Drills and taps two holes, adds a metal strap, and sacrifices a tool to save a 5 minute fix of jumping over the contact with a 2" piece of wire lmfao

I work on industrial controls. Very likely that the switch is momentary, meaning it’ll go back when released.
Sometimes there’s a little piece of plastic in them to remove the momentary setting, but this works too lol. Fuck it, it’s maintenance.
Cue every one of the factory workers at my job to crack jokes about a Chinese invasion all day
This seems like a dumb tiktok trend or some shit. It’s hard to get by in this world without a cellphone
But I just wish anyone would still want to talk on the phone. I love chatting with friends for an hour or so on the phone but everyone hates it now. Quick random texts just feel so much less personal. Ah well
I have a semi-decent Intel NUC that got decommissioned from being a game server, so it’s not really in use.
Do you have any recommendations for a Linux distro or home media OS that I could set it up in the living room to play some emulators, watch Plex off my NAS, maybe some adblocked youtube or spotify, etc?
Pick up and play would be key. A wireless keyboard would be fine but a remote would be ideal
“the internet is turning into a hellscape so I’m going to make it worse”
Cool? I guess?
Yeah, looking up how to do something on an 8 year old post and finding deleted comments is getting really old. It’s even worse now that Google’s search engine has gone down in a bullshit flaming AI crapshoot and adding reddit to your search is the only way to find a human answer anymore.
Soulseek my friend
I still have a pixel 3A. I work in a factory and hardly ever check my phone while at work. In the evenings, I still use it pretty lightly.
Most of the time I’ll work a shift, go home and forget to charge it overnight, wake up and go to work again. It usually dies around the end of my shift on that second day.
Whatever sleep technology is in pixels is very good.
I’m running a couple dozen docker containers on unraid and I only have one NVME cache disk, it’s 256 GB. I have only have 76 GB filled on my cache disk, the majority being attributed to Plex with things like movie trailers, temporary storage for torrenting, etc.
Just wanted to give you a heads up that 1 TB and a 2 TB NVME drives may be a bit overkill unlesa you’re trying to host a lot of VM’s
“documenting the change” is a pipe dream.
If you’ve ever worked in maintenance, active production, etc, you’ll be lucky to even have schematics. And trust me, there are a lot of hacks of people fucking with controls for 30+ years straight that soooo much of it is full of “fixes” like this, whether it’s something pushing a button in, or pieces of metal instead of fuses, or wires jumping over what’s “in the way” like whole safety systems and e-stops, contactors forced to run, etc etc etc.
