I'd say bring it on, I'm totally in favour of sunshine. Always. The chances are pretty slim given the large amount of medical research into the vaccines. At the present time it seems to be yet another conspiracy theory involving thousands of people. What would it take to be skeptical of the agenda driven far right press?

Elon Musk says Twitter will offer 'amnesty' to suspended accounts
ozimoron replied to Scott's topic in World News
The white rabbit is no longer the world's richest man. https://www.abc.net.au/news/2022-12-15/who-is-bernard-arnault-the-new-richest-person-elon-musk/101774806 -
Exactly that model. It's very easy to add an nvme drive and memory. Mine is a 1Tb drive with 32 Gb memory. I use it heavily and rarely turn it off. I also do a lot of dev work so the CPU works hard. The fan is mostly inaudible but never noisy. I think if I were to go again I'd take the Intel NUC 11 only because it is fanless and potentially more reliable. I thoroughly recommend the ASUS as above.

I agree it's absolutely impossible for a black man to become the GOP presidential nominee. White supremacist militia's tripled after Obama was elected. Historically, early bets never seem to become the chosen one for the GOP. They all have too much baggage to survive. Imagine if Trump had declared in 2014? He wouldn't have stood a chance.

Outgoing White House medical adviser Anthony Fauci said Wednesday that he “doesn’t have a clue” what Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis hopes to accomplish by calling for a state grand jury investigation into alleged “crimes” related to COVID-19 vaccines. “I don’t have a clue … what he’s asking for. I mean, we have a vaccine that, unequivocally, is highly effective and safe and has saved literally millions of lives,” https://thehill.com/policy/healthcare/3775812-fauci-responds-to-desantis-call-for-covid-19-vaccine-investigation/

Trump Organization found guilty on multiple counts of criminal tax fraud
ozimoron replied to webfact's topic in World News
Jurors 'hated' Trump Organization's 'stupid' defense in tax fraud trial “Everyone hated ‘Weisselberg did it for Weisselberg,'" the juror said. "We found it demeaning. How stupid do you think we are? https://www.rawstory.com/trump-organization-tax-fraud-trial-2658962400/ -
DeSantis has surrounded himself with sycophants who have no qualifications in virology. They seize on small factoids like there can be complications from vaccines and weave them into a false narrative. The fact is that the same side effects are a magnitude more common and worse from the virus itself. This anti-science rhetoric is a ploy to attract the dimwits for political advantage at the cost of many lives. Evil personified. source: BBC cable TV news.

It doesn't take long. They are a commodity item these days (a few hundred dollars) and you can just program them and leave them to work. The learning curve is not great. One benefit is accuracy.

Elon Musk says Twitter will offer 'amnesty' to suspended accounts

I can hear the footfalls of the advertisers running for the exits and the scratching of quills on paper as TSLA sue Musk for reputational harm derived from advertising on Twitter. -

You just said you had no idea who Q anon was. Are you going to follow Elon on this? Do you believe him? If not, why are you commenting? -
Try a 3D printer? They are quite cheap these days.

Musk’s Twitter reportedly hasn’t paid rent on its office spaces for weeks
ozimoron replied to Scott's topic in World News
The only way I can see how he escapes the rent bill is to bankrupt Twitter but I think that's actually what you meant by "runner". -
VPN vs Cloud Computers for connecting to home from Thailand
ozimoron replied to WaveHunter's topic in IT and Computers
They can only get your IP address, approximate location via the IP address, the user agent (chrome) and the type of machine you are using via the user agent. They may also leave a cookie which identifies your request and can match it with previous requests. No identifying data is sent or obtainable. If worried, use an anonymous window in chrome or firefox. . -
VPN vs Cloud Computers for connecting to home from Thailand
ozimoron replied to WaveHunter's topic in IT and Computers
It's my view that their claim is misleading or outright false. The blacklists they refer to are usually MX (email) servers. Mail exchanges may blacklist a particular IP address while a website may blacklist a whole range. In the former case, you (anyone sending email) can't avoid being blacklisted if they abuse email sending rules. The dedicated IP address would be irrelevant. Sending bulk emails through a VPN would be a fraught exercise I think. They can't do it anyway because of SPF and DKIM rules which require the sender to have direct access to the sending server. UDP is an alternative internet protocol to TCP which is used mainly for streaming where errors are tolerable and results in higher speeds. I won't go into a discussion of packet technologies lol. Suffice to say that either protocol is hidden by TLS encryption anyway so I believe that argument is BS anyway. 5 or 10 years ago they may have had a point there but not now.
