Just think how bigger it would be if they didn’t block over 170 countries from buying it.

What are things considered romantic, to be avoided in a relationship?

My partner and I just had a talk about it. Basically, she celebrated her birthday today. I was on her party, and it was fun, but I left after around 2 hours to get home and relax a bit. After I arrived, a friend of mine texted me and asked me if I wanted to go to a lake and see the sunset. I agreed, we went to the lake and went...

slazer2au,

Would you plan it in secret to suprise your partner. That is how I classify a romantic moment.

slazer2au,

Quite good episode.

The secret task was amazing and they all managed to score.

Nick was surprisingly good at the live task.

The mannequin task brought back memories of Phill Wang’s costume from an earlier season.

slazer2au,

You are going about this the wrong way. The business doesn’t care about urgency unless it effects their bottom line. Ask any IT person how many times they have had to work stupid hours to fix something a 5 figure purchase would prevent but now the outage is costing then 6 figures.

Approach this from a business mindset. Total cost of ownership, reducing costs, meeting government emission reduction targets.

Specifically look at how much the org spends on reimbursement of fuel and compare it to the cost of electricity.

slazer2au,

Extra long weekend for me.

Sat birthday party. Sun nothing.
Mon public holiday.
Tues day off work.
Wed catching up with my sister while she is in the same hemisphere. Thurs back to work.

Adnausem

It is built on top of unlock origin and will silently click on the ads in the background to mess with your digital footprint while costing advertisers money who use pay per click.

How does AdNauseam “click Ads”?
AdNauseam ‘clicks’ Ads by issuing an HTTP request to the URL to which they lead. In current versions the is done via an XMLHttpRequest (or AJAX request) issued in a background process. This lightweight request signals a ‘click’ on the server responsible for the Ad, but does so without opening any additional windows or pages on your computer. Further it allows AdNauseam to safely receive and discard the resulting response data, rather than executing it in the browser, thus preventing a range of potential security problems (ransomware, rogue Javascript or Flash code, XSS-attacks, etc.) caused by malfunctioning or malicious Ads. Although it is completely safe, AdNauseam’s clicking behaviour can be de-activated in the settings panel.

slazer2au,

by the look of it, yes it can.

slazer2au,

I think it is when a competitor does it in an attempt to make the advertiser lose money.

How to diplomatically handle car drivers who use their horns to demand cyclists make room for them

In this case I operate on the assumption car drivers are inherently good people. So when I am cycling in the middle of the lane (when the lane is too narrow for safe sharing), and they are behind me hitting their horn, I give them the benefit of the doubt as to whether they are being a malicious prick....

slazer2au,

Sounds like a situation where everyone is being as asshole.

Yes they are an ass for blasting their horn, yes you are an ass for stopping in the middle of the road, just cycle on and ignore.

slazer2au,

Ooof, had to double check the community on that one.

slazer2au,

Check out Ask This Old House. Home improvement show that is on YouTube in snips showing how to do stuff from a home owners pov.

Qualified experts of Lemmy, do people believe you when you answer questions in your field?

The internet has made a lot of people armchair experts happy to offer their perspective with a degree of certainty, without doing the work to identify gaps in their knowledge. Often the mark of genuine expertise is knowing the limitations of your knowledge....

slazer2au,

Yes. Because if they don’t believe me the internet breaks.

slazer2au,

Sony still delisted the game from Steam stores in various countries.

What file format do you store your media in?

Hello! I recently listened to a podcast that talked about how storing media files in .av1 format is very efficient and storage-friendly. I’ve been storing my files in .mkv format, but now I’m considering using Handbrake or a similar service to convert all my video files to .av1 if it’s more compressed than .mkv. So;...

slazer2au,

In whichever format it came in. If someone has a guide on how to convert from whatever to x264/5 with minimal loss it would be appreciated.

When I try with hand break the quality dips to much to not make the conversion worth it.

slazer2au,

Having to wait for the porn, one row at a time.

slazer2au,

Report it to safe search so chrome starts blocking the page.

slazer2au,

I will limit my scope to utility companies as that the industry I work in.

Crown corporations should own distribution and access assets. Underground ducts, Data cables, mobile towers, power cables and poles, water pipes and plants, sewerage pipes and plants and such.

For profit companies should be able to interconnect to that infrastructure at a regulated public listed wholesale price for supply and consumption. They should act as a value added reseller. This will lower the barrier to entry for new companies as they are on the same footing as existing companies.

As an example, say PowerPro Pty want into the power market, they buy at the regulated consumption amount and sell for whatever markup they think they can get away with. If they want to expand into power generation, well they know the regulated wholesale price for providing to the grid, they can do their cost analysis. But now they want to get I to the water business so they start bundling power and water plans to customers.

slazer2au,

You totally should add those netmiko scripts into GitHub.

What I do is stash the gns3 project files with my Ansible playbooks so if I need to run up a lab on another machine I have all the gns3 files and the relevant playbooks.
