I write code and do other nerdy stuff. Also if you are looking at my bio trying to find something to ad hominem against me, reconsider that. It never works.
@DanRamo07555230@desert_starr_57 Yes it could be just managed by turning physical dials.
And you would take 2 days of managing this for you to go insane.
And I mean YOU!
@untamedfarmgirl@WatcherGuru Come on, her net worth did not come from her salary.
Everyone knows that house or senate seats means you can enrich yourself on insider trading and kickbacks.
The ones who are still poor (or poorer than when they got elected) are the ones you want to trust. Maybe.
@kangminlee@OrbitalLabsX It doesn't really.
They are both quite bad.
Who is worse really boils down to how you weigh different things (and also what social norms you compare them to, personally I think they should be compared to contemporary for their own time; not both compared to 2026)
As for why you have read-write. Because they may want to use strategic power usage.
Cool it down to -40 while power is cheap, let it heat up to -30 when it gets expensive.
You may say that that isn't that significant. I know of buildings that saved 75% of their air-conditioning bill by just pumping cold night air through the building at night.
It cools down the walls, the walls will resist the heating up; one in particular didn't need to start the aircon before noon.
@desert_starr_57 So, most likely because the temperature controllers are cheap universal temperature-regulation modules, so their temperature range is just how far the temperature probes can sense reliably.
That being said, I do not think the freezers have the ability to heat.
@DanRamo07555230@desert_starr_57 99% sure it was monitoring and control systems that were connected to a private device-network. Then that network was connected to a computer that was connected to the internet.
They compromised the control-computer, and used that to control the freezers.
Fully agree.
Or running state-owned (but independent; so just "state is the shareholder") hospitals to compete with the private ones. They both compete on equal ground, except the state doesn't expect a profit, but *do* expect gradual growth in actual size and services without re-investment from the state.
Both yes, and no.
It requires competition.
Look at how the United Launch Alliance (ULA) were working before SpaceX came in.
This is why anti-monopoly laws need to exist.
The second someone gets a monopoly (or a too big to fall market share) they can decide to fall into a pattern of not improving, just charging more.
@0Novale0@DelusionPosting Because cherry picking frames that happens to support your narrative is cope.
And you know this.
You are 100% aware of this.
You prettied you aren't, but you are.
@I6ot2run2keep@AntiWokeMemes Also because government hasn't slapped a bunch of red tape on it to make it "safer".
Some of it does make it safer, and it is NEEDED, but a lot of it is just red tape for the sake of being red tape.
@thereal_urkince@LugouLegosi@MattisRedacted 100% not fascism, because they did.
They some times held off, as long as the owners behaved as if they were nationalised (walked in lock-step with the government).
The think I say:
Catholics and Protestants had periods where they hated each other. Like to the death.
It doesn't mean that they weren't both Christian religions.
There's also different denominations of Islam (Shia and Sunni primarily), they are both muslims, despite (still, even today-today) trying to kill each other in some places.
