Gotta appreciate the level of commitment on this commit…

Great, as soon as you have that working we’ll just make it useless in Ubuntu and rebundle everything plus their mothers in a snap

Hot take: birthrate is high when it’s economically profitable to have kids - helping hands all around to take care of stuff. When they’re a financial burden for the rest of your life besides substantially worsening your quality of life, birthrate plummets.

The secret here is to come up with a business case that shows management what an incredible ROI they should expect from this initiative.

Then you get to play with robots for a few months instead of actually working!

Why do you ask this as if it’s not a thing?

Look up Santiago Bernabéu or Camp Nou, two of the largest stadiums in Europe, and you find no over ground parking lots. Same applies to most stadiums, with many actually being very well articulated with mass transit, to the point that it’s much quicker to just take the subway/train/bus on match day than to be stuck in traffic for hours.

Why the down votes? Bro asking a question and being legit curious, don’t be hating on someone that’s looking to challenge what they know just because it’s trivial to you.

Could you like squish shale in an oven to make it more like slate? Even if it’s not economical, just interested in the science of it.

I’d do it just to style on the new guy, start with something like “ah, so humanity has lost the skills that we possessed in the days of yore…”

(TL note: this is in reference to companies refusing to up the pay for their skilled workforce, and ending up paying more to new guys that’ll have to learn it all from scratch)

It’s complicated. Technically no, but God can roll out a new image with the updates, so in practice, yes?

Why is religion never simple…

I use TZ identifiers, and confirm the expected behaviour (“Berlin time, correct?”), as then I know how I should handle DST changes.

It should be implemented in people’s brains.

How this goes, usually, is:

Them:…before 6PM.

Me: 6PM… Ours? The server’s? The user’s?

Them: GMT, of course.

Me: So that’s 7PM London right now, and changes to 6PM in November?

Them: What no are you stupid. Always 6PM GMT.

Me:* jumps off a cliff*

What the hell is this? A corp not trying to squeeze every single penny they can get out of an IP? Damn commies hope their next game flops so bad they’re back to living in their momma’s basements.

/S

It does a stellar job of creating innovations that maximize profits, just look at enshitification! A masterpiece in shareholder value.

Uh yes, pin to base.

I still couldn’t come up with a way to make it work using a resistor-capacitor circuit, but I did learn a lot (that particular rabbit hole led to me an article discussing capacitance in potato tubers…!).

There is probably a better way of solving it, but at least I got it working with another transistor to “decouple” that sensitive pin from the base. I’m not exactly sure why there’s a negative voltage across base and emitter, but it was preventing boot.

I’d be very interested in hearing any criticism you would be willing to share. I have hopes of moving this from my breadboard and solder it to a PCB so I can put it into a paper-cut lightbox that will be controllable from HomeAssistant, but I wouldn’t want to risk setting anything on fire…

One thing that concerns me is that 7333A. I only have it in a TO-92 package, and while it’s only powering the ESP-01S, which doesn’t really draw that much current, it still gets uncomfortably hot to touch (I can hold it for a few seconds, but not much longer). Is there a better alternative, or is it supposed to get hot?

Thank you!

[edit: updated the circuit, I had misplace a resistor]

Im sorry, noob here. I don’t know what the voltage at the reset pin would be when the capacitor is discharged, my first guess would be 0v but the answers there say it’s the reverse - VCC at power on, then goes to gnd as it charges.

If that’s the case, I think it’s exactly what I need.

I’ll test it out later today (and I’ll go read more about how this capacitor+resistance circuit works…).

No way. I could see 20 in heavy city use and loaded, but 30 to 40 mpg is fairly standard.

I played it as part of Xbox live, paid $20 for 2 months. Ended up playing a lot more of Senua Sacrifice than I did Starfield.

That price is very acceptable, almost a convenience fee that I gladly pay so I don’t have to look for torrents and stuff.

I would never pay the hyperinflated prices that are being asked for AAA nowadays, especially for digital copies that, as PlayStation is keen to teach us, are worthless.

Came looking for this.

Get rid of Gabe and put in the Unity board, and we’ll be paying extra for every Mb we download…

This isn’t the reason, it doesn’t matter if Hamas accuses them or not.

They’re considered hostages because Hamas wants to release them in exchange for something.

Israel imprisons Palestinian as a punishment or to achieve specific goals that are not met by releasing them (like preventing political prisoners from engaging with society).

I don’t think either term is morally superior to the other, but they do have some different connotations…

Not saying you’re wrong, but a source to go with that would be great.
