Worth noting that all modern failures have been GE models or ancient Westinghouse models. Modern nuclear reactors built by Westinghouse are virtually immune from meltdown, and Westinghouse is the lead player in new builds. Nuclear safety has come miles since the like of Fukushima, and especially 3 Mile Island. I’d feel perfectly safe living near a new Westinghouse nuclear plant.

I actually have a degree in networking lol

Still waiting for a good deal on the OLED model to convince myself to upgrade from the LCD. I’m hoping the holiday sale this year might bring some deals.

Spiderwebs or insects can mess with the sensors, likewise with dust. Try spraying some canned air inside. Or if it’s a few years old, you may want to replace it.

This is kinda creepy

Bring condoms. Many, many condoms.

I got nearly to the end of The Promised Neverland and it just dragged on and on. I couldn’t bring myself to finish it.

I’m surprised to see Nausicaa have a suddenly boost in popularity. It seems to be everywhere lately. I actually read through it in the late 90s but didn’t quite grasp the concepts. I think I’ll give it another shot. I still have my first edition paperbacks.

I’ve run into this a few times. If the culture and benefits are good but we can’t level on pay, I let them know that I can’t accept the offer but I refer them to a colleague with less experience for whom the pay would be appropriate. After over a decade in leadership I’ve had many employees, and I’m always looking out for ways they can step up the ladder. We’ve gotta have each other’s back in this job market.

These jobs are all pushing 6 figures tho. Not sure what kind of job would try to push 36k on a professional position.

I had no idea there was a word for this, I’m the same way.

This was a common April Fools prank back in my day. We would put a startup script on a person’s computer that opened their CD drive at random intervals. Drove them nuts!

Maybe by the 10 year anniversary edition.

They also ditched PST file support.

Running from something that is trying to kill me and being chased. Occasionally it catches me and I start screaming in my sleep. That was a fun one to explain to my boyfriend when he moved in.

Yeah no shit. I was better off 5 years ago when I made half as much money, and I’m sure I’m not the only one.

I played through it in a week while bedbound recovering from a surgery. What a ride. I must have restarted my Xbox a dozen times to get a favorable result in a certain scene with Kim. The only game that came remotely close to these feels was Life is Strange.

For Windows I like 0irc. It’s extremely lightweight and portable. For a browser alternative, KiwilIRC works in a pinch.

thickness could increase from 6.9mm to 7.4mm

Nah I’m good. No way I’m “upgrading” to a thicker phone for only 90 mWh more battery life.

There’s a neat Wordle-like game that I checked out. It was pretty fun. Also there’s Pool equivalent to the old Yahoo Pool game from the 00’s

Hmm. Maybe I should just toss Ubuntu onto it and use a Bluetooth mouse instead of a controller.

I tried libreelec over the weekend but Plex and Netflix both failed to launch. I Googled the error and people advised to manually downgrade the add on versions, and it looked like a troublesome process. Maybe I was doing something wrong?
