Yo, if you live in Berlin and have a sunny balcony/garden/window. You can get a plug-in solar setup for basically free.
This city subsidy program gives you up to 500€ for a setup and most only cost you around 300-400€.
Its basically free electricity for your apartment/home.

Curious; Does that have an inverter? If it does, can it be connected to my house wiring?
If inverter is not included, how am I (average Joe) supposed to utilize that?

Anyone here played with Pony (https://www.ponylang.io/)? If so, how does it compare to Rust and/or Go? thx

Things not so nice;

  • Type system, to get the compiler to accept the code as safe, is really hard. The reward is that very little runtime issues occur.

  • Community and eco-system is small, but very friendly. No big company backing it, and everyone is a volunteer.

  • Many things that should be "in Pony" is a shim around C (very simple integration) and with C all safety guarantees are out the window.

Due to a "troll factory"-reveal in lefty public service in Sweden, the former Social Democrat tyrant...I mean...prime minister is demanding identification requirements on all major social media platforms. And I think I heard about other forces in EU calling for the same thing.

Just a matter of time before the public is neatly in their 4x4 meter box, can't think and decay to nothingness.

This is clipped segments from Nobody Special's live show. I just want to emphasize what he says at the end:

...the capitalists, we gotta start policing this stuff...

I'm curious to hear what should be done to prevent situations like this, and would like to see those involved jailed for what is highly likely illegal in some form already.

As a Canadian, who does live under single-payer, I will add that the same problems that allow this to happen also make the public option worse. No matter what your system is, accountability is crucial.

The root of evil is state power. Limiting supply by regulation, dumbing down people, and most importantly protecting the individuals doing this from personal consequences and the whole "shareholder protection" thingy.

Policing is just giving the State more power and reducing our freedoms a little bit more.

People want Protection and Safety above all. We will all soon live in a open-air prison. I'd rather live dangerously and free, than safe and "protected".

Next; More CO2 == less oxygen in the atmosphere and less O2 means that blood gets thicker (actual fact) and that's the reason.

So, CO2 emissions lead to blood clots!

In Sweden cash has almost disappeared. I had a single note in my wallet for well over 2 years, before spending it in Jan/Feb at the local bridge club (they also accepted Swish, the P2P payment system in Sweden).
ATMs are soon all gone. Most bank branches don't accept cash! Many shops, bars and restaurants don't accept cash.

And people here are pretty happy about it. Which somewhat scares me.

Has anyone used assembly service with some components skipped? Does the paste still get applied to those pads, or does JLC remove those openings from the stencil? If not, I can do it myself, just curious 🙂

niclas,
@niclas@angrytoday.com avatar

@tomkeddie

I have made boards with ESP32 modules on them, and jlcpcb not populating those, i.e. not in the no LCSC column in the BOM; No Paste.

I can't recall any time where they were out-of-stock, but assume that their process is identical.

Another interesting observation; When ordering Assembly, one can't order a Stencil, which could be related to not be able to have two execution paths of the process.

UK passes "national service" measure.
People who don't want to support war sign up to do the voluntary service hours in the community.
Then the only 'accredited' service hours are at places directly supporting the war effort. Slots are limited.

Yeah... When I was ~18-22, there was mandatory military service in Sweden. Typically 8-12 months depending on role that had been selected for you.

After being there for 8 days, I applied for "Weapons-free service", as it was a way to be sent home and evaluated.

Psychiatric evaluation about my motives; a nearly 5 hour session, and 80 page report written about me (that I could edit and dispute), and I "got" into the weapon-free program.

I was selected for Communication Systems.

I think you should also get a cable rack on the wall and/or at the end of the cable, where Ethernet, USB, HDMI, ++ cables are readily available, not entangled and easy to put back. 3D print your to get reasonable sized grooves and spacing.

Am I the only one who refers to mangosteen as "jewish Mango"?

niclas,
@niclas@angrytoday.com avatar

@freemo

Possibly!

I haven't seen any westerner refer to mangosteen at all. And considering its origin in Malaysia/Indonesia (+PH and I guess TH) with their largely Muslim populations and fondness of the fruit (my 2nd most favorite, after mango) the term is guaranteed not present there.

Quick search on the net leads to a joke; "What do you call a Jewish mango? Mangostein"

Moisturizer is just a heroin addiction for your skin. Do people even realize that if you use it more than a few times it causes your skin to need it to even function and like cigarettes you need to use it just to get your skin like it used to be.

People who use it for years and then stop will literally have their skin peeling off and cracking.

Don't feel bad. A friend of mine studied the T&C and guidelines closely and noticed that it said that nudity depicted in classical art was exempt from the "no nudity" rules.

So, he posted a image of a really old painting, can't remember which one, but in excess of 200 years old.

Temporarily banned for a month!

Appealed by pointing to the clause stating the exemption; Banned upheld after human review.

The idea that it's justifiable to let unspeakable suffering within your community continue when you have enough excess (meaning losing it wouldn't affect your overall quality of life) resources to stop it, just because those resources "belong" to you and you shouldn't be expected to give them up unless you get something better in return, is absolutely the most selfish, morally bankrupt and evil foundation for a society that always leads to fascism eventually.
