  • You're assuming they actually understand proper data protection procedures. You have a very misplaced amount of faith in the knowledge of the average person. Plenty of people just expect stuff to work and are horrified when they realize they're not.

    I saw that all the time when I worked in mobile phone sales/support.

  • Nudist Colony of the Dead is awful and fantastic at the same time. I love getting a friend to go into the movie blind.

    The day I got my best bud fucking blazed out of his mind to watch it has to be one of my favorite experiences.

  • To continue with the argument of "the market will self-regulate and people wouldn't buy that brand anymore so they would never do it again"

    Turns out the parent company owns every other brand of that product, so going to another brand is meaningless

  • The dead also can't have their consent violated and feel that particular psychological trauma which I think is the real root of what makes rape such a particularly awful thing.

    By that logic, you can't steal from the dead because they no longer own the property. Because the act of stealing is taking something that belongs to someone else.

  • because the suffering of a living victim is an essential part of what makes rape rape.

    You are still violating the bodily autonomy of someone who did not consent to being in that situation. That's basically the definition of rape. The suffering of the victim, while horrendous, is not what the crime is.

  • Since they handle redundancy and backups I think it’s fine staying with them (+ great product)

    This. I love self hosting services, but anything that I 100% can't live without isn't one of them. Because I don't have the funds for proper redundancy/high availability, and my backup practices at home are..... Not ideal. I've had a couple brushes with data loss due to gaps in backups, lack of monitoring for impending hardware failures, and had 2 disks suddenly die together in a raid array, all in over a decade of self hosting.

    I have cold backups of most of my critical services, but they're not nearly regular enough for me to trust my passwords to myself.

  • The people who are trying to get the left to abandon the effective means we have for shifting the overton window to the left are right-wingers or being manipulated by right-wingers.

    It's amazing how often I see someone proclaiming to have a deeply held belief only to turn around and immediately support a political pathway that is objectively detrimental to their cause and crow about how their position is the most moral while ignoring the 100% predictable consequences. Bonus points for them also arguing that picking the obviously better choice is wrong because both sides are the same, or the other person would have done the shit that only one of them was saying they'd do.

  • No, just that your dAnGeRoUs ChEmIcAl assertion is FUD and spreading ignorance. But considering you 'unironically yes'-ed a comment referencing Haiti and how the microorganisms will strengthen your immune system, I'm entirely unsurprised.

    As another person put it 'the dose is the poison'. Sure, chlorine is poisonous in large doses. But so is water.

  • Must just be one of those "yeah my product is awful but have you seen the other guy?" sort of situations. I never had to use the EMR directly outside of troubleshooting, but both epic and the previous EMR were pretty garbage so I don't really have a good baseline to go off of.

  • And you would have a point if the man was an openly shitty person. For all you knew this was an otherwise respectable dude who still shared nudes of his partner. You can't always tell shitty dudes ahead of time. Sometimes you can only know them when they are being shitty dudes.

    Instead, you don't have a point, you're just looking to blame the victim.

  • Oh man, epic is such complicated garbage that even with a company brought in to set it up, the center I worked at during the rollout was a fucking mess. I left 14-18 months after initial deployment and they were still ironing bugs out, and I heard they rolled back within a year or so of leaving. Also, it's almost hilarious how often I hear nurses bitching about using epic just when I have to go in for anything, and none of them are related to the place I worked.

  • "You are right, I made a mistake. Here is a better answer." Continues to give wrong answers

    The exact same wrong answer. Co-Pilot is especially bad for that. I'm practically giving up using it outside of vs code because the actual copilot AI is dog shit stupid m

  • Man, just wait until you hear about this awful chemical called dihydrogen monoxide. It's used as an industrial solvent, cleaning agent, and all other kinds of destructive things, and they put it in your food! This shit can kill you if you breathe in too much, yet they put it in our food?!?!1?1

  • Basically, a playbook is a set of instructions or baselines for how you want the system to look/be setup, and the provisioning tool will engage in however many tasks are required to configure the system to your specifications. I played around with something similar with PowerShell DSC, and its pretty cool to be able to eliminate config drift when it checks against the config and remediates any changes that weren't updated in the playbook.

  • How about calling it genocide vs even-more-genocide? Does that make the distinction any clearer between the choices that were available? Whether we like it or not (and I'm 100% in the latter group) 'no genocide' was not on the menu

    Don't get me wrong, I'm disgusted by the state of politics in this country, and would not have voted for Kamala had there been any other person on the ballot that had a realistic choice of winning. But the choice was what we had, and we knew the outcome was going to be bad but workable or fucking awful naked fascism. And so many people chose fucking awful naked fascism in the face of not being able to hold up their moral purity, and now make arguments like she would have done all the awful shit that trump was telling us he was going to do.

    That's why I said what I said. And if you actually read the article I linked above instead of taking what the other user cherry picked out, you'll see that even the staffer who left because of Gaza said we should have voted for her for basically the reason of what we're seeing happen.
