What a bust.. I had ‘go to war with a different country’ on my card 😢

I hope everyone involved gets TIL tomorrow after the significant high fiving that was had after that. 3.4 million dollars to produce that 3:21 message

    [–] 3 points 2 years ago

    We made it through the night.. it was touch and go.. at one point our frenchie farted and it was so sweet I had to give our eldest dog an extra shot of insulin…

    It was also scattered thunderstorms yesterday but there was a 30 minute window where I thought, alright, let’s do it, let’s go for a w-a-l-k, put my utility belt on, strapped them all to me. 3 minutes in, crack of thunder and torrential rain. We all came home soaked smelling like wet dog. Couldn’t be arsed bathing them, so that’s what my bed smells like now. Mostly my side, turns out without the wifey they are happy to sleep on my side.

    The internet has been out for 3 days now, off and on with the provider troubleshooting. The dishwasher made some close encounter of the third kind beeping noises in the middle of the night, not sure what that’s about. And somehow my work has me dialling into a meeting today on my time off..

    All in all, 2/10, not letting the wife leave the house without us again.

    Spotify Wrapped 2023 - what 0.05% are you in over how many monthly listeners? (aussie.zone)
     

    Curious to see the impact of lemmies and what we freaks are up to.

    For me, I was in the 0.05% of The National (don’t ask lol) which apparently have 5.9M monthly listeners..

    My wife was in 0.05% of Mallrat listeners over 1.8M monthly listeners..

    Not to imply direct correlation between the two numbers of course.

    Any chance I can get help with broadcom BCM4313 wireless adapter (aussie.zone)

    FIXED thanks all, installed Ubuntu which fixed it. Much obliged to all comments :-)

    ——————————————————

    I may give it up, but just playing with an old laptop and looking at linux for the first real time and of course, the old laptop happens to have this network adapter.. 🤦🏻

    (BCM4313 802.11bgn). From the rabbit hole it’s a typical case, laptop tethers to phone fine. Ethernet during Debian 12 install (kde plasma). Detects my wifi but won’t connect (deactivated message).

    In theory it should have been as easy as:

    HTTPS://wiki.debian.org/wl or https://wiki.debian.org/brcm80211

    Has to be the stupidest thing…

    configuration: broadcast = yes driver = brcmsmac driverversion = 6.1.0-13-amd64 firmware = 610.812 ip = 172.20.10.5 latency = 0 link = yes multicast = yes wireless = IEEE 802.11

    Curious on what to do with a desktop I have no use for (aussie.zone)
     

    I’ve been thinking about this old desktop machine under my desk that hasn’t been used in years. I’m thinking the death of the desktop computer is not too far ahead for me. I can’t see myself buying another in my lifetime and my building days ended in the mid 90s. I don’t really have a need for this thing at all, I don’t game, I’m pretty much off the internet already. Ageing out of all of it I suppose.

    My question is, as a bit of a weekend hobby, is it feasible for a bit of an ordinary Joe, middle/a little older aged, to go from a life in MS and never having to run a server or hosting anything, to follow something like this to any meaningful outcome? https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/post/5911320

    I write a bit of vba, do a fair bit of querying to a database someone else maintains for a living. (SQL). Again, never much but basic tables and queries/procedures.

    The desktop currently is: OS: windows 10 home Processor: Intel i7-6700k @ 4GHz Graphics: GTX970 Ram: 16gb

    Kidding myself? Obviously I’m thinking Linux and learning a new OS to some extent would in theory be in the mix.

    damn "next generation" (aussie.zone)
     

    As part of the determined path to enshittification by our government I had to sit through a show and tell today that messaged that the next generation expects digital integration and solutions which is why we are prioritising centralising services and AI integration.

    Apparently you fuckers want to prioritise bots triaging your HR grievances in the next ten years instead of making half these systems half accessible for future generations of public workers..

    Fucking medical images being stored in Med Sync (MS Teams), AI parsing from external vendors.. what the actual fuck. Thank fuck we don’t actually disclose our data breaches..

    End rant.
