While I agree with regards to school shootings, this has a lot of other value as well, such as medical emergencies. I think its great to have a system like this available, I just wish the reasoning behind it was more for those medical emergencies and less because school shootings are all too common…

I’m glad it helped in Georgia. I hope its never needed for the same reason ever again - though with the idiots out there that think guns are more important than kids, its likely my hopes will be dashed soon.

as long as you are mentally sound and store your guns safely

Yeah, that’s a pretty substantial improvement to what we have in the US.

Perfect shouldn’t be the enemy of good.

It will take a lot longer to get proper gun control in place in the US. We’ve already got the GOP and their “Well it sucks, but too bad, move on” rhetoric going.

There is no reason not to minimize risk during the time it will take, even to get to where we we were 20 years ago.

Juuuust about ideal, definitely.

Looks like this is what they have - https://www.centegix.com/crisisalert/

I’m all for gun control. As in, significant reforms, nationwide reforms. Real background checks. Limits on the types of guns. Insurance requirements. Safety training requirements. The list can keep on going…

That said, I’d still want an emergency alert system in schools. There are other threats and other situations where it could be needed, there is nothing wrong with having both.

I can tell you its done in the tristate area.

Maybe its a Georgia thing.

If it doesn’t cover the expected area of concern? No

If you dont know the cause of the issue? No

If you know the issue, and just need to check the state of the esophagus or something? Sure.

Its done for specific reasons, just like an endoscopy is done for specific reasons. When it comes down to it though, it only does a small part of what an endoscopy can do, and with a generic “acid reflux”, its not going to give enough information to diagnose. Its a way to assess symptoms, not a way to diagnose a gastrointestinal problem.

My doctors have been incredible, at least those I’ve had for the past 4 years or so. Including my gastro.

They take the time to talk to me, they remember who I am, and my gastro is even a direct recommendation from my primary doctor (my gastro is his gastro).

I’ve been going to gastroenterologists for literally decades, the one I got a couple years ago is the first to finally find the issue, and I’ve been reflux free. I doubt he’d do a transnasal either - its more limited in scope (hah!), you’re only getting part of what an endoscopy can do. That’s why its not transnasal endoscopy, its transnasal esophagoscopy.

And that’s probably why. Why they wouldn’t just say that, I don’t know. There are lots of places that will do transnasal esophagoscopy throughout the US, so it isn’t a procedure that is just “not done here” or anything, its not as popular in general because its just not as thorough of a procedure.

I hope you find a doctor in the future that takes the time to explain things though.

Edit: Forgot to mention, the hospital system by me is a non profit. Only differentiator I am aware of, and its a great hospital system.

The latest shows as 4 dead, over 30 injured (as of about 5 minutes ago).

Terrifying, depressing, and entirely preventable. I truly despise those who think guns are more important than kids.

This is a second attempt

With no server-side transcoding, yeah the nuc is plenty, but I also run my media server (JF containers, to be specific) on Debian.

If you do end up needing transcoding, the newer Intel stuff is great. I’m considering arc actually for other reasons, but ideally anything skylake (for HEVC) or Kaby Lake (hevc 10 bit) on up is a rock solid choice, no external GPU needed.

That’s what I do, nieces and nephews. They are a bit older than my kids, and their parents are not tech savvy.

I basically have a kids library for anything under PG, and I grab common sense media ratings for a decent estimate on appropriate age, and let them go from there. Then I use tags for what we find appropriate for our kids.

Some of them still use other things I wouldn’t go near (YouTube kids, ffs that place is wild and weird), but that’s their decision not mine.

FWIW I run mine off an 8th gen Intel, igpu for transcoding (though mostly I don’t need to transcoded), on a little lenovo tiny workstation I picked up on the cheap. Storage is on my NAS.

Yup.

I’ve got two kids, the amount of time they get consuming content is limited, the content they have access to is only from my media server (so very curated), and occasional extras like crafting/drawing/etc when we are sitting next to them. And even that I’m moving to the media server due to the ads, which are impossible to really curate and can be very, very odd…

The physical presence of a screen being on is not an issue. Using it as a replacement for parenting is an issue. Especially under 2.

I just wish it wasn’t so much effort to manage content that other parents could do it more easily.

I’ll take that luxury gay space communism any time, but until then…

In a lot of ways I think that’s voting blue no matter who until the regressive party is made irrelevant.

That’s the same for me. One party there is an option for better in the future, the other… Will literally be burning that future in a fire.

A core developer quit and forked it to make freenginx, based on a claim of corporate interference in security practices.

This was about 6 months ago and probably what you are thinking of. Its still open source, there doesn’t seem to be anything that’s come of the issue that was the cause of the split, and nginx is still actively developed.

In NY, and FL goes by the state of the conviction for voter eligibility.

The issue isn’t that he is a felon, but that he didn’t report in after conviction. However, the argument will be that he hasn’t been sentenced yet, because FL will definitely find wiggle room for Trump.

This seems super fun! I’d definitely check it out

Kids can get more than water, its OK to have a treat.
