#cvs — Public Fediverse posts

I switched pharmacies and got a different(?) #adhd med generic.

Maybe it's just because I was off it for a few days, but this generic is smoooooth.

Looking back, it's been much worse since I was forced to switch to #CVS. I'm never going back, even if it's a much longer drive.

Getting a #COVID booster today at #CVS. When I made the appointment their website claimed they had the Novavax vaccine at this location, but of course when I got here and checked in they said "We don't have that anymore." 😡 mRNA it is then, I suppose. *sigh*

I miss #RiteAid

The longest my #adhd #rx was ever on back-order with them was...2 days?

I'm now with #CVS and every other month it's anywhere from 1-10 days.

The fact that different retail outlets have different supplies, really speaks to this being a #capitalism problem, not some supply chain/FDA regulation thing

#TIL that the main reason why the generic #CVS brand electric toothbrush heads are so much cheaper than the name brand is because they last about a third as long before wearing out and needing to be replaced. Caveat emptor.

Worried about time? BSDCan early registration ends April 30th! Worried about network time? Henning Brauer is giving the talk: OpenNTPD - 20 years and a few milliseconds later at BSDCan 2026:

OpenNTPD hit the OpenBSD CVS in late 2004. Now, 20 years and a few milliseconds later, it's time to look back, how it was received, and what changed.

We'll briefly look at the world 20 years wrt having systems' clocks synchronized (or not), the design of OpenNTPD and how it fundamentally differed from everything around back then, and how it was - intentionally or not - misunderstood by some with very little knowledge but a lot of opinion, and how FUD from 20 years ago is still around. We'll cover what changed in OpenNTPD after it went public, and what changed in OpenBSD to increase accuracy substantially. We'll also cover the later added constraint feature to further defend against getting fed incorrect time.

Take a break from thinking about World War III to think instead about all the shitty tech we're forced to put up with.
My child in grad school just filled a prescription at #CVS. I got the receipt for it in email because despite the fact that they're 26 years old and fully launched, their CVS record is still linked to my ExtraCare account. They asked the clerk how to fix that and was told they had to call CVS on the phone. Can't be changed in the store or the app. 😡

I didn't realize until I checked scheduling for my latest COVID vaccine that the recommendation had been reduced from 4 to 2 months between vaccinations for people over 65 here in the U.S.

Anyway, number 12 done this morning.

The great thing about going down to #CVS to get my #COVID shot isn't that because I'm seriously old, they text and remind me it's been six months. No, the great thing is when the guy administering the shot happens to be the pharmacy manager and so when he asks if there's anything else he can do for me, I can tell him to send a message to little Bobby telling him to get the fuck out of the way and let the scientists get back to doing science.

Yeah, I did that.
Yeah, he smiled.

Право на забвение: как удалить образ человека из системы распознавания лиц и не сломать её

У каждого из нас есть право контролировать использование своих биометрических данных, к которым относится и цифровое описание уникальных черт лица. Проблема в том, что системы видеонаблюдения и аутентификации с функцией распознавания лиц основаны на «патологически памятливых» нейросетях. Однажды увидев лицо, нейросетевая модель запоминает его навсегда, создавая риски для приватности. Из-за этой особенности глубокой нейросети вас могут отслеживать, даже когда это не является необходимым и правомерным. Юридическое «право на забвение» вступает в конфликт со сложностью его реализации. Эту проблему исследовал специалист лаборатории искусственного интеллекта российской ИТ-компании «Криптонит» Михаил Захаров. Он разработал уникальный метод выборочного забывания лиц системами компьютерного зрения (CVS). Предложенный метод можно использовать для удаления образов лиц из различных систем биометрической идентификации, не нарушая их функциональность.

Anyone else having issues with CVS and perscriptions from Teladoc lately? CVS wouldn't fulfill my perscription today because of a "license issue" with my prescriber. Called Teladoc and they told me CVS's computer system is buggy. Got my perscription transferred to a Walgreens and they filled it no problem. #meds #teladoc #telemedicine #medicine #cvs

Alors oui, #git (et tout autre gestionnaire de versions) est un outil absolument extraordinaire et on aurait beaucoup de mal à faire notre travail de #dev sans ça !

Et j'en ai utilisé quelques uns : #CVS 😄 , #SVN, #Bazaar, #Mercurial

Maintenant... quand tu vois que, sur un projet #python, le dossier .git (qui contient l'historique des modifications) représente... 87% du poids total du machin... 😱

Found out that united health care isn't covering covid shots at pharmacies. Cost would be almost $400!! Luckily CVS just said "fuck that" and overrode UHC for us. What a mess. If any new health emergency pops up we are doomed. #COVID #uhc #cvs #cdc

version control of /etc with git and git-store-meta

This blog post describes how to use git together with git-store-meta to version control config files in unix/linux /etc directories

Intro and backstory

I have used version control on the config files in my unix/linux home directories, since the early 90-ies, and used version control on config files in the /etc directory tree of my linux boxes, since I first started setting up linux boxes in the mid-late ninties.

Initially I used RCS both for home directory version control.

But while dotfile version control in my home directories transitioned from RCS controlled files in home directories on various computers, to a shared CVS repository used in all home directories, which was later transformed from CVS to SVN, until it was finally converted from SVN to git in May 2011, I continued to use RCS versioning for files in /etc directories on various computers.

The reason for staying with RCS version control for files in /etc directories was git’s lack of metadata storage, in particular user and group membership and user and group access to files, as well as limiting public access to files.

To some extent this was handled by RCS (e.g. by giving the version control file the same owner and group membership as the target file), but it always required a bit of manual fiddeling when things broke.

This blog post explains how to version control /etc directories by combining git with git-store-meta to preserve user and group membership of the versioned files as well as access privileges to the files and even preserve the time of the last change to the files.

How to set up version control of /etc directories

The first thing to do is to install the prerequisites. On a debian (or ubuntu) system that could be done by doing the following commands as root:

apt updateapt install git perl

Clone the git-store-meta git repository (this can be done by any user. Doesn’t need root privileges):

cd /tmpgit clone https://github.com/danny0838/git-store-meta.git

Then create an empty git repository in the /etc directory. Do the following commands as root

cd /etcgit --init

Rename the default branch (typically master or main) to a branch name reflecting the hostname of the machine containing the /etc directory being versioned, e.g. if the host is named doohan, the branch should be named something like etc-doohan:

git branch -M master etc-doohan

Add an /etc/.gitignore file ignoring everything (which means that version control of new files has to be done by forcibly adding the files with “git add -f“):

cd /etcecho "*" >.gitignoregit add -f .gitignoregit commit -m "Ignore all unknown files found in /etc and subdirectories"

Copy git-store-meta into the git repository of /etc/.git and create an initial metadata file with the necessary fields for controlling and versioning ownership and access of files in /etc

cd /etccp /tmp/git-store-meta/git-store-meta.pl .git/hooks/.git/hooks/git-store-meta.pl --store -f user,group,mode,mtime,atimegit add -f .git_store_metagit commit -m "Add git-store-meta metadata file"

Set up the git-store-metadata hooks which will update .git_store_meta on commits and add .git_store_meta to the commit and will set metadata values on files when updating a branch:

cd /etc.git/hooks/git-store-meta.pl --install

Add a remote (make sure it is not a public repository) and push the branch:

git remote add origin [email protected]:~exampleuser/etc-configgit push -u origin HEAD

Using git version control of /etc for a new file

In the future, when doing changes to a new config file, do the following:

1. Add the current version of the file to git (the “-f” flag is necessary because of the .gitignore file excluding all files by default)

   cd /etcgit add -f dnsmasq.confgit commit -m "Add version of dnsmasq.con distributed by debian 13 trixie"

2. Make local modifications to the configuration files and commit the changes and push the branch to the remote for safekeeping

   cd /etcgit add dnsmasq.confgit commit -m "Adapt dnsmasq to home network"git push

   (note that the “-f” flag isn’t necessary on “git add” here)

Preserving history from RCS files

When adding git versioning to /etc I preserved the history from existing the RCS version control files on the various computers, by

1. Creating a CVS repository based on RCS files from /etc

   mkdir /tmp/etc-cvscd /etcfind . -name RCS | xargs tar cf - | (cd /tmp/etc-cvs; tar xf -)

2. installed cvs-fast-export on the computer where the conversion was run (must be done by root or sudo)

   apt install cvs-fast-export

3. exported the cvs repo to a fast-import file and then imported that file into an empty git repository

   cd /tmp/etc-cvs/find -type f | cvs-fast-export >/tmp/etc.dumpmkdir /tmp/etc-configgit initgit fast-import </tmp/etc.dumpgit branch -m master etc-doohangit config user.name "root doohan"

4. moved the new .git directory to /etc

   cd /etcmv /tmp/etc-config/.git .

5. then added git-store-meta metadata versioning and pushed the branch to a remote, as outlined in the previous section

Closing words

I also added git-store-meta metadata versionining to git versioning of my various home directories, which removed the need to manually do “chmod go-rwx” on files that should be unaccessible to others after switching branches or merging branches.

When I first looked into using git for /etc version control, back in 2018, I had planned to use a tool named metastore to store the metadata of /etc directory.

However, metastore proved to be unsatisfactory for adding metadata support to git:

1. metastore added metadata for all files in the /etc directories and subdirectories, not just the files version controlled by git, which caused git updates and commits to become very slow
2. metastore metadata files were binary, which isn’t optimal for git versioning of the files or visual inspection of commits
3. the last commit was from February 1 2023, which isn’t too long ago, but the last release of metastore was version 1.1.2 on January 6 2018, which is a long time ago

In contrast git-store-meta has can be used from its main HEAD, rather than a specific release, was easy to install, only tracked metadata for files in git in a human readable CSV file, and worked well (i.e. does what it is supposed to do without breaking anything in the process).

#EyeOintments sold nationwide recalled due to infection risk

Story by Kate Gibson
February 26, 2024

"Multiple brands of lubricant eye ointments are being recalled due to a risk of infection after federal inspectors found unsterile conditions at the Indian plant where the products were manufactured.

"The recall by Brassica Pharma Pvt. in Thane, a city in the Indian state of Maharashtra, comes after a deadly outbreak last year of #EyeInfections linked to artificial tears made by another Indian firm.

"Sold nationwide by retailers including #CVS Health and #Walmart, the latest recall involves four products by brands #Equate, #CVSHealth and #AACEPharmaceuticals, according to the notice posted Monday by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.

"All have expiration dates starting April 2024 and running through September 2025. The recalled products include:

- Equate Lubricant Eye Ointment in a 3.5-gram tube, packaged in box with UPC code: 681131395298.
- Equate Style Lubricant Eye Ointment in a 3.5-gram tube in box with UPC code: 681131395304.
- CVS Health Lubricant Eye Ointment in a 3.5-gram tube in box with UPC code: 050428634141.
- #LubricantPM Ointment in a 3.5 gram tube, sold in box with UPC code: 371406124356.

"People should stop using the recalled eye ointments and can return them to the place of purchase. Those with questions can call 1-833-225-9564 or [email protected].

"#EzriCare artificial tears were among the brands recalled last year by #DelsamPharma of #ChennaiIndia, as health officials identified 81 people in 18 states as suffering from infections, with four #deaths and multiple cases of #VisionLoss reported.

"In January, the #FDA warned against copycat #EyeDrops because of the risk of infection."
