Technically I have to go again yo return all the things I bought but ended up not using / needing.
It took me 2 days; Day 1 shopping and removing the old one - it died the stupid computer won't run the machine parts death that most things do these days Day 2 was dumping the old one, picking up the new one and going to the hardware store for things like an outlet and box and drywall saw. Then it took me something like 6? hours to figure out putting the new one in and trying to do a good job despite not knowing what the hell I'm doing.
I don't get how installers do this stuff so quickly and every single day. My back hurts. There's a bag of parts I don't know what to do with. There's no kick plate and there's rubber shit hanging down from the door of the new dishwasher and I don't know what it's supposed to stick to?? The new dishwasher is like, 1/4" (quarter of an inch) skinnier than the old one, so now there's a gap on the side of the cabinet that I don't know how to solve.
I'm both proud that I got it in and it seems to actually work and stuff.... but because there's some jank in there I'm not sure whether it matters or if I should worry about it or embrace it or what.
I'm also worried that it's gonna break in a couple years anyway despite my best efforts or whatever and that I'll have to go through this all over again.
Anyway, thanks for reading.

Having professionally terminated fiber, that shit is nasty and hazardous in a way copper will never be.
The little fiber bits can be razor sharp, you have to be careful of the naked fiber end, because it can get into your skin like a splinter, only it is clear, nearly invisible, can shatter if grabbed too hard, and is invisible to MRI and X-RAY scans...
There's a great talk called "Lawyer. Passport. Locksmith. Gun." From saintcon that's really good.
Thanks for the heads up.
Time for a new CEO. Would be great is they went with a nonprofit board with explicit privacy/public good bylaws and at least 1 member elected from the user base... But that's pretty wishful thinking, huh...
it's very early days for loops and as far as i've seen there's no option to host your own instance (though they say it will be open source, it is not right now). https://loops.video/help-center/frequently-asked-questions
Not just you. I saw this earlier and was sure it was fake. (Mostly because there were hundreds of the same or similar comments about how lithium batteries catch fire)
I can't wait for a new left party.
This is written as if the election were still in the future. We're going in, and it's going to be hell. This is the loadout selection screen before the match starts. We need to be thinking of ways we can bolster our communities and defend ourselves.
My favorite thing to do while waiting for a game to load.
Also a clever way to react to the usual "where the fuck is the mouse" action people take which is to just shake the shit out of it till they see it. Love it.
PopOS. It was the easiest to get my Nvidia GPU set up and plays all the games that I wanna play without too much pain. I've been meaning to try something like Arch with KDE, something like what my SteamDeck is using... but I don't wanna fuck around setting up Arch.
I feel like I've seen this picture as a child and.... You know what fuck this bullshit. I hated school.
This is exactly how my local municipal fiber network works. The the county owns, and builds put, the fiber network and maintains it, selling network access to local ISPs who sell to customers.
Only shitty part is that if you want to have a connection built out that isn't on their plan, you have to fund the fiber run to you from wherever the nearest spot is, and that can be many thousands of dollars.
I imagine if we expanded the program like you're talking about in the rest of the world, we could actually run it fine, like, we have the ability to... It's just that the people in power are fucking awful.
