Hell the high power WiFi equipment^‡^ I installed at my Grandma's house had warnings about keeping a few feet clear of it when powered on due to health concerns and that's just WiFi equipment. I can't imagine the dosage of gnarly from a 2m powered dish.
‡ I installed that equipment because she wanted WiFi on all 10 acres of her property and she didn't want me to install more stations around her property. Now she has the broadcast equipment in her garage with a tape line on the floor like it's a Goddamned radiation research facility lol
It's a small farm and yeah it's Ubiquiti hardware though I don't think they sell it anymore. The last time I looked through their website I couldn't find it again.
Basically this thing is located on one end of the property and on the other end there's a nano station hooked up to a router because there was still a WiFi dead zone that she wanted covered. But given that that spot was inside a metal barn on the otherside of another metal barn I wasn't surprised.
Literally able to us the WiFi in a metal barn 50 yards away on the otherside of a garage
It doesn't faff about
Mowing the field at her place my phone will stay connected to the WiFi basically the whole time, the only WiFi blind spot that I had to fix was on the far side of her property where there's 2 metal barns, a garage, and a wall of her house between you and the broadcast equipment.
This sucks. This is leaning further into the Major Questions Doctrine that SCOTUS has been pushing, where agencies and their actually knowledgeable, employed scientists and technical experts, have no real control over regulatory policies, and instead are beholden to Congress and judges to decide e.g. how many ppm of a chemical...
The fact that it's Japan (a place with a damn good rep for trains) planning to make a giant conveyor system between 2 cities rather than a freight line is what's so shocking to me.
They're going to have to clear a lot of stuff for a big conveyor system why not do it properly and go with freight trains?
Trains are a tried and true method of moving freight, they have a bunch of skilled engineers already versed in trains, they have all the necessary industry for getting the parts for those trains built, etc, etc. This just screams stupid AF and wasteful AF to me.

I installed it on my Grandma's PCs not too long ago and even she enjoys it. She's almost 80.
We are having issues with her printer but it's one that has known issues with Linux in general (it's a fancy Epson laser printer, scanner, fax machine combo with bad Windows support) but I'm hoping to rectify that soon.
I would say the GUI reminds me more of Windows 7 than 10 which I really dig

Short bursts towards center of mass is best. You might not hit a head, hitting extremities is basically worthless for dropping a combatant, center of mass is where all the really important stuff is concentrated.

Had the same problem at my apartment, my workaround was putting the blinds back and putting my blackout curtains behind the blinds (because putting them between the blinds and the window made them upset too)
At least my apartment is wired mostly properly. Still have things on breakers that don't make sense though.
If they're advertising a price lock and not delivering a price lock how are they not being hit with the long arm of a government agency for false advertising?

Because of it being so closed off I've hopped instances
And honestly I'm probably going to hop again because having down votes disabled isn't very good IMO
Edit: 1 big thing though that I wish existed Lemmy wide would be if you have a comment or post removed (hell even bans) you get a message to your inbox. As it currently stands it just happens and unless you check mod logs you'll never know.
Sounds like you picked the wrong instance for an alt account
I'd say if you pick one that isn't federated with Hexbear, some specific domains ending in .ml, and some of the other conservative ones you'll have a far better time around the fediverse.
Specific instances are hard to find which is usually why I flex the block tool a lot around here. Blocking them when they start spewing their bullshit.
I can't think of any off the top of my head but I'd check the federated list of instances for some of the instances you see with large queer communities (like the one I'm posting from now) to get a general idea as us queer folk get hella targeted by conservatives online.

Revive a Nexus 5X long enough to patch it and transfer the data off of it (a really frustrating process BTW)
Heat treat resin prints (place print in box, set box on bed, set bed to 80C, come back in an hour, turn bed off, wait for it to hit ambient, remove box) this process is great for hollowed prints as not only will it cause and trapped alcohol to evaporate out but it will further cure the part and increase the durability of the part as well (CNC Kitchen has a great vid on it)
Keep my coffee warm while I was building and setting up a NAS for a friend
It was a very long day that started with a nice easy plan that quickly turned into "Which POS part is preventing this thing from working"
Fun fact it was the motherboard. Though it wasn't a consistent issue sometimes it was RAM failing, sometimes it was pcie not working, sometimes it was networking not working, etc. After swapping the motherboard everything worked beautifully.
Yes we tried reseating the CPU, yes we checked for bent pins, yes we made sure the cables were secure. Something was fucky with the motherboard.
