What is amazing about my spinal-meningitis-induced-by-high-body-temperature partial hearing loss is tinnitus is more there.

Decades later, after taking one pill of Zyban (to help quit smoking, Wellburtin-class), I lost the rest of my hearing in less than 30 minutes … permanently, but tinnitus went like mind-deafening.

7 years later, I opted for cochlear implants: and what do you know, tinnitus is barely there, almost gone.

not sure how to explain this, but it is largely gone, this tinnitus. I suspected that natural background noise is keeping this feedback loops (tinnitus) from mainfesting in my auditorial part of the brain.

Hearing largely restored in terms of jumpy crescendo yet fuller-spectrum, but dang, I hear farther than ever did before, like in Jamie Sommers of Bionic Woman.

I still operate in a high-stress environment of frontline cybersecurity, yet am more calmer and more responsive.

Highly recommended, unless you value your musical skill over tinnitus.

I do enjoy dual-PK-certificate authentication in my homelab: one by equipment, and one by user/group.

Only misgiving is that the key management issues have worsen only for the key administrator(s). But it is a viable and sustainable AA model because there is the most important security component: instant denial of a user and/or a equupment.

Ummmmm, E2E on a JavaScript-infested website?

No thanks. Just, no.

Interesting that King Ferdinand and Queen Isabella issued the Alhambra Decree to kick the Jews out ot Spain shortly after Christopher Columbus, a Sephardic Jew, reached the Americas.

This was even after the Jews heavily funded the Spaniard military in the conquest of Gibraltar.

I know that CORS is stupid.

It took a CORS expert from W3C to answer this convoluted CORS question.
