does anyone on here know of a place in mainland china that'd do SMT rework on a thinkpad P4 motherboard? my brother's laptop has failed in such a way that it needs the CPU reballed

I have a whole bunch of 4S12P li-ion packs. They're BatterySpace off-the-shelf jobs, with this PCM: https://www.batteryspace.com/index.asp?PageAction=VIEWPROD&ProdID=4343

BatterySpace says I shouldn't put them in series as the PCM isn't designed for that. Does anyone have any tips for a way to turn these into 12S12P packs?

friend of mine is trying to get their life together and needs help https://gofund.me/5e16c55c

Heey, y'all. I am currently trying to find a job ASAP. My educational background is in computer science (associates) buut my working background is mostly in technical support (in-person), clerical, and customer service.
I am leaning towards those types of positions, bonus for remote/hybrid, but I am open to just about anything that doesn't involve heavy lifting or night shift

Things I regret: Looking at github issues for the open-source self-driving car conversion kit.

Thousands of people use these things on public roads.

cargo build? no, cargo vroom

@root whoa

We're encouraging small instances to spread out moderation and administration workloads. Every instance must abide by a centralized set of rules, which we are working on finalizing. Any conflicts will be worked out via our governance process; defederation and inter-instance warfare are some of the primary things we'd like to avoid.

Our ultimate goal is to build a nice system of websites to post on: one that's resilient, healthy to use, and inclusive for everyone.

we are open to more software than those two platforms, but (excepting special cases like WriteFreely) it must comply with the characteristics needed for our goals: no network-wide/global feeds, no visible metrics, no algorithms except reverse chronological, allowlist federation support, and functional interoperation with existing software.

quick summary: we are a group of folks, mostly from Cohost, building a federated island network (allowlist only), separate from the Fediverse. AFAICT, our project's the first large-scale attempt at this. Governance is by consensus, which is working pretty well.

Right now we've got forks of Akkoma and GTS, and devs working on a Cohost-like frontend and a central management system for things like allowlists. Our goal is to bring Cohost's positive characteristics to a federated environment.

I know a lot of folks who follow me are interested in the Website League project (https://websiteleague.org) - if that's you, and you're a Go developer, we could use another dev or two to help out with our work on adapting GoToSocial to our purposes, and working out federation kinks. (Elixir devs would also help with Akkoma!)

If you like our project, and you want to help out or ask questions, you can join our Discord (https://discord.gg/kKFpN8xpyK) or our development chat (https://coordination.websiteleague.org).

rick walked into the woods with a snowboarding instructor, distracted by her KV6 tits and ServerSidePheremoneEvents. she smiled, showing rancid gums, tongue pulsing green. his friends had disappeared one by one in a spell of real witchery, sacrificed in her sick, yearning imagination. gus had gone first, black lights crucifying him high above the forest after a night of stressful foosball. troy was targeted by a woman in a cavebearskin, numOfFemaleMainberries in her sucking cage. tragic.

here's a cool discovery. if you have a docker container with alpine linux serving an https site, and you use busybox's wget implementation for a docker health check, you will come back to find 60% or more system cpu usage

busybox doesn't clean up the "ssl_client" processes after wget exits. i ran ps aux and it took 30 seconds to show me that there were 42,000 zombie processes belonging to the web server, from a health check at 10s intervals

no SSO is the biggest thing holding us back in this project right now. we need to get zulip operational and we need to get SSO running to do that or we will never have SSO.

i got authelia and lldap working, but then it turned out the authelia dev didn't think self-service registration was a necessary feature

where can I find the fun conspiracy theories like how you can't astral project into the white house bc there are secret service agents on the astral plane, or about how prescription drugs are named after the elf that invented them

i had an idea and people liked it and 20 days of self-imposed crunch later i was working with a team of 30 people in a consensus-governed voluntarist organization and we'd constructed a new social media platform

i also got my entire print run culling/sequencing/editing process done in that time.

and then i got the flu and covid shots. I'm A Bit Tired.

is there a way to get the docker compose reference directly inside vs code somehow

@oliphant question: does the concept of an ActivityPub relay (as the various pieces of software that do this currently exist) have any relevance to an island network? there are a variety of them but they seem to be universally poorly documented.
