IP.

I heard about tunnels so I stupidly signed up for that, only to learn that a tunnel just lets you into an internal network. So an SMTP server can't get emails from outside that way.

Ideally, somehow I could setup one user at Gmail or proton mail, then somehow setup the same or different user...user1@mysite.com and I could then use mailu, mailcow, mail docker to house my user1@mysite.com which routes mail thru Gmail or protonmail. I know all this makes little sense because I don't know the proper way, so that's my question for you smart people who have done this twice over. Could someone point me to the best way of setting up a local mail server that routes thru cloudflare but is not easily reverse looked up? Is that even a problem at all?
