BEAT THAT PETAR MOLINEXU!
If you’re already working 40 hours a week, focusing on stuff out of hours is going to be hard. I know this all too well!
I was thinking more along the lines of ‘nightshift’. 😀
There are a lot of jobs that require out of hours support, specifically those that aren’t tied to business hours. In tech at least, many of the sites and services you use are built off the backs of software engineers that are paged at 5am because latency is a little higher than normal.
There is a very easy solution to this dilemma: pay someone to stand ready at off-hours.
Are there really people who don’t know where the clitoris is, or is that just a meme?
Almost 16 years, still nope. Not going to happen.
They are still using Reddit, so one has to wonder if they have not abandoned sanity and intellect a long time ago.
Some regulation changed, and that is great. It is now much easier than before to put a photo voltaic installation on your roof that has a peak energy production above 10 kWp. That used to be the magic barrier beyond which things would get drastically more complicated, beaurocracy wise. Tax hell, basically. So that is gone now, and my SO and me installed a 25 kWp installation on our roof because of it. But let me tell you: it took six month just to get it connected to the net. The local energy net provider did not manage to swap our meter for a two-way meter for six months. We were able to power our home with it, but we could not provide any power to the net. Just because that company was too stupid to click a button somewhere to send instructions to another company to swap that energy meter. That other company was here on an unrelated job a month after our PV installation was done, and I asked them about it. They told me they could theoretically do it right away, but they had no order to do it, so they couldn’t.
On the other hand, very small installations (“balcony power stations”) are popping up everywhere, the kind that are 600-800 Watts and plug right into your power outlet. In theory, when installing them, you should fill out a form to give your power provider the chance to swap your meter so it doesn’t run backwards when you’re not using all the power, but nobody I know ever does that. I am guessing that that also has quite a bit of effect on our power mix.
This says otherwise. While coal (hard coal+lignite) use had been slightly elevated in 2022, it is already below the level of 2019 now. Natural gas use is mostly for household heating, which is usually non-electric in older houses in Germany, so there is some weather related fluctuation there. There are some gas powered electricity plants for emergency use, but they are only fired if there is no other way.
Master of the wit and the repartee.
His command of space directives is uncanny.
How come he’s such a genius?
Don’t ask me!
Ask Arnold, Arnold, Arnold Rimmer.
He’s also a fantastic swimmer.
And if you play your cards right
Then he just might come round for dinner.
Because it is bullshit. HR have no clue how to find good candidates, and whoever hired them to get a new hire had no idea what the new hire should be able to do and so just gave HR a few buzzwords to work with. But even if they had been given a good job description, they are basically muppets.
The only way this could get any worse would be if the clients were natively speaking another language (one that you do not understand), would fall back to that five minutes into argueing among themselves, and after another five minutes, you hear your own name mentioned.
Will it shut down after the seven years, telling you that the software running on the TV is “no longer supported”?
English letters? Really? So basically no a-z, only Æ, Þ, Ƿ, Ð?
To my understanding, it has always only been usable with a subscription, so…
How about implanting the sun with Elon Skum?
Is this like an… idiot tax?
Are they wrong though? These are the geniuses that buy Trump-branded bibles they’ll never read.
As now embedded serverside ads are a pain to deal with. I don’t know if any adblock currently can surpass those.
But next step will be youtube just putting a fence up and not letting you watch content unless you are registered, and thus banning any suspicious activity, or even just becoming a paid service
Honestly, I have not seen youtube ads in ages. Every now and then, when I have taken sufficient leave of my senses after having imbibed, I may attempt to view something on youtube using a device without an ad blocker, and then I am quickly and sharply reminded of what a dumpster fire that is. But on PC - no sir or madam, no ads at all, thank you very much.
Personally, I think the much bigger problem of sites like youtube and tiktok are the unforgivably horrible “recommendations”. You search for something innocent or even just open the website, and you are recommended random closetted or open fascism, misogynie, racism, or other garbage.
I known’nt what you mean.
I would guess that is because a lot of these are just made up. For example, Germany does not have a “national flower”.
