I used to work on the website for a utility company that insisted on ridiculous uptime. Our major deployments risked taking the system down for a few seconds, though in practice that never happened.

As a result, they made us do deployments starting at 3:00 in the morning since that was the least active time on the site. Fuuuuuuuuck that place.

I think the best system would be not to allow tariffs to be illegally implemented in the first place. But I realize that’s asking a lot.

I still can’t bring myself to watch any of the spin offs. People keep telling me how good they are, but I was burned before and need time to learn to love again.

Interesting take. I guess I just realized every video we’ve ever seen of humanoid robots had been them doing something for a few minutes. But you never hear of one doing anything for days, months or years outside of science fiction.

I’ve got 5,800 and am not on the list. What the fuck?!

“We really sound like that?”

Other people have mentioned Baltimore, so I thought I’d share the video: https://youtu.be/Esl_wOQDUeE

This is why conservatives are anti-sex ed and anti-abortion.

I hate that we’ve had to change this calculation from a billionaire to a trillionaire. Both are fucking disgusting numbers.

Also, I swear to God if anyone mentions compound interest I’m gonna strap you to one of Elon’s exploding rockets.

Sometimes Lemmy posts line up in perfect coincidences and it freaks me out a little.

Huh, it works on my machine…

TLDW; billionaire Michael Bloomberg is behind multiple laws in mostly blue states to require spyware be added to all 3D printers under the banner of “gun control”.

He’s attempted to hide this as a grassroots effort, when in reality it’s nearly completely funded by him and his organizations. There’s a call to action to contact your representatives if that legislation is being proposed in your state and voice your opposition to letting billionaires control what you can and cannot 3d print.

I miss that glass aesthetic from 2001

The video specifically calls out Creality from a few years ago - and also the Bambu stuff recently.

I thought he made some interesting points about how ultimately this type of legislation is just encouraging 3D printer manufacturers to just abandon open source, something they’ve been trying to do for years.

This video perfectly summed up a lot of my thoughts from this post yesterday talking about a similar law in California.

Came here for this. Doom on a pregnancy test is by far the most impressive!

I searched for a car air filter the other day. I bought a car air filter the other day. I am still receiving ads for car air filters today.

Shit’s dumb as hell.
