Jeezus christ, kid, I just said that the guy with his attitude and the right target group made EVs cool and therefore created the market back in the 10s. Which enabled the beginning of the EV revolution as we see it today. You make it a personal attack on me. Please be a lot calmer and gentler with other humans in the future.

That sounds very black and white. With age I've come to the conclusion that black and white thinking while very satisfying has never led to anything good in my life. I avoid it where possible. It's a bit harder and it can bring me into situations where I don't feel the righteous vigor of being on the correct side, but I find that I've ruined more with that vigor than what I've fixed taking a detail oriented approach.

For home? Yes. For professional use where you have to deploy and support tens to hundreds of desktops? Immutable + a proper build tool chain is the best thing since sliced bread. And when you already have that, a copy of that for home makes it good for home use too.

Honestly: Being a massive, public spokesperson for electric vehicles that had a huge following with the well-off nerds brought us where we are today with electric cars, I'm still convinced about that. But yeah, that's about the only thing I can think of.

Ja äh, lass mer's, oder?

Change shop, my man. My work desktop consists of a tiling wm, usually has one or two instances of my favourite IDE running, of course has various shells open and the only time I've got LibreOffice Writer open is when I'm crafting a report for a customer. Although a few of our young developers are currently building a tool chain that would make some sort of enhanced markdown the default format for human readable stuff and that would fit a lot better into our "a project is managed in gitlab" workflow.

I am not a developer, mind you, I am just creating architectural concepts and I implement them. How do you even do that without automation, automated testing, redeployability and all of that? Hell, even when a project requires talking to bare metal, the first thing I'll think about is "how do we get out virtualization layer onto that automatically within the constraints of the customer's network?".

Naiv wie ich bin würde ich einen direkt mit der Maschine verbundenen PE für völlig hinreichend halten.

Wenn das Ding einfach als Widerstand funktioniert der mit der Maschine in Reihe geschaltet wird, dann soll's wohl warm werden, irgendwo muss die Energie ja nun hin.

Die Dinger gibt's doch mittlerweile als Phasenanschnittdimmer mit wesentlich weniger Verlusten für nen Zwanni, da würde ich an dem alten Teil nicht rumfuckeln.

Freu dich und halte den Zustand in Ehren. Und sei lieb zu den Leuten die ihn herstellen 😉

Seeing that all votes and post are public - I assume that some three letter agency is already running one or more instances and is feeding the user behavior into a tool like Palantir.

So, trouble? No. Are you likely associated with your opinion on some sort of database? Yes, unless you keep immaculate opsec.

...wat? In what kind of shop are you working?
