89.7%, your statistic is out of date

How does this compare, ram wise, to curl wttr.in ?

You read the articles?

You’re supposed to immediately shitpost based on the post title. At least, that’s how I learned to Lemmy

I ask people on the internet or just scroll through my library’s recommendations.

Internet recommendations (from people who share the same tastes) are better than library randoms… Mostly because YA stuff is more common in my library recommendations for some reason but I still usually read them anyway.

There’s only been one book that I ever regretted reading. “Conrad’s Time Machine” … Fuck that book. It was so bad I’m still salty 20+ years later.

Hey, I’ve been there.

Heads up, don’t ever go to Salem even remotely close to Halloween. We didn’t think about it and happened to be there the first week of October and it was insanely crowded. I asked a local and they said it was “calm” compared to how it gets around Halloween.

Though you should visit TST while you’re there. You can touch (or even sit on) the baphomet statue.

Ah, that’s even more acute. You definitely win this round.

EDIT: Also, hope your tech support ends today (or at least soon) and you don’t have to deal with it again.

Everything about it makes perfect sense except “floodway”. And, if I buzzword hard enough, I could see that meaning something like the Slashdot effect/hug of death.

… I’m going to start using it that way.

I’ve been leery about bitwarden client updates since the posts awhile back about the new(ish) PE/VC c suite person.

I’m not saying those are related in any way other than the fact that I intentionally haven’t updated my clients to the latest yet and for once it worked out for me :)

I was wondering how a floodway affected software developers but I eventually figured it out.

Still available via my VPN node in India but I don’t know if that actually means anything.

Once I met a group on a 50km trail where a significant other inserted themselves in a “friends trip” but had never hiked more than a few km and had definitely never done multi day backpacking

… It went about as well as you’d think.

We got part of the story from the couple as we checked on them, and the full story when we caught up with the rest of the group a few hours later.

The group said they’d tried to talk the noob out of it multiple times and invited them on multiple short shakedowns but no…

“to make it more manageable” - this is the part I don’t get.

Why do we HAVE to start school/work/whatever at 08:00 local time? It’s just a number that represents a time of day, it doesn’t matter what that number is. I’m perfectly fine starting work at the exact time of day I always do and calling it by the UTC time, 11:00.

If everyone just used UTC then 11:00 is 11:00 everywhere, regardless of the part of the day it falls on locally. In some locations that’s early morning, some mid-day, some afternoon, some evening, etc. Business hours would be simple and universal - “o we’re open 12:00 - 20:00” and everyone in the entire world would know what time they’re open without needing to account for timezone offsets, savings times, etc. That’d also be really helpful for companies and employees that are global - “in this US office we work 11:00 - 20:00, that EU office works 09:00 - 18:00”. No more needing to do what I do all the time which is things like “we’re going to move that meeting to V PT / X CT / Y ET / Z UTC / Q CET”… or the even worse thing where people say “we’re doing it at R time” without bothering to specify a timezone and then everybody has to know, research, or ask wtf timezone they’re talking about.

It seems like there’s this strong belief that “08:00 MUST be early in the day in my locale” but… what does it matter?

Okay, rant over. I have extremely strong feelings about time and timezones because it’s a continuous source of tomfuckery.

Years ago I installed Mint on an elderly parents laptop and said “that icon is your web browser”. They’ve used it for 8 years without a single problem.

I’m not who you asked but… I’ve never heard much good about jackery and they’re comparatively super expensive. Though, admittedly I haven’t price compared in several years. When I was looking, jackery was still using lipo batteries instead of the lifepo4, while being more expensive, so it was easy to discard them. Surely they’re using the newer chemistries now…

You might check into ecoflow or bluetti.

Edit: I have quite a bit of bluetti stuff and haven’t had any problems except with a folding 220w solar panel that was “free” with a battery purchase. It works, but not remotely close to spec even in ideal circumstances… Might be a reason they were giving them away : )

The batteries/inverters have all done well though the passive drain is significant.

That reminds me…

Step 2: find domains of people/companies you don’t like and set a calendar reminder for when their domain expires so you can be petty and make fun of them with a parody site if they forget to renew.

… Or is that just me?

I had to create an account with apple the other day and apparently “myname@mydomain.dev” isn’t a valid email address… Guess if it’s not a .com then it’s not real :/

Of course it ate shit when i tried to use a burner Gmail too, but in a different way. Fuck them for requiring an account to download the xcode CLI tools

I thought I just heard a story on NPR about how (lab) Lyme disease tests are varied and fickle where one might test positive and another negative

… Guess I’m going down a research hole.

If you checked for truths then you probably didn’t find much.

By “artificial problem” you mean the problem that they created… Right?

… Right?
