I say this from the bottom of my heart…

Fuck Chuck.

My god this hits home.

I’ve even had a situation where she wants it in a certain place but there isn’t anything there to drill into because of all the previous holes. So I’d drill a huge hole, fill it with a short piece of a fat dowel that I glue in, wait several hours, get the Drydex to fill the gaps, wait another hour, match the wall paint, wait another hour and then finally be able to hang the fucking curtain. Of course she wants it in a different place after I’ve done all this…… 😔

Is it 0%?

Then it’s too high.

I’m 55 and wonder both. I think it’s a realizing your own mortality thing.

This guy has definitely drank Baileys from a shoe….

No because the neural systems for those defenses are still too immature. The have a startle reflex called the Moro reflex but it isn’t quite the same thing.

Gravity therapy is also effective

This fucker is so removed from reality he has no clue what’s expensive and what isn’t. I’d wager he’s never operated a gas pump in his life.

You could give him a $200k salary, a home in some little town, and a car that was all paid for, and he’d starve to death in a year. He is beyond clueless as to what people have to do on a daily basis.

Is this Destination Fucked?

Suspended with pay is called a fucking vacation.

I suck at this game but today I guess I got lucky.

The bankruptcy thing in the LEO world has to do with getting into situations where they could easily be compromised, not punishing them for bad financial decisions. The idea being it’s easier to bribe and control you. I’m not arguing for or against just that’s the reasoning.

Not that it matters. Notice ICE isn’t deporting wealthy immigrants just the poors. Same way with regular cops. I live where people often have $100k cars and you never see one of them pulled over. I’ve been cut off by more than one Beamer driving recklessly on the way into work and it’s never them.

You are 100% right. They will pass all of this and it will suck for a large majority of us. I’m not suggesting it will all be unenforceable (although a large part might be). I’m venting that these people in charge are seeing an opportunity to control and limit much of what has gotten away from being easily surveilled in the first place.

This is no different than the half a dozen various legislative “solutions” to keeping children online safe.

• CDA (1996)
• COPA (1998)
• DOPA (2006)
• COPPA 2.0 (2022)
• KOSA (2022-24)

The common thread is it’s never really about children or keeping anyone “safe”. It’s about controlling people and information. Previously there were lots opposition from various tech industries and infighting but this seems to be gaining traction which scares the crap out of me. The obvious technical limitations, first amendment violations, and giant loopholes from the internet being a global thing are still there but it doesn’t seem to matter.

There is so much shit they haven’t thought of trying to ram this through it isn’t funny. Not a one of these dumb motherfuckers has any clue how tech works or what kind of headaches this is going to bring to the tech industry. It’s all feel good politics meant to look good but not actually do any good whatsoever, so theater like most of it already (see TSA). There will be so many loopholes in ways to get around it, it will be less than useless.

Also flux and the appropriate solder make a huge difference.

Was he? Or did brain damage turn him republican? Because it seems like there is something mentally wrong with most republicans.

I totally understand your frustration. It was a bit of bait and switch. I don’t like relying on a tool being hosted either because if Keychron goes away, it’s electronic waste at that point. I had a Steele series Apex keyboard that I loved. The per key RGB configuration was awesome. But their proprietary Mac software was buggy at best and often a pain in the ass to get what I wanted. I eventually gave up on them and switched to more open keyboards.

Honestly I’m not sure why they chose to have the configuration tool online. Seems like something they have to maintain long term which seems kinda dumb. Most of the QMK keyboards are VIA/Vial compatible which can be locally configured.

But after configuring my keyboard, I haven’t touched it. So in your analogy I had to solder the wire once and it’s been stable.

I personally chose Keychron (I have three) because they are excellent quality and have Mac keys by default. I love Macs but damn the keyboards just suck. I have several other keyboards in a drawer that were based on QMK or circuit python (KMK) but they required sourcing cases, keys, switches, etc none of which I had to do with my keychron, well unless I wanted to.

Really? I just read a a bit about your process and I’d watch an entire YouTube video of the whole process.

But I’m a sucker for fixing things. It’s one of the things I get the most joy from in life.
