I was at work all of 5 minutes before I submitted a deliverable with 2023 in the date.

I still say “They’re ALL grey!” the way Laslo says it whenever they are all grey whatever they may be.

I can’t put it back, there’s no arrange by penis.

i will then give another passive aggresive beep every few minutes until you acknowledge me.

I was trying to book a trip through a travel website, after the 3rd tedious captcha I ended up using another site. I get it, the bot vs captcha war is getting crazy but if your website is unusable then i’m not going to use it.

owa is so much better than outlook for me, at least for my work email. There’s actual dark mode, the servers seem to do all the heavy lifting so it never seems slow, the attachment preview is better and i can download a message as .eml instead of proprietary .msg format. Probably once a day I have to hit F5 because it starts acting weird. You can also make it a PWA. Seriously if you have to use corporate email give OWA a shot.

is there a beef stroganoff community yet? I don’t want to miss it if something big happens.

I wish I could forget oblivion so I could experience it the first time again. Emerging from prison after that long tutorial. Spending hours in complicated oblivion gates.

And the shivering fucking isles. The butterflies.

edit: idk how to spoiler tag

And here I thought the IRA was going to reduce ICE cars on the road by subsidising EVs.

Radio waves are faster in a vacuum, ditch the fan and put it in a shop vac.

In my head I thought of it like a psuedo su and thought sudo was clever, then learning it is like soodoo and I’m highly disappointed. I still say it like psuedo in my head. I use arch btw.

can you launch it from the command line and see if it spits out any useful info before the crash?

Job hopping again for this reason. Really wish employers would pay people to stay, unfortunately employer loyalty is non existant.

So hard to find trusty techs. I get it, a man’s gotta eat, but you don’t have to upsell me parts.

Heck yeah, such a good feeling. When I got home today I was like ‘‘Man, it’s hot outside…sure feels good in here though!’’

It can be simple, you don’t have to understand why something is wrong to know that it’s wrong. They magically know it’s the capacitor because it’s the usual suspect, and they usually look swollen (the capacitor not necessarily the youtuber). Common problems are common, which is why youtube is pretty great because somene has probably had the same problem and posted the fix.

If i was doing HVAC for a living I’d get a resettable blade fuse for this task, but i got a box of fuses for a few bucks and I was able to isolate the problem after 3 guesses so I think it would have been overkill.

Probably, i think they need to get some other quotes though, that price seems pretty high for retrofitting some control systems, granted I don’t know how many endpoints they are managing from this single point of failure.

don’t forget to get that fuse, any car parts store will have them.

Good thinking having spare parts on hand, mine always seems to fail on a saturday afternoon and everyone is closed. I’m just glad my town finally has an AC installer that lets you buy parts from their storefront right off the shelf. Most of the suppliers in town don’t sell parts to us peasants for some reason, i guess they don’t want money.

being an electrical engineer has its perks, but the couple youtube videos i watched didn’t require any technical knowledge, mostly just safety knowledge, like the one hand rule and how to safety squint.
