Jonny 290 posted:i bought a nice power strip with 3 120v's and four USBs, a 32gb flash drive and a couple of u.fl to reverse SMA pigtails. the total was $28.50 or so yeah that's kinda how my support call felt because he went right to "OK I'm issuing a refund [buy it again if you feel like it or don't whatever not our problem anymore]" I was annoyed because I bought it on sale and the sale was over so said gently caress it and stopped by Microcenter on the way home that day and walked out with one - felt good not having to wait

ate all the Oreos posted:it didn't really seem like the purpose was "a box to control the robot from," it seems like the cage is so that a person could be a component of the otherwise robotic system, whisked around the warehouse in a tiny hell-box and when you are commuting from the warehouse floor to the bathroom in the hell box you don’t get paid for that. also you get searched on the way i to the bathroom and don’t pay to wait in line for that.

It still surprises me how people deify the bad electric car man. I wrote one message on discord channel I sit at, it read:"Enron Musk", this started a day long derail by a whole bunch of loyal Muskites. In the end a guy accuses me of getting all my opinions from reddit to which I respond: TheCoach posted:I never go to reddit lol Which I thought is extremely mild but then this explosion happened: Some guy posted:No, Coach, SJW his rear end, quickly! That's a grown rear end educated adult right there, what the hell is wrong with these people.

Oh I get to be the contrarian, ok. This is good as was GDPR. The goal should be destroying Google, Facebook, Twitter, Apple, Amazon etc. and making it impossible for any future tech monopolists to rise. vvv Well the two provisions that people were mad at were specifically aimed at FB and Google and would really only affect a site doing similar volume.

(gdpr is hilarious though.)

reminder that 5% of all US electrical consumption is directly linkable to our lovely copyright laws. it’s illegal for a cable company to make 1 recording of a show and stream it to multiple subscribers, you have to have every cable box recording its own copy separately. which means keeping that drive spinning in each cable box all the time and chugging 35 watts of power 24/7.
