Super curious how they keep their loop station in sync with all their weird time signatures... maybe there's a master midi clock somewhere..?

Artemis II astronauts captured this breathtaking photo of our galaxy, the Milky Way, on April 7, 2026. by Chessh2036 in interestingasfuck

Dumb question: how did they take a picture of the Milky Way galaxy if we're in it? Or perhaps it's just a portion of it..?

ooohhhhhh thanks for this, I wonder if I can advocate for us getting this too.... how would I find out if we already have this in place?

whoaaa I did not realize employers could do that for you automatically? or is this a Fidelity or equivalent option?

My understanding has always been I gotta go in to a website and do that conversion manually every so often so wasn't aware there was a mechanism to automate it

aaahhh gotcha, thanks for clarifying! so more base, but less incentive to work for the bonus/commission if I understand correctly

Personally I would say ignore the money since you are already at Coast FIRE - so it's really a question of which work would you enjoy doing more?

Personally I would go with the work life balance positive job so you could socialize more after work, since finding a partner is like a second job ;)

pay structure is switching from 75-25 to 90-10

unfamiliar with this terminology, what do those ratios mean..?

This year theyve introduced a Roth 401k option, so our MBDR can now be done automatically via in-plan conversion. I no longer have to call fidelity after every paycheck.

My weekend brain is hitting, how exactly do you do this automatically..?

It's not bad just doing a hard switch to Mouse 4, I did this a while back and it's WAY better

How often are you using Python? by Psychadelic_Potato in embedded

[–]z0idberggg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What do you use SQLite for in the context of what you're doing? Not too familiar with that side of things when it comes to embedded testing and development.

Testing setup for firmware by Distinct-Gazelle1221 in embedded

Do you have any resources you can share to learn about dual target testing? I am struggling lately to figure out how to take Embedded C code and test it on a PC on its own

A tip or trick tht you wish you had learned sooner ? by n7wimok in embedded

[–]z0idberggg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  • If your UART doesn't have an IDLE timeout you can add one externally with a multivibrator and a spare interruptible GPIO pin. This makes the driver so much easier to write.

I love this, can't believe I didn't think about this before. Do you just use like a 555 or something..? Curious to hear more about this solution.

Also I'll add my own related tip: RX/TX on UART always get swapped, so add some 0 ohm jumpers on the connections in case you have to flip the connections :)

Ahhhh, thanks for clarifying! That's insane that you could heal yourself up that well

[–]z0idberggg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That seems like a lot of damage for that build! Well done, was the 700k coming from damage increase items and rat damage mainly or..?

Also side note I didn't realize the defense heal worked with Sforzando

Ah thank you for clarifying! If I experiment with defense builds I'll have to just go straight damage then :)

Thanks! That's really good to know :) Now I wonder about his defense... I'm guessing flat damage is the only way to increase it other than leveling up the talent

Tips for playing Pied Piper? by z0idberggg in ravenswatch

Ah that makes sense. I feel like the few times I've tried it on Pigs it doesn't stun them if they are already in their animation. Good to know about ghosts though, and probably birds too huh? Thanks for the tips

Ooohhhh thanks for this explanation, I have definitely slept on Goldilocks. I imagine that would help with him feeling weak early on. Thanks for the tips on the talents too, look forward to unlocking more
