Even with corrective lenses? Lots of guys war wear glasses, and I've never had a vision test(for work) beyond a pre-employment physical. I guess that's to say: get your foot in the door.

The bigger concern is hearing; we get tested annually. Wear your ear plugs!

Dude I might as well kill myself this is getting fucking ridiculous. Everything I want to do I can't. https://mstdn.starnix.network/system/media_attachments/files/116/656/698/865/419/161/original/7b...

Dude, join the power engineers. There's good money in it. Your state might not even have license laws like mine. Given your proficiency with tech, you could even get into controls and not work the silly hours and make even more money.

PSA for anyone using #QEMU #KVM for #SingleGPUPassthrough
Guides are all over the net suggesting hooks scripts invoking pci devices, unloading/loading kernel modules, and other unnecessary things. Here's my current hook script for starting the VM:

systemctl stop display-manager


That's it. And the reverse for teardown:

systemctl start display-manager


#IOMMU groups still apply, and you need to pass the correct PCI devices to your VM, but everything else is handled automatically.

Disclaimer that this is how it works currently for my AMD card. I did have a working setup with my NVIDIA card that did unload/load kernel modules, however it seems things have come a long way since I set that up.

One of these days I hope to understand how people manage to get into credit card debt. I just tried to apply for an Amazon card, it got declined. I've been paying all my bills on time for years and I ...

@Mitch Conner

That's your problem. They want you to carry debt. No credit is somehow worse than bad credit because at least with bad credit they know they can bleed you dry with minimum payments that only pay toward interest.

So Australia banned under 16s from social media recently and now the government is going after companies for failing to “do enough” to inhibit under 16s from getting on social media... Interesti...

The irony is they're finding their law to be unenforceable without draconian restrictions for everyone, and even then, kids still find a way around it. The problem is the draconian restrictions for everyone was always the point.

I was a teen when Guitar Hero came to popularity, and came to the same conclusion. My time was better spent practicing a real instrument than playing a cheap imitation on the game. I think this still holds true today in this instance.
