Been there too

Murray!

Technically, it was a display made from E. Coli cells, not actually programming the microbes to run it themselves…

… but yes, Doom has been used in a computer where the display was E. Coli.

“Actively Commissioning” and “Subsidizing” are two different contexts. Your points are all accurate, but commissioning a movie means actually going out and saying, “we want this movie, and will pay/provide resources to it in order for it to get done”, versus “your doing a movie with military, we’ll provide resources in compensation for a meddlers credit”.

I’ll be honest, I’m still screwing around trying to get a working *arr stack on my pi4b, but then I’m also looking for more stuff on there and having it deployed as a network device automatically with dimension hosting, DNS, DHCP and stuff like that with a glutun VPN securing it all… So yeah :⁠-⁠D

If you got those running in windows, given they’re built for a Linux environment (I guess you either used docker or windows subsystem for Linux), then you’re eminently ready to move to Linux.

Bernard Hill does look a lot alike in certain angles; never seen it before myself but you pointing it out and now I can’t not see it.

I was home taught in the UK. Have a real love for learning that’s kick-started me into a career in computing that I’ve kept going for over two decades. Can’t stop, won’t stop reading, learning and improving. The number of colleagues I’ve had who just want a TL;DR on a new tech, software, plugin or system is too many. It’s our job to understand it, so we can build something so that others don’t have to. If you don’t want to understand, you’re in the wrong job role.

No, that’s fair. Coffee at pressure is about 93 - 95°C… No idea for drip/french press/v60 etc. as I don’t use those For Aeropress, I’d wait until the kettle stopped making noise, that seemed to be a good balance without burning the oils.

Coffee isn’t a tea, as you don’t boil it. If you boil it, you burn the coffee! That’s an extraction - you can steep it, but it’s better if you just push the water through at high pressure (which will royally screw up a tea).

Ah, pedantry in pedantry. So - now for Lemmy to tell me what I’ve gotten wrong :⁠-⁠D

Challenger disaster

I always remember that it’s eXtract Ze File, tar -xzf… But I’ll be honest, I’ve not used it in years and years

“just just” - another ohnosecond moment.

Fermi Estimation. Where you’re dealing with something so big, you’re just interested in the magnitude.

Missing Willey, willeymoor and many other derivatives

Good luck with the update in (if I’m right in the timezone calculation) a couple of hours…

Lb-ft is force - the number of pounds per foot. Pounds is 1/14 of a stone, or a Stone is 14 pounds. 2.2 pounds per kilogramme.

Coding, system monitoring (Work / Home network), Slack / Meet / whatever… generally I’ll have 3 or 4x screens-worth doing work stuff, 1 or 2 for monitoring stuff, one or two for various chat sessions. It’s easier than alt-tabbing all the time.

I have two 4k monitors, and two laptops and a desktop controlled from one mouse and keyboard with seamless traversal across all of them thanks to mouse without borders. Desktop goes to one 4k monitor, split into 4 quarters to give the equivalent of 4 1080p screens, and each laptop is displayed side-by-side on the other monitor (plus their own 1080p screens to give 3x 1080p screens equivalent each… The picture in picture mode on these lg’s is actually usable). It’s an upgrade from the previous 4x 1080p screens to the equivalent of 10x 1080p screens, and I still need more screen space!
