Ugh, feel this so hard recently - the most expensive, most thinly stretched health care system in the developed world. I pay through the teeth for this shit and nothing is ever covered, out of pocket costs are still insane, even for injuries. Now we get yearly out of pocket deductibles you must meet before they start covering things - literally designed to discourage you from getting care so they can collect premiums and provide as little as possible.

My provider recently changed it so that my yearly checkup isn’t with my MD primary care physician, they hire a staff of PAs who handle checkups now which I’m sure is much cheaper and guarantees nobody pays a fuckin second off attention to long term care.

Fuck this for-profit bullshit, so frustrating to have to battle with base unadulterated greed when trying to get basic preventive care to make sure we don’t die early from something stupid.

I’ve asked for help finding API endpoints that do what I want because I’m feeling too lazy to pour over docs and it’ll just invent endpoints that don’t exist

Ty for your work! ❤️

You really took the time to comment and complain that you’ve already seen this? You’re… upset that your time was wasted?

Buddy. Cmon.

I don’t know this for sure but getting airdrop to work on a win machine might not result in the most stable solution - it looks like most of the solutions are open source projects which are fun but idk if I would personally trust them to be working 100% of the time when you need it at the end of class.

I think it’s a decent option to consider if you can get your hands on an actual Apple device to test with, imho. Airdrop is fairly proprietary and made hard to integrate with by Apple on purpose in my opinion. The other thing to consider is how big the files are - if you use an airdrop receiver you will need enough space on it to hold everyone’s files.

I really liked the email idea someone had too - if the students have their own email addresses they could email their projects to themselves. Same consideration there though, if the files are too big you might piss off the IT guy.

Two more spitballs-

Do the students have any network storage that the IT guy could help get mapped on the ipads?

Does the school have any remote learning type software that students can turn assignments in electronically? Could see if that software has an ipad app that adds a “share to” option when exporting a project? Long shot but maybe

Ooh, i like making them airdrop it to a host machine, that’s one-way. Only deal is that you have to manually order and expose it via network, or restore it later manually both of which are a little untenable 🤔

It’s not an elegant solution but I know they make USB sticks with lightning connectors, could maybe find a way to make them back their projects up to it at the end of the day? Unsure if this works with garage band tho, just brainstorming

I’ve had success filling such pans with water and a single drop of dish soap then boiling it

Jesus fucking christ, he has so much money that he has the ability to make his inability to accept that his kid is trans the entire fucking world’s problem.

Ruined Twitter because he’s a giant piss baby that can’t deal with his kid telling him “No, I won’t do what you say and you can’t force me to.”

Capitalism is the fucking best, let me tell you what.

Blasphemy, that’s not regex that’s just fancy grep

Yup, they started to force me to drive to an office where none of the people I work with are, now that’s the only place I do work for them.

Used to think about and work on projects after hours if I found them interesting or realized a solution I hadn’t thought of. They’ve shown me they don’t care about my comfort, so I don’t feel the need to care about their problems either. The work will be there tomorrow.

They’re so divorced from reality that they think we’d just give up extra hours of our lives for commuting and keep up the same work output. Fuckin nope, going switch to doing the bare minimum it takes to keep you signing checks.

Big bag of frozen nuggies ftw

Dawww

Here’s a fun follow up - she recently took me and my SO to the gun range and taught us to shoot! We armed and fabulouss~ 🤣💁

Not trans but I think I definitely accidentally gave my recently out friend one of these moments. We had hung out in larger groups a bit pre-transition then a mutual friend invited a bunch of folks over for a bbq and she came presenting fem and I straight up introduced myself to her. We definitely had had at least a few hours of chatting directly with her in boymode but did not recognize her at all. 😅

Never seen someone smile so widely in my life. I was mortified but now in hindsight she probably fist-pumped over it later. 🤣💜

You’re pretty! 🤩

for X in $(seq -f host%02g 1 9); do echo $X; ssh -q $X “grep the shit”; done

:)

But yeah fair, I do actually use a big data stack for log monitoring and searching… it’s just way more usable haha

Dawww, congrats! 🍾🎉

Yah, my app gave me an invalid password message and I was like oh god who did I piss off 🤣

Ty to the admins for bringing it back up 🙏

Woo!! 🥳
