"the guy" who invented the space pens is a whole entire company that makes many things and is staffed by many people.

The "space pens" are just their normal pens but with pressurized ink cartridges and special ink (and the development was paid in full by Fisher) but they were bought at MSRP by NASA. And because everything NASA does is public domain, you can actually see the original PO for the pens! They spent $2.25/pen in November 1967 which would be worth about $28 today.

It would also be crazy if instead of spending millions on R&D, they just bought the pens from a company at MSRP...

And like once a year, the busiest airport in the world

Damn I just looked it up and in practice you have stricter rules than we do here in Indiana haha

It's okay, y'all can stay down there on your side of the bridge

Ice is naturally antimicrobial because North Face doesn't make any coats small enough for bacteria and whatever so they get too cold and drive their little RVs down to Little Florida

We need to deal with this now though. We can just keep kicking this ice under the fridge

don't let them catch you, you WILL lose your job

Hey director of IT for a trucking company here, i just want to reiterate this part!

Don't fucking do this. Any of this advice. You WILL lose your job and we WILL blacklist you from the industry for this shit. Maybe if you drivers could actually mange your fucking log books and follow the safety regulations we wouldn't need to have ELDs and camera and GPS and fucking canbus monitoring and annual inspections and all of the other """invasive nonsense""" the government requires.

I dont want it either. Its all crazy expensive, annoying to manage, and I have to constantly deal with drivers complaining about it.

Sorry. I'm a little upset with this issue because its a constant issue i have at work. But no there is nothing you can do besides just get another job.

I just want to reiterate it again. Do NOT mess with the equipment your company has in your truck. At best you'll just get fired but I've seen my company respond with legal measures in the past.

I honestly don't really see the problem here. This seems to mostly be targeting scrapers.

For unauthenticated users you are limited to public data only and 60 requests per hour, or 30k if you're using Git LFS. And for authenticated users it's 60k/hr.

What could you possibly be doing besides scraping that would hit those limits?

I tend to have some more free time on Sundays so I was hoping to start making some nicer and fancier diners.

I'd say I would have about 90 minutes or so that I could dedicate to prep time (or if it needs prepped the night before like a marinade that's fine too) and pretty much as long as it needs for cooking too.

What's your favorite meal to make on your weekends?

Custom Feeds (lemmy.world)

I used to use Boost for Reddit and one of my favorite features was the custom Feeds.

Is there any plans to bring those back? Or am I just missing it?

I (straight male) think a woman smoking a cigarette is really really hot. Like it turns me feral when I see it.

I have to constantly remind myself that is just marketing from cigarette companies haha

To be fair, this camera was put in the water in the 1970s...

Hello all, I am looking to start getting back into RSS feeds but nothing Ive found so far matches all of my requirements so i was going to see if you guys had any advice.

My requirements are:

  • Self hosted (preferably with an official docker container)
  • I should be able to view it in the web, as well as with an Android app but it doesn't have to be a first party app
  • It has to look nice and modern, preferably with a dark mode option

Anything you guys know of that would meet all three of those things?

Currently my plan is to run FreshRSS as my aggregator and FeedMe or Focus Reader on Android. I don't really have any plans for web viewers though

The IRS just switched columns and rows. So there's 60k rows and 330 million columns /s
