Honestly, not really. I’m just kind of at a point in my life where it’s something I’m thinking about looking into, and an out-of-the-box option like this would be really handy.

I’d probably buy it.

Hell yeah! I became an electrician and now I work for myself. Which, so far, absolutely rocks. It turns out I didn’t hate working, I hated having bosses lol

It’s a great path if you’re up for it, to anyone reading

And that’s why I went to trade school at age 30. “I gotta get out of these fuckin places.”

It was a good move

Where’s the infuriating part? All I see is a corny comic book cover

I am WAY ootl on shopping for PCs and hardware, all the sites I used last time i did anything (god, around like 2008?) are quite defunct. Anywhere you’d recommend looking for a desktop like you’re talking about? I’d love to get my home on a selfhosted network.

I mean yeah, but specifically I’d like something built for Linux that’s good for just basic spreadsheet stuff. I’m an electrician so I mostly just need to track jobs and accounts.

I’m looking forward to it!

Side note: anyone got recommendations for business software? I’ve started browsing the FOSS community here for ideas but I’m not sure what QuickBooks alternatives exist

I’m thinking about a Linux laptop with FOSS software for my business actually, Lemmy’s relentless horde of pro-Linux propaganda has won me over

(OK I’ve always liked FOSS I’ve just never taken the jump)

Idk, are you using arch? There seems to be a correlation from what I’ve gathered from Lemmy

You’ll also get knee-socks so win/win

Lwaxana is a treat every single time she’s on screen. And sometimes when she isn’t.

Every time she’s in an episode it’s a treat.

Exactly, sure you could have relays or Automatic Transfer Switches like we use from generators. But if you’re just slamming more power at stuff than it’s meant to use, where’s your overcurrent protection?

Basic overcurrent protection? In my sci-fi?

Next you’re gonna tell me you can’t just “re-route power” by pressing buttons on a screen and not, you know, actually unhooking any wires!

I should really try this game again. I’m just so bad at it :(

Every single person who’s died of hunger

:bass riff intensifies:

Oh I’ve seen it before, I just wasn’t up for it at that moment lol.

I’ve been watching it through for the first time, it’s great. Into S4 now.

Not even gonna lie though, I skipped Home. I knew what I was in for and I just had a kid, I wasn’t up for that lol
