So you can't download them, you should run them directly on tencent cloud or something? Smart...

Come join us! We have wine and baguettes, I'm sure we can make it work.

Oh please do. ASAP, so that the EU and Canada can setup a combined front.

Would be great if he included Mexico too...

No, 10 days is way more than enough, it's even overkill.

If the full country, all workers, stopped for one (1) day, the billionaire elite would loose their shit.

Because they would instantly know that they lost control of the narrative, and that the people realized that it's them who have the elite by the balls, not the other way around, and they'd come begging to the table.

Americans aren't at that stage yet, but there's a chance that this cabinet and their incompetence will finally go too far and break the camels back.

Because if you don't stand up to them, you stand with them.

That's an interesting point. I'm sure you're right, it would not trigger anger fits on so many people, by a long shot.

It still irks me tough, because all planes fly (or they wouldn't be a plane), that's a defining characteristic. But planes in general don't crash, and conflating the two just adds to the fear of planes and does very little for our overall safety.

I'm not arguing they're not dangerous, because they certainly are. But I think the important discussion is why they can crash, and how we can prevent that.

I don't think anyone could disagree with you, if they're being honest, men are dangerous. I was hoping for a discussion on why, or if, we can live as a society without one half being afraid of the other, but I'll take the plague I suppose.

Thank you for your helpful insight.

My problem with this post is exactly the same I have with any broad assumptions over a poorly defined group: taken as fact, they're false.

Of course it's meant to make a point, and a very valid one. But I'll point out that there are many places in the world where a young woman can go out for a walk at night without fear of never being seen again, and it's not because there's fewer men, so perhaps we should focus on the conditions to achieve this?

Being the reigning monopoly isn't morally worse in a vacuum. The problem is all the skulduggery to get to that position, and to even worse, to keep it.

Shhh!... Just keep walking and don't look at them, they'll ignore you if you're lucky.

They use arch Linux

Hi everyone!

I'm trying to control a "dumb" led light strip segment with an ESP-01S. This is fairly low current, the strip will pull 150mA-200mA max (depends on... artistic? needs).

I have two NPN transistors (2N2222), one to control the 12V supply to the white "channel" and the other the red+blue (don't need the green).

I had to pull-down the gates as I had some flickering, and it works perfectly if I manually connect the GPIOs after the ESP-01S boots.

The ESP will boot if I have the RX pin (GPIO03) pulled down on boot, but not if I pull down any of the others.

I'm not smart enough to come up with a way to have that extra pin I need to be high only during boot, while the gate it's attached to needs to be pulled down...

Any thought, other than getting something with more IO pins?
