Nobody said Elon is smart.

Are you denying that Donald is encouraging fossil fuel usage and by extension worsening climate change? Are you denying that Elon chose to financially support the candidate that would worsen fossil fuel usage?

Hate to spoil the anti cybertruck band wagon here, but apparently the owner discovered that they were doing something wrong. I think they seated the charger incorrectly, which allowed it to charge for a bit, but then the safety mechanism from the truck turns off the charging. These trucks and other electric vehicles can charge at this temperature range, but they will have reduced range.

Elon is still a Nazi, and these trucks look horrendous.

whats does Lutris offer? I'm not very familiar with it.

Totally understand, definitely something I would like as well.

How does this work exactly? My familiarity with Unions is that either they're created inside an existing company, or a union gets people to unionize at a company. The idea with both of this situations is that all the workers leaving would be detrimental for the company so the company has to give into the Union Demands to some extent.

With my unfamiliarity with with this video game union, it seems they've just created one, but wouldn't that mean that a company has to decide to hire workers from this union? My understanding with the game industry is there's thousands of experienced people that will work for cheap, so I feel most game companies will have options vs union workers.

Also, I hope they publish the games they are involved in so i can support them.

FYI, not exactlyu the same, but I've been using Heroic game launcher to play Linux. If you're like me, you probably thought only steam games or linux native games would work on Linux, but I've been playing Kotor 2 on Ubuntu with the heroic launcher, mods included.

I'll be honest, I have no idea what your comment is trying to say. Could you please rewrite this so I can understand it?

Even if 1k burned unnecessarily, it's No where near as impactful to the environment as the bad decision making a country with a GDP of 27 trillion USD will be making. We passed the largest bill to deal with climate change (Inflation Reduction act) the world has ever seen and now that may all get thrown away because of Donald, financially backed and influenced by the CEO of Tesla. Not only will Donald not fight to combat climate change, his is actively encouraging it by implementing policies that encourage fossil fuel use.

The answer, for future readers, is that applying a sticker overwrites any existing sticker.

ridiculous statement, you can hate Elon and Tesla, while caring about climate change. You may not be aware there are other electric vehicles not associated with Nazis. Right now, Elon is pushing for changes that increase climate change by supporting the Trump administration. Dealing any kind of social and monetary blow to Elon and his companies would hopefully discourage him from continuing his actions.

I called my senators. I was only able to leave a voicemail mail, so I did.

 

I'm glad this was passed. Only worry I have is that the the corporations will have the money to take a hit in California. Keep the amount of money they siphon from CA high, translating to higher costs to the CA businesses and, despite the fact that more of their businesses will struggle, use that as evidence that this law should be repealed.

 

I'm doing interviews, and I wanted to get an idea of what other people are doing. Say a position offers a pay range between 50-65k. In my interview with HR (first interview), should I try to provide a more narrow range? for instance, " Based on my skills and experience, I'd expect a range between 56-60k" Or should I just tell them the range offered is good for me and let them actually provide an offer? This is of course assumes the entire range is acceptable to me. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

 

Article is very interesting and talks about the mix of goals in regards to the protests, and how speech negatively and positively helps accomplish those goals.

 

A bigger “tax break” (in the form of allowing these businesses to actually deduct expenses like other legitimate businesses) for these dispensaries should mean cheaper products, less struggling businesses and also less black market marijuana.

22 minutes long, but still very interesting.

 

I feel like hidden rooms aren't very transparently shown in the game. Currently there are usually 2-3 hidden rooms in each area, with an additional hidden room for every floor that has "many secrets". This is all totally fine, except that its sort of hard to identify them, even as someone that's rather familiar with what they are. By identify, I don't mean to search for them, but to actually identify whether a room is a hidden room or not.

My suggestion would be that all hidden rooms share some kind of identifier. some suggestions would be:

  • uniquely colored door that, even if burned, has a different color so you'll always know that was an entrance to a hidden room

  • Uniquely colored flooring

  • Uniquely colored walls

  • Indications in the logs when you step into an area or floor ("you have found 1 of 2 or 3 hidden rooms in this area" "There is one discovered hidden room on this floor")

Hidden rooms can affect your rankings score so allows for easier ways to track that would be welcomed.

What are your opinions?

I'm currently a Technical account manager at a company and I'm uncertain where to go from here. I currently make 150k, with some of my more experienced coworkers making 200k. I'd like to apply to other companies to make more money.

But I'm wondering, is staying in this sort of role good long term?

Some additional information on what I do, since I understand this role varies company by company:

We interact a lot with clients post sales making technical recommendations on the products of ours to use.

We sometimes help direct clients with integration, or do it ourselves which involves using our REST API.

We also sometimes have to configure and customize our web application front end, which involves making changes to its HTML, CSS, and JavaScript.

We would sometimes also need to investigate and deploy bug fixes for production.

Now, looking at potential jobs, I'm seeing Technical Account manager, Solutions Engineer, and customer engineer roles that seem really similar to what I'm doing now, paying about 150k average, maybe even a bit more. I'm uncertain what kind of progression there is though.

On the other hand, as a software engineer (which,despite having a degree in CS, i have no work experience doing, other than what I'm doing now), it feels like there's an, obvious to me, career progression. The issue is that it appears that the average pay for what I think I could work as (junior/entry level software engineer) is closer to 100 - 120k.

Should I keep trying to stay in my current job type? What sort of new positions should I aim for to make more money?

Should I bite the bullet and go into software engineering, losing some short term income in exchange for a better career path with better pay in the future? Should I be applying for entry level positions? or staff/intermediate level Software engineering roles?

any advice is appreciated!

locking procedure check (sh.itjust.works)
 

I just recently got into using a bike for commuting and I was wondering if this is a good way to secure my bike? I know, previously, people would recommend only needing to lock the back tire to a solid object, but I’ve seen videos of people easily cutting the back tire, breaking it and taking the frame/front tire. My method of locking is sort of similar, except I do lock around the splash guard. If this isn’t very secure, I’d have to get a longer ulock or chain, because there doesn’t appear to be an easy way for me to lock around the back tire, frame and solid object with my current ulock. Any suggestions are appreciated.
