tbf, all their apps are called copilot now

Safe driving is conscious, fluid driving. If safe driving were just slow driving, we’d best all be going 30km/h everywhere.

Yep. 95% of firefighters in Germany are volunteers, so regular training is necessary, except for bigger cities there are no “professionals” that turn up if things get out of hand. There’s just people with normal jobs that drop everything when the pager goes off and we provide everything from cutting people out of cars to containing chemical spills and fighting forest fires.

Got to play with the water thrower on a TLF in less than ideal weather conditions. Got a nice picture out of it though and hot soup later, so all was fine.

Have you ever held a dying person? You know when it’s over.

Plus A/T tires with no bite on ice. Those huge blocky chunks of rubber may be good in mud, on ice you need lamella.

Done.

I’ve stopped doing that and just put my own laptop on the desk besides the work laptop the second they implemented a new privacy agreement that forbade personal data on work devices. So far no one has said anything.

After a few years of homeownership you usually have everything for stuff around the house in the tool room.

I’m just noticing that having a tool room sounds unusual, seeing it written down.

Well, it IS a not very reasonable take that seems to be grounded in a certain unwillingness to deal with new and unknown yet things. How do I solve address overlap in RFC1918 and various VPNs reliably without IPv6? This starts to become a problem when I think about my self hosted music server accessed through a wireguard tunnel and I’m at a friend’s house. Not too outlandish problem for the crowd around here, I’d guess.

That’s because the average IT auditor is a bunch of if then statements wrapped in human skin.

Yep. I archive channels I like locally.

Yes. You explain it as if what I have described were an intellectual problem. It is not, so the support you tried is not helpful in my case. But this is public, so, maybe for someone else.

I can’t cook. That doesn’t mean that I am not able to when given time and resources and a receipe, that means that the amount of things I can fight through in a day is limited and I need to use that budget wisely, earning money, caring for my dog and seeing to it that my house and garden don’t fall apart.

That means, I can’t cook, even when it looks like I’m just sitting there, staring into the blue. “You just have to…”, no, you just have to, and the what you have to is “shut up” and “stop using yourself as a reference for everything”.

I didn’t think there was a confusion about that until now. Actually I still don’t think so. Explain.

My motto while I was living in an urban area. I found that I could ride my bike right up to in front of my office window after cutting a little brush on the building corner and from that day on I’d do that, knock on the window and climb right into my office chair from my bike saddle if a coworker was already there. Most satisfying parking situation in my professional life so far.

The Seamstresses’ Guild of Ankh Morpork does not look favorably upon your judgement of their recent endeavors into digitalization and working from home.

Then they set their desk on fire and go on strike for the rest of the day.

Ah, that explains why I was cast into this existence last week after chilling in the void for eons, which I was actually pretty fine with, but here we are now, toast crumbs, income tax and all that. Thanks I guess.
