For three years, #H5N1 bird flu viruses have been raging in the USA – unchecked. Now the numerous #mistakes and #failures in containing the virus are taking their toll. Experts are increasingly concerned.

I had Twitter then too, but it was for the instant news. I had two or three accounts there, one was an influencer account that filled my doorstep with expensive products for my Klout Score.
But I dropped that account, to get a Social one.
And all was going well, I had preblocked Muskhole before he owned it. I didn't need to wait, I knew he'd never be someone I'd follow. And I left after he bought it. Google failed at every social network they tried. #Google #Failures

"This is a confession. I love daytime TV. I smoke, even though I officially gave up years ago. I’m often late, and usually lie about why. And sometimes I feel good when others feel bad.

"The Japanese have a saying: “The misfortunes of others taste like honey.” […] In Hebrew enjoying other people’s catastrophes is 'simcha la‑ed'."

Literary Hub · Not Just a German Word: A Brief History of SchadenfreudeLast Tuesday, I went to the corner shop to buy milk, and found myself pausing by the celebrity gossip magazines. And my first instinct, just in case someone was listening in on my thoughts, was to …

State and election officials from across the country issued a ⭐️warning Wednesday that ongoing concerns with the country's mail system could #disenfranchise #voters.

#Mail-in #voting has become more popular since the pandemic but officials have persistently warned that the U.S. Postal Service has struggled with #delivery #failures.

The latest warning from the National Association of Secretaries of State and the National Association of State Election Directors comes as a number of states are set to
👉begin early votingthis month.

🔥A host of problems with the mail delivery system have been evident over the past year, the two groups wrote in a letter to U.S. Postmaster General #Louis #DeJoy Wednesday.

These include receiving mailed ballots that had been postmarked on time arrive after the deadline to be counted
and instances in which ballots that were correctly addressed were returned to voters as undeliverable.

"We have not seen improvement or concerted efforts to remediate our concerns," despite repeated outreach efforts to USPS, the groups wrote.

"We implore you to take immediate and tangible corrective action ... failure to do so will risk limiting voter participation and trust in the election process," they said.

While mail-in voting is likely to be less prevalent this year than it was in 2020, both parties have embraced encouraging voters to cast their ballots early via mail.


Trump spent years disparaging early voting as "corrupt," earlier this year he and several GOP groups embraced mail-in voting.

Democrats, on the other hand, welcomed vote-by-mail efforts in 2020 and now enjoy a large mail-in voting advantage in swing states

Fuuuuuuck.

Bought an LSI 9211-8i to host my software raid because that seemed to be the recommended card for this sort of thing.

Turns out, modern versions of linux have deprecated the fucking driver and I can't find a way to get this to work. So, after spending HOURS rebuilding this server (New MB, memory, etc.), I have to put back the old shit because this simply won't work. And I can't even leave the new MB in there because it doesn't have enough on-board SATA connectors for the drives I have.

FUCK FUCK FUCK.

*sigh*

As someone with a common name... this lack of qualified searching has affected me in the past (even 2 weeks ago).

I feel sorry for anyone with similar name that gets drawn into this, because talking heads AND staff do not confirm their data.

“Small projects rule.” I’ve learned this over and over. And over.

1 - Salient engineering and design details matter in small projects. Big projects would rather talk about the budget.

2 - Small projects seem to allow CIO/CTO’s (and the project manager) to adopt a listen and learn approach. Big projects show less respect, wrestling or controlling the technical team rather than supporting their moves.

3 - Coordination and communication complexity and friction is lower in a small project.

And that last one REALLY matters.

[Editorial] #H5N1: #international #failures and uncomfortable #truths thelancet.com/journals/lancet/

If you ask an infectious diseases specialist whether we should start worrying about influenza A H5N1, they will probably tell you that we should always be worrying about it. An influenza pandemic has long topped the list of global threats to health, and avian influenza poses a particularly serious concern.

#Screenshots of email responses from #BCgovernment #PublicHealth representatives

This is to deal with massive #failures by #BCNDP #BCgovernment over my now deceased Dad, getting #covid infection in hospital, how #BCEMERGENCYCOMMS failed our family & put extra #traumas on us by sending antimasker cops(lead cop is #SaanichPD #PoliceUnion president) to #abuse badge powers.

I will NEVER forget the night my Dad died with extra trauma from #antimasker #cops! I want some form of JUSTICE!

We have 100% #Proof and #Evidence that the #State of #ISRAEL has Stolen your #Personal_Data as well as your #Intellectual_Property Worldwide. (#Oracle a #Jewish_Owned #Fortune 500 Company)

But know one asks us ever for the evidence or Proof.. NO ONE?? Confirmation of an #Illegal Major #Concealment & COVER-UP #CRIME(s) over the last 7,300 days / 2 decades / 20 years??

Do not use #USPTO #Patent_office for anything. #Trade_Secret_Everything (SECURE CODE BEHIND PRYING EYES IN-HOUSE SERVER SIDE) or lose everything--your choice?

..and these are Blatant LIES and more HYPE by #Israeli Controlled Mainstream News Outlets in our USA #Homeland NO LESS? Called #CNBC..

Don’t be Fooled folks you are listening to #ISRAELI #Propaganda via Proxy Propaganda Machine out of CNBC (#WAR_PROXY) = aka #Israeli_ZIONISTS.

There is #NO #AI; its all #FAKE! Google’s #BARD >> Renamed to #Gemini #DEMO was also #FAKED! They don’t know what to call themselves since all are #failures. Like Elon Musk everything the #JEWS #touch will #FAIL!

All they know how to do IS CHANGE THE NAME and RE-BRAND the same TECH through HYPE under a different name over and over again (LIKE #PARROTS) to cover their #UNENDING_FAILURES! And that my friends is the REAL TRUTH behind Israeli #AI_TECH. They sacrificed 1200 (WALL BEACHED SECURITY WAS 100% ALGORITHMS w/o Human assistance Is Proof of MAJOR #IN_COMPETENCIES) of their own Citizens for Software tech that was easily #COMPROMISED.

#ANYONE could have #BREACHED that #WALL--NOT just #HAMAS!

After-all #Colonial_Pipeline was Using a Compromised (WEAK) #Password. Any #UNETHICAL_HACKER could get in. Why? Because there is no code (AI is a Fantasy) >> on the planet that can operate and/or function as intended UNSUPERVISED >> WITHOUT 24/7 #HUMAN_SUPERVISION. Proof Israeli's Engineers #GRANDIOSE_CLAIMS Murdered their own Citizens! (DavidV exp. 200K Project management hours under belt since 1999)

bloomberg.com/news/articles/20

They #MURDERED their own people--if the #TRUTH BE #TOLD! And the Jewish Citizens TRUSTED them and many unfortunately were Killed >> then tried to place the #FLACCID_INCOMPETENCY ON #HAMAS AND PUNISHMENT w/ Vengeance against the #palestinian people—like as if they had something to do with it... UGH!

At the cost of 26,500 murdered innocent Victims (Civilians NO LESS)?? How much does the Israeli/s Zionist Value an American Life?? I will answer it for you.. $0.00 USD!

But they need our #Tax_Dollars to Survive?? Who wants to pay taxes now to FUND GENOCIDE of Children!?

After #NETAN_YAHOO! Incited the Murder of his last running mate; calling him and #NAZI when in-fact #NETAN_YAHOO! is the murdering #Nazi_Hitler! Responsible. In charge of the United States of America??

You are all LUNATICS! Sexual immorality >> Murder >> Mental Illness. The path you have chosen.

This could be MORE #Fake_Propaganda--as well, for all we know??.. You See folks how can you #TRUST anything or anyone when Israel and #USA has just committed #Genocide while the #WORLD TURNS A #BLIND EYE.

#BRAIN_DEAD_ZIONISTS = THE #UNITED_STATES OF #AMERICA AND HERE IS #PROOF!

Google’s new #Gemini_AI_model (aka #FAKED!) is getting a mixed reception after its big debut last month, but users may have #less_confidence in the company’s #tech or #integrity after #finding_out that the most impressive #demo of #Gemini WAS PRETTY MUCH #FAKED!

ACTUAL #FAKED_VIDEO HERE: Hands-on with #Gemini: #Interacting?? ( #BULLSH*T! ) with #FAKE_COPYCAT AI..??

Just 2 #BIG problems:

1. The #video isn’t #real. “We created the demo by capturing footage in order to test #Gemini’s capabilities on a wide range of challenges. Then we prompted Gemini using still image frames from the footage, and prompting via text.” (#Parmy_Olson was the first to #report the #discrepancy.)

2. #Google is #Poisoning their #OWN_DATA Rendering #AD_WORDS #ADVERTISING Targeting #OBSOLETE! Aka USELESS ..And they don’t even know it...
