I got hit by a car while biking without a helmet! Toppled up onto their hood and slid off once they came to a complete stop. Totalled the bike. I just got really fucking lucky and didn’t hit my head. Would not advise.
I was just lazy and didn’t go back up to my apartment once I got down and realized I had forgotten the helmet, because it was “just a short ride to the park”. Never again.
Yea tech got corrupted with the high software salaries. A friend of a friend is a software engineer, really smart guy, really nice and fun to be around from the few times I met him. But I lost a lot of respect for him once he told me he works for Samsung’s ad department. I’m sure he makes a crap load though.
Fair point. I wasn’t really thinking of the book of revelations when I made that comment. Or the concept of hell. I’m agnostic/atheist now and don’t really care what people think the afterlife or end of times may look like (as long as they’re not actively trying to start the apocalypse or some shit). I more meant the teachings about loving your neighbor and feeding the hungry and helping the poor.
Pretty sure he also taught about false prophets and not trying to predict the end of times, but they seem to be ignoring that too, at least the extremists. I’d be on board with people living their daily lives how Christ taught is what I meant.
I grew up in Texas in the 90s, in their public schools and going to church every Sunday. I’d be fine with Christianity if they all actually read the teachings of Christ and acted accordingly. But… Nah…
And even then, if that fantasy were reality, it shouldn’t be forced in public schools
Thanks :) I got incredibly lucky and walked away with only 3 bruises and a couple scrapes.
Oh neat, I’m one of the green people in the first two rows. Not 100% sure how fast they were going, somewhere in that range. Just glad it was a short sedan and not a big truck/SUV. I live in the US, could’ve easily been a truck and ran over me instead of me toppling onto the hood.
I literally just recommended CachyOS to my boss while we were complaining about Windows 11 in our one on one meeting today
It has always applied to LEO. Scifi media transformed it into the idea of “nothing will ever be able to leave the planet ever again” but the original studies that the phrase originated from included LEO. Despite the fact that there is enough atmosphere that a lot of the debris would experience sufficient drag for their orbits to decay within several years, not decades or millenia, it would still have huge impacts.
I’ve had to do training at work that I’m fairly certain was mostly AI generated. The pics and audio seemed to be. And even the questions that I had to get right in order to complete the training… Some of them just weren’t covered in the training. Come on
The term USian? I’ve only ever seen it used on lemmy. I don’t like it. Mostly because I don’t know how to pronounce it.
High inclination orbits at 500-2000km altitude… Uh… Someone forgetting about the radiation belts?
Likely going to end up on the edge of the inner van Allen belt. Needs more shielding and may be impacted by single event effects (transients from high energy particles depositing charge within the circuitry, can cause issues like bit flips or latchups or even damage chips)
I at least have external backups for important family pics and docs! But yea the homelab itself is severely lacking. If it dies, I get to start from scratch. Been gambling for years that “I’ll get around to a backup solution before it dies”. I wouldn’t bet on me :|
What’s a backup solution…? (I’m only being half sarcastic, I really need to set one up, but it’s not as “fun” as the rest of my homelab, open to suggestions)
Agreed. I wasn’t the one that claimed that
Note, I don’t know how comprehensive this wiki list is, just quick research

From those, I’m only currently using a handful.
balenaEtcher, Discord, Synergy, and Obsidian
I guess I was assuming they wanted a forewarning system, to prevent finding out the hard way that it was a shart not a fart
Not sure how smart undies could accomplish that. Unless they come with some sort of insertable environmental monitoring probe…
Eh, in this case yes, but I’ve seen two musicians do it at hardcore and metal shows recently. Both after talking about mental health and/or suicide within the community. I’m fine with those
