@jamesthebard@social.linux.pizzaWooo, the new computer chair should be delivered day-after-tomorrow and I'm pretty stoked. The old chair is kinda falling apart, but for a cheap chair it did a great job...however, the "new" Aeron should be a significant upgrade. Also, the rollerblade wheels will be moving from the old Office Depot chair to the new one...

@Richard@worklifepsych.socialFirst day back in the office after my break in Tokyo and the contrast couldn't be more extreme! Feel like I need to re-learn my job from scratch. And I'm putting that down to complete and utter disconnection while I was away.

@philip@mastodon.mallegolhansen.com@… Honestly I think I'm like exactly the person you're describing in your example. My day job being what it is, when I hear "host static files" my mind just immediately jumps to like "Yeah, I could do that with S3".
So I'm trying to purposefully step back, take a breath, and take your advice. But I realize I've been so *in* the co…
@brian_gettler@mas.toI spent 4 hours today talking to 2 graduate seminars, 1 in each official language. In both, we had wide-ranging conversations on evidence, methodology, theory, concepts, the literature, the discipline, publicly engaged scholarship, and more. The students were engaged, inquisitive, humane, and brilliant. This is why I wanted this job. A damn good day.
@theodric@social.linux.pizzaIt always starts with talk about millionaires and billionaires and ends with a 36% unrealized gains tax on the handful of assets you bought to try and get a stake in the economy and claw your way out of financial insecurity and maybe be able to retire some day. Meanwhile, the unfathomably rich remain forever unfathomably rich. These people are the allies of capital, and creators of a permanently dependent underclass. They do this to ensure there is always a job for them. If they really cared…
@qurlyjoe@mstdn.socialHer I was, thinking Putin’s abortive war against #Ukraine might be the trigger to WWIII, but it seems to be not working out lately. And now ol’ Donnie boy is trying to pull off a copycat job at #Iran with the same 2 day, I mean 4-5 week, I mean 3-4 month oops multi-year “plan” that’s blowing up (heh) into an…
@mcdanlj@social.makerforums.infoMy friend Brad Bazemore KK4PWJ wanted a totally free — zero cost, 100% open source — comprehensive US Amateur Radio study app. His day job is in testing, and he really knows his stuff.
So he built Open Ham Prep.
I'm super grateful for Hamstudy — it's how I passed all three tests, and I contributed to a bunch of explanations, especially improving ones that were just mn…
@jamesthebard@social.linux.pizzaSo, spent most of the day getting Handbrake compiled with the `svt-av1-psyex` and `svt-av1-essential` forks of the SvtAv1 encoder. However, I did win that battle and both are now available in the `sisyphus-client` containers. Definitely a pain in the ass, but it's nice to have options depending on what you want to use. Also updated the documentation to make sure I don't forget which is which.
I still need to implement some pipelines to build these, but holy crap the Handbrak…
