    Starkville people…..

    They’re building a Dutch Bros in Oxford currently. Guess it makes sense since roughly half the student body appears to be from Texas these days. They already have a 7Brew which is a traffic nightmare on Sunday mornings.

    OT: Smart TVs

    Either go with something cheap or splurge on ultra short throw projector with light rejecting screen. Screen can be motorized and floor rising if wife wants it hidden behind media stand when not in use although the wall mounted screens look lot better than a tv. They mount flush to wall with no...

    Weather Storm Essentials:

    Been looking into a similar setup. Seems combining a generator with a battery into a hybrid system is going to become the norm. Best of both worlds. Lets you fully utilize your generate to charge the battery then turn it off rather than wasting gas near idling a 5000w generator to power your...

    OT: rural healthcare

    Brings up the question of if these small communities are truly better served having their own “hospital” with very limited inpatient services, sporadic to no physician specialty support with the 1 ER doc possibly being the only physician in the building much of the week, no procedural coverage...

    Video Security Camera - one camera is all that is needed

    If possible, would see if you can buy a spool of Cat 6 outdoor Ethernet cable off amazon and run or bury it out to camera. Then get an outdoor camera that runs off POE (power over Ethernet) which is good to around 100 yards or so. Now you got 1 connection powering your camera and hard wired to...

    Ole Miss rubber match thread

    My guess is he was going to back up 3rd in case the runner at 2nd advanced and not actually stumbling. He was looking back to watch the throw and never saw the umpire

    Okt. County to sell OCH to Baptist

    Didn’t mean to imply that they would oppose it. I’m sure every major hospital system in the state would dump a truckload of money to lobbyists to keep them in place if they were ever in danger of repeal.

    Okt. County to sell OCH to Baptist

    This is what I assume the long term plan is. The Baptist hospital in Columbus is old. Maybe older than the “old” Oxford hospital at least by the look of it. One would hope when the time comes to build a new facility, they would build it in Starkville; hopefully similar to what they have in...

    OT: password manager/VPN

    Personally use 1Password which is more iPhone/Apple centric. It has a family plan where multiple family members can have accounts under one sub. Useful as you can place a login in your shared folder and all other family members can access it. Works well for us. Have heard good things about...

    OT - AI, it is a real danger?

    Difference with AI and past “industrial revolutions” is if it lives up to the hype, AI will be replacing mostly white collar workers rather than blue collar workers. The world will still need electricians and construction workers but if your job mostly or entirely consists of paperwork or...

    OT- Did it just get serious that fast? FED, FDIC, Treasury, and all of Congress just met

    If only they had simply rebranded as the “Farmers and Small Business Bank of Ohio and Pennsylvania”, they would have gotten bailed out Friday and this all would be over. Don’t think I could come up with a worse name than Silicon Valley Bank if I was seeking a bail out.

    Question on heart care facilities in MS …

    As long as OCH is county owned, unlikely they ever get any advanced emergent services like 24/7 cardiac cath lab coverage. OCH would need a lot larger referral base to generate the revenue to support and staff something like that which is unlikely given they’re based in a single county.
