Fry's is a regional grocer that was bought out by the national conglomerate Kroger. Kroger is the largest grocery chain in the US. I live in one of the US's 2 biggest seasonal growth regions and the produce at the 'supermarket' is abysmal. For half of the year the farmers outlet is open and I can get super fresh whatever is in the fields. When the farms move to Salinas I am stuck with brown lettuce and shitty tomatoes, and green bannanas.

Rule 99: "Trust is the biggest liability of all."

The Fry's (Kroger) near where I live now has robots in the parking lot retrieving carts. They didn't get rid of anyone because all their courtesy clerks left and went to work InstaCart I think.

In June, over $500,000 worth of bourbon was stolen out from under the nose of a warehouse in Phildelphia. The first paragraph:

Later in the story, the explanation for how this happened is nearly identical to these tech thefts:

Newman said investigators believe the theft may be tied to a "complex ring" targeting high-value consumer products. The perpetrators appeared to impersonate an existing trucking company, using a company name, phone number and other details to gain trust and secure the load, he said.

"They basically try and look like, sound like ⦠a legitimate trucking company," Newman said. "They spoof the company name, they spoof the trucking dispatcher."

In the company's news release, it said the theft appeared to have been carried out with knowledge of "logistics operations and product movement schedules," suggesting planning and coordination.

The last time I interacted with turnitin, I could easily see its shortcomings. That software is made to look for cheating and plagiarism. That works well for essays, but for math you're looking at a square peg - round hole problem. There are a lot of different ways to write a paragraph on an historical figure. There are only so many ways to solve a given practice math problem. It's easy to show that a history student copy / pasted from wikipedia, it's very difficult to show if a math student came up with the correct math answer on their own or googled it.

The proper way to asses learning in a math class is a live in-person test. Homework should be for the students to practice their learning, and if they choose to not learn while doing it that will be seen on the exam.

The nanny Finnish government made a mistake ? for profit no less damn...they are as human as the rest of us. I figured Elon would Heil them into helping him...you know for old times sake...

"This is more Finland problem than Google fault."
Just because no one stopped Google from committing ecological terrorism doesn't make them less culpable.

That's not my tears you are lapping up Cuck. It is salty though...

There was a brief cyber-cafe game place here but it crashed and burned very quickly. It that still a thing in Asia or Europe ? There is an old time arcade with pinball and stuff that seems to keep chugging along though.

* Had employees already been through some basic anti-phishing training?

Every year we are required to take anti-phishing training. It's about 20 minutes long and gives examples of what to look for. You also have to take "tests" at the end to see if you learned anything.

Fortunately, for us, the phishing emails IT sends out are fairly easy to recognize if you take a few seconds to look at them. You don't even have to hover over any links.

I recently started tt-rpg again with the new D&D. Getting back to pen and paper is really refreshing and fun. Check your local game shop, or college for active gaming groups. Oddly all the players are older folks with a even breakdown in men/women. All the younger folks play MtG or some other card based game. I think Pathfinder might be the rpg for that genre.

And I bet you'd love it if we didn't have Russian diesel... imagine what your head of Mexican lettuce would cost.

The same. The first delivery of diesel amounts to 2.5 hours of diesel usage in the U.S. The total delivery comes out to about 3 days worth.

Yeah, totally fantastic to support a dictator deliberately targeting civilians to get for 3 days of fuel. It's sure to substantially drive down costs.

I agree but user awareness is critical and they have the memory span of Dory the goldfish. If you don't keep the problem in the spotlight they will forget before first coffee break.

Email clients could make this problem MUCH easier to deal with if they would just show the DOMAIN instead of overlaying the address with a title that is wholly made up. If you could see that your MS support email came from iamfuckinghack.com and not microsucks.com it would help. The mobile email clients are TERRIBLE in this manner and almost part of the problem hiding the true email address. Hell your client should point out those discrepancies when the mail is received.

It may just be me but I don't want ANYTHING to do with Elon Musk. Fuck him and his cars and his spaceships all in one fast steroid filled gross mess that looks vaguely human.
