Yeah. I work for a company that builds the electrical systems for cooling Amazon’s AWS servers in data centers and we are trying to keep up with orders as best we can. They just want more more more, so much that we’re storing them in another warehouse because we don’t have the room here.

They’re projecting orders all the way into 2035 currently.

Ahh my context is all related to industrial electrical systems. It gets really fun when UL and NFPA 79 start to conflict with each other.

Pretty wild seeing an ad for UL out in the wild in these comments, you an electrician?

I got my MTR in UL 508A a couple years ago

I played the HD version on a PS3 emulator and honestly didn’t notice that much of a difference from the PS2 game with upscaled resolution.

I think the point of this post, which I agree with, is that the PS2 version that is available via emulators or on the PS store currently is good enough as it is and the series doesn’t need revived at all.

Sort of in the same vein is that I tried playing MGS1 twin snakes which is the gamecube remake of the PS1 game. Maybe it’s nostalgia of the original being my favorite game of all time, but it just didn’t hit the same for me as the original. It’s just about the closest thing to what a modern “remake” would look like, except I guess with the graphics of how the new remastered snake eater game looks instead of the GC graphics.

It sucks that people might skip timeless classics like these because they’re not remastered with updated graphics.

Working with your hands and tools. It’s amazing how far it can take you and how much money you can make and/or save by DIY’ing things around your home with some basic skills. Like there are people that will pay $100 for something easy like mounting a TV when it’s a few minutes of finding studs and screwing down the bracket.

Then as things progress and you get more comfortable, you can start helping friends and doing side work. I’ve been doing industrial electrical for 10 years now, I’m gonna be re-wiring a whole house from the ground up in July

There are a ton of great things in this, wow

Pittsburgh PA

Even if I could afford one, or want one, which I don’t for many reasons, the vehicle is so ginormous that it would be the biggest pain in the ass in the world to drive around my city. Parallel parking? Forget it. Narrow side streets that are the width of a car, but somehow you need to let someone come down directly towards you and it’s not a one way? Bumpy roads full of potholes or worn down to the original brick roads, with the vehicle that’s tires wear out faster than any other due to the sheer weight?

I think you get the idea

I’ve woken up at 5 or 6 am every day for about 12 years at this point.

Factory life I guess. Weekends included

Honestly I have the best and healthiest sleep schedule of anyone I know

There was a new fridge when I bought my house. Basic ass nothing fancy Frigidaire. No ice machine. I love it.

When I redo my kitchen this year, I’m buying a countertop ice making machine. I’ve heard too many horror stories about the ones in fridges.

Right now I’m still truckin with the ice trays. Not enough room in the kitchen currently

Probably busbar running at 6 to 10,000 amps. DC power.

Factorio, hands down

600 hours and counting. The space age expansion basically quadrupled the content, and is the first time I’ve played the game 100% vanilla with no mods in probably 10 years. Great times.

This may be anecdotal but I visited Christchurch NZ last year and walked around the whole city. I don’t believe I saw a single person begging / sleeping on the street.

Compared to my small rust belt city in the US where there’s homeless at every busy intersection begging and pop-up tent settlements that will frequently be destroyed by cops. Bigger cities and/or the West Coast ones like Portland have way more of this type of thing.

Egg noodles butter and worcestershire sauce

I’ve dabbled with slsk.

Is there any option to run it in docker on something like a NAS?

What?

No like there was a lead pipe from the early 1900s from the street up through the woods to my house.

The city and utility company replaced it with a copper one at no cost. It’s a big initiative in our city right now to replace all the old lead water lines by 2027

The city just replaced my lead water lines.

We’ve been drinking straight out of the tap for about 5 years.

No change in my temperament, anger, mood I guess.

I guess our shop didn’t ban smoking indoors until around 2009.
