An urgent call has gone out to medical students to help London hospitals recover from a major cyber-attack.
In the message to trainees, which has been seen by the BBC and The Sunday Times, medical students were told they would act as "floorwalkers" and hand deliver blood tests.
It said: "In this critical situation, we urgently need volunteers to step forward and support our pathology services.
"The ripple effect of this extremely serious incident is felt across various hospital, community and mental health services in our region." #cybersecurity

Calling fgets() gets complicated ... For #RustLang Apps on Apache #NuttX RTOS

@ncommander The good news is that brake fluid is kinda strange. It can be tested with a multimeter for resistance. As long as it's flushed, it should be fine.

(Brakes were at about 80%, and I've got cavitation in the system when I push the peddle so it might just need a flush and bleed, although it imples water got into the system from somewhere)
@ncommander Fluids don't compress well. You likely have air in your brake lines. Fresh fluid, hydraulic wrenches and a vacuum bleeder should fix it. The times I've seen air in brake lines were mostly from a leak caused by not changing the pads.
I believe there are some bleeding valves that function essentially like check valves. I've never used them but they seemed promising.
Just wear safety goggles because brake fluid is not good. It can strip paint too. Disposal of used brake fluid is essentially the same as used motor oil. You'd need to check local regulations to be certain.

Due to bird flu all the politicians pushing lockdowns during COVID should be imprisoned to ensure they keep 6 feet away from everyone else, and avoid a repeat of their polices.

And for anyone who's like "PShh! no organization dealing with sensitive data is gonna allow machines that ship with this into their org's networking ecosystem!": You're wrong.
I *Just This Last Week* got a new laptop from my university and copilot was already enabled, and pressing the "copilot" (reskinned context menu) button overrides even the group policy editor-level fix to turn it off, immediately reactivating it and resetting the GPE toggle to default.
So. Yeah. Bad.

English has the bad word "cock" - referring to the male genitalia.
I don't think that has anything to do with chickens.
In Norway and Sweden, the word "kuk" is very similar. It is unmistakably referring to the genitals, and cannot be confused for a bird.
The English language borrows a lot of words from Scandinavia, and I'm fairly convinced this is one of them.
@thor In the US we still use the word draincock for a describing what is essentially a tap. I believe it is old English.

@thor Try automotive glass cleaner that comes in a spray bottle. It should be mostly isopropyl alcohol. It was my secret as a custodian. In the US, something like regular window cleaner can leave streaks. On a vehicle this could result in an accident and a lawsuit.
Rubbing alcohol works well at 70% or higher. To get rid of the streaks just wipe the squeegee after each pass. The alcohol should leave a surface that reminds one that they forgot the outside.
