  • I think I'll stop my donations. Nothing gets executives' attention like dropping revenue. I read a lot of exec responses to employee dissatisfaction at other big tech companies that basically said 'too bad if a bunch of you are unhappy, the company is doing great so we're right, you can leave.'

  • Green guy does not look thrilled to be next.

  • Ah right, this was BMW too:

    For the past few years, BMW has behaved in a way that seems to treat their buyers as targets for more revenue over everything else. Remember all their subscription bullshit? People hated that, and worked around it, and eventually BMW had to dial that back, because having a subscription for heated seats makes people want to riot.

    So, definitely on the "don't even consider" list.

  • But only if you shared the generated link on some crawlable page? Or did they leak a list of share links so crawlers found them? The latter seems much more serious, and I can't tell which it was from reading a couple articles.

  • What tool to cut them off without damaging surroundings? Just a circular saw?

  • I'm kinda impressed they can all fly the same speed, given drastically different wing shapes.

  • Whereabouts in the southwest? Looks like it could be New Mexico.

  • Yeah, I hand wash non-stick and hand wash cast iron, and the food usually leaves the cast iron cleaner (not to mention the induction only making a humming noise with the non-stick). I've been using cast iron a lot more lately.

  • Cross-posted! (I kinda wish cross-posts shared comment threads.)

    I used vuegraf to publish MQTT from my Emporia Vue, which OpenEVSE can natively consume. I'm running Mosquitto for my MQTT broker.

    I've considered flashing my Vue with ESPHome, which people say would make this even easier, but haven't yet.

    What other details would be useful?

  • So, about $2M over 5 years. I wonder how far that would have gone for better sanitation on the farms.

  • Thanks for the terminology correction!

    Removing the lights, taking the nails out, and untwisting the antenna lowered the SWR but didn't improve the tuning.

    Moving it away from the 4x4 pillar, anywhere from 3" to several feet, fixed the tune.

    I ended up using wood standoffs, since I didn't have plastic, which seems to work fine.

  • THE POLICE PROBLEM @lemmy.world

    DA: Cop covered bodycam to snap nude prisoners on his iPhone—but other cams caught him

  • Many of the most practical uses I've heard for AI are cleaning up messes AI caused.

  • A five-kilometer beam would not illuminate only its paying customer. Scattered light could reach nearby communities, habitats and roads. The exact reach would depend on weather, atmospheric conditions, brightness and how the mirror is aimed. Flashes created while a reflector changes direction could also distract pilots or drivers.

    It's annoying enough when my neighbor's motion sensing porch light keeps turning on. This sounds horrible.

    If someone were to aim some spotlights at the employees' houses all night, which nobody should do, it would make interesting news.

  • Tuned my 40m dipole and now I'm getting lots of spots! SWR was >9 before (resonant frequency around 6.3MHz gah), now 1.2:1. Spots as viewed on wspr.rocks :

    The setup is running WsprryPi on a (old at this point) Pi B+ v2, fairly cobbled together, followed the guide at brokensignal :

    How to tune my ladder-line J-pole?

  • Ah, I've been wondering how to accelerate defunding police.
