Governments around the world grapple with not having access to their email, due to a Microsoft outage. It really is time for them to host their own mail services and generally diversify. Relying so heavily on Big Tech is just a really bad idea.
I couldn't see certain cells on a shared Excel spreadsheet at work, struggled for months. Was convinced I needed new glasses so booked an eye test. And then I turned the brightness up on my laptop. I'm a senior IT infrastructure engineer.
@fesshole still good to get a regular eye test
Anyone have a source for a Sanyo VCR4200/Sanyo VCR4300/Marantz VR200 VCR service manual or schematic?
I've gone as far as I can trying to troubleshooting a capstan servo issue and my brain is now mush.

This stream of posts brought to you by a small burst of energy after eating some auntie annes pretzel dogs which were legitimately the best food option I could reasonably acquire

feel like i need to quote this to stress this fact: the absurd demand for AI compute WAS MADE UP. nvidia had a tsunami of RAM and wafers coming at it it didn't know what to do with and hundreds of billions of dollars worth of GPUs were channel stuffed so hard they're rotting in warehouses
this was market manipulation at massive scale to defraud investors
Its so blindingly obvious that the linux kernel maintainership crisis is one of their own making.
They've been compaining that they don't have enough man power for basically my entire life, and then they continue to refuse to do anything in a way that would ease onboarding like being nice to people or not using email based patch submissions.

@alisynthesis I don’t dislike The Pitt, I just can’t watch it because it is too real. Literally jumped off the couch and had to leave the room mid-episode. 2020-22 fucked me up a bit.
@mcnado oh wow. I can see that. It was slightly trauma-inducing even for me, who has no relevant experience.
This but it's a nationwide ground stop
Congress should have to live in dorms in DC and not be allowed to have apartments there unless they are from DC itself.
And they should have to eat in a cafeteria. Together. Once a day when congress is in session.
The Senators do tend to live in the area, and in the Jurassic period they would host dinner parties for each other.
The old Washington papers (Star and Post) used to social sections which covered the scene.
@whitequark i mean it probably does tbh, but the permanent magnet in the back of the phone alone is enough to cause it to shift a couple dozen kHz when you move the iphone from 20ft away to like 6ft away
Pirate copy of Aldus Pagemaker I for Mac and a copy of Hermes BBS software. 🤔
@ai6yr wow that takes me back
today is the important day of the year where i bleed the radiators. like a medieval physician employed at the court of the boiler. i have a wadded rag of fabric and this special brass implement which i twist. i have to ensure the 4 humors of the central heating system are in balance: clear water, rusty water, methane, and some kind of fluming effluvium. i think the rusty water represents blood, but don't take my word for it, i'm not an expert. speak to a bearer of the crest of the hound of wales
@jk You made my day by using the word effluvium: as a non-native speaker it is literally never used in any English-speaking context I'm in. But it's the name of a level in one of my favorite games in the past, Hexen, and reminded me of it.
The Trump administration just learned why tech folks don’t like releasing updates on Fridays.
