Still not the kind of thing the average person was ever going to watch a four hour video on, regardless of attention span.

Why is it that whenever something is spitting out junk data, those specific characters are involved?
I’m not up to speed on how US tax laws work. What does getting deemed a hobby entail?
World’s best swap drive.
I have a lot of questions for whoever set that up in the first place, first and foremost of which is: why in the everlasting fuck was that computer ever attached to the internet? At most it should be allowed internal network access only.
Which conversions? Most metric conversions are drastically simpler than their imperial counterparts.
Not really. In most jurisdictions, only gambling type sweepstakes (ie a random draw) are governed that tightly. Fan voted things like this are more or less unregulated. Plus, you have to read (and understand) the legalese fingerprint fine print to determine legal responsibilities. I’d be surprised if there weren’t language in there a that absolves them of almost all legal responsibility.
Also, there’s nothing in there that seems to be anywhere near an actual legal problem.
I think there’s less /s in there than you’d hope for. Think of that idea coupled with the whole “No slavery, except for prisoners” thing.
In this case, none of that applies. I do industrial programming. 99% of the ethernet networks I have to connect to don’t have a router, and nothing is running DHCP. They locked out my ability to manually change my IP address.
I encountered “lawful evil” once. My answer of “I know what the problem is. I know how to fix it. But because you have no clue about what this company actually does to make money, you took away my ability to do it. So now I’m here, wasting both our time” didn’t seem to go over very well.
Yeah, I’d love to, but first we have to tell that to Rockwell, Siemens, Bosch, ABB, etc, etc. All the proprietary software runs on Windows. Not to mention getting my company on board when we’re already heavily into the Microsoft ecosystem at the corporate level.
I think that every operating system needs to a have a “do what the fuck I told you to” mode, especially as it comes to networking. I’ve come close to going full luddite just trying to get smart home devices to connect to a non-internet connected network, (which of course you can only do through a dogshit app) and having my phone constantly try to drop that network since it has no Internet.
I get the desire to have everything be as hand-holdy as possible, but it’s really frustrating when the hand holding way doesn’t work and there is absolutely zero recourse, and even less ability to tell what went wrong.
Then there’s my day job, where I get do deal with crappy industrial software, flakey Internet connections and really annoying things like hyper-v occupying network ports when it’s not even open.
The exploding spaceships isn’t really a problem. That’s kind of the intention of the testing process. The way NASA does things, where everything is meticulously tested and nothing can fail ever, works, but it’s slower and more expensive. Destructive testing is faster, and has the benefit of possibly revealing failure modes you didn’t forsee.
I was thinking about desktops, where the fan would be physically plugged into a fan controller instead of into the motherboard. Not sure what that would look like with a laptop.
I was mainly asking because some of those fan controllers default to full on when the usb connection is absent, and Windows doesn’t enable all usb connections until after the user logs into the system.
Do you have your fans controlled by the bios or a fan controller?
I’m a mix of both. That’s why I pay for Spotify, and also own a turntable setup. Sometimes I just want single tracks, sometimes I want to sit down and listen to the entire album. There are some albums where I’ll only listen to the entire thing.
Not sure if Fusion360 supports Linux. Only other choice I can think of is FreeCAD.
Which homes? The ones that are already in short supply? The ones that are currently being rented out? Would that mean nationalizing those buildings? Or are we building new homes? How are we paying for any of this? Raise taxes? Cut some other services?
None of this is simple when it comes down to the details on how to actually implement it.
Youtube averages 122 million users a day. 10 million views makes it far from something the average YouTube user has seen, let alone the average person.
