I understand the dev, but it still seems like they created this problem. Seems like they could have just left the license as it was and say "only these OS's are supported at this time, feel free to port or fork but I'm not responsible for anything beyond this"

Ok, remove the buttplug, then.

Yeah, that's one thing that sucks about union jobs. On the other hand, I'm no longer at a union job and can break/lunch whenever I want, but my boss can make unrealistic expectations and I have no way to argue if I can't get another manager in the line to back me up. My current workplace is very quickly turning into a shittty place to work since there isn't a union to push back.

Don't forget they also hold you responsible for all your work they held up.

Normie here. Those two phrases can mean the same thing. There's a lot of body language processing and behavior processing that all gets lumped into someones "look", if they say "you're too normal" it means the same thing as "you don't look autistic".

You could probably get nitty gritty and find that someone who is more familiar with you might be more likely to say "you're too normal" because they are basing it off of more than just appearances, but in the long run it's all just based on observations anyway and certain cultures might lean toward one phrase over the other.

It's also been known by economists for time immemorial that the best way to improve the economy is to give money to poor people, nothing else required. Literally just giving poor people money to spend skyrockets the velocity of money, whereas the hoarders just put it in an account to do nothing but gain interest.

Where are we on this one?

  • That didn’t happen
  • And if it did, it wasn’t that bad
  • And if it was, that’s not a big deal
  • And if it is, that's not my fault <--- I'm guessing here
  • And if it was, I didn't mean it
  • And if I did, you deserved it

The majority of PhDs I work with (we do lab bench-level work) make work suck because they think they know more/better about the work we do and will not listen to anyone. Probably some ego thing or trying to justify their choice. A great litmus test is finding out what they think of grad school, if they say they hated it, they're usually pretty chill. If they liked it or indifferent then they'll usually be a pain.

I was at a store that had those hanger locks on the batteries and chargers so you couldn't get the items off the hook thing. All of the items were packaged in cardboard...

I told my kid he needed to turn off his computer at night when he's done. He said "ugh...I always do". Then proceeded to lock it as if proving me wrong.

I work in a place where I'm in nearly the last group to work on a project, which are usually 9 months to 15 months long, and we don't know who in our group will be working on a specific project until a step or two before it gets to us. Some managers loop in all groups when they start planning a project

I usually filter those straight to trash and get a talking to for not being in the loop 6 months later. Luckily its a 1 in 8 chance that I'll be on that project.

 

Hi sysadmins, I am thinking of doing a pretty drastic career change. I have 10+ years of experience in chemistry doing bioanalysis and a few years repairing breath alcohol analyzers. I have always considered messing around with electronics, networking, and computers/servers as a hobby and have been using various Linux distros as my main os for almost 20 years.

I have come to see my specialty in my line of work as a dead end. I'm pretty damn good at my job but I feel like automation is going to be taking over very soon, and I'm not that good that I think I'll be in the top 10% that get to stick around and run the automations when the robots finally take over. So I'm considering doing a career change to IT/sysadmin.

What I'd like to know is what should I learn how to do to see if I'll even like moving down this path? What can I set up at home, break, then fix that would give me an idea as to what the sysadmin life is really like?

I'm pretty sure I haven't ever really done any sysadmin type work with my home setups, seeing as I build and set up services I want for myself and at the level I'm willing to put up with. For the most part I can be handed something already implemented and work within that space to keep it going and adjust it to what I want it to do or fit my set up. I can usually find my way through log files and error codes to figure out what the problem is and duckduckgo my way to a fix.

 

Alright meshers, I've been playing around with meshtastic for some time now and I've ended up with a good number of devices. I'm mostly in the rakwireless boat, with a pair of heltecs.

I have two RP2040 (rak11310) units that I just can't come up with a good use for. They use less power than a heltec on full blast, but don't have Wi-Fi or Bluetooth. If you disable Bluetooth and Wi-Fi on the heltec and turn on power saving, the heltec ends up using less power for what I can see as the same capabilities as the RP2040.

So, what can I put these units to use for? The processor is definitely more powerful than the NRF52 boards, but meshtastic doesn't seem to need any more than the NRF52 has to offer. With power saving, the heltecs can perform equally well with less power, while also having a more powerful processor in case it's needed.
