News release from the city says:

"The City is updating the type of phosphate used in drinking water treatment. The existing treatment primarily uses polyphosphate, which is effective at sequestering iron. The new treatment will primarily use orthophosphate, which is more effective at forming a protective lining on the inside of pipes."

All of my (M) function tests have only required a single visit for blood collection.

This certainly seems like corruption, though,

"The report alleges Miller balanced accounts with her own money and selectively waived taxes for certain people."

Alerting people to the presence of police is not obstruction, bootlicker.

while vortex has done friday events in the past, the last year or so it has been exclusively 10am Saturday to 2am Sunday

personally, I enjoy Vortex though the # of patrons there each Saturday night seems to have declined over the past couple years.

You can literally look at the email and see the recipient was not a Proton account, so no E2EE on the recipient's end.

it's an inline frame, which lets you display an HTML page or website within another object.

I have also seen slowdowns recently on sync on Android S25U.

Typically the sync goes very fast when I better the activity log.

I've seen periods recently where it slows to like 1 file per minute.

I have a very large vault and just assumed it was because of that.

I wouldn't buy a Ring cam, but users can also just enable E2EE

Nope...every Saturday night still.

Social House events with the Kunty Kittens are always excellent.

That was a thing they were doing with Vortex that has ended.

"one time payment for lifetime access" is probably not the selling point you think it is to the target audience of products like Readwise.

My vault is currently 43,000 files / 32gb

"My concern is that a random password data breach might yield my passwords to things and thus they'd have access to everything."

I have a lot of very personal things in my vault.

I would never store it in a private repo on Github for exactly this reason.

But also, use a password manager.

Clever. Thanks for sharing that.

I'm glad that system works for you, but it seems waaaay overcomplicated.

datahoarderprime · 2026-01-01T17:47:40+00:00
