I’ve paid anywhere from five bucks to get Madge at the corner shop to smear some vaguely avocado looking goop onto burnt white bread, to twenty bucks for gobs of perfectly ripe avo on artisanal sourdough with lemon myrtle dressing, garnished with some kind of deep fried flower and a bit of grass on top to look pretty.

Aussie reporting in. I can’t recall the last cafe that I went to that did not have avocado on toast, in some form, on the menu.

Do you have one? I’ve seen them used, and I think they’ve got a lot of potential. If I could use handwriting recognition to work with my Workflowy notes and edit markdown shut up and take my money. However a quick look at the Toltec stuff tells me it’s mainly terminals, kernel managers and Doom. Am I missing something?

It would be interesting to see this chart when the UK was included.

I don’t know if I would consider Voyager to be ‘dead’ if it stops transmitting.

If I put a message in a bottle, with a blinky light on it, then throw it into the ocean, the message is still there even if the blinky light goes out.

I’ve got the R3, love it.

What always gets me when I see paper like this, is just how much manpower, engineering time, experimentation, materials science, and just sheer concerted effort went into making paper this fucking thin and useless.

Do you have a source for that? I’ve only ever known integrated graphics to be part of the CPU.

640KB of memory is enough for anybody.

It’s a very good lesson- to the point where I wouldn’t be surprised if the teacher is deliberately putting an arbitrary restriction on the assignment.

If you want to have a career, the people that pay you are going to make you do things that you consider to be ridiculous. That’s work, that’s life. You’ve got three options- Just smile and nod and do it their way, get huffy and tell them that you don’t like their yapping and you’ll do their project your own way, or politely suggest there may be an alternative way, and ask if they are willing to be flexible with some requirements.

Looking at that, I reckon it’s easier just to pay for all the streaming services.

Might be worth checking out Art of the Rail. True to the thread, it’s not developed yet, but is coming soon.

It’s economy based, but I think there was mention of a creative mode.

At this point, it’s easier to just pay for all of the streaming services.

Have a look at the Bananapi options, especially the R3. (Or the R2, it’s a bit more mature)

It’s a very capable single board computer with onboard managed switch, including SFP cages. If you want, you can buy antennas and utilise the wifi 6, or get a dedicated access point.

PFsense, openwrt, et al all have images. I think some people also run the mikrotik OS on it. It’s powerful enough to run as a hypervisor so you can chop and change between all of these if you want.

It gets bonus points for accepting 5G modems for failover.

I think about this in my workplace. I’m not on the IT side of things, but I do have more of an interest than most. And wow, it seems a mess.

I think the problem lies with all these nifty solutions being implemented, and then suddenly it’s someone’s job to tie them all together, which they get halfway through doing before they are called off to do some other task… There doesn’t seem to be an overall architecture, or a coherent model of how information should flow around the business. I’m guessing you come across this a lot? How does that get solved?

Without knowing the setup, it’s all guesswork- But if I had to guess, the program the robot ran through would be a series of movements that results in a box that is this size and this shape in this position being moved perfectly well to this particular spot.

Humans are not that size, that shape, or in that position.

I’ve not worked industrial in Asia, but where I have worked there has been stringent protocols around locking out machinery that has the potential to kill. For someone to enter a hazardous area, they have to remove any potential source of energy (eg, disconnecting power to motors, draining hydraulic pressure, lowering suspended loads, etc) and use a lock that only they have access to to prevent that energy returning. I’m guessing that this incident either did not have that procedure in place, or it was in place but not followed correctly.

No-one is too old to learn Discord, past a certain age you just realise it’s IRC with pictures.

I think the key here is integrating loading into the gameplay. The old Metroid trick of having the player traverse a basic hallway while the game loads the next area in the background is a good, if basic, example.

If you make inverted the default, then it wouldn’t be inverted any more! It would just be normal.
