So when they "divert all power to the engines" they just turn the AC off, right?

Today on the bench: a Poljot 2614.2H. All in working order, I’m just going through the motions for fun and practice.Some fun design choices with this one. One of the calendar springs is actually fixed in place, not removable. No idea what I’ll do if it broke, but it’s one less part that’s tricky to remove, tricky to install, and easy to lose.More importantly, same is true for the yoke spring! I’ve never seen that before. These are famously Born To Fly, they’re deceptively strong and will happily fuck off to the other side of the room. A nice touch!Also not pictured, but equally amusing – this one does have the infamous Soviet balance shim – a thin sheet of stamped metal they put between the balance bridge and the base plate, to compensate for the tolerances they fucked up elsewhere. In this movement however, it’s a really well made balance shim – sturdy, perfectly sized, and it grabs on to the baseplate spokes nicely, so it doesn’t slide around when you’re installing the balance back on. It’s like they knew they’ll need it, so they actually though it through and made it as good as they can. Cool!#watches #watchmaking #watchrepair

And here's all of it (before cleaning, obviously).

"The internet is soo bad! Shitty! It's called enshittification everyone!"They say, linking to the fucking Wired repost of Doctorow's article, which loads 36 megs of trash over 180 requests, breaks GDPR, covers text with shit...and yet if you actually bothered to read it, you'll see it linking to https://pluralistic.net/2023/01/21/potemkin-ai/#hey-guys, which loads instantly, doesn't break the law, and doesn't stuff big tech's pockets with fruits of someone else's work.You don't deserve non-shitty internet, you fucking idiots.

People with standing/electric desks and big-ass desktop PCs:Do you keep them on the floor, on the desk, or in a cage-holder-thing below the desk?If on the floor, was it ever an issue that cables turned out a bit short when the desk was fully up?Anything you’d do differently if you were buying one now?

@rysiek Dobry argument. Proponuję zatem sprowadzić problem głosowania do znanego rozwiązania – głosujmy przelewając 1PLN na numer konta przypisany do konkretnego kandydata.Niech nawet będzie zwrotny, ale skoro to taki godny zaufania system który totalnie spełnia nasze założenia to co może pójść nie tak?Skoro komputer jest dobry dla X, to na pewno jest też dobry dla Y. Logiczne.

@tyil You either have a downvote function or you reimplement it poorly :P

I wrote a Gitlab comment at $work 15 minutes ago.Two people appear to have been notified about it via email. They both have "Out of office" autoresponders.The autoresponders are now having a contest to determine who's more Out Of Office.They're averaging two emails per minute, responding to each other.I don't have enough popcorn to endure this. Send help.

@tyil Eh, I understand it. I wouldn't be using containers at all if it wasn't for customer projects, and I'd rather run an adblocker in the shell than give up work at this point.And I don't read that as "not even willing to try", more like "I'm keeping it in the back of my head"

My favourite bit from this shit is "it can result in a (...) innovation lag for the economy".Isn't the "innovation lag" one of the reason *why* it happens? There is no innovation in phones anymore, and people don't want to buy things just because they're new.
