For anybody following the saga of my balls, the good news is they don’t think it’s cancer. I have highly unusual balls I’m told, where there’s about 15 small developmental cysts on each that are just chilling and have probably been there a long time (from fetal growth).
Also don’t be afraid of getting your balls checked out, I had three ultrasounds and all were painless and not embarrassing. I have a ton of funny stories too, eg the Windows ultrasound box rebooting for security updates mid scan

Glad it's not cancer!And thank you, not enough people talk about their testicle health and that can be a real problem.

@GossiTheDog your balls matter

@neurobashing @GossiTheDog Similar here! I briefly had 3 balls, which is a line to use once in a while when everyone is a few beers into the evening...
@DamonHD when I arrived at my first unit after boot and training and stuff, everyone was having a makeshift funeral, bc one of the NCOs was having his 3rd ball forcibly removed. The Marines do not tolerate having extra teeth (they will pull your wisdom teeth at the drop of a hat) or extra testicles

@GossiTheDog I was not quite ready to read this specific sentence as the introduction to a toot today.
I half-expected it to be related to medical transition, to be fair -
You haven’t lived til you’ve seen an ultrasound doctor do this while scanning your bollocks
@GossiTheDog So your balls broke Microsoft? 😀 Joking aside, I hope there's no discomfort or need for an operation and that they're healthy.

That's wonderful! Thank you for speaking out about cancer prevention. -

@GossiTheDog I'm a certified ultrasound tech, and I'd really like to know which manufacturer managed to do that (the ultrasounds I'm certified for also run Windows, but it's the Embedded/IoT version and locked down completely – you only see the Windows UI during bootup unless you have a hardware key).
-
@GossiTheDog when my wife had an ultrasound check in Maternity the box was running Windows XP (in 2016) and complaining of SMART errors on boot, which was nice to see
@malcolm @GossiTheDog I'm (also) an ultrasound tech, and there are still some XP-based ultrasounds used in local hospitals today. They've all been end-of-life for years, but until something breaks, they'll remain in use (it was very fun figuring out why a specific ultrasound lost connection to the workstation after the hospital finally updated it from the OS we provided in 2017 – ultrasound stores images by simply storing them to a shared folder, and needed LmCompatibilityLevel set on Windows 10 to authenticate).

My Balls Break Windows.
(seriously, though - glad to hear you are okay. That's scary shit)
Blueball Screen o' Death it seems.😀

@GossiTheDog their MSP deserves some shade too for cheaping out and not deploying LTSC on those machines.
But there's never a moment when such an exclamation isn't appropriate!
@draeath @GossiTheDog If that was the ultrasound, that's manufacturer's problem for not using Embedded or IoT Windows.
If it was the workstation, it's the hospital IT's fault for not configuring update policies properly (though I don't know what's worse – what happened here, or what I see in hospitals, where Windows on workstations usually remains unchanged from the moment we install it).

@GossiTheDog Here's hoping everything stays benigh. And, Microsoft. lol
A lot of guys don't know that a Testicular Self-Exam (TSE) is recommended once per month

@GossiTheDog "For anybody following the saga of my balls" is an excellent opener to a conversation and I can't wait to try it out at a future dinner party.
Also a terrific band name:
Saga of My Balls.. -
@GossiTheDog I have had my balls checked out and can confirm it is not a big deal. I have discovered a minor varicocele case a while ago. Nothing to be worried about. everybody should have their balls checked out every once in a while.
Self exams are also important, but that never seems to be an issue...😎

@GossiTheDog Dang. That reminds me that I really should get this done to myself.
I hope I can remember to call my GP Monday. I'll put it in my calendar... -

@evan I would like to see the same poll without people as an option because it is naturally a biased response. Of course, people should come first. I am curious if people would want self-contained products, protocols or platforms

@stefano OMG!!!

I made a vain attempt to challenge the majority in the comments, but I have to agree: it's the people who matter. Everything else comes after.

yes, crypto doesn't have a great reputation - but I think this is the type of think it was actually designed for - small transactions, low cost, fast.
But adding a level of difficulty for now.Maybe just start with tracking and self reporting.
Then add the "pool of money" distribution part. Relatively difficult given the global world, and the not so global currency/ banking system.
But someone like #Wise might be able to help with that
-
Ewwwww.
I often rewrite shit as: it.sh because a lot of IT is shitty.
But that's on a different level entirely. ;(
So much for enjoying some time off over the weekend I guess? I hope things eventually get cleaned up OK.
