He said “If you drink too much or you eat too much or you walk too much; if you do too much of anything, you’re going to suffer eventually.”

Sounds like a boring 111 years

Krastorio 2 + space exploration on the same file works well together

“documenting the change” is a pipe dream.

If you’ve ever worked in maintenance, active production, etc, you’ll be lucky to even have schematics. And trust me, there are a lot of hacks of people fucking with controls for 30+ years straight that soooo much of it is full of “fixes” like this, whether it’s something pushing a button in, or pieces of metal instead of fuses, or wires jumping over what’s “in the way” like whole safety systems and e-stops, contactors forced to run, etc etc etc.

Drills and taps two holes, adds a metal strap, and sacrifices a tool to save a 5 minute fix of jumping over the contact with a 2" piece of wire lmfao

I work on industrial controls. Very likely that the switch is momentary, meaning it’ll go back when released.

Sometimes there’s a little piece of plastic in them to remove the momentary setting, but this works too lol. Fuck it, it’s maintenance.

Hell no

I test and design massive industrial electrical systems used in steel mills, power grid distribution, space equipment, coal mines, oil & gas, etc etc etc.

They didn’t even figure out electricity at the time

Vote (cope) harder

I don’t get why people think I’m out at work or everyone supports me being gay or something based on my comment.

I’ve heard vile homophobia at work. They’re still gonna be homophobes no matter what in November

You’re saying this to a gay guy who works around trumpers in a factory.

Trump being president doesn’t mean the gays will be rounded up into camps or something. I hate when people play this card that we’re all gonna get fucking murdered and it’s my fault for not voting blue, like what? It’s apparent that it’s playing on emotions to use LGBT people as some weird guilt trip and it’s honestly pretty gross. I can take care of myself and my partner and our home just fine thanks. And I feel no differently safety wise whether it’s a Republican or Democrat in office.

God what the fuck is this comment. Donezo? Can you not make a genocide into tryin to be cute or whatever tf this is

Fuck Biden. Committed leftists / socialists / communists are not gonna hand wring about one president over another. I haven’t voted since Obama 2012, no plans to start anytime soon. Electoralism will not save us and I’m tired of hearing the lesser of two evils is the solution for the last, idunno 50 years? Unless a candidate were to stop all weapon sales to Israel (never gonna happen), it’s not worth all this song and dance bullshit

Hyup. I was born and raised here, and love the city to death.

Wilkinsburg is a bit of a strange part of town. It’s one of a few neighborhoods that have resisted annexation for a century plus. Just look at a map of Pittsburgh and you’ll see big empty holes (literally mount Oliver is completely surrounded by the city). This results in some weird circumstances, wilkinsburg has really high taxes, shit schools, and is one of the rougher parts of town.

On the other hand, I love where I’m at in the city, I got a beautiful 1800 sq ft 4BR home built in 1890 along the river. I can see the water from my front stoop. $160k, and I have a few roommates. Currently slowly renovating the place.

It is a bit ironic opening Instagram or something and seeing posts like “omg! Pittsburgh is so affordable, my rent is under $2k!!!” For those shitty “luxury” apartments going in all over the country. Meanwhile, my mortgage is $830 because I bought during covid.

I feel the creep and know the city isn’t gonna be affordable forever. Wages are still a bit shit around here.

The OP said “house”. Interpret that however you’d like I guess. If you bought this place for $10k in cash, I don’t know who exactly would stop you from clearing out a room and living in it while working on it.

You can get a loan for just about anything from the bank. You don’t even have to be very specific about what you’re using it for. All they care about is credit history, what interest rates they’re giving you, length of loan, blahblahblah

Like $15k if you want a total gut & remodel

Edit: found one for $10k. Fun. https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/1205-Mill-St-Pittsburgh-PA-15221/11379395_zpid/?utm_medium=referral

Cue every one of the factory workers at my job to crack jokes about a Chinese invasion all day

Get wrekt

I post as I still have problems with Wayland on Arch lmao

Yeah I don’t even hear the big 40A power supplies at work, usually 3 or 4 of them in a row on din rail.

The variable frequency drives are a different story, sometimes those sound like the worst high frequency you’ve ever heard in your life. But I don’t even hear those all the time anymore, depending on the drive.

I take steps to make sure my tinnitus isn’t getting worse. But about all you can do is try and protect your ears as best as you can. Once it’s there, it’s there to stay

This seems like a dumb tiktok trend or some shit. It’s hard to get by in this world without a cellphone

But I just wish anyone would still want to talk on the phone. I love chatting with friends for an hour or so on the phone but everyone hates it now. Quick random texts just feel so much less personal. Ah well

Wow Linux 12 lookin sooo much better than Windows 12

What a load of crap. My phone is 5 years old and the only security risk is me blindly installing questionable APKs off the Internet or clicking pop-up ads or something. It’s not like I’m walking around with a time bomb or anything when all I do is browse a few apps and text and call.

Also the new pixel 8 supposedly is supposed to come with 7 years of updates. It’s entirely possible Google abandons that plan though, given their track record.
