Have you looked into becoming an Instrument Technician? It's halfway between electrician and engineer. You can start with a contractor and if you're any good at all a manufacturing company will "poach" you from the contractor. If you're good at that, it's a straight shot to Maintenance Planner, then Maintenance Manager. I'd expect that trajectory to take several years, but you're pretty quickly out of the bull work and your tool bag will be much lighter.
Verizon and Google keep doing these wild trade in deals. They keep giving me $600+ to trade in last year's Pixel with 3 year "financing". So $22/mo and I always have the current Pixel. I know they're screwing me, but I can't figure out how 🤷🏻
Boeing announced in April 2004 that it was studying the possible sale of its plants in Wichita , Tulsa and McAlester . Boeing included balancing the interests of employees, customers, shareholders and its plant communities in its criteria for the decision.
"We firmly believe that this decision provides the best available outcome for the Wichita/Tulsa Division and its plant communities by creating new opportunities for sustained growth as a separate operation. Onex shares this perspective, and we look forward to a long and productive relationship together," Mulally said.
Proxmox was the answer for me. OpenMediaVault in a VM for NAS, LXC containers for things that need GPU access (Plex and frigate). Hell, I even virtualized my router. One thing I probably should have done was a single docker host and learn podman or something similar. I ended up with 8 or 9 VMs that run 8 or 9 dockers. It works great, but it's more to manage.
You'll want 2 network cards/interfaces- one for the VMs and another for the host. Power usage is not great using old gaming parts. Discrete graphics seem to add 40 watts no matter what. A 5600G or Intel with quicksync will get the job done and save you a few bucks a month. I recently moved to a 7700x and transcode performance is great. Expect 100-150 watts 24/7 which costs me $10-15 month. But I can compile ESPHome binaries in a few seconds 🤣
The Dems voted in 2020 against Trump, not for Harris. And they'll do it again.
