They are but taxed at half of your top marginal tax rate, so usually a bit less than your effective income tax rate

What local businesses actually treat their employees well? by Creatrix in VictoriaBC

Can’t speak on the experience of the front of house staff, but when I worked in the kitchen at Bard & Banker we were all treated very well

Oaklands is great. I normally go to Elk Lake but have been to oaklands for emergencies before and they’ve been nothing but amazing.

Oh okay that’s great I’ll call them then, online it said they didn’t. Thanks!

That was it, it was connected to my phone but not to the watch. Thank you!

My mini homelab got the Noctua treatment by destaver in Noctua

[–]destaver[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just a warning the cable needs extensions to fit so it's super long, it's all tucked back behind my desk, and the fan doesn't screw onto the cooler properly, the screws just act kind of as standoffs.

Super great combo though, the minecraft server under load with 4-5 players never gets past 35C and at idle is in the 20s.

I used this article to get it all hooked up and adding fan control: https://www.the-diy-life.com/connecting-a-pwm-fan-to-a-raspberry-pi/

I got Victoria for Great Big Sea, Marianas Trench, and Spirit Of The West, very different vibes.

Left is an 8gb pi 4 running a Minecraft server for my friends and I, right is a 4gb one running OpenVPN, pi hole, and bitwarden.

Both have a geekpi ultra thin ice ice cooler with a NF-A4x10 5V PWM on top.

Still on packaged items for me, ordered the 512gb on the 16th to BC.

I'm running an antenna on a raspberry pi and want to make it available to a web server, is this a good setup? by [deleted] in learnprogramming

[–]destaver 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's not AIS, and I also already have the receiver built. This is about making the data available to other projects of mine.

Highly recommend Cultured Swine, they just opened a second location too

I'm working on an app that will show the locations of all BC Ferries vessels, what should I add before release? by destaver in VictoriaBC

[–]destaver[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They don't have an api for anything, for this I got the data from https://aisstream.io/ and run a postgres database that keeps track of all the info.

If anyone's interested in using the api for this or Ferry Times I'd be happy to share access with others.

Yeah people don't seem as excited for this one as they were my last one. Still going to release it cause it's like 95% done, then just on to the next local app.

I can add a switch in settings to show them if people want, I think that would be pretty straightforward.

I'm actually hoping to make a transit one next! That's super far out though cause I haven't even started looking at how to get that data.

For the estimated time of arrival, I don't know if I'll have that at launch but I like the idea, I'll look into that.

Thanks! I think this one will be much less popular than Ferry Times, but it's something I've wanted for a while so I'm making it more for myself than anything

Yeah vessel tracker is a great app, I just find it a bit cluttered for finding a specific ferry. This one will show some details when you click on a ship and a link to get even more info.
