AI will get more and more powerful as time goes on. Office and IT jobs are doomed.

To any young people reading this: consider a trade like plumbing or electical work. Or, if working as a health care professional has ever crossed your mind: try Chiropractic College! After an undergraduate degree (and even that isn't always necessary), you can become a Doctor in 3-4 years depending on which chiropractic college you attend.

The money is good, the work is very rewarding, and you can go home after a long day at the office knowing you've improved the health of potentially dozens of people every day.

A doctor's job is AI-proof!

It's a proven fact that Type 1 diabetes is a disease caused by an immune system that is out of alignment. It sees the pancreas as a foreign tissue invader and attacks the pancreas.

Intensive chiropractic treatments will destroy all the vertebral subluxations in the patient's spine and allow the nerve impulses to travel unhindered through the body's main nerve conduit. When that happens, the body's immune system goes back to proper functioning and no longer attacks the pancreas.

It can take up to two years of daily chiropractic care to reach this point. After that all the patient requires are maintenance adjustements once or twice a week.

Type 2 diabetes can be managed with daily chiropractic adjustments, but the patient must first make lifestyle changes to reduce or eliminate the need for vertebral adjustments.

Take care,

To me the hoops that smoothbrains will jump through to avoid IPv6 and stay on legacy IPv4, especially when hosting, is pathetic. NAT, port forwarding, tunnels, blah blah blah blah.

I have something like ~1.2 trillion times the number of routable addresses that the entire IPv4 space has. Not all are reachable, of course, just the services that need incoming access and they're each on their own isolated DMZ.

Forgot to add: if you enable IPv6, be sure to use the browser extension IPvFoo. It shows a small 4 or 6 in your URI bar to let you know what protocol you're connecting to. Once enabled, you'll see just how much stuff out there actually is IPv6.

Started the move about 18 months ago when I decided to get off my lazy ass. My ISP gives out a /56 prefix, so that lets me run 256 /64 subnets/VLANs in the house, currently there are ~10 in use. Everything get a GUA through SLAAC and I use RAs (Router Advertisements) to give ULAs to everything. Any external facing services get their own VLAN and /64 for the system(s) as needed. Firewall blocks all incoming as they usually do by default and I punch a hole for the external-facing systems. They can't reach back into the network, they only answer the phone. All the systems update DNS dynamically if the prefix or full address ever change.

I have an SSH bastion set up. In all this time there has not been a single SSH attempt from the internet. On IPv4 it was constant background noice.
For those legacy IPv4-only systems on the internet, I set up NAT64. I have an IoT VLAN and IoT 2.4 GHz wireless network that are only IPv4 because a lot of IoT network stacks are junk.

I'm still farting around with it, but man oh man, there's no way I'd go back to IPv4. It was one of the best moves I've done in ages.

Is wireguard working?

UDP on a random port?

It's well documented that mobile cellular radio waves (radiation) causes brain tumors. If this outage continues for any length of time, watch the brain tumor rates in Moscow actually drop by 80%-90% in 8-10 years then jump back up in lockstep with the timeframe of the cellular system being re-enabled.

I know two chiropractors in Moscow and they are ecstatic about this. The number of vertebral subluxations which impeded the immune system and allow cancers to flourish have been increasing as people become more and more glued to their mobile devices.

Take care,

I'm not seeing a paywall on the site. uBlock Origin must be doing something.

The UHF app on our Apple TVs & iOS devices and the UHF Server in Docker to act as a PVR gives us everything for a few $ a month paid in crypto.
We haven't had cable since ~1999-2000. Downloading and the *arrs have kept us happy, but the better half wanted to check out some live sports. So IPTV it was.

One of our guys said something to the effect of "Copilot is Corporate Chat. It knows all the useless filler of management-speak, but lacks the competence of the people in the trenches.

Ouch.

I've used Claude at home for ages. Work was wanting to get some AI stuff for us and the only 'blessed' one is CoPilot. Everything else it blocked. All senior management seems to know about AI is "Hurrr... Copilot and ChatGPT."

Out team of ~8 (pentestesting & VA) were unanimous about Copilot being crap and Claude being the top dog. So some higher ups OK'd a Claude Teams package for work. To bypass the CorpSec tards, we use it from our lab environment that has its own unmonitored link and IP range.

Anthropic/Claude is just so far ahead of OpenAI/ChatGPT and MS/Copilot it's not funny.

Are there eels in your hovercraft?

I'm old enough to know a Monty Python reference when I see one. But I don't get the context here.

Not ChatGPT. I have been here on Slashdot.org offering healthcare advice for close to 15 years.

When the disastrous Fukushima meltdown happened, a small group of health care professionals I am a member of called Chiropractors Without Borders offered to fly to Japan as an emergency response team.

Most people alive today have health-robbing vertebral subluxations which can affect everything from balance to fertility. A subluxated person is far more likely to have issues with radiation negatively affecting them, especially things like the thyroid.

Japan denied our request.

I would hope they learned their lesson and will have on-site chiropractic care for those workers who were inadvertantly exposed to deadly radiation. A worker who handles a radioactive rod without protection may die in days without immediate and focused chiropractic treatments.
