  • Give me a 10-12 inch laptop and a dock. I had some Dell ones with battery which would last donkey years!

    I do a lot of meetings, all our meeting rooms I’ve set up with remote connections to TV / projector and single USB which connects to meeting room camera etc.

    I’ve been doing this type of job for almost 20 years, laptops are great but you need to play to their strengths and instead of trying to do it all with some 17 inch behemoth, get a good dock setup.



  • As an electronical engineer… Electricity is scary.

    Be mindful of it ALWAYS. The behaviour can be learned. I come from line of electricians and looking back, some times I do wonder if the saying is right… Please don’t test cable by tapping it with the back of your palm, you’re not smarter by not touching it with front making potentially your hand spasm and close on the cable… The smart thing is to NOT touch it at all.










  • I think we underestimate how much the public cares… Reddit/Lemmy tend to be a very big echo chambers and we’ve seen several big events where online discource was completely at odds with reality. It still doesn’t explain how the increase. Because up until today, I believed Europe stopped buying them, but then the figures pedalled are fucking fake. Not sure how your place does it, but here the year of the car is on a reg plate… I see a lot of new teslas, far more than any other EV. I’ve seen couple of Renault 5s! Those are cool. But in the +40k mark? Just teslas. Despite allegedly MG making a Tesla killer a year ago, I’ve yet to see a single one.
