Change your thought patterns. Minimise their actions in your mind.
They are not "psychopaths", they are just "idiots".
They do not "counterattack", there is no "attack" from your side. They are just "being a nuisance". Frame all the bumps and thumps as renovations if you want.
When they make a noise, turn UP your tv, just a little, so you can hear it over it. "Gee those renovations of theirs are a bit noisy, maybe I should put in a complaint."
When they rattle the ceiling of their apartment, "Hey it must be time to vacuum, thanks for reminding me. I'll do it now while you're renovating and making noise so it doesn't disturb you too much".
"I hear that plants respond to music so I'm just going to leave some on for Ferris, my pot plant, while I go out shopping for a few hours this morning" - Not too loud, just loud enough for Ferris to enjoy it. If you hear a lot of thumping it must be just them taking the opportunity to renovate while you can't hear them. I do hope they don't damage their ceiling with all that thumping while you're out, oh well.
All that activity on their part takes a lot of energy, your activities take very little. Which one do you think is going to end first?
It's only a matter of time before Google borks the fine grained notification system in Android in the quest to serve you more ads information to enhance your life.
Apps get one chance with me. As soon as I get an unsolicited notification begging me to interact with them, that's it, 100 percent silenced.
If they are house-bound, organise with a local taxi driver to get to the shop and get some things for them.
If they are mostly-mobile, same thing, but organise a drop off and pickup time and get a hand with getting groceries into the house and up stairs, etc.
A lot of the older "career" drivers will happily do regular stuff like this. Especially during the middle of the day in suburbia when it's pretty quiet. Beats sitting at a taxi rank reading the paper.
It's difficult on the back end of the charger as well.
A shopping centre or rest stop can't just spring for a few high capacity chargers for the car park. A single megawatt charger is 50 houses worth of consumption, so they now need a substation upgrade to provide what is basically a whole neighbourhood-equivalent of power.
standard practice to find these potential leaks with intensive pre-flight checks to identify and solve these issues before they escalate into a catastrophe.
Except these particular leaks are due to vibration modes (on the newly designed vacuum jacketed fuel lines) that seem to be only present at high g's towards the end of the burn.
After the first ship to use these new lines blew up, SpaceX made some changes and conducted a minute-long test firing on the ground of the second ship. A minute of the rocket going through various thrust levels on the ground is plenty of time to pick up issues if it was going to be visible on the ground.
Presumably it looked ok, so they launched it, and the second one blew up. They probably added more sensors on those lines, because they seem to be pretty sure that vibration modes are the issue on those lines now.
Yes, you could model this, and no doubt they did to some extent, but nothing beats testing in real life unfortunately.
Well, I did delete a company-mandated image from the bottom of my signature after I realised that it made even just a one-line "Thanks" email balloon out to 800kb.
You've got it all wrong, in traditional computer terminology the "hard drive" is the box that sits under the desk that collects cat fluff and cigarette tar.
I don't understand it. If I was a politician right now, I would not, under any circumstances, hitch my political wagon to the shitshow that is going on in the US. But Dutton and that "Trumpet of Patriots" crowd - bless their 1950's White Australia hearts - are all for it.
Labor would be wise to stall the election for a month or two, just to let things unfold a bit more over there.
It doesn't have to be "buy local", per se, it just has to be "buy non-US". But there are few tangible things I actually buy from the US. I don't mind stuff from the EU, it's a little pricey due to our exchange rate, but for the things I buy it's generally OK.
There are heaps of services that are bought from the US though - just about every streaming service, Google/Apple, Starlink, and so on. Those can fuck right off , if possible. Sometimes that's not practical (eg google/apple's ecosystem), but at least have a look for alternatives.
(Edit: they keep a small amount of propellant in reserve for the initial deorbit burn, and then position the solar array to give maximum drag which hastens things considerably)
As far as I know, apart from the first few batches, the "production run" of sats has a pretty low failure rate and are proactively sent to their demise.
People don't just leave leaking apps out there for consumption.
Ha! Welcome to corporate, where vendors sell you software and say that the hardware has to have 128GB of ram and when you poke around a bit you discover a single JVM with constantly growing memory usage with a script that restarts it every time it runs out of resources.
AND a log file that describes - in typical Java excruciating detail - the precise lines in each module where the devs allocated resources but didn't free them. About 40 times a second.
I loaded the video, paused, jump jump jump jump jumped through the timeline looking at the thumbnail images, about 5 seconds of actual playback while I watched them mess it up, more minor adjustments in the timeline, paused for 15 seconds at the thing I actually wanted, closed the video.
Good luck getting any kind of decent metrics out of that.
I can skim documents at 800 words a minute, they are mostly nicely arranged and indexed/sectioned. Compare that to videos where half the words are "um, so", and it's no wonder I prefer text.
Today I had the pleasure of trying to search for how to shift a chartjs array and finally had to try and watch a "tutorial video" where they allegedly discussed it.
Cut to me clicking around just trying to find the screenshot where they are actually doing the thing that I want to do, and then they proceed to fuck up its usage three times with much scrolling back and forth through their example code that they didn't show in full anywhere and rapidly clicking between windows while they got their shit together.
USA and Russia have public talks and say they have a "good solution".
Ukraine says ,"We are not interested in a solution negotiated by a third party and the aggressor in this conflict"
USA says "oh look Ukraine isn't coming to the party here these negotiations were in good faith we can't believe how they're acting we are withdrawing support."
Ukraine gets stomped on, USA and Russia divvy up the spoils of war.
