Comment Chiropractic helps with over 85% of female inferti (Score -1, Offtopic) 243

Chiropractic care will gently eliminate health-robbing vertebral subluxations. That will allow your nerve impulses to flow freely to your ovaries and cervix, providing countless health benefits.

You'll need a larger house after a few years of treatments!

Take care,

Comment Alzheimer's? Chiropractic! (Score 0) 59

It's been known for over 120 years that chiropractic treatments can eliminate life-stealing vertebral subluxations from the spine.

That translates directly into neurological health. Alzheimer's patients should seek immediate chiropractic care to help them correct their brain misalignments.

I had one patient who kept forgetting my name, near the end I was treating her in her palliative care area. But she never once forgot to pay me. That is the power of chiropractic!

Journal Journal: It is 2025 and Slashdot doesn't support IPv6?

I've been migrating all my stuff to IPv6 because I'm retarded and felt like (another) winter project.

So I have a Debian VM that is IPv6-only for testing things out, general browsing, etc. and see that Slashdot doesn't support IPv6? One would think a tech site would have been onboard with this years ago.

I never said it should be. At this stage, if I've lost my phone it would make sense that I need to phone the consulate and have my old passport revoked as it was stored on there. What they do then is a risk decision based upon the issuing government.

Once I've done that, (I would assume) I need to prove my identity through copies of my old passport, biometrics or whatever the embassy / consulate / high commission needs to prove my identity, before I can download another one. By the time that they implement all that though, biometrics and other information might be strong enough that this can be automated.

With the state of technology now, what's happening with phone theft and financial fraud, I would say that I wouldn't trust a phone by itself to be a sole arbitrator of a person's identity, there would need to be another factor for authentication, but perhaps technology will change where the whole screen will become a hand / palm reader? Maybe it will be good enough in the near future. I don't know what's going to happen in 10 years time....

When digital passports are made public (Which they aren't at the moment) I happily will.

In the same way that if I lost my card, I'd have to call my bank, if I lost my phone (Or my physical passport!) I'd still have to call the consulate... So yeah, sure, not a bother. That's the point.

At that point, I might have to get an emergency passport (Which don't have chips typically) to get home, or just buy a replacement phone and download my passport and off I go again!

I don't see why you're being so argumentative. Things change.
