They mention archiving a bunch of Trump stuff, but are they just focusing on conservatives? There's a bunch of misinformation on both sides, and if they're really after the truth, they should be paying the same amount of time and

Most of the DICOM providers I've worked with assume that the clinic will be handling security, as the images are stored on a local DICOM server, though lately there's been much more emphasis on setting up a VPN between the clinic

There's nothing novel about sexual situations on TV, either, yet by repeating it throughout the years it's become normalized, to the point that nobody even thinks about it anymore. This is how this works: have a controversial

There's nothing preventing the 'victim' channel providing information on how not to be a victim; in fact, that seems a natural fit. Further, the 'victim' channel should be more a celebration of the goodness that was

Either way, it's still a laughably small amount to set aside. They leaked data on 147 million people, are they really only expecting 248k people to want to be reimbursed? That's 0.0017% of the affected population.

Yeah, but everyone in the industry still calls it Mirth. Personally, I'm a Qvera man myself, but there's a cost to entry there (unless their free Standard edition does what you need).

Suburbs can be soul-killing for some people. Personally, I find cities to be excessively busy and annoying, full of folks I generally don't want to be around socially. But I'm an introvert, who enjoys being away from the crowds
