No doubt that case has intake filters, no dust bunnies only fine stuff npub1hsu2e0lcpwukas5kvsehxzhm0m2amlwmmwv5mv2e3n4330qkvg8qdmat72 ozeng @nprofile…r9vg @nprofile…yze8 USB-C be like Data transfer support: maybe Power delivery support: maybe Reversible: maybe USB protocol: maybe Thunderbolt protocol: maybe PCIe protocol: maybe Displayport protocol: maybe HDMI protocol: maybe It’s so complicated it’s a miracle if it works npub1hsu2e0lcpwukas5kvsehxzhm0m2amlwmmwv5mv2e3n4330qkvg8qdmat72 ozeng @nprofile…4w8z @nprofile…eqsh strong “at war with your own citizens” vibe npub1hsu2e0lcpwukas5kvsehxzhm0m2amlwmmwv5mv2e3n4330qkvg8qdmat72 ozeng @nprofile…prl4 @nprofile…dyu0 never ask a woman how much rage she is in, it is impolite npub1hsu2e0lcpwukas5kvsehxzhm0m2amlwmmwv5mv2e3n4330qkvg8qdmat72 ozeng @nprofile…dyu0 I know how this goes.. at the appointment the doc is going to say “I diagnose you with back pain”, you’re gonna think “yes I know that’s why I came here” and walk out thinking “well that was a big nothingburger” and next time you’ll still be irrationally afraid of making an appointment. npub1hsu2e0lcpwukas5kvsehxzhm0m2amlwmmwv5mv2e3n4330qkvg8qdmat72 ozeng @nprofile…la7y @nprofile…xykt it’s so time- and location-specific. VIC and SA are absolutely roasting (and burning) the last month and a bit. Coastal NSW has been absolutely magic this week, feels like lovely spring weather instead of summer (we skipped spring and went straight into hot/cold/hot cycle here). Westerly winds from the inland instantly turn things very hot, dry and unpleasant though. We’ve had a few of those weeks already this summer though (and it will come back again soon). Feeling for our neighbours who are dealing with horrible conditions, hope they get a break soon. Climate change is making things more extreme and more volatile. npub1hsu2e0lcpwukas5kvsehxzhm0m2amlwmmwv5mv2e3n4330qkvg8qdmat72 ozeng @nprofile…dyu0 c’mon, do the thing *stick poke* 😁 npub1hsu2e0lcpwukas5kvsehxzhm0m2amlwmmwv5mv2e3n4330qkvg8qdmat72 ozeng @nprofile…n07x pretty obvious (but thin) dark streak on the sun, looks like someone scratched it. neato. npub1hsu2e0lcpwukas5kvsehxzhm0m2amlwmmwv5mv2e3n4330qkvg8qdmat72 ozeng @nprofile…n07x I’m gonna get my eclipse glasses out those sunspots look big enough to eyeball npub1hsu2e0lcpwukas5kvsehxzhm0m2amlwmmwv5mv2e3n4330qkvg8qdmat72 ozeng @nprofile…ffqc @nprofile…knl2 you get what you pay for Only these days, sometimes what you pay for is flashy complicated bullshit that’s *more* likely to die early. Today’s appliances are simple devices made more complicated by attempts to woo your wallet. Buy the simplest, dumbest appliance you can. npub1hsu2e0lcpwukas5kvsehxzhm0m2amlwmmwv5mv2e3n4330qkvg8qdmat72 ozeng @nprofile…tfka maybe ISA bus but maybe a dedicated instrument that just used an ISA-like format for pluggable modules but arbitrary signals on each pin (so plugging it into a computer might be bad). One of the photos seems to show a bunch of pins having a common connection, that might be ground and if that lines up with the ISA standard then the rest of the pins might follow the standard too. But you’d need to check pretty thoroughly to avoid letting the smoke out of the board or the computer! npub1hsu2e0lcpwukas5kvsehxzhm0m2amlwmmwv5mv2e3n4330qkvg8qdmat72 ozeng @nprofile…y54t far from done, unfortunately 😂. But it feels good to make progress. After digging comes footings, drainage, then wall. It’s a pretty big job but it will be satisfying to have done it myself (as long as it doesn’t fall over again!) npub1hsu2e0lcpwukas5kvsehxzhm0m2amlwmmwv5mv2e3n4330qkvg8qdmat72 ozeng @nprofile…y54t shovelling dirt. Uncovering attempts at retaining wall building and pool plumbing that I could do better despite having very little experience in either. (I knew the job was on the cards when I bought the place, successfully procrastinated as long as possible!) npub1hsu2e0lcpwukas5kvsehxzhm0m2amlwmmwv5mv2e3n4330qkvg8qdmat72 ozeng @nprofile…y54t people who throw tantrums often get what they want, which only serves to encourage the behaviour npub1hsu2e0lcpwukas5kvsehxzhm0m2amlwmmwv5mv2e3n4330qkvg8qdmat72 ozeng @nprofile…5wev @nprofile…m5lp one of the worst things about the internet is that everyone’s using it. I’m happy to have a corner that’s slightly harder to use. The whole internet used to be slightly harder to use. Those were the best times. npub1hsu2e0lcpwukas5kvsehxzhm0m2amlwmmwv5mv2e3n4330qkvg8qdmat72 ozeng @nprofile…6rg6 @nprofile…7s7m Australian here, I’m also mindful of only purchasing things from good democratic countries ✊ npub1hsu2e0lcpwukas5kvsehxzhm0m2amlwmmwv5mv2e3n4330qkvg8qdmat72 ozeng @nprofile…taps it looks like he has very good representation, fingers crossed for a just outcome npub1hsu2e0lcpwukas5kvsehxzhm0m2amlwmmwv5mv2e3n4330qkvg8qdmat72 ozeng @nprofile…taps ahem. *alleged* CEO killer. This is fertile mistrial material. npub1hsu2e0lcpwukas5kvsehxzhm0m2amlwmmwv5mv2e3n4330qkvg8qdmat72 ozeng @nprofile…taps I’m sorry, ceiling cat, my willpower is weak npub1hsu2e0lcpwukas5kvsehxzhm0m2amlwmmwv5mv2e3n4330qkvg8qdmat72 ozeng @nprofile…taps snitch about to get educated about capitalism npub1hsu2e0lcpwukas5kvsehxzhm0m2amlwmmwv5mv2e3n4330qkvg8qdmat72 ozeng @nprofile…taps kick a log behind the toilet, pay it forward npub1hsu2e0lcpwukas5kvsehxzhm0m2amlwmmwv5mv2e3n4330qkvg8qdmat72 ozeng @nprofile…taps actually, I’m forgetting Hanlon’s razor. There are lots of holes in this (commonly reused fake name in ID, he only looks vaguely similar, if the gun is 3D printed then there will be thousands of them, the note was “recovered” so it may have come from elsewhere etc) npub1hsu2e0lcpwukas5kvsehxzhm0m2amlwmmwv5mv2e3n4330qkvg8qdmat72 ozeng @nprofile…taps news article I read said he: * was carrying a gun similar to the one used * had a fake ID with the same name the suspect used at NYC hostel * had a handwritten note about motivation and mindset Well that’s a silver platter isn’t it? Or it’s a stitch-up. Bear in mind it’s like a week later. I’m not buying it. Too fishy. npub1hsu2e0lcpwukas5kvsehxzhm0m2amlwmmwv5mv2e3n4330qkvg8qdmat72 ozeng @nprofile…hz70 South Korea’s president is having a not-great time too. Here’s hoping USA comes to their senses and decides they don’t want to miss out npub1hsu2e0lcpwukas5kvsehxzhm0m2amlwmmwv5mv2e3n4330qkvg8qdmat72 ozeng @nprofile…cgs9 can’t decide if I’m annoyed by shitty keyboard rollover or whether it’s my own fault for sloppy typing. npub1hsu2e0lcpwukas5kvsehxzhm0m2amlwmmwv5mv2e3n4330qkvg8qdmat72 ozeng @npub1hvk…9qam that unscaled Y axis certainly confirms my worst fears. It could be anything, and that means it definitely is. npub1hsu2e0lcpwukas5kvsehxzhm0m2amlwmmwv5mv2e3n4330qkvg8qdmat72 ozeng @npub1rc6…g7hx last year there was a research paper published that said plankton feeding on kelp nullified much of the carbon storage benefit. We need to be very careful to 1) get the calculation correct to be sure it is worthwhile; and 2) make sure companies do not just use this as a dodgy offset method so they can keep polluting and generating profits. Aside from that, any efforts to rehabilitate our eco-systems is surely worthwhile! https://www.resilience.org/stories/2022-03-15/kelp-wont-help-why-seaweed-may-not-be-a-silver-bullet-for-carbon-storage-after-all/
