RE: Does Office 365 Support Plus Notation in Email (+)
@jaredbusch Youre giving fools too much credit. You and scott always say things like spoofing voip #s or removing this + notation is trivial. Yet nobody does it. Nobody does it because the people running the scam or the marketeer selling your email address arent competent, at all, and never will be. Its why they run scams and sell email addresses.

RE: Does Office 365 Support Plus Notation in Email (+)
@jaredbusch Yes, it really is a stupid feature. Only valid reason to do this is to find out who distributes your email address after you sign up for some site or mailing list.

RE: Best way to install PHP, SQL Server Express, IIS on Windows Server 2016?
What version of php is it using now? Hope it is at least 5.something
Copying this site to a newer iis is trivial. I did this with an old 2000 web application here, I had to change some permissions after the move, but it wasn't difficult. -

RE: Gaming - What's everyone playing / hosting / looking to play
@dafyre Ive always wanted to try it as well but never have. Im just not sure how ES it can be with the MMO parts. Like im supposed to be the incarnation of some super hero/godlike thing(like in all ES games) but in ESO everybody else is like that too. I also don't think you can kill entire townfuls of npc like in the offline games.

RE: Error creating project, XSRF check failed on Jira
Welcome to Jira https. I did this awhile ago but not using a proxy.
Never understood their fascination with using ports other than 80 and 443.
On the jira server, what is
ss -atun
showing?I think the redirectPort=8443 option is causing this issue. This option is present in both connector options, and you arent using it.

RE: Discussing Basic Income from Forbes Article
@penguinwrangler
You seem to have a basic misunderstanding of what GBI is.As well as some unfounded bias that Red states contribute more than Blue states. In fact the exact opposite is true. I think if you do some actual research youll find most of your opinions on governance are wrong.
Every single "Red state' is dependent on "Blue states" for money. Yes this means places like WV, KY, FLA, all of them depend on places CA WA NY, DE. You can actually look this up.

This is wrong; starting in a few years when automation takes over everything. I dont think you understand the scale of the next round of automation in the workplace. 19/20 jobs driving, gone.
Automation doesn't "take jobs". It provides more jobs, actually.
Explain what the 25 people working at your local McDonalds will be doing in 10 years when a couple robot burger flippers replace their entire work crew.

Taxes are similar. Tax reporting could be standardized and made automatic. Tell the government your details, pay your taxes. Same for everyone. But that would destroy an industry. So they don't, they make taxes convoluted so that people essentially have to either buy software or pay accountants to do work that shouldn't exist. It's all busy work just to create jobs.
Sure there are industries that will fade away, happens all the time. To think that the economy won't come up with jobs that don't even exist right now to fill the void is a little ludicrous. I mean Information Technology didn't exist when my parents were in school.
This is wrong; starting in a few years when automation takes over everything. I dont think you understand the scale of the next round of automation in the workplace. 19/20 jobs driving, gone. That is millions of jobs just in the US. Fast food workers, gone in ten years. You arent replacing hundreds of millions of trucking and McDs and other manufacturing jobs with 'robot repairman' jobs. Especially since the robots will likely be throwaway cheap disposable like ipads and cell phones.
Like you say, many of these types of people dont want to learn anything, ever, like your dad(your words). Youd rather have those people starving in the streets with no income and no home? -

@penguinwrangler He's certainly not demeaning blue collar jobs.
He is demeaning the useless paper pushing jobs that don't do anything.
Like half of the people at any given office get paid to do.
You know, the paper pushers who do paperwork, then push that pile of paper (real or electronic) down the line for someone else to do more paperwork and then they push that on down the line. The people who have jobs simply because that the boss wont automate, find out that they go to weekly cult meetings together. The people whose entire existence is to do nothing but show up and collect a paycheck. the one that needs constant validation after completing the most menial task.OHHHH...but wait it says "If a cleaner or bus driver doesn’t report for work, it hurts other people. (These Graeber terms “shit” jobs.)" So calling blue collar jobs shit jobs isn't demeaning?
@penguinwrangler Not sure what your point is. Those Are 'shit' jobs. Dont believe me, go ask your dad if he would have rather gone to school and got a engineering degree or maybe physics, or work cleaning toilets his whole life?
Likely anybody in the world who works as one would like to have a different job. But at least those jobs are doing actual work, getting things done. The useless office worker paper pusher is accomplishing nothing at all, except wasting their life but pushing piles of paper around. Also, I think youre misunderstanding the author here. He doesn't apply bullshit term to cleaners and such. He applies this to the people I mention, paper pushers, financial advisers, etc. He actually says 'shit' jobs like cleaning toilets is more valuable than a financial adviser, one of his 'bullshit' job types. -

The ones here were from Xi3 who went bankrupt a few years ago. They made super small form factor lower powered x86/amd64 computers. The ones we had were smaller than a 3.5" hdd.
