Didn’t they at one point use a bank of PS3s when they still allowed for Linux boot options?

I can honestly say I learned something from the comment section. I was always taught the .9 repeating was not equal to 1 but separated by imaginary i … Or infinitely close to 1 without becoming 1.

I liked the one where they tested it you could stop a sword by slapping your palms together to stop the swing like in ninja movies They actually built a machine with rubber hands to simulate it. Long and short of it … No you can’t

Bash, zshell, BusyBox…you don’t really need anything else

They make you buy the machine… The data is collected for doctor review, but instead of letting me use the open FOSS reporting, it’s encrypted so that I can’t see my own data.

After that experience I’m certain sleep apnea machines are a huge insurance racket. 45 dollars for a replacement plastic tube…lol

For example, my sleep apnea machine had a wifi for home and a LTE modem. Data gathered by the machine was sent off-site…no reports available on the host. Privacy policy read it would gather info, run diagnostics on itself and the local network without explanation of what it was doing.

My sleep data could not be viewed by me, only through the 3rd party, so I ripped out the wifi board and LTE chip. I haul the machine into my doctor office so he can cycle through data on the tiny display.

He hates it, but I remind him he picked the machine without asking me if I agreed to to the data collection.

So many devices come with those now… I open up my products and remove the card, the antenna, or the whole board if possible.

We had that, but people knew what the delivery driver looked like or maybe reception had a secret list of buddies to notify …whatever. When breakfast was delivered, within 10 seconds, all the vultures in the office pounced in it, leaving nothing.

Anytime pizza was given on Fridays, same vultures would rush to be 1st in line then walk out with a plate stacked with a whole pizza… Rest of us usually got nothing.

Oh ya, I remember that. Luckily all issues are gone. Wifi is stable

Yes you can.

Surprisingly accurate

In Florida, anything under 78 F and 50% humidity is just lovely

If information is ever subject of a subpoena, your phone could be seized as evidence… OS separation doesn’t matter. Just like you wouldn’t check corporate email or keep corp documents on your personal laptop…because your laptop could be seized for any corp legal action

Don’t mix business and personal.

Don’t Install any corp app on a personal phone. No matter what.

Maintain a veil of separation between personal and business. Just say you can’t install it.

They must then provide you with needed hardware.

Just say you don’t have a smartphone…you have a flip phone…doesn’t matter.

And don’t fall for the argument that companies require ties also, they can require cell phones… Not at all same thing.

Any Jesus movie… “Father, Why have you abandoned me? You piece of Shit”

I used to work for a data broker. The main problem here is that profiles are created and compiled from public data. There aren’t any P.I.s at work here… Just massive amounts of data dumps that anyone could access. If you include PII data like socials, then there are limitations on who can view it… But not really that hard to circumvent. A human could not possibly compile profiles from terrabytes of public data, but our programmers could… And this is the real problem. much of this data was public before current computer logic existed and no one foresaw the huge privacy implications.

For my company, only requests that come from persons living in California were honored…and only the person could request removal, not a 3rd party on behalf of the person. Sux.

And FYI, any searches for certain people would be reported to the authorities… Like if you searched Donald Trump with SSN Inclusion, we had to report it to secret service.

The Far Side is strong with this one.

Hey! Gotta no respect!
