Home pools here are almost never saltwater.

We simply add chlorine tabs until the pH is the correct color on the strips. Even if we knew it would be 62.4 lbs of salt, it’s not like you can buy a 62.4 lb bag of salt.

But yeah, it is a lot harder to do applied math in the US, which is why science here went metric :)

A billion years ago, I worked for a place that was using Cold Fusion.

There was this one project that had a loop with a break condition, but the devs kept accidentally putting errors in the break logic. The project was pretty processor intensive. I got calls 5-6 times a day to reset the CF server because stopping the HTML page wouldn’t do #$%^

Can you guys please just add a second break module so you can just load another page and cause the project to abort? hell make it dump a file in /tmp, whatever…

Motivational posters are the worst. I’ve never worked at a place that had them that didn’t have their head up their asses.

Want to motivate me? Give me good wages, lots of vacation and keep the shitheads out of the company. Current place puts a premium on culture fit, anyone can interview, if any single person is uncomfortable, they’re a no-go. We’ve had some solid talent booted out the door because they couldn’t stop from being as ass for a couple hours.

10 THINGS YOU CAN SAY TO YOUR EMPLOYEES TO DEMEAN THEM AND SNEAKILY ENCOURAGE THEM TO EMBRACE YOUR WAGE THEFT.

but I’d argue voting third party outside of swing states

absolutely, and i’m a fan of this, let’s get congress full of third, as long as it’s not libretarian third :)

know progressive policies get people excited. They’re not interested in being progressive. They’re only interested in maintaining the status quo and if stepping on you is necessary to do that, they’ll happily do it. Some of them will make a somber face on

All fine and dandy, but voting 3rd without the 3rd being actually viable is just voting 1st for the other side.

They run off batteries, using either isotope decay or light sensor (or both)

I actually have one hanging off my ceiling right now, it’s battery was fine, but it tripped likely due to dust or a spider on the optical sensor. It went off at 2am, network sent them all off, took me 10m to find the right one I wasn’t about to just blow it out and out put it back on the ceiling :)

s are 2 extremes of this same pro-late stage capitalist status quo system so expecting anything to change by vacillating between them is an unrealistic non-starter.

I don’t disagree, but voting for a 3rd in a tw- party race will also be a useless non-starter.

The republicans have a strong enough, brainwashed base that will vote for them come hell or high water. Around 35% of people who will vote are seriously engaged on their side and will do whatever they need to vote for them. That’s a pretty strong hurdle to overcome

The democrats also have a contingent of Better Blue than Red and will vote for them no matter what.

The largest party next in line would be the Green party, and honestly, they’re barely trying. I mean the head of the party has investments in Fossil Fuel companies supporting fracking. AOC rightfully critisized them for a lack of organiztional development. It’s just this mess of funding going in and our for visibility and the dilution of the “not republican” vote.

So voting for a third party, at best, lets the republicans continue their destruction of the country and sends a message to the democrats that we’re tired of their crap, which has happened twice now with zero changes.

If you want us to vote for 3rd party, you need to deliver us a 3rd party with enough leadership to campaign and win it.

hmm, so the US citizens trying to get the Democrats to stop aligning with the Republicans should just stop because they’re indistinguishable. Got it.

Be bored because there’s an overwhelming amount to do, but it’s all so vague and horrible that you can’t overcome the couch-intertia to start.

I’m not saying he’s right, or good, just making an observation.

I see a Vet who lost his house, is in the process of losing his healthcare, and just feels like he needs a win on the bad investment he’s doubling down on.

get the grill ripping hot outside (500 degrees)

put cooking oil on a paper towel and swab the whole cast iron pan

Throw it on the grill until it stops smoking

pull it off, let it cool a little and swab it again (super thin layer)

Throw it on the grill until it stops smoking

repeat until you’re happy with the color

needs an ethernet there for good measure.

Project manager said to keep it simple try to get it done sooner rather than better

Just leave PWM disconnected, with cooling more is better, especially if it’s one of those bloweymatron ones that sounds like a jet taking off.

Sorry, i have a hammer, you know how that goes ;)

You know… I’ve been tracking political stuff in a bookmark manager. Would Jira actually do a better job? I could link things together and write about updates…
