Oh,it was thought through very much by some… Some parts of the SVP are very happy about it…

Normally I would ask you what drugs you took to post this.

BUT: This timeline has become so crazy that I absolutely believe this without taking any drugs myself.

Worked as a paramedic around the world for two and a half decades now. Saw a lot of shit.

But the worst one was when I was teamleader of a neonatal critical care transport service. That was…not something I could do for long. There is an amount of dead babies people can see in their lifetime. I ignored my limit and now have to face the consequences.

I don’t think Trump would be worse for them. It might actually part of their strategy.

• While Trump was worse for them back then when he wanted to play “hardass”, it’s a different situation now. He is far more isolationist than before.

• Harris has always backed both Israel and Ukraine. Both things are bad from a Iranian regime POV. For them it is much more desirable if Trump stops aid to Ukraine and Putin wins the war - which will keep Europe occupied for decades, out of their way in the middle east and very likely is favourable in a lot of ways to them. If Putin looses it will very likely mean a regime change in Russia - and the chances that Iran looses their last relevant ally are fairly big.

• The same goes for Israel itself. Trump might have played “nice” with Bibi the last time,but it’s another situation now. If shit hits the fan even more than it does now, Trump will do whatever his base back home likes most. And while most of them are surely deeply against Muslims, they are also/maybe even more antisemitic. And if Trump will do nothing in a situation like that, he wins in the eyes of his powerbase (while Israel and the middle east as a whole looses). The only thing risky for Iran in that situation is the fact that Trump would be far less likely to restrain Bibi. But Bibi is on the way out anyway.

• It might also simply be an “suggestion” from the Iranian “friends” in Moscow to influence things a little. Someone asks for a favour because a second crisis area puts the focus away from ones own front yard. And having an old friend/employee in the oval office surely helps.

• Let’s not forget the perversion of regimes like Iran: A conflict with an old enemy can be a very stabilising factor for a dwindling regime. The lack of restraint Israel showed in Gaza and Libanon put even the more moderate forces in the middle east but also within Iran back on the “Israel is the arch-enemey” line. This is the point where the regime now can unite more moderate parts of their internal as well as external stakeholders behind a common cause with a slight “we told you so!”. That is sadly very much a benefit from a prolonged conflict for them.(Which Trump is far more likely to enable them to sustain)

Anyway: Iran would be surely worse off with Harris - so they might have a lot of incentive to do what they can to get Trump into office.

It sounds strange maybe,but I found Zabbix way easier for these scenarios. For more advanced deployments it is different,but for what you describe it is really easy

They set up a business. They do business. They should ask someone to do this whose business it is. Not you. They are taking advantage of you.

You will certainly and 100% ruin your friendship with them.

• Keeping a server secure is an ordeal for a professional - especially when it comes to using it as a business server.

• Doing E-Mail yourself, especially in a professional capacity, is a god damn nightmare and even most professionals refuse to do it and rather pay someone who handle it. For a reason.

• The usecase you mentioned does not require a server. It can easily be done via a web hosting provider. Unless there is something shaddy going on and you/they are afraid of storing that stuff with a provider. But for what you mention here you need a simple web hosting provider for 5 bucks a month.

• Actually doing that yourself is far more complicated than you imagine here. It’s not just the server. How do you get a connection with a static IPv4 to host your services? Actually preferably multiple static IPs? Are you considering a CloudFlare tunnel? How do you plan redundancy if that connection craps out? Or the server kicks the bucket. Or power goes out? This alone costs FAR more than the money you pay for a cheap webhoster or even a VPS. (Which you don’t need,imho)

For the love of god or whoever: Don’t do that. You will be liable/responsible to them (at least from their point of view) if their IP is on Googlemails blacklist and now “that one important client mail did not arrive in time”. Or if the cheap residential DSL craps out and their very important site is just having the sale of their life?

I am absolutely for self-hosting things, don’t get me wrong. I selfhost basically everything (but no mail…that is a shitshow), mostly on FOSS. But don’t start with someone else’s business if you start doing this. Selfhost a few easy things. Get a Mini PC and proxmox, selfhost within your home network, then expand slowly.

Damn, that is exactly one great to mTuch. If you’re great grandparents (mainly your great grandfather)would be born on German soil it would have been easy.

If your heritage is (even partly)Jewish(or you can prove that there was prosecution for other reasons) and you can prove that they lived in Germany (and left before the war ended) there are special rules and you might be eligible.

How far away are they really? German rules about that are fairly lenient and courts have expanded them a bit recently.

Maybe any other EU country you could qualify for? Ireland is often a route some US citizens take - once you have their passport you are free to move wherever you want.

You sure there is a ‘every four years’ then?

Linux Foundation is a US foundation but Linus lives in the US and is bound by the laws there but depending who wins the vote these sanctions might not matter for long anymore if Putins orange wins.

But he is also still a citizen of Finland- which is bound by very similar EU sanctions. And the Finish police is known to take these things seriously, as do a lot of other EU countries (not all of them,sadly. Hungary and Italy don’t give a shit,for example). So if he fucks things up here he might have two major legal targets painted on his back-both the FBI and a bunch of EU law enforcement agencies under Europol can massively hinder his further travel options.

In the end there is a lot to lose for him and Linux(him being persecuted, companies pulling funding from the association) and little to gain(feeling edgy and being applauded by Russian shills)when he keeps these maintainers.

And tbh, from the outside it looks like a fair process was followed.

Boomer Patients that are not chronically ill but just get into the healthcare system for a rather small malady.

They.are.the.worst.

OPNsense on any small scale dual LAN box, either a used mini PC or a purpose made one.

Any company allowing the unregulated use of these on their devices has a information protection and most likely also an IT security problem. Even more valid for any government security or law enforcement organisation.

BTW: GDPR prohibits this in the EU.

They get destroyed by stomach acids and saliva enzymes. Unlikely to even make it towards First pass.

Maybe we can pool together and get the fellow Lemmy user a prescription for some lithium? Or someone with free healthcare sends him/her a few packages?

If you like the former Soviet romantic a bit and can live with the fact that you are on Russia’s doorstep it’s indeed a very nice country. I had friends there,it’s really nice.

I guess NZ. But it’s just a guess.

That can actually be a sign of sleep apnea.

If you have other symptoms you might want to check that out.

Kind of. I am a CEO (that’s the easy part) of a small consulting company in healthcare.

The hard part is to explain what we actually do: We do consult organisations about (healthcare related) disaster preparedness/risk management and contingency planning. So you call us if you want to have proper plans in case your hospital catches fire, COVID and monkey pox have baby or if you are a city and need to know how to plan for “the day X”. But as we work mainly on a systemic level you can also call us if you need a more intelligence focused plan e.g. “I am going to South Sudan, what do I do if I have an accident?”.

Additionally we also consult for ambulance services, e.g. how to plan vehicle allocation, etc.

Stay away from the combo units. They are shit. And the reduced throughput is a major issue.

A tower design has to have the washer below the dryer, as the washer is creating more vibrations and simply weighs more.

Not all manufacturers allow a dryer to be placed upon their washers and not all washers have a big enough top.

Some (Bosch-Siemens-Appliances does i.e.) do offer specialised “tops” that you can use and that are working quite well. (Example

Personally I would put another lashing strap around the combination, though,just to be extra safe, especially if you have children or pets.

Other than that the combination works without a problem,we have been using that for around 15 years by now, only interrupted by our experiments with combo machines.
