​ Ik zoek (gratis) oude winkelinrichting - vooral kledingrekken en van die rekken met een paar 'graaibakken' boven elkaar. Het mag kapot of versleten zijn, zolang er nog maar functioneel bruikbare inrichting van te maken valt.

Dit gaat voor een kleine weggeefwinkel zijn, dus vooral de wat compactere dingen zijn ideaal. Laat het me alsjeblieft weten als je iets hebt staan, of iemand kent die wat heeft!

To the surprise of nobody whose worked on any collaborative projects at scale — people with toxic styles of engagement burn out the people actually doing the work and negatively affect the entire project.

This paper is specifically about Wikipedia, but like no shot this doesn’t apply to open source as well:

boston university fucked up their hrt guidelines on their website for injectable estradiol and this has probably hurt an indefinite amount of people

today I walked past this shop who clearly have a lot of stories to tell about alcohol licensing laws

So many free bikes!

gah. I've said this before, but I /hate/ intermediate waits. if something happens in like 0-4 seconds, that's great. I can just focus on it. if something takes an hour to run, that's fine too, because I can do other stuff in the background.

but things that take like 20 seconds to 2 minutes are the worst, because they're just long enough for me to task-switch away, but not so long that it makes sense to have a notification system to tell me when they're done

"Now that it is becoming safer to come together..."

I used to pride myself in having a large selection of facepalm gifs to react to things like this.... but I feel this deserves all of them chained into a loop and put on repeat for 10 hours.

Never forget that while HIV was killing "the right people" conservatives were cheering it on. They didn't bother pushing for treatments, a cure, preventative measures until white hetero dudes started to get it in droves.

And even then they'd rather teens not be able to get condoms

The key unlock was deleted in newer PLC software versions, but the lock logic remained.

After a certain update by NEWAG, the cabin controls would also display scary messages about copyright violations if the HMI detected a subset of conditions that should've engaged the lock but the train was still operational.

The trains also had a GSM telemetry unit that was broadcasting lock conditions, and in some cases appeared to be able to lock the train remotely.

3/4

We found that the PLC code actually contained logic that would lock up the train with bogus error codes after some date, or if the train wasn't running for a given time. One version of the controller actually contained GPS coordinates to contain the behaviour to third party workshops.

It was also possible to unlock the trains by pressing a key combination in the cabin controls. None of this was documented.
