Solar was worth it in the end. It's 95 here today, my AC at home is running and I'm still pushing power back to the grid.

I am once again asking you to consider that an entire information ecosystem established as the primary form of communication over a hundred years and allegedly regulated by the federal government was destroyed by scammers virtually overnight and we just don’t, like, ever talk about it

I am involved in small local government who is currently working to bring speed cameras into it's area and they outright admitted at the start that it's just to boost the budget. it turned into a whole pissing match of the cops not wanting to do the paperwork on the infractions and pushing it off..

I've been an MSP admin for over 10 years at this point and I have this conversation with every single one of my clients. "any msp that tells you they will be as responsive as in house IT is lying. they just are." also 98% of MSP's have no fucking clue what they are doing. the amount I walk into

Classic "sys admin" role is not respected anymore, imo. They all want someone who's a sysadmin and a programmer and if you can't program you're not worth shit for some reason. I hate it.

1989's Macintosh SE/30L is remembered as one of Apple's biggest flops. MacWorld criticised its rotated L display as "...bringing all of the issues and none of the benefits of a true L display", while MacWeek called it "Some kind of deranged P display nobody asked for".

I wanted to commission another piece from this artist, since I really loved the art they did a couple years ago, and they absolutely hit it out of the park again!!

You can get kind of racy with some built in tools but usually custom posing.
