Why would you have a 4090 in the non-gaming one? A 2 or 3 generation old laptop used for $150 can idle Linux far below 120W and run most things as fast as a current gen Windows machine. I have my pc and my work laptop both plugged into a huge monitor with 2 buttons to switch input, and ShareMouse to share the same keyboard and mouse. I preferred Synergy, and then the Barrier fork, and then the Input-Leap fork because they are freeware, but they took away local admin and sudo permissions on the work computer, so I needed an alternative that didn’t need elevated privileges and don’t want a hardware KVM switch.

seth,

Joke’s on you, I get drunk after 3 beers and by the time the third one’s finished I need to go to sleep.

seth,

If you want off-the-shelf, check out Will Prowse’s channel on yt, he explains in great detail the good and bad points of a lot of commercial batteries, inverters, panels, and updates his recommendations as new ones come out. It really depends on what your power needs are, but in general, today’s 48V server rack LiFePO4 batteries are pretty safe and easy to set up, don’t take up much room, can discharge even down to 0% for thousands of cycles, and can charge quickly.

The site I mostly end up back at for detailed technical information, bugs, updates, and DIY support is his forum, diysolarforum.com . There are a number of technical support employees from different solar vendors who have accounts there and occasionally respond to questions about their companies’ products, and there are forum rules to prevent them from marketing there. I’ve seen a few companies raked over the coals in those forums for poor phone or email support/response times, and some have even improved their support in response.

seth,

They also have a shorter lifetime and perhaps more importantly, worse max depth of discharge. Compared to more modern battery chemistries, I suspect you end up paying more with lead acid to get the same amount of available power (just not up front) over a similar battery lifespan.

seth,

I read it as a helpful cue to shore up the small discordant point in the relationship, with saltine goodness and a little brainstorming on ways to improve the crackerage. Couples who cracker together, something something.

seth,

This suggestion is relevant to my interests, and I have all the ingredients on hand. Thank you for your service. 🫡

seth,

I thought it was a Jeopardy clue.

Sacralledgedly sacrilege!

seth,

Probably “night,” which is also properly pronounced with the leading K sound.

That’s a lot or a little or a standard amount of years! And, still will be and is if people read or are reading these comments years from now. Or before now.

seth,

I suspect they allowed notifications from some application. When I installed 11 I did it with the offline/local account login instead of the Microsoft account and skipped activation with all optional “features” disabled, then on first login immediately installed Firefox as default, and then disabled telemetry, tracking, targeted ads, location settings, updates, Defender, crash reporting, phoning home, and all unused devices and services that are turned on by default that I don’t use. It’s a shame those are the defaults but I have no complaints about Windows performance after that.

But I finally got speedy with i3 keyboard shortcuts and my games all work great on Linux (perfunctory “btw I use Arch”), so now the only use I have for Windows is in VirtualBox to run ShareMouse until I can find a linux <-> macos KVM alternative that doesn’t require sudo on macos (rip input-leap).

seth,

That doesn’t sound very fun, it’s a phrase I would find hard to turn down on the off-chance it was meant peacefully and deliciously. :(

He owns a yacht. I’d be interested to hear of a single yacht owner who is a decent person. I’m not sure one exists.

Edit: Thanks for the cool examples of decent people with yachts!

seth,

That’s an excellent exception, and quite interesting. Thanks for the link!

seth,

That’s a good use case. I’d be interested to know more about the idiosyncrasies that come with that lifestyle, like if they go out to sea when a storm is expected, or just weather it out in the harbor.

seth,

Maybe he’s an editor for a newspaper and writes opinion pieces. Definitely a problem, as they seem to be getting replaced by electronic format news!

In many of them but not all, because it’s become convention and has been enshrined in their documentation policies. cGMP just requires that your quality management system has a policy in place that specifies how to document the date, and when exceptions are allowed (for instance, data printouts where YYYY-MM-DD is often the default).

It’s also the reason some labs require you to initial/date every page of printed data, and some only require you to initial/date the first and/or last page. I’ve seen FDA auditors be okay with both, as long as you can justify it with something like: our documentation policy defines the printout as a copy of the original data, and the original data as what’s stored on machine memory with electronic signature; versus: our documentation policy defines the original signed/dated data printout as the original data. In any case, it still has to follow 21 CFR part 11 requirements for electronic records & signatures, where the only date predicate rule example they give is 58.130(e), which itself is broad and only applies to non-clinical lab studies. It’s notable that the date format 21 CFR 11 itself uses is actually Month D, YYYY, with no zero padding on the day.

And if you don’t have IQ/OQ/PQ documentation showing how you locked down and validated the software’s ability to maintain an audit trail you can’t even use electronic records (or signatures).

seth,

That is the table upon which you place the file allocation table. It’s tables all the way down, baby!
