I love functional programming and hate object oriented. It’s just how my brain thinks, I can and regularly do OOP, but I have to force myself to do it. Why not python? You can do BEAM in python, it’s pretty easy to learn, and it’s incredibly versatile, and you can program functionally in it too.
Wow, all that with an esp32. No fancy hardware needed.
I have one where I put a door/window sensor on a window and anytime that window is opened it turns off the HVAC, then when closed, turns it back on.
I tried once to setup a notification to open the windows if the weather was nice, but I’d never gotten to work quite like I wanted, and so I turned it off.
What happens if my distro is never mentioned in these run-downs? What does that say about me?
I distinctly remember mario bros on the nes. There was like a 1/3second latency between pressing the button and mario jumping. You had to time your jumps (especially when running) further back than you’d expect to compensate. You just kinda got used to it after a while.
This is the answer here. If OP has any techy friends they should tell them. I have a dozen HDDs and SSDs and RAM of varying sizes lying around. Most of them even work.
I tend to canabalize parts as computers pass through my hands. I frequently upgrade family member’s laptops for them. They buy the parts and I provide the labor of cloning windows and putting in the parts. Often the brand new (but smaller) ram/ssd are unwanted.
Bonus, she’ll think of you and visit you way more often than if you were shoved in a back corner of a cemetary.
Everyone ends up going back to windows for the better user experience anyway. Which is why Linux is an acronym for Linux Is Not UX (user experience).
Thanks, I’ll check it out.
I’ve searched far and wide, and there are only a scant few books that do the classic wizard’s tower. POV of the master wizard that is retiring to do research and really dig into the limits of magic. Maybe pick up the hero of the world as his apprentice, but not from his pov at all. The wizard sees the aftermath of his misadventures and offers words of wisdom and the occasional spell he might be ready for. Sure there’s a romantic intrest with his other apprentice, but he ignores that too. They do a fine job at cleaning, cooking, and local monster removal.
He occasionally gets together with other retired wizards and they chew the fat and complain about their apprentices and how often they end up in the news or jail.
Comedy/ slice of life fantasy. No high stakes, if an apprentice brings back a problem it’s big in their eyes, but fixed with a wave of his hand, and a warning. Or they’re taught a lesson and have to fix it themselves by researching before the wizard has to intervene, because then it’s chamberpot duty with no magic cleaning for a month.
You can shop around for crematoriums near you. Most of them in the US pick up the body as part of their fee. $300-800 to cremate a body. They mail you the ashes in a plastic bag. Some will offer urns, but that’s an extra charge you can skip. Most states don’t consider burying ashes the same as burying a body. Different laws. You can prepay, and have a card in your wallet with the company’s info on it in case someone stumbles upon your body.
My wife and I have spoken about what we want done. My plan for her is to cremate her, then go to a local nursery and find a nice hearty, long living, low-maintenance flowering tree she would have liked and plant her and the tree in my back yard.
Companies like Viasat with GEO sattelites have the advantage of one mololithic sattelite with massive coverage. They have a ton of little antennas on each sattelite that they can adjust as demand changes. Need more coverage in an area due to demand? They can task an antenna not doing anything over there.
Latency is a B though. Minimum 500ms each way. Which is minimum 1sec round trip just physics not actual. What’s interesting is the layperson (non online gamer) doesn’t notice much. It’s not abnormal for a rando website to take a few seconds to load on my wifi. Or for a netflix stream to take a few seconds before it starts buffering. The biggest problem a company like viasat has is old tech in the sky. They can’t handle the load of everyone watching netflix. So, they have to data cap everyone. It’ll be interesting to see if their new sattelites later this year fix that or if they keep the caps on.
The tech behind starlink is good. LEO satellites play a purpose. Upsides are they have less latency than GEO satellites. Speeds are the same though.
Downside is you have to deploy them evenly as a constellation or else you get service inturruption. Which means if you look at any population map 90% of your constellation is going to be underutilized, and the other 10% is going to be full.
The real target audience should be mobile broadband. Airplanes, ships, RVs, cars, phones, etc.
But what do you do in the meantime? Fill in the unutilized constillation with rural residential. You can’t compete with fiber tech, so you sue the govt for free money.
Go OLED if you can, grab a 1tb sdcard for storage expansion. Watch a few people tweak the settings of a game and the graphics card. You can force lower settings and make a game have higher fps and much longer battery life and not really see a loss in graphics due to the smaller screen. Also watch a few tutorials on tweaking steam controller settings. So you can pick up some rando game that’s built for kb/m and make it work nice with a controller. Especially gyro, FPS games are more fun being able to gyro the crosshairs a little for micro movements like targeting the head.
Also once you get it, play Aperature Desk Job. It’s free, and is a nice 30min tutorial of your deck.
It’s a modern thing. Basically it’s all just commercialization. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gendered_associations_of_pink_and_blue

On top of that, we’ve found that basically everything is redshifting as the universe expands. So to see a blueshifting galaxy would mean something potentially unnatural.
