I use this on all on my Pis. It just works. I like the text config file for headless installation and how you can even add scripts to run on install too.

No worries! I am on mobile, so I get tired of typing things sometimes. Thank you for going into more detail as all my eloquent points are spent for the day. I sent my favorite Shake Hands With Danger safety video to the software guys yesterday. I hope at least one of them watches it.

Couple things. Fall prevention training. Part of that is knowing how to rescue yourself if you do fall, what to do if your only option is to wait for help, and how to help someone else. There are training sites that will push you off a wall…

Fall arrest systems are meant to save your life when you fall. You don’t hang in the air with them all day. That is a different type of harness. If you fall, you can’t just get up and continue like nothing happened. Fall arrest part of the harness has to be replaced. The rest of the harness has to be fully inspected, if not replaced as well.

Hanging in a harness can kill you as the straps will cut off the circulation in your legs. To prevent that, there are these little pouches on a line that you can deploy from your harness that are basically stirrups. You can put your feet in them and “stand” up while waiting for rescue. If someone is in a harness and unable to rescue themselves, this becomes problematic. Gravity is a bitch and waits for nobody.

I figure it is just a display, but I guess they could go through the effort of shoving people off. Probably safer than the plane. Especially when you are responsible for inspecting your own safety equipment every single time you use it.

I grew up in Texas. I understand your confusion. Houses are oriented a little differently here, but think of the “mudroom” as the garage. You know how you have a side door and a front door? And the side door is usually sort of attached to the garage, basement, or maybe laundry room? It is just that. A lot of people have a spot right inside that door, off to the side, for piling shoes. Otherwise you have a rack when you walk in, or you can use the closet right by your front door. It isn’t really a separate room. Good idea to have mats on both sides of the door. For whatever reason people are obsessed with split levels up here, so there is easier access to basement type areas.

This is so damn wholesome. Thank you fellow humans for helping this person and even offering to pay. Why I am cutting onions this early in the day is a mystery.

Yeah, it was in the 70s on Tuesday. Today dropped into the 20s and now it is snowing.

I started 30 minute backups earlier. It updates from the yuzu repo and downloads all of the releases from yuzu-mainline if there are new ones. Anything else I should also backup?

I wouldn’t have a clue where to put this stuff on the interwebs, but if shit happens, I will be 1 of many backups I guess.

I am getting flashbacks on dealing with SAP “inspired” software that looked worse than that bottom image. I am glad my new company does not use that garbage. It was especially depressing to see how SAP entirely ruined Concur.

What is even more painful is seeing friends glued to TikTok on their phones all day when they have STEM degrees. I didn’t grow up in a typical household, so I have a hard time relating to other women, but I don’t get it either. Do your friends with kids seem to be this way more than those without?

Whales!

I wonder if the $300 is sort of like extra startup money to get better hardware, infrastructure, software improvements in the short term. I honestly have no idea. I pop on there sometimes to watch the full length videos from YouTube and there is some really great content, but not necessarily enough. Their UI/apps could definitely use some work, though I have not checked recently.

I really hope they continue to run and it looks like I need to catch up on some content. I took a break from most YouTube/TV/etc. I cancelled all of my other subscriptions, but I have no reason to not support a company like Nebula, especially at their price points.

I am not going to debate the ethics of piracy or people’s justifications for or against it. It isn’t productive. I do think this is an instance where you are better off paying for a month than spending a lot of time trying to get it another way. Sometimes, I like to put things in the perspective of I make X dollars an hour, how many man hours did I spend to do X task? Cost benefit analysis. This isn’t always practical, thus the “sometimes”.

As someone who is out of the loop a lot, what is it about Docker that you hate? What do you use instead?

It took me weeks to wrap my head around it, but now I enjoy being able to spin something up without too much work. At work we have the whole CICD thing with Docker and K8, but I am pretty far removed from what they have to do in the run files.

What other kinds of workflows do people use these days?

It is super easy to cancel. You even get a partial refund if you want it gone today. Wait a couple months and see if you really miss it. Join the piracy gang. Ultimately, you are the product and Internet streaming has turned into cable TV. Take back what little privacy you have left.

It really depends on the shoe and what kind of working conditions, stress, and exposure to various elements they are getting. Sometimes it can be due to the way you walk too. You can get most shoes resoled and oftentimes they will fit better than they did originally. A good cobbler can repair separation issues too, where the bottom/sole is detaching. It never hurts to take them in and ask. They can do general maintenance too and clean them up.

I wouldn’t say “really expensive”, as it is all relative, but to me a good pair of boots is going to run in the ~$150-220 range. You can get some a little cheaper, but I am used to getting boots for construction.

I remember when that article came out I had a passing thought that it was probably JBS Grand Island. Low and behold… Not fucking surprised.

I worked at a company that did some upgrades for that system and that place is vile. It was hard not to puke in the parking lot some days and I remember walking around the outside of building (left), and seeing all of the spray downs on the way to the freezer.

It was just amazing as I had been preheating like all the instructions said on various sites, but it never came out amazing. Found one random comment that said to NOT preheat and stick it in cold was the magic I needed. I never liked cooking bacon on the stovetop. Throwing it in the oven is easier for me and I can do bigger batches, especially with two baking pans.

Only exception I found is bacon. Get one of those big metal baking sheets with 1-2" sides, and line it with baking paper. Lay your strips of bacon down, without them touching, and put in the oven. Set to around 425 and your bacon should be done in about 10-15 minutes once the preheat beep goes off. You figure out the time that works with your oven and bacon thickness. Memory is a little fuzzy.

I read that somewhere once and it comes out way better. Otherwise the top side never gets browned and then you try flipping them to make up for it and it sucks. This way you don’t have to mess with it and the paper absorbs most of the grease. Easy to clean up.

Sorry, couldn’t help myself on that one. They had to push a button every 108 minutes, which is the sum of “the numbers”, and they had to enter that code. If they don’t enter the code, the world will end. 😁

I am digging the color options. That definitely looks like a 1 to 1 replacement! I love the Internet.
