I swear by my Noctuas, they are fantastic fans. I've had a full set of them in my case for about 8 years now, even under heavy gaming load the fans will get more 'whooshy' but they are hardly noticeable and keep the system cool.

Don't worry too much about getting 'locked in' to a job, you can always do a career change, it's a lot easier than you think.

It really isn't, but vendors often make the IPv6 config optional and often don't have an auto-config wizard for IPv6 like they often do for IPv4.

Take Ubiquiti EdgeOS, setting up a PPPoE with IPv4 has a dedicated GUI wizard that shows up when you first log on, but IPv6 config is all confusing CLI commands.

IPv6 is haaarrrrrd because vendors are lazy.

We also use way more than just our eyes to navigate. We have accelerometers (ear canals), pressure sensors (touch), Doppler sensors (ears) to augment how we get around. It was a fools errand to try and figure everything out just with cameras.

Tale as old as time.

Engineers: "This is possible but we will need to equip every car with an expensive sensor suite"

Management: "So you're saying we can just remove the sensors and figure it out with your engineering magic, you guys are really good at that, you got my iPhone connected to ICloud so you must be reeeally good with technology."

Engineers: "..."

Management: "Also, anyone not up to this task is fired."

Won't SOMEBODY PLEASE think of the children!!!

I'm so fucking sick of people using 'protecting vulnerable people' as a front for them being shitty. It's so obvious that they don't actually give a shit about them.

I have an old Viera 50 inch Plasma, it chews like 240W while running but has not skipped a beat in the 13 years we've had it
