Taking a line from our Australian friends

fuck off, we’re full (of rich cunts)

Not quite the same. But my NAS does files. That’s it.

Everything else is hosted elsewhere.

Not necessarily unsafe, but similar for vans too. With nothing in my RWD vans cargo bay it’s quite easy to break traction. Especially on cold tyres.

If you do this, make really good notes and markings on the polarity of your magnets.

The number of times I have tried this, to end up with two mating parts that repel each other.

Alternatively, just print recesses and glue them in afterwards.

I bet there would be a carve out for anything particularly unsafe, like high voltage equipment or whatever.

Cue: the new Braun toothbrush, now with a 450v battery system for ultimate cleaning power.

Why a second? Your first couldn’t have been any more than 5 years old.

VW can’t use the factories they have.

But do their products phone home?

HA integration is one thing, manufacturer independence is another.

How long until “Yeah, we’re withdrawing HomeAssistant support. You have 30 days to migrate your automations to SwitchBotPlus”

This. But Pandas and Numpy.

Pandas and Numpy and Bash.

I have doubts.

I live in a city where water leaks contribute to something like 40% of supplied potable water ‘consumption’.

Why so much? Because the pipes are old, shit, and underground. it costs a load of money to dig that shit up.

A $5 (or even $500) brass fitting that will last 50+ years is nothing when you’ve spent $1000s doing traffic management, digging up a road, replacing some pipe, and putting it all back again.

What are you going to trust? A $5 lump of solid of brass, or a $0.3 lump of plastic, made by squeezing 0.2mm layers of plastic string on top of each other, using a system whose bonding strength can be drastically affected by ambient and absorbed humidity, temperature, speed, airflow, and a whole load of other variables.

In my experience, it’s a manageable trade off.

You allow for Python “magic” at the cost of type safety. Or you forgo magic for types, and the resiliency that comes with it.

Day to day, you don’t need magic. With good application of hinting you can stop many bugs before they appear.

When you do need magic, you can usually construct it to work within the type system, or at the very least easily ringfence the tainted typeless code the magic introduced.

The sync/async contradiction is much worse to wrangle.

We had the WiiU which had an entire screen in the controller.

Fallout4 had the “pip boy” phone app.

Or, you could package it as a Pex.

• it would just need a compatible Python version
• no additionalional packaging tools need to be installed by your users
• all of the dependencies packaged together once. as they were built and tested against.
• doesn’t need installing. Doesn’t install anything. Just run it.
• doesn’t depend on pypi being accessible.

Hello stranger what ‘ar ya buyin’ what ‘ar ya sellin’

kee-voh rogan woololooooo

Newzbin.

Yay!

Does NZ count as Australia too? Or are we stuck with parallel importers, or picking one up on holiday?

If they know we have savings. They’ll just increase prices again to take them.

It’s America, so the answer is probably “No”.

Do you not have consumer protection laws?

We’ve had digital price tags for decades. But you couldn’t do this in NZ. Stores are obligated to sell you a product at the price they advertise it for AND have a reasonable quantity of units at that price… you couldn’t sell 1 TV for $1.

So these systems would need to track what price you saw it at.

(Caveat: Our stores are still cunts and have been found to overcharge people)

They are also IR controlled. A lot of them have a little window on the front of the unit, and an array of transmitters in the ceiling.
