microsoft should add a single, tenant wide setting to require TLS for all email and then set a deadline for a year from that date when it will be forced on for all tenants.

Which leads luddite doctors and nurses to clutch their faxing pearls because HIPAA SECURITY

its more that they don't want to spend the time to enforce TLS on their email when the faxing works right now.

of course it is. they would be all mad that its not PGP with everyone manually sharing their public keys.



Jim Silly-Balls posted:

What Healthcare org do you work for where the practitioners know what TLS is? Faxing is how they've always done it and ITS SECURE, IT GUY so faxing is how they'll do it till the heat death of the universe

Healthcare will single handedly keep faxing alive

most of them don't know what TLS is, they just know it would allow them to use email instead of faxes but also that their IT staff has told them it will take more than 5 minutes. security does not remotely factor into it. its 100% about convenience and short term cost.

doctors and nurses do not care even a little bit about HIPAA or PHI in general, they care about what makes their job easier. lots of them send PHI via SMS.

yeah that's the other thing about faxes. some of them want faxes because they want a ~*HaRdCoPy*~ for their records so you fax them stuff when they're closed and it just sits on the machine in the open until someone comes in and remembers to check the machine.

one of the upsides of provider org consolidation is that kind of thing is starting to go away as everyone gets onboarded onto EMRs

wrt torrent files i think magents are just a hash of the torrent file and then a list of trackers all url encoded into the magnet url. your client parses the list of trackers and asks each one for a file matching the hash. if one of them provides it the torrent client opens it as a .torrent and starts the d/l or displays the content to u

Shaggar
Apr 26, 2006
but yeah i guess if ur client supports dht it can use that to find the file by the hash too

my winphone had glance mode where it would just show u white on black date/time/next appointment/other configured stuff without going to the lock screen

it was oled so it was cheap and saved battery vs the lock screen which was the same thing but w/ background image. it was so nice and i wish ios would add it

my parents have a central vacuum in their house and its great. the sucker hole layout allows you to reach everything so it works well. they also have a big whole house fan and it too is great. a few years ago my dad added on a wood shop to their garage. he had a heat exchanger built into the exhaust system to maximize heating efficiency when using the exhaust in the winter. he doesnt have a set of air tools yet.

i do have a buddy who works on cars that has a whole set of air tools and a big central compressor in his garage with overhead lines and stuff and oh man is that nice

you can intercept keyboard events in javascript the same way you can intercept mouse events, so they just intercept f12 and have it do nothing the same way as those anti-right click scripts work. you can always get to it from the browser tools menu tho. the more rear end in a top hat thing to do is throw a loop on the page that calls "debugger" so when you open dev tools it breaks and you have to disable debugging.
