@ve7fim I have done this manually a few times and I can say that it's ... Optimistic. When it doesnt want to go, it doesnt want to go. Also the harder is usually to pull the actual cables. :)
@f4grx I've pulled so much cable through conduit using a manual fish, and this would really help... Just the distance measurement alone is so useful, because then I can cut my cable to length before pulling it back through.
I don't understand how they can ignore all the usability research that shows how a non-responsive laggy site will make people hate them and drive their user base away. Are they that out of touch?
Or is that their goal?
I mean, this is the company that wants to put "AI" buttons on everything...
I just picked up a working National Instruments PXI crate full of cards at auction for $170. You don't want to know what they used to go for back in the day...
Having used LabView a fair bit back in the days (I still have my copy of the very original release of Labview 1.0 for Macintosh), I think the concept of visual languages, especially for signal processing and hardware-adjacent work has been unfairly maligned.
@ve7fim even now I still have "USB 3.0 port scarcity syndrome" where I try to put USB 2 in 2.0 ports instead of 3.0 ports, even if the computer is entirely 3.0, or I don't have anything going into the 3.0s yet
Phone company doesn't send a bill like they usually do, then tries to enrol me in direct deposit without my consent or knowledge, then sends me a nastygram saying that "Pre-authorized payment has failed", with a penalty fee.
And people wonder why they are one of the most despised companies around here...
Oh, and they raised the price of their service, too.
