Universal basic income, return to FDR era tax rates but factoring in current inflation and closing the loopholes, strong antitrust laws with teeth, tying c suite pay structure to a percentage over the lowest paid worker, and any bonus to top levels based on profit must be equally shared with everyone in the company.

Let’s throw in any fines are calculated based on a person’s income for good measure

You mean the three last remaining pieces of Ma Bell after the children mostly combined back together?

I’m remote so either I trust the user or push commands. I know which I prefer

Between the antics, it was too real

“please call so and so, they’re having issues with their browser”

Call the user, they are out for the day. Leave message to call back

Either never hear back or the issue was not browser related

Either way, tell the original ticket creator to have the person having the issue call us if they want prompt service

That’s how one becomes IT

We have a running leader board for uptime. Servers don’t count. That said, I’ve seen some people who think they actually are turning it off but the machine just enters sleep mode. I only trust

shutdown /r /t 0

This tells me that you know very little about how in control of designs engineering teams are. 99/100 times it’s not up to the engineers on what the specifications or limitations are for any given design.

Typically, sales says they’ll have something that fits whatever crazy need no matter if a perfectly suitable design already exists if they consulted the engineers or shop, typically to get the sale. Engineering is then forced to adjust the design because nothing existing will fit.

Funny enough, it’s not the engineers that are doing it. Left to their own devices without ridiculous constraints like “someone else is doing it this way so we need you to do something that sets us apart” or “you can’t look at what everyone else is doing”, engineers will do it the laziest way they can… By copying what others are doing and essentially making it standard.

I’d expect nothing less, honestly

That’s what’s so sneaky about it. It’s genius, honestly

It’s either a very dedicated imposter or the real deal which would mean Margot Robbie is a giant nerd. I choose the latter option but would not be surprised by the former.

In my area it’s around $3.20

Honestly, get the flux and a hot air station instead, imo. Then again, I prefer being able to have control over where the heat is going instead of reflowing everything at once

Might as well add some picos to scratch that itch. And the rabbit hole that micro controllers bring… next thing you know, your work desk is also a solder station, a hot air station, PCB design, circuit design, and you’ve got two extra diy printers in various state of being built/rebuilt

I don’t have a problem, you have a problem

Depends on how we approach viability, imo

Can we currently see a reason for it with its current abilities/functions? No

But

We can look right at the history of conventional computing to predict a possible timeline for it. Single purpose computational machines that took a lot of power, a lot of room, and were fairly rare. Used for military or research purposes. Multi purpose machines that could run user created calculations and were slightly smaller and efficient. Begins to be used in more academic settings Multipurpose machines capable of being used to aid general office staff, continue to become more compact and efficient Portability becomes possible for select few with a need And so on until we arrive to now where nearly everything and everyone has a computer

I’m more expecting innovations to reduce the need for the super cooling but same

While true, it doesn’t mean we should stop. At worst, we find techniques that improve other areas of technology

Honestly the laws of physics are constantly in flux and there’s no telling what we could create to circumvent the limits we’re currently pushing.

As I mentioned in my example: before the innovations with transistors, there was no way to make a portable computer. It was physically impossible

And digital computers needed tube relays and entire buildings to work. With innovation and time, it’ll become more easily handled
