No. Yes. Kind of.
My home setup is three ProLiant towers in a ProxMox cluster. One box handles all-the-time stuff like OpenWRT, file server, email, backups, and - crucially - Home Assistant and is UPS protected because of how important it’s jobs are. The other two are powered up based on energy costs; Home Assistant turns them on for the cheapest six hours of the day or when energy costs are negative and they perform intensive things like sailing the high seas, preemptive video transcoding, BOINC workloads and such. The other boxes in the photo are also on all the time basically being used as disk enclosures for the file server and they are full of mismatched hard disks that spend virtually all their time asleep. At rest the whole setup pulls about 35-40W.
Is this why you wouldn’t turn off the lights earlier? Because you’re commenting on Lemmy?
Stop being so negative. Remember when BoJo the Clown got stuck on a zip line and for a few blesséd seconds we couldn’t hear him? See, it wasn’t all bad.
Wild idea: Why can’t we use the polling card as the ID?
Wilder idea: Why can’t the polling card also be a mail-in ballot?
Yeah, like the flow has been… uh, I mean…
Nah, fuck it. This metaphor has run it’s course.

Eeehhh… no. I get your point - and agree with the reasoning - but when you advocate that good people have to bite their tongue for fear of bad people misrepresenting them, well, there’s something wrong with that.
“You support someone who threw a soft object at someone? Well supporting an act is the same as doing an act and throwing is the same as stabbing and a soft object is the same as a knife and I am a very smart and nuanced person you would love to spend time around.”

The possibility of Reichform taking Ashfield doesn’t surprise me in the least. I lived there for a while and it’s one of the most beligerent, mean-spirited places I’ve ever known. I’ve lived in deprived places before but I’ve never known a populations so nasty.
Ten pictures of Feddit users reacting to clickbait headlines that will make you say “no, these are all trains. No, I’m complaining as such, I like trains, I just… I thought… No, the headline said something about… reactions, yeah, and ins- actually, hang on, how did you get in here?”
Fedi Punter in Media Lingo Rant Slam: Reaction
Racists who are nourished by their fantasy that Brexit is hurting brown people.
Hey. Heyhey. Heyheyhey. Have you ever noticed that your warships have giant barcodes on them? It’s so that when they return to port they can scan the navy in.
They’re scanned by the sorting equipment. When a stamp is issued with a particular number that number can then be used exactly once, at least in theory.
Without wishing to give too much away, I know a group of people who work at a public transport agency in the UK. They recently had a meeting with Google about “opening up our data” which amounted to Google wanting the agency to sign a contract that would give Google exclusive rights to realtime and scheduling data in perpetuity, then Google would decide if/when/how it would be made public. The agency didn’t say “fuck off”, but something to that effect.
Now, instead, they’re working with a group of students to create a public API with a permissable licence and a framework for other agencies to do the same.
So… maybe do hold your breath? Transit is one of those areas that attracts nerds and nerds love open source.
I worked in schools until last year, so this doesn’t surprise me. A huge number of schools and hospitals were built in the 1960s and 70s during the baby boom, but the were built on the cheap with an expected lifetime of about thirty years. Most of those schools are still standing. There was a program of rebuilding from 2000 to 2012 but it got cancelled. Why spend £10m on a new school building, when you can spend £2m/year patching up the old one?
Step 2: Get clarification from the seller whether the bus is intended for fucking on, or if the bus itself fucks.
I’m stealing that line, thankyou.
