I moved up to project manager and started working 55 to 60 hour weeks as the norm and of course it's salary.

I grew up and have put my fair share of time in the trades. They do pay well but if you don't get out of the field, you trade your functioning body for money.

The one thing I can't wrap my head around is why everyone wants to work so much overtime. Even unions are rocking 50-60 hour work weeks and then claiming they treat you well. It's looked down upon if you only want to work 40.

Don't we already do this with taxes? Why would anyone do this?

I had math, history, science, and English class with Spanish or French (one foreign language). None of those taught me anything as useful as your class.

I came over when reddit said no more third party apps. I've been faithful to lemmy for nearly two years since.

I've experienced the same feeling. There can be hundreds/thousands of posts and yet no discussions. I pass by many interesting topics because there's zero comments and it was posted to 10 different communities/instances. I know that's how federated content works, but this method discourages interaction.

Then there's communities like hacker news that doesn't even post the content on lemmy, just the title and a link. I've ended up blocking them because I don't want sign up on another site, I like my cozy app.

There's a lot of niche communities from reddit here that people attempted to make but they ended up not taking off and are now wastelands.

I miss old reddit, but I'll never be going back to what it's become.

I'm only going off of the picture. I see ground wires tucked in the back of the box. The green/ground need to be tied into the other grounds. The white wire with the green sleeve on it needs to tie into the neutrals. You can pull off the green sleeve on it because it is truly a neutral.

I'm only assuming the wire with the loop on it is the line or hot. You'll need to confirm that with a voltage meter if you're not sure. You can cut that and make a pigtail to feed the switch.

The single wire looks to be the leg or the wire going to the fan. Once again, this needs to be confirmed.

Make sure all the connections are tight and the proper sized wire connectors are used.

I've recently transitioned to Linux. I've anyways steered clear off kernel level anti cheats for obvious reasons. How do these work on Linux if the game enables it for Linux? Is it still as invasive as Windows and does it still remain installed after uninstalling the game?

Can we pull the plug on Trump already? I swear this timeline is a cruel joke.

Fair enough, the device is neat!

Why would you film this in front of two device plates that are not level?

Let's say you use your stove for 30 minutes. A quick Google search shows 1 kilowatt per small burner (per hour) is used for an average stovetop. It's about 16 cents per kilowatt hour where I am. Mathing that brings it to 8 cents per 30 minutes.

Another factor you have to keep in mind is the amount of time you have to take out of your day to prepare it.

Here's an idea, don't release it on ancient hardware and then complain it's not up to par.

I bought cyberpunk on release day for my PC and didn't experience any of the bugs people were complaining about. I only had a 1060 too.
