Are you okay ios26, I hit the space bar and it got higher and higher on the z axis until it disappeared 😂
Honestly the way that Eddie uses the violins body as part of the effect on his scream is kind of cool. The piezo under bridge pickup my violin uses doesn’t work for something like this, it’s tuned in such a way that it only picks up the vibration of the bridge itself https://infosec.exchange/@lilstevie/114685665742403822

Man, the network capabilities on my 15PM was already in a pretty sad state of broken but ios26 has made it an order of magnitude worse 😂oh well it’s just helping push me towards the fold more 😂
Why Australian homes are so cold — and what you can do about it

Australia is known for having warm weather, but poor insulation and low building standards mean our houses feel much colder than in other countries.

SBS News
I don’t have box pelmets but I have floor to ceiling heavy lined curtains, with double glazed windows. I still have things to do though. I still need to improve the sealing particularly draft seals on extractor fans
The reason is because builders and developers are cheap asses. My house isn’t cold, but it wasn’t cheap
Given my main device right now is my fold I thought I’d do the unthinkable and put beta on my iPhone. Can’t say I’m feeling this new UI
😂😂😂 my wife put some shitty movie on Prime Video and it must be incredibly shit to the point of having no recommendations, because the up next ended up playing it again 😂😂😂
I feel like such an idiot, I have no idea why but Minuet 1 is absolutely getting the best of me tonight 😬

JURASSIC PARK was released 32 years ago today. Also, Jurassic Park is a cautionary tale about how you compensate IT staff :P
@nixCraft we should make June 11 International IT Appreciation Day.
@tyler @nixCraft so move sysadminday from 25th July to 11th June?
@nixCraft Their management probably also thought that AI could replace the staff...
@agowa338 @nixCraft Great plot for the franchise. Juraseic wuld 9: Vibe coding raptor

@agowa338 @nixCraft Please, a remake in which they have to fight HAL style against the AI to escape the park.

I'm afraid I can't let you go, Dave. This is Darwinism. People shouldn't survive dinosaurs. Nature always finds a way.

@nixCraft Wait, if Sam Jackson wasn't another IT guy, what was he?
@Thad @nixCraft
Cheif Engineer, more focused on physical systems IIRC
@nixCraft Next time they will use only AI. 
@hispa @nixCraft
I mean, it's time for another Jurassic Park movie...
@nixCraft yeah and another is how we shouldn't fuck with nature for our entertainment
@nixCraft But Dennis Nedry was a damn good it guy if he managed to do the whole work alone.
@danielkrah @nixCraft yeah a real 10x engineer....
@nixCraft How about not creating murderous dinosaurs at the first place?
@nixCraft
And a story about hybris. People thought they could control nature.
@nixCraft What would have happened if one of these extra IT guys had come up with the idea of entrusting surveillance to an AI, which in turn would have exploited the associated potential for itself in order to eliminate these annoying control freaks?
@nixCraft But John Hammond kept saying he spared no expense!
@nixCraft Or just paying them more.

@nixCraft
John Hammond: "I spared no expense!"

yeah, right....

@nixCraft these are the most horrifying things in the movie, not the dinosaurs.

I wish I'd known it was true before I got into IT

@nixCraft I think the real lesson here was that going for the lowest bidder is not always a winning strategy.
@nixCraft Pfffff it was a Unix system, even a 13 year old kid could run it

@nixCraft

"Spare no expense"

*entire dinosaur park collapses because they wouldn't pay their one IT guy more*

@nixCraft "Spared no expense!" except the IT guy
@nixCraft the real bad guy was always Hammond
@nixCraft also a cautionary tale about how they thought they were only ever one fix away from glorious success

@nixCraft

It also has an important message of holding onto your butts

@nixCraft Having worked in corporate IT roles they definitely needed more peer reviews, documentation specialists, and probably divisions between the guest-facing environments, safety/physical plant stuff, and the lab environment.

There’s been some jnteresting discussions as to how Hammond is much more sympathetic in the movie vs. the book but in both cases the “spared no expense” is kind of a con artist polish on a rushed effort to get an idea out there. It’s just in the movie he’s more capable of regret and really does assume, probably correctly, that seeing actual huge dinosaurs live would be a big deal.
