    what works for you to learn large numbers of technical / medicinal jargon?

    Jump

  • That's what I ended up studying for a while there - because most medical jargon is "on elbow inflammation" (epicondylitis) or "appendix inflammation" (appendicitis), etc in latin.

  • PVC fell out of use in the 2000s, most buildings use PEX now; but I don't know how that compares.

  • Yep, even metal-canned sodas have a plastic liner on the inside of them.

  • Why is electricity not part of the classical alchemical elements? (Earth, Fire, Wind, Water)

    Jump

  • I mean, what is "Aether" in a historical/classical context? Would that fit?

    Edit: I guess not. Aether seems to be more like...'dark matter' or 'gravity' than electricity.

  • If I could get a VPS for $2/mo for something like this, I would definitely swap off of my VPN provider. If you do a 'build your own plan' with Windscribe, it's $2/month for me, and they easily saturate my symmetrical gigabit connection. Anything close to that price is usually an incredibly small amount of metered bandwidth comparatively. This month I've used something like 30tb worth of bandwidth without blinking an eye.

  • Encrypted volume? If so, that's why.

  • Nobody mad. Didn't hurl an insult at you, didn't crawl in the mud with you and act like a child. But you couldn't stand your own ignorance, and you had to lash out because you didn't understand. Tried explaining it to you, and you doubled down. No reason for me to be mad at you wanting to remain ignorant.

  • You have no clue whatsoever how internet security works, do you... and also anyone who has used a VPN will tell you that this is how it works. The instant you're behind a VPN, you're part of a block of IP addresses which are generally reserved for datacenter usage.

    There's some exceptions to this, as some VPNs are kinda shady and route through residential IP addresses, but a lot of the time when someone is trying to get around an IP ban, region lock, etc -- they're going to use VPNs. So companies the world over block VPN IP ranges by default for that very reason.

    This is why you get the captcha requirements, this is why you're clicking pictures of busses non-stop.

  • Doesn't happen to me, but I don't browse behind a VPN. People behind VPNs get this usually because lots of bad actors also hide behind VPNs.

  • How often do you downgrade Firefox versions or workaround issues?

  • I really wish "Know your Customer" laws applied to corporations. We should be able to determine their structure and who they work with. None of this is transparent and it should be.

  • Minecraft really needs a mod system like ARK: Survival Ascended. I really hate Forge/Fabric so much because of this requirement that host/server match all their version numbers, but no mechanics to be able to do it within the client.
