'Electrical safety' for this one I think?

More fun fact than subject..will file this one under 'safe vehicle handling'

What we need really is a skills tree for real life. Then it would be much easier to spot the things you're level 1 in.

Going back even further to 1991, the trend is still down except for the 2008 financial crisis: https://www.macrotrends.net/countries/NZL/new-zealand/unemployment-rate

This should be a real clear sign that these guys are fucking idiots.

Unemployment since 2009 has been steadily decreasing (almost halved since 2009), and is currently at 2021 levels (4%) https://www.stats.govt.nz/indicators/unemployment-rate

This is not a problem that needs fixing right now.

There was a post about this a month ago. The tldr is that one of the maintainers is arrogant and controlling so a bunch of other people quit. It wasn't out of the blue either, it's been coming for a long time. There are alternative android store options, so its not too much of a big deal

If kids that young want anti-aging products, give them nappies.

Toy Story 5

There's a Toy Story 5?? I haven't even seen the third one yet. Or any of the other ones you mentioned..

Yes, but not quite like the movies.

There is a parasite (I forget the name) that, when it infects a person (or a warm-blooded animal) starts living off the host and storing energy in sacs around the infection point. It often presents itself as tumours, as the sacs can get quite large. Between the sacs there is a voltage difference, it's stored as chemical energy (like a battery with one side less electrons to allow for electron flow).

In severe cases, the parasite has had long enough to grow it's own nerve pathways through the body that can be used like wires. At that point, the tumours are really advanced and enlarged and will usually kill the victim, if not before.

In an effort to spread itself to the next host, the parasite uses the stored chemical energy to activate muscles in the dead host and move the body around to find another host to infect. That's where the whole 'eating flesh' thing in the movies come from, but it's actually the parasite trying to break the skin and be able to jump to a new victim.

In reality, this stage only lasts a few hours but as long as the muscles haven't deteriorated too much, it can be any 'few hours' movement within a couple days of death if the parasite is unable to immediately reinfect and instead waits for a period of time.

In three years, 90% of animated films are going to be generic crap churned out for a quick buck.

 

Just kidding, there is no closure. I could not replicate this issue again after multiple reboots.

Linked original thread: https://lemmy.nz/post/1024414

Just wanted to say thanks to everyone for their suggestions, and easier to make a post here than reply to each single comment.

 

When I was working minimum wage at a gas station many eons ago, we would have '2 for $x' specials where x is less than 2 times the individual price of whatever item.

People would often not want to buy 2, but I would ring up 2 in the till for the special price and charge them for the single. Then when the next person did the same, I would charge them for the other single.

So over the day, I would sell 10 energy drinks at say $4, but ring them up as 5 '2 for $6' specials. This would put the till up by $10, and then I would use that $10 to have a free meal.

Anyone else do anything like that?

 

Just following on from this: https://lemmy.nz/post/1134134

Ex-Tesla employee reveals shocking details on worker conditions: 'You get fired on the spot.'

I'm curious about how far this goes.

You can't get fired on the spot in NZ, unless you like, shot someone or set the building on fire or something really bad.

But it seems that in the US, there's little to no protections for employees when their bosses are dickheads?

Also, any personal stories of getting fired on the spot?

Probably should find a linux networking specific community for this one..

I have a strange issue that feels very familiar, like I've fixed it before, but I can't remember how.

I try to rtsp to security cam:

ffplay rtsp://user:password@192.168.19.137:554/h264Preview_01_main

And I get a no route:

Connection to tcp://192.168.19.137:554?timeout=0 failed: No route to host

rtsp://user:password@192.168.19.137:554/h264Preview_01_main: No route to host

Strange, I'm in the same subnet 192.168.19.129/24, and it worked a few days ago.

Check ping:

ping 192.168.19.137

PING 192.168.19.137 (192.168.19.137) 56(84) bytes of data.

64 bytes from 192.168.19.137: icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=5.69 ms

Of course.. So I run the command again;

ffplay rtsp://user:password@192.168.19.137:554/h264Preview_01_main

And now it works.

I could bandaid by crontabbing a ping every hour or something, but I would really like to know why I'm getting a 'no route' until I ping.

My routing table is pretty basic:

default via 192.168.19.1 dev enp4s0 proto dhcp src 192.168.19.129 metric 100

default via 192.168.19.1 dev enp4s0 proto dhcp src 192.168.19.129 metric 1002

172.17.0.0/16 dev docker0 proto kernel scope link src 172.17.0.1 linkdown

172.18.0.0/16 dev br-68c1e0344e27 proto kernel scope link src 172.18.0.1 linkdown

192.168.19.0/24 dev enp4s0 proto dhcp scope link src 192.168.19.129 metric 1002

192.168.19.1 dev enp4s0 proto dhcp scope link src 192.168.19.129 metric 1024

And I don't think I have any rules in firewall for LAN.

Any ideas?

 

Kind of two questions..

when I open a new tty(?) by using ctrl alt f4, what is that interface called? I assume it's a tty?

Secondly, how can I change the resolution?

 

Seriously, what is the business justification for that vehicle?

 

We are getting spam posts from szmer.info.

From a user I doubt they will pay attention, but from an instance owner maybe they will step in?
