When my insurance carrier stopped mailing cards they added a request to send the updated cards, pain in the ass but pretty sure most insurers are doing that now to cut corners because they aren’t legally required to send them.

YouTube alternatives?

On Thursday, the city of Columbus sued Ross for alleged damages for criminal acts, invasion of privacy, negligence, and civil conversion. The lawsuit claimed that downloading documents from a dark web site run by ransomware attackers amounted to him “interacting” with them and required special expertise and tools.

Maybe Ohio should find a better place to store their braindead citizens outside of a court bench rather than inside.

I’ve used Dia for years, great simple tool for diagramming & if I need something more I’ll switch to graphviz dot files

Yes, some people are uninformed idiots.

Yeah I don’t want government or private monopolies. Competition in an open, well regulated market seems better.

Switched mail and I’ll switch VPN once my old sub expires.

Also not a brand, in the trademark sense

Comp sci undergrad from a mid tier university graduated in 2012, didn’t need Windows at all. I mostly used an Ubuntu desktop, pocket sized mini laptop with bsd, and a red hat vdi the school provided during a research assistantship.

The school had labs in the library and comp sci building if you needed windows for something but it never came up. Group projects shared files on school provided web based tools or dropbox and used the same for class forums, sharing docs and assignments, etc. Some web stuff was broken for Firefox and had to use chrome, but never hit anything requiring IE (pre Edge).

Just make everything public and transparent because nobody seems to know how to actually protect data.

I won’t support any streaming service that has a sub+ad tier. Ads with no sub or sub no ads, anything else is incredibly greedy and the same as cable TV.

Lobste.rs is pretty active too for tech focused topics

Foreign government, moneyed interests, or domestic dipshits, taking all bets.

I’m not sure because google.com requires JavaScript and then when I enable it it says it’s had too much malicious behavior from my VPN address and to enable another host gstatic to connect to I’m guessing for a rechaptcha and I gave up

My favorite so far has been spoofing amiibos on the switch for Zelda goodies

I definitely made some assumptions, I’d probably do well to read a bit more and comment a bit less. No harm just down votes let me know there’s plenty more to learn
