The email I got last week said it was mandatory for all clinical staff, doctors, orderlies, vendors, contractors, PAs, or anyone else hired by or contracting with the VA. Pretty inclusive of everyone but patients.

These lesbos were told they were getting the same percentage of the revenue that the men soccer players were but there was a significant difference in revenue. That wasn't good enough for them.

They went full Socialibdem in wanting equality of outcome---not equality of opportunity.
Actually after it was broken down, I believe the women were shown to be getting a larger percentage of the pie than the men were.

This fact is what has bothered the ever-living shit out of me for a while now. It poses the question - is this intentional or is it ignorance? The net effect for me is realizing that most of these doctors aren’t really critical thinkers at all - they just regurgitate “information” without really understanding it. It’s all about “practicing medicine” and less about “practicing tactics to preserve the health of the physical body” - hence the term, physician…

Recent justification for me on this: had to take my daughter to her pediatrician for her TDAP booster for school. The doc told me she was “due” for 2 other vaccines (HPV and meningitis). I refused those two and said I am only interested in the tetanus shot for her. Then I got this lecture on how these other ones could prevent cancers and help with the horrible and scary meningitis… I have no doubt his heart was in the right place, but I’m pretty confident my 12 year old isn’t having sex with and kissing a bunch of dudes just yet. She’s also extremely healthy, active, and doesn’t stuff her mouth with shit all day. To his credit, after his lecture he didn’t bring it up again.

From my layman’s perspective (also having friends and family who are family doctors, athletics teams doctors, etc), “medicine” today is a very strict and unwavering culture of compliance to claims from big pharma and academia. Free thinking is not encouraged and/or cultivated in that profession at the family care level. Strict compliance and parroting are encouraged and any disassociation with that by the patient is to be met with condescending lecture. Two out of three of my medical doctor friends actually think they are the authority on every conversational topic, by simple virtue of them being a “medical doctor”…

This COVID thing has very much reshaped my perspective on the profession. They are so self unaware what their behavior is doing to the trust of patients. People are rapidly losing faith in their “doctor”…. It’s nuts.
I've thought the same thing for a while. While there is no doubt you have to be intelligent to be a doctor, I agree with your saying that they are less about critical thinking and more about if "a" happens then this is how you treat it rather than trying to prevent "a" in the first place. I follow some doctors for weight lifting information and they fell right in line with the jab stuff and don't entertain ivermectin, etc. due to there not being enough information with respect to covid. Granted they are definitely evidence based in all things they do so I understand their opinion on the matter, but they almost took the stance of "I'm a doctor so I'm right and you're wrong". Rubbed me the wrong way for sure.

My view has also shifted closer to your last paragraphs. I use to pfft when someone said big pharma but then I started paying attention. Covid was as eye opening as anything could be if you were paying attention. Healthy people don't make them money. Now I'm not saying that there is a cure for cancer out there and it's being hidden (certainly could be true) but I also know that medical school teaches close to nothing on weight training, adequate sunlight exposure, what to eat for fiber, etc., things that would prevent a large majority of the health issues plaguing our country right now.

President Trump coming to Cullman AL on the 21st for a Save America rally.
It is about 20 miles from me I may go but it is hot as the Devil's toenails here and I don't do heat well.

This is a guy over in Cullman who is my kind of person.
Here in SC the heat broke. Mid 80s thrugh 8/21. Maybe Bama will be similar. Hope you can go

Interesting you need a vaccine to eat but you don’t need ID to vote
More and more people will be leaving New York and moving to the south I’m sure.
I think I'm starting to get it. Blacks don't trust the government and won't get jab but mostly Whites get it. we are now back to legal segregation in blue states.

This guy is my cousin that I hunt and fish with regular. Everything in that video is true lol. I promise you one thing, it’s never a dull moment hanging out with him. If you ever want to meet him for a beer, just go to Applebee’s in cullman for lunch. He and his buddies will be at the bar drinking nearly every day there.

Sup. This is all kinda meh, NICs are part of the motherboard these days in damn near every computer so unless you explicitly took it out of the manufacturing process. Every NIC has had the capability to PXE boot for like 20+ years, it isn't something new and is used to do bare metal provisioning of a computer.

Physical NIC doesn't bother me, but ole CM needs to drop the specs of what these machines actually have in them like wifi or LTE. CM pulled the password back with a BIOS utility.

He obviously didn't find much of interest other than the cloud desktop setting. I haven't used it but you can remotely change CMOS confgs with it over the network. So that makes me wonder i you can turn it off remotely as well. I would assume so and that's problematic but if they were remotely controlling machines they'd have a better process than that.
Can PXE boot be used without connecting to the internet?

He also said that Delaware had more corporations than the rest of the country combined.... combined.... combined.

Weird habit hes developing but no way that many co's are in Delaware right? I could see maybe a few decades ago they had some tax laws that did that but now????

Delaware has no corporate tax. So yes it is technically home to a large # of corporations. His bragging about this however is counter to his proposed tax policies.
