I heard that attending one of her parties changes you profoundly, like, down to your marrow.

The author seems to be implying that they'd get their tongue stuck in Perlica's pit creases, if you know what I mean.

Oh, this at least gives some perspective into the dislike for gingers.

A well organized drawer or cabinet should still be O(1). It takes at least 2 more steps, assuming you don't leave them open all the time, but the number of operations doesn't change depending on the number of clothing items you need to retrieve.

A pile of clothes is faster, but only for a small number of items. As the number of articles pile up, they hide older items and need to be pushed side before the intended article can be found and then retrieved. This is now O(N), and less efficient than just storing things in the proper place...

This is the kind of corporate bullshit that I pray the EU will pounce on and skin them alive for.

This needs to be met with a fine that is a % of global revenue. It's the only language they understand.

I mean, they'll have to get in line.

And we conquer that fear daily.

Many could be tempted to attribute that to our bravery, our grit, our resolve.

They'd be overlooking the simple explanation that some of us fear hunger and cold slightly more than we do the grueling and backbreaking 9-to-howlongisitreallyfuckineedtosleep hours.

Some nostalgia of those times when people had the skills and the means to work on the things they own. Nowadays it feels like it doesn't matter that you paid full price for your car, or even your tractor for that matter, they're finding ways of keeping their paws on everything. I haven't traded in my diesel van because of this, though it's getting heavy with the miles on it...

In any case, not that those times were necessarily better, sounds like people just got by, and thats all too familiar.

I thought it was calling someone childish and immature, like, "come back when your balls drop", but well, gender neutral.

w my boys, good job showing that men don't turn to slobbering buffoons at the sight of breasts, no matter how shapely. If they do it's always by choice, and unless you're roleplaying something kinky, it's always the wrong one.

I'm probably just really tired, but why would people expect that? Posting cool stuff is a huge service that I'm really grateful for, I wouldn't have such an amazing feed without all of you guys who are active posters, if anything you should be offered uh... services, if so desired, not requests to provide them wtf.

Yeah, the way to change work conditions is strikes, nothing else really helps. But it works for the exact same reason the book did - because if workers are striking they can't make money, so they agree to work regulations so they can keep profiting.

 

Just saw the post about Helsinki opening several bridges for a similar purpose, so thought I'd share this here as well.

Porto Metro system didn't exist until around 20 years ago. Just last year, it carried more than 90 million people, and it's not stopping.

While traffic in Porto has actually gotten worse, as tourism and building rehabilitation have exploded, the investment in the metro continues.

This bridge is part of the new "Ruby line", and will provide another much needed way of crossing the Douro river, and will be exclusively used by pedestrians and cyclists, along with the metro.

This line is great because it will connect the other existing lines to a university campus and a large shopping center, while serving a fairly high density area where the residents mostly work in Porto, and have to commute daily.

 

Hi everyone!

I'm trying to control a "dumb" led light strip segment with an ESP-01S. This is fairly low current, the strip will pull 150mA-200mA max (depends on... artistic? needs).

I have two NPN transistors (2N2222), one to control the 12V supply to the white "channel" and the other the red+blue (don't need the green).

I had to pull-down the gates as I had some flickering, and it works perfectly if I manually connect the GPIOs after the ESP-01S boots.

The ESP will boot if I have the RX pin (GPIO03) pulled down on boot, but not if I pull down any of the others.

I'm not smart enough to come up with a way to have that extra pin I need to be high only during boot, while the gate it's attached to needs to be pulled down...

Any thought, other than getting something with more IO pins?
