Also means giving oral

Yes as a historical event that happened in English, linguists talk about it’s impact and what it was as a cultural moment in the language’s history but if you know linguists, you know that they do not care one little tiny bit about prescriptivism or the rules of English. Linguists study how people use language not how people should use language. That’s what English teachers are for.

Then don’t provide housing at all, let the market be affordable enough that people can buy housing. All rental companies provide is a funnel to keep the impoverished from saving their money to buy a home they can’t fathom according anyways. Same thing with house flippers. Buying a shit hole and giving it a paint job should not make it worth 3x the value you bought it at. Affordable housing is not the job of citizens, it is the job of the government and the government is doing its job making said housing, more attainable through rent caps.

A linguist would tell you that this is a stupid argument to squabble over and pronunciation and rules are less important than how people use the language they speak. Linguists don’t correct grammar, pedants on the internet do. And if you want a prescriptivist take on the rules outlining the pronunciation of acronyms, there are none. Every acronym ends up being pronounced the way it gets pronounced by the people who pronounce it. There are just as many acronyms that are pronounced like the words they use to make it up as there is that aren’t. You don’t say Jay-feg (JPEG) or Skub-ah (Scuba) so you should have no qualms with someone using a soft G in GIF. If you have an issue with a soft G in GIF then you should absolutely have an issue with a soft G in Giraffe or the hard G in Graph. Your rules make no more sense than the coinage of the term deciding how it should be said.

What part of my comment was defending child molesters? My point is that legalizing physical castration as a punishment for any crime at all, they have set the bar for what is considered cruel and unusual punishment below mutilation. Since our legal system is based on precedent, that means other forms of mutilation as punishment are now on the table in the courts.

Also, the absolutely are women child molesters. You can’t physically cut a biological woman’s balls off. The punishment targets men specifically and does nothing to actually stop molestation in the future. Also, Louisiana has the highest rate of false guilty verdicts in the country and they are the ones cutting men’s balls off… Just saying.

It’s not even about having babies. It’s about control in general. Louisiana just passed physical castration as a punishment. Yes it is for one of the worst most disgusting things a person can do to another living being, but it leaves no path for redemption, it is irreversible, it is cruel and unusual, and it is about control. They’ll literally cut your balls off in Louisiana for molesting children.

I feel like calling George Stephanopoulos an “ABC Host” kinda minimizes the career he’s had… He was a white House communications director, then the Senior Advisor to the President of the United States of America… Then he became a news reporter and eventually a co-host of Good Morning America. Honestly he’s a household name in the US.

Gondii is my favorite if theirs

for enterprise!

Also you didn’t need efficient software when the boundaries of hardware limitation have been so far from the requirements of most software

Dude gen z and alpha are so fucked.millenials got debt screwed so hard it’s created a whole industry around pushing easy to get loans and after pay and klarna and 0 interest rate credit and and and. Debt is literally required to live for most Americans and it’s only going to get worse.

This is the part where he tells her she’s in a fugue state. she’s been telling everyone she’s a therapist so she is now seeing an actual therapist to help get her mental stability back.

Today is actually Hitler’s birthday. That is all

RAID is not a backup, NAS is not a backup. Obviously there is no reason to backup readily available torrents but it doesn’t sound like you’re backing up at all. Self hosting data integrity is a much harder task than implied.

They’ve literally had 2 of them. The Vive, built by HTC and sold by Valve on Steam and its sucessor The Valve Index. Anyone who would consider themselves even mildly interested in VR Gaming probably knows about at least one of them.

Do you off-site backup as well? I don’t have the kind of money necessary to self host an on network and an off-site backup of my data…

It’s a really pain in the rear to configure for anyone who doesn’t have a dedicated IT or an MSP. You have to get these DKIM and DMARC records from your exchange provider and then you have to configure them on your DNS host. If your DNS host isn’t modifiable you have to send requests to their support to get those records put in place and then they want to verify your records from your provider as well as a security measure. I’ve had clients that took us a week because of all the song and dance of DKIM and DMARC all because I couldn’t go in and add the records myself.

Fuck you LOGIX you garbage company from the stone age. Let me manage my clients DNS records. 😤

DKIM is the standard for verification right now. This isn’t an anti-competition play. I manage DKIM records for my clients all the time. Yahoo, SB global, and At&t enforced DKIM requirements a few months back and it’s been a headache but it has made a huge difference in spam emails.

For anyone who doesn’t know what DKIM is, it’s a method of an email provider getting a sort of green flag from the host domain name. So if you have an email address whatever@mybusiness.com and your email provider is Microsoft 365 and your domain provider is goDaddy, Microsoft says to goDaddy, “hey I’m sending this email, can you verify that I have permission to send from the domain my business.com?” And go daddy checks for DKIM records from Microsoft and sees it and says “yes sir, this is approved.” Then M365 sends the email, and if the recipient requires DKIM to receive the email at whomever@yahoo.com, Yahoo looks at the domain and asks, “hey goDaddy, it says you host this, is this email legit?” And goDaddy says “yep it’s all legit, give it to the recipient.”

This effectively eliminates messages sent from a domain without DKIM records as well as spoofed emails because those spoofed emails never checked in when sending.

I appreciate the skepticism but this is a security play, not a business one.

They also use microscopic yellow dot patterns. Black and white only prints use a microscopic grey print pattern at the print boundary. The technique is a form of steganography. They aren’t tracking you btw. It gets used primarily to investigate fraud. Printer companies do it primarily because if they don’t, their brand will become associated with print related crimes. There are lists of printers that do not do steganographic serialization but those machines are almost entirely too poor quality to produce any convincing counterfeits anyways.

It’s for the purpose of serialization for counterfeit purposes. Also, high end copiers have a device installed called the BDU (Bill Detection Unit) that all scans pass through before being post processed. If the BDU detects a bill being scanned it can error and shut down the whole device until the manufacturer can send someone out to fix it. I used to be one of those people resetting BDUs at schools where a teacher thought it was a good idea to copy images of money for teaching students.
