  • When someone previously told a vrtx vm not to auto boot after power up and none of the remote access is working either… Both undocumented as well, of course. And your tired AF tech is statically configuring the wrong IP range on their laptop to manu because it’s been a long shutdown day and are also unfamiliar with the system in general (me). Good times, I figured it out though, but lots of sweating and swearing.















  • You’re a crab in a bucket and so wrong.

    If you need to work to afford to live, you’re being lied to about what’s possible for a healthy and functioning modern society to thrive.

    Don’t forget that in order for capitalism to stay alive, it requires poverty, manufactured scarcity and obsolescence.

    You should question why billionaires even exist in what you consider to be a just and modern society. You should also look up a visual representation of just how much larger 1 billion is from whatever your gross annual income is if you still think it’s reasonable that they do exist.






  • I have a workday routine setup to turn specific lights on for set stations. If my bathroom vanity and kitchen lights were capable of taking smart bulbs, I wouldn’t have to touch a light switch in the morning. It also means I don’t have to fumble in the dark, half asleep.

    I also have another similar routine but for when my wife gets up with the kids for school.

    Being able to let the kids keep a light on but at 1% brightness is glorious, because it’s a nightlight they can’t pull out of the wall.

    Mood lightning in not just brightness levels but also colours.

    Granted half of what I said is capable without a voice assistant.

    Also I discovered that simulated grey light is a thing and it’s awful… But I learned that because of my voice assistant.
