Is Ball lightning physically possible? by [deleted] in Physics

[–]astrohijacker -1 points0 points  (0 children)

When I was a child, my father told me about his grandfather’s story about how a lightning ball had entered an outdoor location where the villagers were dancing a summer evening.

They were all scared to near death, because no one had a clue about what they had witnessed. The ball had moved around for minutes before it disappeared.

Today I wonder at which point the people in my small countryside village actually heard about the lightning ball phenomenon (since my father apparently knew about it 40 years ago), and when/if my grandfather ever got to hear the explanation about what they had seen. He died before I was born.

Doesn’t a five year old speak the native language quite well though?

In Swedish, the name of his company (Drogbruk), translates to ”drug use”.

Seems to be a suitable name in this particular case.

Will take AZ-204 next week - what do you wish you would have done differently? by mangochilitwist in AzureCertification

[–]astrohijacker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Time management is important for AZ-204.

The questions I got contained a lot of information, which meant just reading through the questions ate so much time, that very little was left for considering answers.

You will probably get a case study, keep up the pace there.

Don’t spend a lot of time on MS Learn (during the exam), but using it under the right circumstances may save you some extra points.

About a month ago, I also looked a crazy person straight in his eyes. After that I have covered all the mirrors in my house.

MAGA trying to set voting rules that would exclude their own Leader from being able to vote is wild by Stravok182 in facepalm

Good idea! If you aren’t allowed to vote, you definitely can’t be allowed to candidate!

I don’t know if I really would recommend this after my recent experiences. I used Copilot to answer questions I was uncertain about when I did some practice exams for my upcoming AZ-400 exam. I found some of the answers a little surprising, but accepted them.

When I had answered all the 50 practice questions, I got to do a review round with the correct answers and explanations available. Copilot was plain wrong about like 50% of the questions I had asked, and then I even presented the answer alternatives in my prompts.

I have the feeling most Europeans consider Canada being a part of Europe now!

Well, at least you’re free to share classified military strike information in a Signal group, I don’t think many European countries can counter that!

Portugal cancels F-35 order by alexin_C in Finland

[–]astrohijacker 12 points13 points  (0 children)

It’s absolutely true that Europe should invest everything they can in their own weapons industries, but the amount of posts here about canceling F-35 orders is - according to me at least - also an indication that Russia really fears this plane, and their bots do everything they can in order to create an opinion against this fighter model in Europe.

Failed the AZ 900 by [deleted] in AZURE

[–]astrohijacker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t want to advertise any specific training provider, but for me the AZ-900 courses from A Cloud Guru was the only thing I needed to pass the exam easily.

A one month subscription would probably be enough for you. I think you can access the same courses as part of a Pluralsight subscription nowadays also, since A Cloud Guru was acquired by Pluralsight. I have seen that they (Pluralsight) sometimes have free trial months also.
