It is time for the fax machine to die.
It has been time for the fax Machine to die for the last 18 years.
For the love of God somebody, please kill the fax machine.

Correct me if I’m wrong but fax isn’t end to end encrypted so how is it deemed more secure than email which also isn’t end to end encrypted (by default).

Yeah I just love having my cancer diagnosis sent in plaintext over copper wire such that anyone with a dollar store audio recorder and physical access to the wire can intercept. If there's one thing 19th century data transmission tech is known for, it's security and privacy.
Is it too much to ask that hospitals use the literally decades old AES standard for sending medical data?

As someone who provides customer support for software that basically turns a Windows server into a giant fax machine, I 100% agree.

Gas stoves. Yeah, real smart to use a source of pollution inside your home. Electric ranges have been available for decades. Recently available induction stoves are like magic. Yet people cling to cooking with fire.

Agreed, but I really miss the sheer power of gas stoves. Wondering if they make (or if I can make) souped-up versions of electric or induction stoves. Or do I just have a really weak electric stove?

I think you might just have a really weak one, or poor compatibility pots? I've had both, and if anything my gas burners feel a little slower and cooler than my induction stove did.

wrote last edited by [email protected]I found if the pot makes solid contact with the electric elements the electric can actually heat up water faster than gas. But if the bottom of your pan isn't flat or the element is warped, they are really, really, really slow.
My experience has been with gas (fast), electric resistive with exposed and warped elements (slow), electric resistive with a glass top (fastest).

My induction hob can heat things up faster than gas
It's a combination of high power and high efficiency

Besides wind turbines and some solar power, all of our power plants are essentially fancy steam engines turning turbines. We've been generating power using water to spin wheels of increasing complexity for thousands of years. Wind as well, though it's not as prevalent in the modern era.

Our induction plate rivals the power of the electric range in this apartment. Our previous induction plates were on par with our gas stove. Am hoping for even more power when I upgrade to a built in induction range that’s wired into 240v.

Yeah same. Water in a pan begins to sound like it's going to boil soon pretty much as soon as it's turned on.
Those that prefer gas over induction must have had some crappy induction hob to compare to.
