Amazing. Text message arrived from the hospital asking for feedback about my recent call. "Text STOP if you do not want to receive further texts requesting feedback."

And of course—of course—the sender doesn't accept incoming messages, so all replies just bounce.
🤦‍♂️

@DarkestKale The law says we can't have a pre-ticked box for "subscribe me to your junk mail list". but the law is enforced by Ireland who never saw a datacentre they wouldn't subsidise.

@DarkestKale Funny thing is, I'm supposed to reply with feedback to the same number…

I'll fully embrace the idea of abolishing proprietary software in the public sector as soon as the open source alternatives to Microsoft Office stop chasing after feature parity.
in reply to Alda Vigdís

This also requires an overhaul of public sector procurement and document management norms — and that's really where things should start.

I truly believe that Valve's new #SteamMachine, #SteamController, and #SteamFrame announcements are the biggest PC gaming news of all time. Here's my #breakdown #blog #coverage #article

@xemo128 According to Valve's press release, it'll ship in a bundle with a Steam controller, and also be sold standalone.

Most of my embedded work has been for flying things, and serial devices has been a priority. (gps, radio modem, comms with a host computer, etc.) So for a few years I've gone with the teensy boards. They have lots of uarts, loads of IO pins, fast cpu, lots of ram, and good arduino support. I've never played with an i2c<->uart bridge and didn't know such a thing exists so what do I know? Probably don't take advice from me. 😀 I imagine there needs to be some byte buffering inside the bridge or you'd have to spend a lot of time polling the device. Simple is not always possible, but if there is any way to keep the design simple you'll be a lot happier in the long run. This is one of the fun parts of embedded work ... figuring out how to right size your embedded CPU / board for all the things you need to connect, and not burn too much power or generate too much heat.

I think about that when see videos from the space station, I would think everyone on the planet would be watching the crazy lightshow, but it's not like that 😆
in reply to Kim Possible

Haha, I make a point of booking a weekend camping trip every year during the Perseid Showers, since they're at a predictable time and the only way that I'll watch them is if I'm camping out of town. This year, it rained one night, and it was cloudy the next. Still, I've seen some amazing meteors over the years that I've done this. And, I've seen several other amazing celestial events in my lifetime. I have very little FOMO, even though the best that I got was a vague lilac streak in a grey sky. Too much light pollution one night, and cloudy the next. I saw some lovely aurora last year, though.

A close-up image depicts a container filled with a brownish, fibrous material and a metal grate in the background. The container is partially visible on the left side of the image, with a label that reads "Wood Shaving". The container appears to be made of clear plastic and is densely packed with the wood shavings, which have a slightly curled, stringy texture. The wood shavings take up most of the image and appear to be a mixture of light and dark brown tones. The metal grate behind the container is composed of intersecting bars, creating a grid pattern and a sense of depth to the image.

Any corporation that is considered "too big to fail" and in need of government assistance to continue, should only be eligible for help if the entire top management are fired, blocked from being any type of corporate management ever again and stripped of their golden parachutes.

The main priority of the new management must be to break the company up into smaller ones or to convert it into a government run corporation.

This idea that shitty managers can profit from failing must be eliminated.

in reply to 🇨🇦CrinstamCamp🇨🇦

100% agree.
If a company’s services or products are so vital for a nation that its failure isn’t tolerable, it should become a public good and nationalized (whether it is failing or not).

If they aren’t vital, then they should absolutely be allowed to fail. If the government chooses to bail out the common workers, then fine, but absolutely no rewards for mismanagement.
