My company switched from PagerDuty to SNOW for our paging system and I fucking hate it. God do I hate that rancid shit that was plopped onto my fucking phone. Fuck you, Service Now, for your shitty Agent app and your shitty on-call UI that takes like 50 seconds to load.

Even if the width of your driver doesn't match, a hollow ground tool is still a huge improvement imo. I'm definitely not a fan of slotted screws though. I'd rather have Phillips head provided I have a super grippy Wera screwdriver.
For me, it's outside hex > torx > pozidrive > internal hex > Phillips > JIS > slotted. I've never used a Robertsons screw so I can't form an opinion on them.
Slotted becomes far more tolerable when you have a hollow-ground screwdriver. Flathead screwdrivers should not have the profile of a wedge. They should look like this:
This profile ensures that the force is applied lower in the slot, not right at the very top edge.
I still HATE slotted screws when torque is required or where corrosion can occur, but the hatred of them is also partially due to shitty drivers.
Here's a picture that says all of the above but far more concisely:
God, fuck those dual DVI-D ports. We had a bunch of computers at my first real job that used that crap and the breakout cables were such complete and utter shit. Dell, you had room for two DVI-D ports on your shit ass midtowers!
EDIT: also fuck DVI-A. I've had one miserable encounter with that port and I'm glad it's dead. Either keep shit VGA, use DVI-D, or use the far superior DisplayPort with a locking cable.
God I fucking love DisplayPort locking cables.
pls watchlist me
That's fair though. I mostly made my comment to be irritating/silly. Vim is not for everyone. It took me quite some time to achieve productivity gains, but I was encouraged to keep trying because I was doing a shitload of text editing over SSH. All text editors are valid, provided they're FOSS.
neovim to the rescue.
I'm the opposite. I find LC much more interesting, plus REPO's camera inertia gives me terrible motion sickness, even when the animation speed is reduced and all the other settings are changed. I can't even watch someone stream it, the inertia is so extreme.
I think they're fundamentally different games. The limited day length in LC gives a much more tense vibe, where repo is a bit more laid back and lets you really scour every level. LC also doesn't have the upgrade system present in REPO, meaning doing well on the harder moons is entirely skill based. I prefer skill over upgrades, but I know others don't. I've heard from people who are really into REPO that past level 6 or 8, the difficulty doesn't really increase, and getting too many strength upgrades can trivialize the game.
They both have their merits. You find REPO to be more enjoyable which is totally fair and valid.
As someone who somewhat recently wasted 5 hours debugging a "simple" bash script that Cursor shit out which was exploding k8s nodes—nah, I'll pass. I rewrote the script from scratch in 45 minutes after I figured out what was wrong. You do you, but I don't let LLMs near my software.
I was concerned about what happens when someone accidentally throws away a device with a fresh battery, but this:
The BV100 harnesses energy from the radioactive decay of its nickel-63 core. The two-micron thick core, sandwiched between two 10-micron thick diamond semiconductors
makes me feel a bit better. That really isn't much radioactive material. Still, it'd be good to see some environmental impact studies done in some worst case scenarios.
Huh, sounds like a neat twist on the accelerator driven subcritical reactor. I've no idea what the viability will be, but it also seems like a nice way to generate useful isotopes for nuclear medicine and shit.
EDIT: ah, it's actually a pretty old idea, it predates the accelerator reactor concept by quite a bit.
Yeah, the sound the vacuum makes as you roll it over a bunch of dirt and grit and the spinny boi goes "crunch crunch crunch crunch"
