Nope
Well shit
Haha
But I am looking to retire into the banking industry
If you ever need to learn about it, let me know
But more than 50k
I mean...I imagine you are beyond entry level
I'd be working in a completely different industry if I was at 50k
Well, letโs just say my current job, transitions well.
But I did start around there, after accounting for inflation
Retirement plus 50k with a chance to move up wouldnโt be bad but canโt do Boston. Although, I have always wanted to live in Boston. I went to college to be an architect and frank loyd Wright and Boston architecture is supposed to be cool.
anybody used Apache NiFi before?
@green inlet to make amends I'll hang up the other two flags, and the cumsock you sent me
i run 4k@120 on macos fine which requires dp 1.4 / usb4
wtf
Yeah, I think I'm going to pass on the brown cheese. atx can have my share too ๐ lol
do a reboot
do it!
Why in the heck would you waste a perfectly good cumsock.
Just 6.5 years? I'm not impressed... come back when you hit 10 years. ๐ lol
I have access to a webserver that has been up for 15ish years lol
Why is this a thing?
LOL eh, demonstration of how solid a good *nix system can be?
/r/uptimeporn
Exactly....it has nothing to do with anything else except *nix
longest I've ever seen was 12 years
*nix master race. Just sayin' ๐
I think we were talking about that before atx. That's also the longest running os I've ever seen... something like 8 or 9 years uptime.
I often see 7-8 years
those aren't publicly facing though
I have grown fond of LVM recently, did a migration on these 25 hosts fully online from two old SAN to two new SAN
the key is not update it
no data unavaliablity
I run a cron task to reboot all my stuff every 30 minutes. #fresh
Yeah, this one was internal and was our oldest db server.
lol 30 min
LVM #FTMFW Often the unsung hero of the Unix world.
I recently moved my debian host to LVM too, to mirror the docker persistant storage ๐
I was so inspired
ALL my server builds use LVM.
Go for the most fun, a script that runs at the end of startup that reboots the box.... 
Damn Tink.....Always ahead of the game
Or wait for the first login - so as long as you don't login it won't reboot ๐
๐คฃ
That's an old old university trick, modifying the login script to log you out or modifying the startup script to reboot
Tinkerer ๐ฅฐ๐ฅฐ๐ฅฐ
Like the windows login page gif as a windows desktop
They had university in the dark ages? ๐
When do you think we founded them?
When your kids think they have done something you never did ๐คฃ
The sad part is... our kids ARE doing things we never did! Like... tinder. LMAO
make no mistake tinkerers classroom looked like something out of braveheart
I was going to go with cave paintings, but I like your description better Sonoma ๐
Oh, donโt kid yourself. We did tinder. It just wasnโt called tinder.
I seem to get more responses, if that is what you are referring to.
gotta flush your tubes boy
flush me like one of your antique toilets
speaking of toilets, the georgia toilets freaked me out
Wait... you guys do manual labor?! Like... with tools and shit?! lol
never seen indoor plumbing before atx?
more like, wtf is there 10 liters of water in the toilet
i bet the hotel staff was wondering why you were wandering around the parking lot looking for the outhouse
my ballsack almost dipped
I have the longest balls in europe according to independant scientific studies
but seriously, the level of the water was disturbing
I hate when they donโt heat the water in the urinals
I never understood why there had to be so man damn toilet shapes and sizes
to be fair that top image looks like a kiddie toilet
or something you find on an airplane
WHERE ARE ALL MY EU PEOPLE ? ๐
except the germans
they have reverse toilets
so they can study their poop
for reference
the urinals in georgia were weird too
they were almost on the floor
so you were pissing downwards
Yeah, that's normal in the states in older restrooms... Us old folks and gravity and yeah... lol
urinals range from all the way to the floor and up
in schools they are almost always to the floor to accomidate the kids
Unless you manage to hit that metal grate thingy perfectly and it splashes back on your shoes (ask me how I know).
I remember those in EVERY pub I've ever been in from the 80s. lol
trough are not very common here except bars and drive ins lol
Yeah, especially older bars.
My wife's family all live in South Carolina and every time we go down, we hit this bar from the 1940s that has those... But they also go to the floor.
it passes through layers, so no smell
they teaching you all to piss in a trashcan huh
I'm sorry... there are somethings that don't need to be messed with and/or improved upon. What's next? They going to just prop up bushes in the bathrooms there?
well... we have bathrooms with foilage already
complex toilets urinals is stupid imo. more crap to break, harder to fix and really just a waste of materials
"New and improved urinals! Just piss into the bush! All natural!"
wtf is "bathrooms with foilage"?
"For that outdoor experience indoors... Use our new Natural Bush Powered Urinal... Now with 90% more leaves!" lmao
they take pride over there is trying to be the best at eco friendly stuff, like a competition between themselves lol
compared to the british service station toilets...
which basically looked like this the last time I used it
lmao
I'm beginning to think you people spend WAY too much time in the bathroom... ๐
"have a good shit" or what does it say on there?
"Feel like at home"
I kinda like mstone's translation better.
fkn hell, I still had those at my former work
i always laughed at Norwegian shitters, with their arm rests
that is only for the handicap accessible toilets ๐
what are you saying?
***that is only for the handicap accessible toilets *** ๐
atx knows them well
there is a dude in Sydney that is known as trough boy or trough man. known for laying down in the urinal trough like you posted above, and letting everyone urinate on him (well, begging everyone to urinate on him)
what in tarnation
i know a few people who had run ins with him
there was a strange man who was under investigation from the police here 5-10 years ago called "lommemannen" - "the pocket guy" who paid kids to jump on his stomach

is that not a normal fetish in your country?
the kids usually pay me to jump on me...
i keep forgetting that lamborghini makes tractors lol
And now it is just a nice VW.....
The V12 that the Muciellago had was absolutely stunning though
Pure music
sup trash pandas
if anyone here frequents to vegas.....check your mlife accounts for comped rooms....they seem to be giving htem away to people who had accounts with any level of status
is that under or over the gun you sleep with?
Isn't @dusky plank often at Vegas ||dancing|| on the strip?
that's only during time of war and relative visits
nah, I just cry under my shower and eat cookies
looks at the last time the US wasn't involved in some active war
The US: fighting since before the US was founded.
If we don't shoot someone every so often then the world blows up
america != world
tell me about it, the current one is in san jose, ca
If we don't
shoot someoneblow the world up every so often then the world blows up
Just ... nobody look at the UK's history... ๐คซ
I've never been much of a history buff but I find what little I know of the middle ages(?) quite interesting. All the different kingdoms that eventually became England are quite interesting.
Even before the vikings invaded, we had such a backwards society ๐
Back in the days of Eadwig and Aethelbald and the likes.
Sounds like something atx would call his kids.
shouldn't that be have not had?
Nope... you're confusing us with the US again.
confusing us with us again
Here's another good name: รlfgifu of Shaftesbury
I think atx would call his kids

then there is metal and heavy metal etc etc
i know many of you overseas just clump everything into the very few catagories you have but we have a bunch
I obviously know nothing about this music category because I can't see how "every breath you take" by sting counts as hard rock...
anyway, thanks for the examples
Yeah... I have to agree... lol
a lot of songs can be a combo of more than one category. they can be confused etc
but songs that shoot for one catagory are unmistakable
Sorry... but still the best song of all time.
"No Grave But The Sea" out now! Order your copy here: http://www.alestorm.napalmrecords.com
The one and only heavy metal pirates of ALESTORM are back, and they've brought with them their 5th full length album: โNo Grave But The Seaโ! So put on your eyepatch and let the rum flow freely for the unstoppable international party machine. No other ...
didn't help that for whatever reason over the course of a couple of decades they decided to add a crap ton of sub categories and then try and add songs written before that into them
I love Alestorm. I can't play that one at home though, the missus doesn't like the C word ๐
put her on the phone with atx then
My wife is ok with the C word... but the P word drives her up the wall.
And yeah, Alestorm is in my top 10 favorite bands of all time.
I can't think of an offensive P word ๐คทโโ๏ธ
I think I know which one you mean but it's not offensive.
That's the one
goes to an ihop and the police get called 5 minutes later
according to wikipedia this is also hard rock and I always liked them

Love...
if you like korn you would love the Queen of the Damned sountrack
It was... okay
I hated the movie, but I loved the soundtrack.
Still doesn't top the Crow soundtrack
not many movies produced a sountrack where damn near every song was a hit. the queen of the damned movie was a rarity lol
If we're doing soundtracks, I loved pretty much every track on all the Burnout games.
So much amazing here: https://burnout.fandom.com/wiki/Soundtrack_(Burnout_3)
meh many songs in games were created for the game
Not the Burnout ones ๐คทโโ๏ธ
same with movies, only reason queen of the damned was brought up was cause all o those songs were not created for the movie
oh no, there is a slew of videos of literally Gen Z kids hanging out and acting retarded. is this the new entertainment coming our way? watching kids sit on a couch acting goofy?
That's nothing new
becoming a "thing" is diffiently new
TikTok is basically just the young'uns being dicks and thinking they're funny/relevant/clever.
yea but that is just rando crap
i have a spare lenovo "tiny" (i5/8GB/256GB SSD) with ubuntu/docker installed. Any idea on what i can use it for? I have 3 tinys total, 1 for HA, 1 for pihole..and this one. (bitwarden is on my main server)
Ugh. Ranks right up there with "reality TV".
omg i hated those shows.. they lock dumbasses in a house together and let crap play out
If you want to see dumbasses, just go outside. There's billions of them.
@scenic yewwhy do you have 3? lol
Yeah, it would have been better if they all had loaded guns and tons of cocaine. That would have made the shows tolerable. lol
@forest edge got em cheap ๐
sounds stupid overkill for pihole lol
@scenic yew DB server... MQTT server... Ummmm... Z2M/ZW2M server. I could go on ๐
I would nas one
That too
my main server is a cloudbox server with plex and all that stuff, i use google workspace for storing "things"
@scenic yew run kvm and virtmanager on it, put windows on it and guacamole, access it whenever you need a terminal server
put munin on it
put gitlab on it
put the TICK stack on it
put transimission on it
all in docker
also deepstack
or just put it in a closet and stop having 40 million pc's running at once
Atx isn't going to like that statement ๐
i have a win10 device for remote desktop via vpn for running stuff like ssh, but that is not a bad idea
win and ssh ๐คฎ
he dosen't have 40 million, just one really big one originally used by nasa in the 70's for the apollo missions
I KNEW that was coming! LOL
I'd lmao if that were true though... walk into his house and just see one massive mainframe with the reel to reel drives.
you guys...
guise
i have no spinning rust drives left. All nvme ๐
So, @scenic yew If you don't have an external DB/TICK setup yet, that micro would be perfect for that.
https://pastebin.ubuntu.com/p/zX2v9zD5JX/
runs on my m82 tiny
impressive
on my main server: https://pastebin.com/Sbrz5MZw
Pastebin.com is the number one paste tool since 2002. Pastebin is a website where you can store text online for a set period of time.
it's just there to manage different dbs and I can also use some features which adminer lacks, but you are right adminer is much more modern and only 1 file ๐
googling tick "mixed results"
TICK is the influxdb stack.
aaah!
i put a i7 in there though
meh... intel..
Don't tell mono this, but the mysql ext for vs.code is actually pretty good for managing databases. ๐
meh, he hates me because I run vscode on that machine
lmao
instead of installing that text editor GUI on every machine I like to use,
ye hear me @deft pewter ?
Running VS Code on the machines you actually sit at > running VS Code on every server.
I use this server to manage other servers, other servers shares are mounted on this one and the docker extension also manages the other servers
This is the thing I hate about too many vs.code exts though:
I have multiple machines I sit at, not one of these need to be setup with vscode
witch ssh client do you guys prefer on windows? I have recently switched from mobaxterm to bitwise, as i feel it is more responsive, but i really don't like it
Windows? Bleh... If I'm forced to use windows, first thing I use is Putty... but, the new windows terminal is actually not half bad...
But... windows ๐คฎ
Yeah, just ssh from the terminal if you must
I setup wsl just to use ssh and curl because the crippled PS versions made me ๐คฎ instantly
@real frigate i'm a it manager in a windows-only company, so i prefer to use what all the employees use. And to be frank Win10 is my fav MS os next to good old Win2k.
I was a 20 year .net senior dev, so yeah, I know all about that Windows lifestyle. Funny though, I never used Windows outside of work. Now, I dev only in Python, node,js and PHP, so I can use Linux freely.
LMAO... it's better in the new windows terminal app.
I'm actually kind of slightly impressed with what MSFT did with it. All sorts of config options along with favorites for various types of connections.
The Terminal app is actually pretty good. I love that you can fire up different shells in one app.
Terminal + WSL2 = ๐ฅ
Is cygwin still a thing? ๐
osx, iTerm and fish shell = ๐ฅ
You spelled zsh wrong.
fish is ๐
You're a fish.
@deft pewter thanks for the tip!
Eh, I gotta beg to differ there... especially with oh-my-zsh being a thing.
@dusky plank Aquarius? (end of Jan for me)
That explains the smell.
it's just called ๐ in german
Keeping things efficient.
๐ฑ
You can't do this in fish (I don't think?)
I love the customisation options of OMZSH, even if it can lead to me spending too much time tweaking "prompts" for different purposes ๐
omg... way too true.
It'd surprise me greatly if you couldn't reproduce that prompt in fish.
I wasted half a day tweaking my prompt. lol
Colour schemes was the other thing that I went down the rabbit hole for, until I found https://ethanschoonover.com/solarized/
That's now my go-to for anything that supports it/can be made to support it
I made everything solarized for a period.
Half a day well spent.
Including http://thomasloven.com
I did consider that for HA, but that was taking it a bit far 
But now I actually prefer gruvbox
What triggered that? ๐ค
๐
How we're not all insane from those memes is beyond me.

OpenMW is a new and modern engine based on the one that runs the 2002 open-world RPG Morrowind.

Oh, right. That's a thing.
As I recall it works really well too.
I ran it on my -08 macbook.
I ran it a few years back (because of course I still own MW). It did really well on my 2012 mac mini as well.
mmmm love the xcom games... haven't played them in a LONG time though.
speaking of UFO's the government is going to release some more evidence the military has spotted of them here soon I think
Evidence... that they don't know what something was... ๐คทโโ๏ธ
UFO doesn't mean aliens. UFO just means they can't identify it. Of course there are UFO's.
obviously
but unless the russians have created some freaky shit they are likely candidates of not being from here
A lot of UFO's end up just being weather phenomena or visual artefacts. It's optimistic to think it's actually some cool spacecraft or something paying a visit.
they done released everything that could be that stuff, this is unmistakable craft
they don't top secret possible air balloons
We'll see. I doubt it's anything special.
I doubt it's going to be black and white (even tho most the footage is) but it's actual undeniable evidence of something that can move just like the crap in movies does lol
i believe in the speech of someone about the probability of extraterreistial life being high is true, I really think that there is a huge possibility to be life out there in space
the probability of no life being out there goes to practically zero so there must be something
Is there life out there? Yes, almost definitely.
Would they be interested in coming here? Probably not.
well if those craft are them then they already been here
That's a big 'if' ๐
a big if is hearsay, i don't call video hearsay
did you see the footage of those marines?
what marines?
Let's say they reveal footage of something that we can't currently explain - that's not automatic proof that aliens from another planet are here. That's a massive leap.
well they done already released some footage. but the stuff that is coming out supposedly makes it more clear
Damn. A spec of dust on their lens. Must be aliens.
lol
I've seen better photos from a literal potato.
well even obama went on one of the talk shows and pretty much let the cat out of the bag
Once motion triggers object detection you will see your CPU spike.
especially with 8 cams on the cpu lol
without pihole, is there a way to make youtube on xbox stop playing an ad every 3 sec
Depends. PiHole might not even help. DNS based ad blocking isn't all that effective...
Especially for things like YouTube, where the app (at least on Android) will fall back to its own internal list of resolvers if you attempt to use DNS based blocking.
It just goes "aight, I'mma resolve that ad anyway. Nice try"
You might have better luck with something like pfSense + pfBlocker-NG, which can A) act as a filtering DNS server, B) supports IP blocklists, and C) can block internal devices on the network from attempting to access any other DNS services (or pretend to BE those external DNS services via masquerading).
However, DoH (DNS over HTTPS) generally works around even that, because it tunnels DNS over HTTPS on port 443. It's...difficult to block that kind of traffic without breaking most of the internet...
assuming the app even uses that
Right, though the Android app is certainly VERY persistent about resolving ad domains
It wouldn't surprise me
Hell, with how often the app is updated, they might just hard-code a resolution table in there as a fallback of last resort
Usually the answer for that would be an IP blocklist on your router, but if the ads are hosted on the same domain as the videos (like they are on YouTube) then that just blocks YouTube. lol
some routers can run the same scripts that like ublock uses which would work
although I don't know if those get auto updated like they do on browsers tho
ok, lets forsake the stupid xbox, what solutions could i get built into kodi maybe?
we have a pi running libreelec kodi
i'd be fine with using that
i just have a fervant hatred for advertising to a point of murderous rage
@jade tartan best would be to do like Leapo said, and that way everything on the network could be filtered. Otherwise you will be into messing with Linux backend of Libre Elec
this is all nvida's fault......
Nope!
Raccoons are not suceptable to advertising like humans
Humans are weak feeble creatures who are suceptable to advertising
๐ฆ
And humans are also greedy, so when they see a way to get rich, they do so
(generally)
New outfit. What do you all think?
There's a wall thats been boarded up in my new house
And I have no idea why
Like it goes between the office and the garage. Rest of the housd is brick but this is drywall on both sides
punch it and find out
we had some snow this yearโฆ
Number plate too big to be Italy, where is that?
Iโve only ever seen snow like that in Italy and Japan
austria, on the mountain pass to italy - "timmelsjoch"
The legend himself ๐
Makes sense, they are so cheap so it's probably worth having one. Definitely liking frigate, my friend came to visit yesterday and I got notifications as the gate camera saw him, drive camera, and garage camera, then person detection as he got out of the car. So fancy.
let's make a great Operating System,
oh and also manufacture a great Laptop to it!
yeah, let's also make a really nice new CONTRAST option for these Laptops!
Except it's not a option. We will not let Users turn it off!
It's also not even Contrast, it's just brightness.
Yeah, thats a great idea! Just make the screen brighter when you watch bright Pages!
And go darker on dark pages! Fuckin' brilliant to hide this from the user too!
Was gonna say that Iโve seen it like that on the Stelvio pass, so not too far away
You can turn it off: https://www.minitool.com/news/disable-adaptive-brightness-windows-10.html
it is NOT brightness
it is โContrastโ @young sigil
and there is no setting to that
as you can see in the video my brightness is always at 0.
brightness also adjusts to surroundings, whereas this adjusts to the content displayed.
but in a very dumb way: why would I need bright pages even brighter?
and dark pages darker? who the hell is responsible for that shit?
morons
the amount of posts on answers.microsoft for this "feature" and how to turn it off is amazing, also the fact that evey time they suggest the auto brightness steps.
none of these clowns ever mentions the registry
i don't think i've ever found an actual solution to a problem on answers.microosft
it's always have you tried sfc/scannow and that other dism command
and crap like run windows updates to fix the problem with windows updates not running
Windows Updates are the bane of my existence. Why the fuck is there no way to turn them off?
Even worse, if you don't acknowledge them in time, they can restart for you without input.. great fun if you have something open and unsaved.
I got a call from the factory at 1:30 AM tonight. They needed a decision from an engineer for something.
The call ended with them saying "Thanks. Sleep well!"
...and I did NOT reply "Thanks. You too!"
I don't think I've met a talented engineer that also has social skills. That would be the real tech unicorn.
If I only was an engineer
Well I did
I am recognized as an engineer
but I really ain't an engineer
๐
My social skills are great though
you cunt
Pick one:
- Technical skills
- Social skills
It's like you're building a DnD character and ran out of points for charisma.
I am quite good at social engineering, and my technical skills are next to none, and I'm a overzealous cunt
I agree with the last part.
I have convinced everyone to leave me alone and that I am their only hope
no wait, they just hate me
I've finally started learning some AWS CDK. It's really cool.
It's actually infrastructure as code, not like that CloudFormation shit.
Aye, I need to dive into that soon
but right now I'm busy with vanilla kubernetes, vmware VCF and HPE Ezmeral
As I understand it, CDK simply builds CF templates, yeah?
You are Obi Wan?
Kinda. CF is still the mechanism by which the change sets are actually actioned by AWS but I think there's more to it. Try it out. The process is awesome and the CLI is quite informative.
This is a good resource if you're just starting out: https://cdkworkshop.com/
Yup, I'm already going through the walkthrus ๐
I'm already trying to come up with ways to use it. Probably just personal stuff for now until I'm more comfortable but I think our DevOps guy is keen on it, so it wouldn't take much convincing him.
just buy some cool HPE products
and tell them you want the crazy norwegian
I'll come to the Ununited Kingdom
Youโll catch the bug there
More like this one
^_^
For those that are interested, dockercon is live now. Free event.
why does everything have to have it's own con
"marketing"
If the NRA are allowed their conventions, why can't legitimate groups that have common interests?
when cons collide - DockerCon + FurryFest
Sure, there's an element of marketing... but tech conventions are a great learning experience.
They just announced there's going to be a verified publisher programme for Docker. HA can get its images verified so people know they're not shitty ripoffs ๐
Compose is finally becoming part of the main Docker binary.
They mentioned something about being able to 'compose to ECS'. If they mean you can literally run a local command to deploy to AWS ECS, that would be great.
maybe that'll result in more containers giving instructions with a docker-compose.yaml file than the "run" variant
So, I have a Discord related question... Can I request a mod to post a pin in the #node-red-archived channel for me? It relates to scrubbing flows before sharing them on the channel.
LOL I didn't think there were actually any mods in there ๐
I think the mods stay away from NR. It's for amateurs ๐
Whatever... lol Honestly, if I didn't use it for a ton of other things, I'd be using HA automations... But, NR pushes tons of crap around the house... So, meh.
You're right, it's so meh.
In all seriousness... if people like it, that's great. Some people love visual programming.
To be fair, there is a lot of traffic usually on the channel.
Just got IP banned from my own HA Instance, lets go
that's happened to me a few times
๐
a) do you have it connected to the internet?
b) how long's your timeout on IP-bans?
I'm sure we can change that
oh oh
@last cedar I saw racoons on the latest Bobs Burgers episode and thought of you
โค๏ธ
Were they in the burgers?
They were eating spaghetti
with raccoon balls
That's just the dude raccoons.
With raccoons balls?!
they're the lamb fries of suburbia
You shouldn't type your password into here.
Hah. And from how quickly they removed it, I think it's actually a password.
haha, i knew somebody would catch that, i was a bit slow deleting it thought, never seen that popup ๐
ok, asdfgh123 - hmm haven't seen that one before ๐ฎ
I was able to save it to memory
I just log everyhing in my discord client irregardless
thanks @lapis cipher
logging in to your onlyfans now
no way to do it with passwords, but I think github automatically invalidates tokens that it finds there
np, you have now my address AND my access code to the house and beer frigde and everything @clear ferry
Sweet
seems like a good strategy
and what about the microphones and cameras I sent you @lapis cipher
I actually think I sent you a camera
๐ค
my house is huge, so is my doormat, bring a truck @last cedar ๐
if its not only on use for.. yeah, THAT
i guess that's my input for this month, hope its been much more quieter while i've been out from making the noise, i go back to die to my games and shit ๐
Did someone mention a beer fridge?!
(awkward silence we mentioned it in wrong channel)
Ok. That kinda makes me want to see about getting a pet bear now... that has a beer fridge. lol
they're probably mean drunks
If they're anything like monkeys, then yeah. I have a buddy who has a pet monkey that drinks like a sailor and then beats the crap out of him. It's funny, but also #DomesticViolenceAlert! lol
You heard about the bear that found a downed drug dealers plane
Ate like 75g of cocain or something
And the joke is that it was probably the most deadly apex predator on the planet
For about 15 minutes
LMAO! No! But now I kinda want to google that.
Same LMAO
May we get an F in the chat for this man, A true madlad.
F.
Heh... well, we all know we all wanted to know ๐
There ain't a thing Michelle wouldn't know about raccoons or cocaine, i'm still not impressed about the bear knowledge thou while that was a nice fact (kinda, show-off bit)
Sometimes raccoons and bears do deals. Common knowledge in the animal world.
Thinking that, i can now imagine raccoons selling the shit from the trashbins..
And then stealing it back so they can sell it again.
๐คฃ
@tidal bronze you about ready to leave that state yet? it really seems to be sinking into chaos lol
Now what? Was fine few hours ago.
well i guess if you don't notice anything outside your own door then all is well lol
What is this "outside" you speak of?
๐คทโโ๏ธ
Mine too, but less green stuff in it. ๐
What are those, monitors for ants?
that's all we had back in 1995
Wow whereโd you take that photo?
Bill Gates did
Yeah itโs in Washington state from memory
and then they made this https://lasershowprojector.com/blogs/references/microsoft-windows-10-logo
That one was quite clever
i liked it given it was much more than just computer graphics/animation/the usual
I have no idea which floor to shoot at... Suppose i need to read the accent and aim..
Worth noting that the US is the only place in the world that does it their way. The rest of the world is normal.
The ground is... well, the ground. Floors are things you construct above them to create vertical space.
I don't know.. People are asking a lot...
Americans ask a lot. ๐คทโโ๏ธ
need to check where my vpn is connected to ๐
the place you walk into off the street is literally the first floor
also one that keeps confusing me is "bi-weekly", i read it as twice a month but as per dictionary it can be also twice a week..
"done, produced, or occurring every two weeks or twice a week."
more and more, dictionaries are baking mistakes into the language because too many people make them
i'll just skip both occasions and use that as an excuse.. "i thought.."
I remember that coming up with GWB pronouncing "nuclear" "nucular", and the explanation being that "well, important people say it that way, so I guess it's okay"
If you walk out a first floor window, you have a fall ๐
The US has it wrong on this one. Sorry.
This one's actually valid. Lots of the words prefixed with 'bi-' can mean twice in that interval or every second interval.
It's dumb but it's still correct. Makes for a lot of confusion.
Better to pick clearer language like 'twice weekly' or 'every other week'.
calendar will handle that thankfully, just had a bi-weekly today which occurs every two weeks
now i am again having a bi-too-late-from-bed again, happens daily or every bi-daily.. have a good one, see you next month, i keep sucking at my gaming so i'm mostly dead all the time but take care anyways ๐
So I should be worried about things outside the door ?
I would but then we don't get that kind of crap here so maybe all the chaos there is now normal for you and just another Thursday
I am still confused ๐
I see trees outside
it's ok. don't hurt yourself over it lol
@forest edge did you refill ALL your prescriptions?
No hurt here. All love.
Confused because this is what I see outside. ๐
ever see that movie This is the end? where they just keep partying while everything goes to shit outside?
yea see your blinded by reality.. this is what you are really l;ooking at.. https://kubrick.htvapps.com/htv-prod-media.s3.amazonaws.com/images/oc-rescue-2-1598016631.jpg?crop=1.00xw:0.424xh;0,0.190xh&resize=900:*
Always with that positive outlook.
I mean, acknowledging the news and not turning away isn't negative lol
For 18 months you've been saying everything is going to shit but been the best times.
Perhaps you should move to a progressive place like LA and dig out from your 33' KC hole. It's 2021 you know.
work of art
no thanks, your inability to see people dying like flies around you is no excuse for you to try and persuade others to come join them lol
Why? Only 12V for you?
I have to check our โserver roomโ here
But I think the racks have 400in each
But could be 400 into the room and then only 230 into each rackโฆ
And โserver roomโโฆ. More like cleaning cabinet that houses some electronics
Usually you do 400v 3ph input with 230 1ph distribution across three buses on the PDUs
I only see 230 1\3ph input to racks in.... stuff from the 80s
On your home rack...
I will spring for my rack to have its own 1 phase 230V outlet with rcd :)
Nothing more
poor 3rd world
Star Trek TNG held up pretty well
started rewatching it on netflix a few shows here and there working through the seasons and sure some of the story lines are a little outdated but not horrible. odd seeing some of the obvious props this time around, maybe due to the HD vs SD
How does that relate?
because it used to be the norm
in the 80s
house only has 230v 3ph input
in the late 80s \ early 90s everything got 400v 3ph input
I'm rolling at the Force Lightning effects ๐คฃ

230v 3 phase?
Do I have to get @rare condor to school you
1.2mm house wiring.. laff
Let me see your sockets.
110v, laff
440v 3 phase etc doesn't mean there's 440v from phase to neutral
240v single phase == 440v 3 phase
3 phase is measured phase to phase
Yes
it is still called 230v 3phase ๐
But how is it different to what they provide now
I mean 415* not 440v
3 phase is always declared as phase-phase whenever I've seen it
That says 230v
IT = 230v distribution, 132.8v per phase no neutral
TN = 400v distribution, 230v per phase, neutral
IT = old system, TN = new system
Iโve never seen that IT. Is that from the 60s?
It was the default in norway from probably the 50s or earlier
till the mid 80s
It even has a GERMAN wiki @glacial knot
Ein IT-System (franzรถsisch Isolรฉ Terre) ist eine bestimmte Realisierungsart eines Niederspannungsnetzes in der elektrischen Energieversorgung innerhalb einer Elektroinstallation. Wichtigstes Merkmal ist die Art der Erdverbindung an der Stromquelle und der elektrischen Betriebsmittel. Bei diesem Netz besteht keine galvanische Verbindung zwischen ...
Nothing in there says that itโd be 130/130 no neutral
It just says that itโs unrelated to ground
Could be 2k, 2.23k to ground (though that defeats some of the purpose)
Iโd tap into that
Yeah but what about Norwegian wiring?
have any of you been to south east asia?
Indo? Vietnam?
Vietnam - thats where I have seen the most elaborate wiring
Cambodia was pretty bad too but not as high density so they didn't have such big birds nests on each pole
My brother lived in Nicaragua for a bit, he had some at the front of his place that would give fire work shows off every other night
Oh yeah, no doubt
lol elaborate is one way of putting it
they must all have a direct line into the grid power plant
Australia has some of the worst underground comms cabling
makes sense.. you already charge an arm and leg for shit so may as well help increase that cost by burying it
Loads of places have mostly underground cabling. Once the conduits are down, it's simple to feed new lines through them.
They're not exposed to the elements, which reduces the need for maintenance anyway.
still upfront more costly
Sure... but lots of businesses count on high initial outlay costs and reduced ongoing costs.
Once you've laid conduit for an estate, nothing much really changes. We're switching from copper to fiber in most places - all they do is disconnect things at the access points, pull the cable out, blow a new one back through.
It's practically free. Don't even need a cherry picker to get to the suspended cables. A two-man crew can replace a street's worth of cable in a day.
easy to see who had money when this neighbourhood was built
the smaller houses have power in airlines
Late reply but, you guys should check out swedens wiring
yea hanging low voltage lines is still easier lol
Got to watch out for moles though
Arbitrary code execution on Universal Turing Machine: https://arxiv.org/abs/2105.02124

Look at the teeth
ugh solid state batteries are only going to last 10 years over the average 8 of commercial lipos
sla still whooping ass in longevity
sure it wasn't a bird? pretty sure any insects that can handle your weather would have to be pretty beefy and could be easily mistaken
just because there are brown snakes living in comms pits doesn't make them "some of the worst"

Death of the Australian telecommuncations industry
Something from your youth?
from my middle age you mean
Ah, I'm mixing up albums
I was thinking of "New Skin For The Old Ceremony"
It would appear someone filmed me....
It's all funny when a raccoon does it... but when I do it, that's a sexual harassment charge.
the animal didn't have a deranged look on it's face while drooling and making grunting noises so i am sure that helped too
was that lady russian?
No idea, you'll have to ask father.racc
ew just watched a video talking about lock wire on jet engines. the sheer amount of tedious work threading wire through every single one of those bolts on a jet engine makes me cringe
Fortunately it's not your job ๐คทโโ๏ธ
I'm glad it's somebody's job though, having an engine eat itself mid-flight is not the kind of excitement I want in my day
Ah, yes. I remember you lost the front end of your car ๐
Ford focus?

Chilly 16 here today, down to 10 at night. Theyโre calling it a polar vortex on the news again.
Going to get down to 7 on Tuesday night. Will have to pull out a second duvet for the bed
Crank the heater to 30
Hope we survive the great freeze
I love local drama
We got some small castle ruins on a hill here
And the dude that owns most of the hill wants to build a house on it (currently it's grasing land for some horses)
And people are pissed, because that'll obstruct the view onto the castle ruins
so there's a petition against letting him build there ๐
I think they should demolish most of Edinburgh so we can better see the castle.
I'm undecided on whether they should evacuate buildings before they're demolished.
Depends on the buildings really. Hospitals, yes. Pubs, maybe not ๐คฃ
i need help can anyone come in voice room please
@desert shell Please DO NOT cross post. Read the channel description, post it and wait for folks to respond.
If you don't get any responses after an hour or more, and your message is no longer on screen, it is fine to re-post or post a link to it.
Use the text channels, post your questions...
Did you read the channel topics?
yes
There's a few dozen text channels here
Pick the one that's relevant to your question
If you can't work it out then - as it says in the topic here - start in #general-archived
If they're sick and dying anyway... ๐ค
Yeah, but there's hope for one of those groups...

Americans won't understand this, but it is interesting how teachers strike every year just before exams, so their demands atleast somehow have to be met ๐คฃ
Same with airport employees right before summer holidays
One could almost call it planned
Strike? That's the thing 'murican employees get replaced for, right?

Unions are effectively illegal here
Nah , it was different car. This one :
It's okay, it was only a Volvo.
Repaired except licence plate
To be fair, older Volvos are pretty much tanks
Indeed. Some of the oldest Volvos were tanks:
I loved my 77 Volvo 245
There was nothing wrong with it when I dumped it
It was just 25 years old
And a fuel guzzler
I did once get to watch a Porsche crash into a Volvo... Pretty sure the Porsche was a write off. Pretty sure the Volvo needed ||the dents beaten out of the bumper||
My mother had a 70s Volvo in the late 80s, she got hit from behind by a Toyota, the Toyota was totalled
The Volvo didn't even have a dent
This was a .. 35kmph impact
The only things tougher were the old Royal Mail Sherpa vans, which were pretty much indestructible
850 has instrument panel frame made of steel or other metal
I've been very happy with my V70 P2 facelift so far, very few issues and very reliable
And fucking huge
I can stuff at least 4500 home assistant blue in the back, without putting the seats down
To deliver them to the dump
Can even fit a few RPI on top
lol
P2 has strange electronics layout
atx's face has a strange layout.
This is true
Battery in the back was not 200 IQ
Immobiliser memory stored in flash chip instead eeprom
The gen 1 V70 is beastly good :D
Just rolled over 290k km in it
So it is starting to get slightly worn in
Mileage is negotiable here in Poland :)

@last dirge we need some third world labour coming in, so that is nice
always nice to hear american companies going into other countries and buying up all thier land
We can probably get rid of this knobhead
being DM spammed?
#general-archived I think
That's not acceptable behaviour. Go away.
So if someone was interested in learning how to do offensive security, would that qualify them as a nerd? They somehow think there can be non-nerds that know all that tech stuff.
the title nerd isn't what it use to be, anyone with access to Google can be a nerd in an instant. there must be a new term created to compensate as well as still retaining the proper insulting fashion for the "actual" nerds of this era
too bad dork was already used
Being a nerd isn't about having some knowledge, it's about being interested in something technical.
Nerd isn't an insult anyway ๐คทโโ๏ธ
these days, and that was the other part of my point

Kids and their crypto.
I'm actually okay with some of the games they play though... I bought a few shares in AMC a while back thinking we're through the worst of the pandemic and entertainment businesses will be recovering soon.
The autists on /r/wallstreetbets somehow managed to boost AMC a load this week. I made a 450% gain and cashed out yesterday.
what the fuck even is AMC? I thought it's as much of a meme company as gamestop was when the memes started
Meme? Nah, they run probably one of the biggest cinema chains in the world.
They share value unsurprisingly tanked when the pandemic hit but they made it through.
GME is a definitely meme. I have no idea why people keep claiming that the business is going to reinvent itself and somehow be a big thing again. Gamestop is an irrelevant business that failed to adapt in time.
they got a new upper management and starting some esports stuff now I think
Just like everyone else then? How are they going to stand out and be better?
memes
Yeah, that's not a valid business plan ๐
tell that to /r/wsb
or 9gag. Is that still around? ducking duck with the blocked emotes!
Alcohol free ๐ค
they don't charge for alcohol in Norway? I should move
I heard that Kronenbourg alcohol free stuff tastes just like the real stuff.
Like piss water.
The only ciders at work are too strong
They're like 2.5 stronger than the beers they have
Get half cut on a single can
Cider, Bulmers would be it
Lightweight
Sometimes you just want something refreshing and still be able to drive 
Makes sense, some need a stretcher after popping the lid.
It was some hard cider
Way stronger than bulmers
I can have a couple pints of bulmers no problem
If I had a single pint of this stuff in one go I'd be magotted
You can fart here

twiddles thumbs as GitHub Ratelimit errors are aplenty in the logs
I thought Norwegian alchohol was super pricy like all scandi-countries except denmark
It is, probably why heโs drinking non-alcoholic. Tight!
Even the 'non-alcoholic' part is a lie. They're usually brewed and then filtered to remove most of the alcohol. I think it leaves them at something like 0.3% alcohol by the time they're bottled.
Lagers are vile in the first place. Lagers without enough alcohol in to get drunk are just pointless.
Wheat beer 
A beer in the shop is $4-8 each, if I go out drinking it will be $6-10 per beer
Can get a pint for under ยฃ2 in some bars here ๐
