      Rush - The Spirit of Radio Live -- Youtube

      Rush - The Sprit of Radio.png

      I've always loved Prog Rock. YES, The Moody Blues, Davie Bowie, so many more.
      However, there's just something about 3 piece bands that amaze me like The Police or ZZ Top. And Rush is up there as one of my all time favorites.

      Sweetwater Et Tu, Brute double brut IPA. And there's King Crimson playing, so double win.

      I have the 'In the Court of the Crimson King' LP. I paid like maybe....$2.50ish. Awsome stuff

      I need that one for the collection. I have an old print of Lark's Tongues in Aspic that I've nearly worn out in 25 years, wouldn't mind getting a better copy. Got to see them last year on tour... no words can describe that experience.

      They came to Pittsburgh last year. I didn't get to see them. Some luck.

      I haven't checked,.... does DP do 4k?
      My brother wants to do a home build and he has a 4k projector.

      Yes. His 4K projector uses DP?

      Dunno. I have to ask him.

      If you're trying to link a path to a drive, I think that subst might work or even psubst. I haven't used it in years.

      Honestly, I have never worked at a single company where IT supports printers, other than initial setups.

      Must be fucking nice that the accountants are installing toner and removing paper jams.

      Smart accountants know that IT handling printers is a waste of fucking money. Why pay someone $100k+ a year and have them work on printers?

      You breaka you fixa

      The issue with the super cheap toner (IME) is that it clumps together causing jams or streaks on the paper. So you replace it, even if it still has "plenty of life" just so you can continue and end up spending more money on more toner faster.

      Preaching to the choir here. We have people here that step over dollars to pick up a penny.

      We crawl over our dollars.

    • RE: Random Thread - Anything Goes

      @scottalanmiller said in Random Thread - Anything Goes:

      @Obsolesce but is there any major religion that makes scientific claims? This is something people say all of the time, but I actually don't think it's a thing. People who claim to be religious and claim to follow a religion often make their own claims about scientific things and lie about it being based on their faith, but that's extremely different than the religion itself saying it. There are plenty of tiny cults that have sprung up around any number of false "scientific" beliefs, that is obvious. But of major world religions, I'm pretty sure that this kind of stuff is just avoided.

      Example... a region or local sect claiming to be Christian might claim X about dinosaurs, but Christianity as a whole has no opinion on the matter and leaves it entirely to science.

      Discovery of the Barometer

      Although tangential, I find this interesting that the discovery of the barometer is a good example of how science in the shadow of religion can shine through. If I remember correctly, there was, at the time, the belief that there was no such thing as nothing, and by extension, a vacuum. "God created everything, he didn't create nothing." Yet, it was by creating a vacuum or nearly so, that the barometer was created. It helped change the thinking of the time.

      I realize that this is tangential, but....
      The area around Portland is awesome. I used to spend a lot of time there in the 80's.
      I've had lunch at the Timberline Lodge on Mount Hood, cruised the Columbia River Gorge, stopped at Multnomah Falls, the fish ladder at the dam, Pittock Mansion, the Grotto, the navy shipyards, .... there's a lot to do. The scenery is great.

      I suspect the "hard" part is going to be digesting all of the various configuration options for MC so that I install it securely with a proper Let's Encrypt certificate.

      That's me. The wife has been ill lately and my free time isn't as free.

      Free time? What's that?

      It's very expensive

      my physicians don't use the same device all the time, they move constantly. Plus they won't even log out of the EHR when they leave an area, why would they bother to log out of LP?

      Because, I don't know, HIPAA?

      Don't get me started.

      Drs who practice out and out hate HIPAA - borderline don't give a shit about your privacy... they care about having whatever whenever as easy as possible. Many of them don't see the benefit to privacy/security.

      I did a camera installation for a doctor purchased from CostCo - maybe $350 because HIPAA. Checked his office PC's. All running XP, transacting over the internet after 7 had been out for over 5 years. Got him a quote for all 8 workstations updated to 7 and a mini server with backups for around $8k. He turned red, choked and almost died on the spot.
