Take a look at cement board and the codes for your area for a wood stove.

There’s certain gap requirements for heat etc but you could rig up something fairly simply whether a box or more open enclosure.

There are also fire extinguishers that are activated by heat and sit above a potential fire source. People use them in 3D printer enclosures fairly often. Batteries burn for a long long time depending on how charged they are so it would have limited effectiveness.

This could actually be a really interesting and useful product idea. Maybe a kit with GFCI outlet, surge protector bar with fused outlets, huge spacing between outlets to allow for large plugs, metal/cement board case, wire shelving, ventilation fans to keep batteries cool but have louvre shut to cut oxygen for fires. Hmmm I want this for my garage.

I don’t know, sorry. Just saw that detail on the wiki page but didn’t want to link a page of spoilers.

I remember ‘Braid’ being very good. A number of different time manipulation mechanics throughout the different levels of the game. Puzzle platformer.

There’s an anniversary edition planned so maybe stick it on a wish list for now.

Doing what I can to document but I’m realizing that it’s a deliberately informal workplace likely to avoid this type of records keeping.

We’ll see how Tuesday goes but I don’t see them not getting involved.

My brother is a Health and Safety trainer, auditor etc. He’s been a good resource and I’m confident of my standing but have reached out to several people I know that facilitate legal resources if needs be.

Yup. I have emails and such that I’m backing up. I have multiple witnesses to conversations. I’m engaging resources that I have outside of work as well in terms of legal next steps and making sure I can keep affording my medication.

Still internal. So by exposed I mean legally they have been informed of this negligence and not acted in a timely manner to address it. I gave them a week to do what they need to do and Friday went to another employees house after work and went over the SDS for the chemical that has possible injured him because they had yet to inform him. They had their chance.

Long weekend so Tuesday a machine isn’t get turned on and by Wednesday they start losing about 2k every 4 minutes.

Pretty bad shit. Corrosive enough to blind or nerve damage within 3 minutes. Long term aerosol exposure rating of 2mg/m3.

I’ve recently exposed what I think constitutes criminal negligence at my company for safe handling of various chemicals. Pretty sure I’m getting fired on Tuesday.

AMA?

The Last Man on Earth was also amazing and under recognized.

While you were neurotypical, I studied the unwind.

While you were able-bodied, I studied the unwind.

While you developed your career, I studied the unwind.

Now you’re stressed out and have the audacity to come for advice!?!

Lmao. ASD, MCAS, 4 years disability. I’ve got lots of practice.

Podcasts. I have a very aural internal experience and just having someone else’s voice in my head helps a lot.

Video games. There’s so much science put into making video games an escape it’s almost like cheating. If you look at them as an engineered tool designed for escapism it’s kind of amazing.

Gardening. Takes a certain amount of privilege in space, money and patience but it hits a very deep evolutionary satisfaction.

Nature. Just get as deep into trees as you can and then sit or walk. Find a tree that you like and keep visiting it through the year. Watch how things change through the season and how it fights a fungus or feeds the birds. Connect to an ephemeral but living thing in an implicitly liminal space to disconnect from your constructed reality.

Making something. Shelves are easy. Pizza or pie is just involved enough but not too much effort. Good for iteration and practice too. Lots of people do Lego or puzzles. I enjoyed 3d printing but it’s a major time investment thats hard to maintain.

I really enjoy The Long Dark in pilgrim/easy mode.

A) no other game captures walking in the woods during winter the way this one does. Brings me right back to growing up in the bush in Eastern Ontario.
B) it’s a walking/scavenging/survival game in an empty of people world. On easy mode you don’t need to worry about the predators and the survival elements are more realistic than punishing as in higher difficulties.

They’ve recently added some interior design elements so you can find an abandoned cabin and just hole up in a quiet world. It’s a really nice escape I find.

Working fine all day yesterday playing Black Mesa.

Did you by chance clone your drive when swapping ssd? I noticed a few quirks with mine like verifying install on every boot, screen blinking on and off during sleep process, hitching with the steam button etc. All that seems to have gone away with a full reimage.

Interesting. I just reimaged mine this morning for a very similar issue but didn’t run into any problems yet after restore.

Mine crashed while playing Uncharted and after it rebooted it would flip to a black screen when launching a game. Stayed black until the game fully launched and once you quit it would stay at a black screen instead of showing SteamOS. If you hit the volume buttons the screen would stay on until the status bar went away. If you managed to navigate to the desktop it worked fine. Screen came back normal after a reboot but problem would come back after every game launch.

Haven’t gotten to test yet while waiting for games to download. Somehow my sd card got corrupted during the restore so I lost all my downloads.

Oh god I know too much about this. Long comment. Sadlol.

What kind of cast? Above or below the elbow?

I had above the elbow for 9 weeks once and below 3 times for 3-6 weeks on my right arm. Only below the elbow on my left but 5 times. My bones aren’t so good.

Above the elbow I played a lot of Warcraft 3(long time ago lol), Civ, AoE etc. Games that only required simple clicking but lots of hot keys to control. Above the elbow cast prevents a lot of you ability to rotate your arm so switching the mouse to your left doesn’t help much.

Below the elbow it depends if your thumb is immobile or not. If your thumb is free then it’s a matter of buying a cheap small mouse that will fit in your palm with the giant cast bulge. FPS and fast movements will be painful and not recommended but slower games and general use isn’t much impeded.

Immobile thumb is maybe the worst. Grab a cheap number pad and place it under your hand so you can use four fingers on the buttons. Mouse in your left hand. This severely limits what you can do with a computer.

Look up some brain exercises to ease the transition between sides of your brain and handedness. Also hold on to the skills you develop in these few weeks. Being able to work right or left hand helps with a lot of manual tasks with weird angles like using a drill under a sink or what have you.

In Canada at least most groceries stores with have frozen mixed vegetables in ‘Asian’ or California’ mixes. Great for a quick ramen stir fry.

Doesn’t anyone else remember back in circa 2011-2014 when ISIS was all over Reddit?

Like you just be browsing r/Syriancivilwar or r/Arabspring and all of a sudden there’s some ISIS motherfucker just shitting everywhere? Saying the absolute worst things. r/syriancivilwar even had ISIS/ISIL flair for a while. To be overly fair, I did have one really interesting conversation(with a dude who thought I deserved death) about ‘Paulinism’ vs ‘Christianity’ but I don’t think that overall makes it worth having folks like that around.

I feel like people forget that era of development of mod tools and site policies. r/The_Donald were running into rules put in place to deal with literally ISIS.

Give yer balls a tug. Seriously. Maybe if you’re being as shitty as literally ISIS then you should take a look at your behavior. Get the fuck out of here.

It’s also highly disturbing that at least ISIS was honest. R/The_Donald would never admit to their hatred.
