Someone on here warned me about ProtonMaiI should have listened. I'd just gone through all the hassle of migrating most of my life from Gmail to ProtonMail, and really didn't want to believe I needed to do it all over again. Anyway, you told me so, and you were right.

Preparing to migrate off ProtonMail, since the CEO is clearly delusional, has a world view so divorced from ground truth that he might as well be delusional, is just another gaslighting fascist techbro, or some combination of the three. Whichever it is, I have lost all trust in Proton services. (The Swiss email and VPN provider, not to be confused with Steam's Windows compatibility thing.)

Evaluating Mailfence, Tuta, and Disroot. Please feel free to comment if you have used them, or if there is another provider you suggest. Yes, I can roll my own mail server. I was a mail admin long enough to know that I don't want to. Boosts welcome.

@JessTheUnstill I'm increasingly convinced that the people who complain most about "DEI hires" are nepo hires.

@drscriptt @cks This might be a useful starting place, giving an example of connections between a BMC and the rest of a server-grade system. https://www.issi.com/US/newsletter/Issue86_June_2021/ISSI_BMC-Engangement.pdf

At first, I was assuming that at least part of the PCH or equivalent would need to be powered-up for remote management, to allow for PCIe communication between the BMC and the management NIC, but maybe the RGMII connection eliminates that need? Maybe that's only for machines with a dedicated management NIC? Anyway, I've ended-up with more questions than answers after trying to dive-in to this topic.

@phil_stevens I don't understand why people can't see that accelerationism is not a viable strategy when what they're accelerating is white ethnonationalist theofascism.

Wait . . . so Jezebel is un-shutdown now? How did that happen? I'm overjoyed, of course! Apparently, there are some staffing changes. I guess we'll have to wait and see whether the resurrected Jezebel is still the real deal.

How many people have McKinsey management consultants killed with things like "Deny, Delay, Defend"?

@thomasfuchs @mwichary I don't think the Control/Caps Lock thing has much to do with being a keyboard nerd, but rather, those who've spent many years using a Unix layout keyboard, like a Sun Type 4 or 5, or any of numerous glass tty keyboards from a 20 year period.

@silverwizard I like how you think.

So, I have to learn to interpret ECG results, but only so I can alert the patient's practitioner of an abnormal result. I don't get to dramatically yell "She's in V-fib!" like in those medical dramas on TV, since actually diagnosing the patient is outside an MA's scope of practice. Paradoxically, it seems that I am allowed to grab an AED to mitigate the problem that I can't diagnose with countershocks.

@silverwizard That sounds a whole lot more efficient than cutting a bunch of chunks from around the core, then slicing the peel from each chunk, but it's not going to give you much of an intuitive grasp of areas under curves!

@silverwizard Maybe you have a better technique for peeling them than I do?

If you can prepare anything with mango in it, you can understand integral calculus.

@thomasfuchs I've been trying to popularize "space shitclown" instead, after reading Tarah Wheeler's opinion on the whole Karen thing.

Waiiit . . . does this place scrub EXIF data?
