I loved that show. Some famous actors in this show are Clancy Brown, Terry O'Quinn, Tim Curry, Antonio Sabato Jr. I wish it wasn't cancelled.

It won't open in Brave on Linux either.

I'll give it a photo of myself from 10 years ago so that my coworkers don't realize that I'm getting old.

I hadn't heard of this before either, but after seeing the Wikipedia article, I'm not sure if this is correct, but I'd summarize it as the activity of fidgeting.

I got myself free API access to openweathermap.org and added it to Home Assistant. You can create some nice dashboard items from the data from it.

The simple answer would be just to click "instances" at the bottom of any lemmy page to view the list of other instances the one you're on is federated with. Most instances have both a linked list and blocked list on that page.

I wonder if it can be cheaper and better at scale than iron-air batteries. Those seem inexpensive to make, and can carry a large enough capacity if you put a whole lot of them in parallel with each other, and have a long lifetime. They're just really heavy for their amount of energy density and fairly low current per cell, but that shouldn't be a problem when building enough to be grid-scale.

Old me would've been all about such a nice upgrade, but now that I've been upgraded to 1G/1G Google Fiber in the first place earlier this year, I'm just happy to have that.

Even with more equipment besides that which they provide upgraded, it would be hard to notice a difference most of the time and wouldn't be worth the extra $55 a month. It is nice knowing it's an option in case I outgrow 1 Gbps. My current fileserver when I do a zfs send command piped into xz with -9 compression to send to backblaze b2, is still a little slower than 300 Mbps.

On the technicians line of an electronics manufacturing facility, had a new hire come in on his first day. He was friendly. So much so that he wanted to use my workstation to log into his Yahoo mail and show me some pictures some female sent him. He calls up the photos and it's full nudity real big on my computer monitor. I tell him "dude, we can't have porn at work, close that out." He panics and turns off the monitor. At some point I have to turn the monitor and close out of the browser, when no one is looking.

He was showing a pretty inattentiveness to his first day on the job training just not seeming to want to have anything to do that's any kind of actual work.

Before the lunch break, he announced that he's going to the restroom, then is never seen again. All I could tell the supervisor was that he said he was going to the restroom hours ago then haven't seen him since.
