Fuck driving. You’d be lucky to get me off the couch. 😆

Obviously ACAB, but…I have known a few jackasses who thought nothing of driving while high. Just don’t. And don’t reply to me about how you “know your tolerance” or that you can “handle it”. Fuck you, you’re impaired. Don’t do it.

I can’t speak to Bluetooth as I don’t know much about it from a software development perspective, but when I first started working with USB I was surprised to find that the hardware is really simple but there’s a ton of software that makes it work. Specifications evolve over time to add features or improve efficiency. This neccesitates code changes, and those code changes have to be made at both ends of the connection if you want the devices to continue to be able to talk to each other. Aside from maintaining the interface code, there are probably also changes and improvements to the device itself. Thus, firmware updates. Make sense?

I’ll take a look. Thanks for the suggestion!

Good advice on balance, but we’re a small company. In addition to being SSE I’m also what passes for IT. 😆

I’ll check them out! Thanks for the tip.

DOM me daddy ✌🏻

Would that be pronounced KED or KWED I wonder? Or maybe just a large belch. 😆

Yes ugh 😩

Well played.

How do you find these numbers?

BTW, this was easy to find in the default interface for my instance (Settings > Block tab) but I still can’t find it on Photon. 😆

That’s fine as long as you don’t spell out the periods. 😆

By the by, I’d love to be the guy with the confidence to end an argument with “thus it is proven”. That’d be epic. I think I’ve only ever used QED humorously or ironically.

Ha serves me right ✌🏻

So many things. In written form, I hate when someone writes “Period.” after they make a point to mean “this can’t be argued” or whatever. My good bitch, I don’t think you understand how arguing works. 😆

“Full stop” is a close second.

Someone emailed my boss a while back pretending to be me. Asked that my direct deposit be changed. Boss told me he nearly sent it to the accountant but decided he should double check with me first. People are assholes.

Colonizers stick together.

I ran into this today using ssh-copy-id on a new Debian box. Seems like that tool is biased toward copying a second key instead of a first. Either that or they assume most users use one key pair everywhere (and thus only have one loaded in their agent). I use one key pair per user per box. Excessive? 🤔

I agree that this is a really important job. The wife and I usually enable subtitles on English content (our first language) any time accents are involved. Watched Shakespeare & Hathaway on BritBox recently and the English subs were glorious. They used a different background color for each character which I found extremely helpful, and the accuracy was quite good.

Sadly this is not universally true for Britbox content. Hartnell-era Doctor Who seems to be based on the scripts as it occasionally deviates significantly from the lines as delivered.

Father Brown is sort of middling and appears to be auto-generated in that the subs are mostly right but any errors are obviously homophonic and would have been caught with human review.

I guess “abide” (to bear patiently) and “endure” (to remain firm under suffering or misfortune without yielding) would both work, though neither has an inherent notion of time.
