That’s similar to the isolated vlan but someone who knows more about networking than me will probably be able to explain why the vlan is superior. I would imagine it’s failsafeness, the vlan is just its own thing

The benefit of doing the domain specific firewall blocking would be if you wanted your printer to otherwise have internet access (eg to check octoprint remotely). I don’t print when I’m not home due to the risk of fire and I don’t trust opening up my printer to the web, so I don’t bother with this. Others may have different opinions on acceptable risk

Easy mode: don’t connect it to internet

Slightly harder: add exceptions for bambus servers in your routers firewall so that requests to that domain are blocked

Dependent on hardware that you own and less likely to exist on basic routers: create a virtual lan for your 3d printer that does not have internet access but has intranet access, allowing you to connect between computers but not to the web (my preferred solution)

Fentanyl isn’t as dangerous when you’ve been slamming dope every day for a decade, you might purposely seek it out at that point

He also got into Harvard law despite being by his own admission a total fuckup. If you or I spend our adolescence committing crime and doing drugs we don’t get to go to Harvard but rfk got rewarded for his continual shitty decisions with one of the most prestigious educations followed up by an elite career in law. I am sure it was not a secret he was using the entire time and yet he continued to fail upwards. At least at this point he did some good for the world. Too bad he’s undone it all and then some (another measles outbreak today in Kansas)

He was actually a lawyer and was fairly well known for defending environmental causes, minority groups, and disenfranchised communities

If he didn’t take this turn later he probably would’ve been remembered as a fairly decent man who turned his life around (a former heroin addict) and did good things

Instead he is known who destroyed the country’s healthcare system. I personally don’t believe he was ever a former addict. I think he was a shitty child of extreme privilege (objectively true) who was an asshole that stole shit from people and sold drugs despite having access to extreme wealth in his teens (objectively true) and kept doing heroin until he finally got caught by someone who couldn’t sweep it under the rug late into his law career (objectively true). At this point he had been doing heroin 10+ years and apparently quit for good with one rehab stint (highly suspect).

Given his privilege and the timing (late 80s) I suspect he got access to a corrupt doctor that wrote him tons of adderall scripts and he just changed his addiction to something “legitimate” (conjecture). Maybe he cleaned himself up over the next 40 years and that’s why he now he has such a beef against adderall and psych meds now. Classic right wing projection: I can’t take these without slamming 25 a day and become a methd up zombie so I assume everyone is the same (also conjecture, obviously).

Hard inquiries stay on your report for 2 years but stop impacting your credit after a year

It’s not a huge deal unless you’re planning to buy a car or a house or something relatively soon

You can dispute them but they were all legitimate so you might as well just wait, it’s not that long. Your score was excellent so unless you incur a ton of debt It shouldnt go down all that much. And again, unless you’re planning to do something that is contingent on your credit within the next year or two it doesnt really matter

Based on the name I thought this was gonna be some platform to make homemade tofu more accessible to people and I was thinking “it’s really not all that hard to make, that’s kind of silly”

going after big nasoya

That’s ritard, short for ritardando

Unless you meant a non chord tone resolving downwards but that’s retardation

Somewhat misleading headline but still cool

It’s a three way street though. Lazy consumers are to blame for enabling but bad companies are worse for having anti consumer practices to begin with. And the biggest failure of all is our government for allowing anti consumer behavior to run rampant and not allow any meaningful regulation to go through because they’re utterly corrupted and pro corporation.

In the “normies” defense in a functional society I shouldn’t have to research every purchase I make to ensure it is not hostile against me. However, we live in a dystopia where it is necessary to either manufacture your own foss solution or research for the purchasable option (that is often just the least hostile but still fairly hostile)

We have become so normalized to anti consumer behavior it doesn’t even matter anymore

Like it used to be that a videogame manufacturer charged for a dlc that was already on the game disc, you had to pay to unlock data that you technically had purchased but not licensed, and people threw a fucking fit. Now it’s like “this new tech device will only work if you insert $20 bills every 30 minutes” and people are like “oh well that sucks but what are you gonna do? I need a toaster that can send me a notification when my toast is done”

Fuck the companies that do anti consumer bullshit, fuck the youtuber dummies that normalize it because they got $50 and a free shitty printer, fuck the government that has completely failed to regulate anything, and fuck the dummies who constantly enable this nonsense because they refuse to spend 10 minutes researching their purchases and instead spend the rest of their life in credit card debt because they have $1100 in monthly subscriptions to stupid bullshit that makes their stuff work for 18 months until the company goes bankrupt, their device is bricked, and they replace it with another piece of shit that has the same anticonsumer bullshit

I build an original voron 1.0, reused the parts to build a 2.0, and built that into a 2.4 with mostly newer parts because the frame was just fucked from all that nonsense. I have a very low serial from back when they did that on the subreddit, not sure if that’s still a thing

Even with the raggedy frame it was a great printer. But building it properly it’s bulletproof. Costly but if you want a forever printer that you can mod it’s the way to go imo

Obviously timing to be replaced by someone even worse

And now he can use his newly padded resume to get a cushy executive job at wherever guts the remainder of the usps

This is nothing on the order of watergate, prism, etc and you and I both know this admin has that level of corruption going on

Sit on this bombshell, which is ultimately that the admin uses a non approved communication modality that hides their tracks (shocker, they’re afraid of being on record). You still have evidence of that by sitting on this. Wait until they drop some real shit and leak that. But that would probably end with you needing to leave the country

Yeah maybe. But maybe not. I’d rather not bank on a potential when the actuality was literally manifested, but what’s done is done

Maybe the only way this happens again is if someone from within the administration develops a spine and leaks info

Okay and? He has a direct line into the administrations secret signal group. This is tremendous thing dropped into his lap

It’s like if bob woodward met with deep throat once, reported there was nonsense going on in the Nixon administration, but then told him to fuck off becuase it was too risky to continue. That’s insane and his bravery led to Nixons corruption being exposed

Or like Snowden going to greenwald and co and them reporting that “some guy told us about government corruption but we sent him on his way” instead of coordinating his transport to Hong Kong and Russia and passing of the document cache because it was “too risky”

Modern journalists being cowards is a huge part of the reason we have trump. He should be ashamed he threw away such a tremendous opportunity. You better believe they’re going to improve their opsec now.

Being a journalist is about taking huge risks to expose things like corrupt governments. Man got the golden ticket and threw it away once he verified it was real

Oh right duh. Disregard what I said, obviously. Been ages since I’ve used a setup that’s not one big pool

Do you have sonarr set to copy or hard link on import

Copy will fuck over your ability to seed, hard link will result in the files staying on your torrenting drive

Policy and advocacy? Maybe masters of public health

That said as someone who’s worked as a licensed counselor for over a decade one of my pet peeves is when someone gets an MPH and all of a sudden is an authority because they spent two years learning about “the issues”. It’s kind of like the MBA who comes into a company and is like “oh it’s pretty cool what you’re doing but I know everything because I learned that making more money is great!”

That said it does give you some cred. Ultimately the biggest thing is networking, like all things in life. Get to know people and play the game of “hey remember me from x! I’m doing x now and we’d love to x” it sucks but if you truly want to enact change you need people to know you and be on your side more than any letters

Pedigree and experience helps though. Just don’t get too bogged down in it. I’ve known people with my licensure (masters of counseling, lpc), that do work here. Plenty of psychologists, MDs and DOs, CRNPs, etc. they have the benefit of drawing on experience, which can be powerful.

I recently did some advocacy work and it involved writing an op-ed about my experience working in the residential inpatient system we are talking about here, for example. I have spoken to policy makers about what works and what doesn’t in this vein. I will admit it is unbelievably frustrating to speak to a politician who practices being super polite and nice to everyone. They hear you out and talk in empty platitudes, shake your hand, then vote for the insurance companies that you find out paid them $8,000 via open secrets. It’s disheartening but you keep trying, I guess

Well practitioners who are members of the APA/ACA/etc have the most sway. Writing opeds, participation in meetings, submission to calls to action, becoming more involved in the organization. Like any political action really you have similar challenges: how do you organize members? Except here it’s a bit different; a great deal of membership is in agreement that conversion therapy is abhorrent. But like governmental political action leadership is often hesitant to make serious moves

The troubled teen industry is a different issue. The worst examples of these facilities often operate outside of regulation. The thing is there are regulatory concerns for certain facilities but then there are loopholes around this. If I open an inpatient residential facility I have regulatory guidelines to follow. If I open a “camp” for troubled teens the regulations are much more relaxed, basically nonexistent.

Inpatient facilities that operate properly are a different story. These are fairly heavily regulated in most states but the regulations can vary wildly. However even in states where regulations are more strict it is often cash starved on the side of regulatory oversight. Ie the bodies that exist to ensure regulatory compliance have little money. This is addition to the programs themselves being poorly funded (and often the funding being unfairly distributed)

The solution to mental health treatment is such a multifaceted problem. People don’t want this; they want a simple line. Increased funding would help, but it wouldn’t solve it. In many cases it would simply be absorbed into private equity and administrative salaries. Increased regulation would help but if you just do this it won’t do much because the programs cannot cope without the funding, training, and increased staffing. Additionally regulatory bodies would need the teeth to actually enforce. And this doesn’t even touch upon the health insurance component that is necessary to be reformed heavily so people can access these (absurdly expensive) services without being bankrupted

That last point is key. These services are absurdly expensive. Inpatient on the low end can be 10k per month and as much as 60k a month. People don’t want to pay for this and politicians know this is a class of people that can easily be erased for massive healthcare savings (at the benefit of funneling them into private prisons instead, which is absolutely disgusting, but politicians are scum)
