I 100% agree. my response was intended to be sarcasm about how full of shit they are. as if they only trick themselves into believing it in the moment and as soon as the moment passes so does their belief.

That isn’t to say I think they actually believe anything they say. I foolishly thought the sarcasm was obvious, I should probably just add /s bt efault.

You can get rolls of the stuff that you cut to size too. Its amazing badaids suck anyway. Basically change your bandage any time you see a sink compared to go swimming in the ocean with tegaderm and still keep using the same one.

Is it a lie if you believe it at the time?

But this struggle goes to 11.

I can’t speak to designs as you don’t provide an example and Im not in Belgium. A couple of thoughts, from my experience in the us.

Water pressure is not the same everywhere in a city. Some places have very high water pressure, some places have terribly low pressure. It may be worth investing in a pressure gauge. There are adjustable and static gauges that will help manage water pressure.

If you leave your hose spigot on when the hose is not in active use, or even leave water in it. I would advise against this. The sun heats up the hose, increasing water pressure significantly, which can even cause the hose to burst.

Another thought, after doing a quick search. If this is the design you’re talking about, then idk how anyone would expect this to last any amount of time unless the pressure was uselessly low. Or maybe us hoses are such crap that I can’t compute how this design could function.

Don’t worry, ai will maintain it…

Even then localy produced products may go up in price to just under the imported price to maximize profits even though there is no additional overhead.

I had a similar issue with a SAS drive In the backplane of a dell server. I thought for sure the drive was failing. Reseated it, cleaned the ports, ran some tests, just kept failing without any obvious signs why it was. Replaced it with a spare and same issue. That seemed very unlikely, so I put the old drive in another slot and its still running just fine going on 2 years without an issue. If you have another toaster give it a try.

The market is rife with cheapo junk tech. Ive seen several crapo off brand drive toasters fail, so thats possible. I don’t know the brand of yours so I can’t speak to them.

It could also just be the power supply for the toaster is crapping out, or doesn’t provide enough amperage. Those power supplies dont always keep providing the same amount of power forever, sometimes it drops over time, and that could be the cause too. Or they could be poorly made, meaning they probably drop in even short time periods.

If you have another power supply with the same voltage and higher amperage, you could try that. You could also try running only one drive in there and see if it keeps failing, if no issues, you could try the other drive and see if that one has issues. If that one doesn’t have issues either it could indicate power issues.

I think soc 2 type ii is nice, but I also don’t think it really says much about privacy in the context of me trusting what a business will do with my personal data. its been 4 or so years since if done an soc audit, so please correct me if I’m wrong. From what I recall its primarily geared toward security in general and when they say privacy, they mean securing your data from use unauthorized by the business.

The distinction im making here is that, from what I recall, soc 2 type ii says nothing about what can be done with your data (e.g. selling data to brokers, training ai, targeting ads, unclear/communicated eula changes, etc.). During these, and most other, security audits you can make business arguments as to why you should be exempt from various security mechanism or configs. These systems also don’t protect from techno fascist douchebaggery like feeding the government information on individuals without warrant or just cause, to assist in targeting minorities or activists for example.

To be clear, I use proton, I think its great, and MOSTLY trust them with my data. I do also like that they got soc 2 type ii, i wasnt aware till now so thanks for the heads up. I’m not accusing or trying to infer any wrong doing either. Mostly trying to point out this doesn’t resolve potential abuses some folks may have concerns about after ceo/board member/whateverthefuckingtitleis drama.

Thanks for coming to my ted talk…

That or more likely kernel panic.

I was wondering why I couldn’t find mine. I figured I just had short term memory loss.

There are companies that make you watch anti union propaganda as part of orientation. They also pay tons of money to bust up any attempts at unionization. The disinformation thats pushed put about unions is baffling. Anything from its communism to the unions steal your money. Its not super surprising to me at this point.

On the flip side all the wealthy actors are union… Says a thing or two…

Login to your credit card portal and check if they have it. I noticed mine has it as a free service now.

If your in the US you can tell them you’ll report them to the FTC and fcc as unsolicited spam text messages that have no means to opt out. They must provide a means to stop receiving text messages per can spam act. If they refuse you report them and then they face 50k in fines per message. You also get to have federal record at least that you didn’t want the text messages. You could also file a police report. The cops may roll their eyes, but just tell them you just want something on record that the former number owner waa a shady character and want to avoid any potential legal issues in the future for having their number and getting weird calls or texts.

If only I could forget all the dumb shit I do or say…

I thought they still heavily utilized ff code.

This made me imagine people hiking around in short shorts with stiff and shiny legs.

Tuck your pants into your socks, this makes it much harder for them to get to the skin. And if you wear lighter color pants they’ll be easier to spot so you can grab and incinerate the little shits.

You can probably also get some nexguard plus! Jk thats for animals. They really should get something like that for peoples too though.

Yeah same experience for me. I assumed it was an issue with the routing table, but manually updating it didn’t seem to help. I assumed I was just not good enough at networking on android. I’d believe google would try to crap on that too though.
