>I think people believe that "on prem" means actually racking the servers in your closet, but you can get datacenter space with fantastic power, cooling, and security almost anywhere these days.

That's because that is what on prem means. What you're describing is colocating.

Something like this maybe? Can use USB C or HDMI+USB A depending

I've had some success searching "lapdock" as well, they're marketed towards using them with smartphones it looks like but can't see why you couldn't plug it into a server or computer as well.

I've had an idea for a cards vs humanity style game but using image generation instead, there's a central card for the round and you add something from your hand and then pick from 5-10 images to submit.

Drop me an email(on my profile) I'd be interested possibly.

Could be literally any tenkeyless mechanical keyboard, hard to tell from whats in the picture.

I recommend a Keychron k8 as a good entry point if you like the format, been using it for a few years as my main one at home with a K6+little folding laptop stand for anytime I'm staying out of the house for any extended length of time.

Garth actually had his own streaming service GhostTunes, which was created solely to only host his own music for streaming until he realized what a dumb idea that was.

I like saying "Soy espalda" to my Spanish speaking friend, bugs the hell out of him. It means "I'm back" but uses the Spanish word for the body part instead of someone's presence.

>on some forums it's possible to decide whether to "appear" as your username, or lurk incognito

This is a feature of every (non-private at least) forum, it's called the logout button :)

Airline margins are like 3%, so explain to your wife it will hurt Delta more to use the halfprice tickets first and then never fly Delta again after that.

I just finished returning 15+ books, I purchased the wheel of time series but every single one had a stupid "now an Amazon prime series" badge on the front cover that was not pictured in the display image and they look awful with it.

Right? Like imagine how many meetings they spent coming up with clever acronyms for their project to poison the ocean and then deciding on which to use.

>I've seen the Uber drivers come in. They always grab like 4 or 5 orders [from the same restaurant], and possibly drive to a 2nd or 3rd restaurant before they start delivering.

Having done Doordash/Ubereats in the past myself that is ABSOUTELY not the norm, god I wish it was that streamlined. Picking up a single order and delivering it straight to the customer is by far and away the most common scenario for the drivers.

They do have stacked orders which are the multiple pickups you're talking about, but I've never had more than 3 orders "stacked" together, and I would say it's more common to have stacked orders from multiple different restaurants rather than multiple orders from the same restaurant. And from the driver point of view stacks suck because almost always only one order in the stack will have a tip, the others will be no-tip orders they couldn't get someone else to deliver by themselves.

Doordash also recently changed how they pay out on these stacked orders to the drivers detriment. It used to be you'd get the base rate for each order in the stack, so 3 orders stacked together would be the base rate x 3 + whatever tips by each customer, but now they pay them out as one big order no matter how many orders are stacked together, so you get a single count of the base rate even if you're delivering two or more orders in a stack, which again are usually only a single order with a tip, so you're effectively delivering the other orders for free.

If anything streaming makes shows like The Wire more accessible and viable as commercial successes. It's hard to keep details in your head when the show airs an episode once a week, and if you're tuning in for the first time you've got no idea what's going on and find something else to watch. Neither of those issues he to exists with streaming, although more and more they're switching back to an episode a week model, but rewatching episodes in between weekly releases is an option now at least.

There's plenty of percussion instruments where pitch isn't a concern at all.

Well to be fair the last sentence is also applicable to my philosophy regarding my job even during the good times :-^)

My integrity in regards to my job goes as far as not doing things that are illegal or straight up immoral, but other than that'll do pretty much whatever my boss wants me to. Something that's annoying but relatively harmless like this I wouldn't even bat an eye at. It's a pretty rough job market out there at the moment and I'm not looking to make any waves or get on anybody's radar by being difficult.

The prep is even easier these days, my last colonoscopy earlier this year it was a few pills and then just drinking a lot of normal water.

It says it runs in Electron so should be pretty trivial to port it to the web no?

A corporation that owns hundreds of homes, and I can say with a completely straight face that the world would probably be better off without them.

You're right, the snark was unnecessary, but to be 100% honest no I don't feel that bad that the people that have been willfully participating in and profiting off a system that only works by screwing other people over may lose some money when the people getting screwed over have had enough and try to change things.

Just by living in the US and participating in our modern society here I am myself in a similar situation, and I'm not exactly a political activist dedicating my life to changing the status quo, but if and when the people we're exploiting to fund our current lifestyle start fighting for a better life I'm not gonna be telling them that they need to stop and think about the effect their demands would have on our lives.

If we want to fix the situation someone is eventually going to end up with the short end of the stick. I don't think it's entirely unfair that the people that have benefited for decades from the current situation end up with said short end.

I've been renting for the last 10 years, the house I'm in now is estimated to be worth $300,000. My rent payment is 2500.

2500 x 10 x 12 = coincidentally, $300,000 exactly, that I'll never see again.

So someone who owns an equivalent home for the same amount of time, if it were to suddenly have the value plummet to $0, would still come out ahead of me because they'd only be losing the equity they've put into their home. And that's still not a fair comparison, because there's almost no way it'd become utterly worthless, so they'd still be left with something to show for it even if it loses a significant percentage of its value.

Housing is a basic human need for survival, to be 100% honest I don't feel that bad that the people that have been willfully participating in a system that only works by screwing other people over may lose some money when the people getting screwed over have had enough and try to change things.

You're right my apologies, the snark was unnecessary. Will keep that in mind if I choose to continue discussing in this thread.

Oh no, the absolute horror. Homeowners will end up having actually spent money to have somewhere to live instead of making more money just by virtue of owning a home.

Plenty of people are already living that reality, it's called renting.

Did you read the article you posted?

-ChatGPT initially gives the same diagnosis the vets did, Babesiosis

-It notes that Babesiosis may have either been a misdiagnosis or there may be a secondary condition/infection causing the remaining symptoms after the Babesiosis treatment didn't resolve all of them

-It suggests such a hypothetical secondary condition could be IMHA, which the article notes is an extremely common complication of Babesiosis with this specific dog breed

-A quick Google search brings up a fair amount of literature about the association between Babesiosis and IMHA

So in fact this is the opposite of a never before seen situation, ChatGPT was just regurgitating common comorbidities of Babesiosis and the vets in question are terrible at their job.

Pillow under my knees and a thin one to hold on my chest and fold my arms on top of helped me get used to sleeping on my back.

What you've quoted is just saying they have found that the policies and procedures the FBI has on the books that it's agents are supposed to be following meet the requirements that have bee imposed on them. The problem is that FBI employees aren't adhering to those policies and procedures, and so far there has been little to no consequences is my understanding.

So would you expect that kind of attitude from your doctor and complain if you don't get it? Your lawyer? A police officer pulling you over? A judge? Your boss? Don't think so. So yes, with that (which is admittedly an assumption) in mind I don't think it's any kind of jump to say you think service industry workers are beneath you.

Verbal abuse and general surliness isn't the only alternative to the false sincerity and you immediately jumping to the opposite end of the spectrum is frankly just arguing in bad faith. It can just be a neutral interaction, you can require your employees to have have common courtesy and be polite without being completely servile and obsequious.
