Fun fact:
I went to a private school where some of the teachers were freemen of the city of London. Apparently, they could request that tower bridge be raised. None of them ever tried, but I believe it is some weird legacy law. They also had the right to drive their sheep across London Bridge, but that one has burnt down, burnt down, burnt down.
Had project manager at previous job the same. Worked about 3" from his screen. He was the proof that a good project manager is worth their weight in gold though. Guy was absolutely brilliant.
What you have just described could be ZigBee and/or MQTT.
It’s a Parks & Rec reference:
It should be an option for those outside the top 1%. Let’s be honest, plenty of jobs suck and a lot of people who look after a children professionally are not the brightest sparks in the fire (at least where I am). Why should someone be forced to do a crap job then give all that salary to someone less cultures than the to look after their kids. Why not just do it themselves?
If one of you has a good, full-time job that should cover basic living expenses. It should also not be looked down. My wife is a stay at home mum, she is also a feminist and I certainly did not not force her to to work. The only thing we regret is the way people (especially other women but not only) look down on her.
A couple of weeks ago I moved Firefox to one side. Window disappeared, but Firefox was still running “somewhere” on my desktop, but was not actually be rendered to the screen. Killing the process and relaunching just resulted in it be rendered to this weird black hole. Log out of gnome and log back in? Same! Reboot? Same!
Ended up deleting it’s config folder and re-attaching to Firefox sync in order to have it working again. No idea what went wrong, nor will I ever most likely.
That didn’t end well last time though
No need for poisoning. Where he was -30°C is normal at this time of year. Not giving him a coat would have been enough to kill him
I’ve had beetles on the forehead while road cycling. Even at 40km/h that seriously hurts. Wouldn’t want it to happen at 100!
Shame, one of my favourite workplace proximity associates is called Kyle.
Do they still do the free tier that gives 10 pages a month?
50% of 0 == 0 :)
Yeah, for a living room TV the only option is either “digital signage” or no network.
I’ll just stick to not connecting my TV to the network.
Will he cancel it though? Or will “Trump Trains” become a thing?
The US invented neither trains nor cars.
It is true the US was basically built on railroads, so I agree that it should have an awesome network, but it is just too big. Even if France ships you all a bunch of TGVs it will take days to go from NYC to LA. Something that takes hours by plane.
Sysadmins have no idea what they are doing, we’re just one step ahead of the rest of you at googling stuff.
Or do you have a genuine reason that makes them advantageous?
I have an SUV because:
Truth is that mine (BMW X1) is at most 5cm bigger in any dimension, if at all, than the car on which it is based (Mini Cooper). The extra size is an optical illusion.
Is the sort of parent who gives a 5 year old their own phone going really going to a limit the use? I think the crossover in that Venn diagram is pretty small.
