I'm tired of every SaSS product being called an "OS." Make an operating system, you cowards.

Reconnect with your American heritage and get a gun. That will solve the problem.

This will likely not persist a Zoom update, so I suggest writing a script or better yet a service which does it in the background for you. Lmk if you want a hand.

If you're on a mac, the sound files are located at /Applications/zoom.us.app/Contents/Resources, the file is called dingdong.pcm. There's a file here called TNG Chime, I think it's what you're referring to www.trekcore.com/audio/ use ffmpeg to convert to raw and then python's pilk from raw to pcm

If you have some sus wiring in the house see if your insurance company will send you a Ting device for free, they’re supposed to detect arc faults.

No, you can’t measure this without opening the panels/equipment. Hazard is not causing a fire, it’s shocking yourself or shorting something causing arc flash/blast. Unless your panels are Federal Pacific/Zinsco, then you’re fucked.

Arlen Abraham @arlen.bsky.social · 27/09/2026
If the retrofit was done by an amateur, not inspected and included a sub panel then it’s quite possible you have neutral to ground bonded twice. Could also be the solar I guess but again that wouldn’t pass inspection.

Arlen Abraham @arlen.bsky.social · 27/09/2026
Or I spose multiple ground neutral bonds. You’re only supposed to have one

Arlen Abraham @arlen.bsky.social · 27/09/2026
Could also be open neutral but then you’d have Other Problems.

Arlen Abraham @arlen.bsky.social · 27/09/2026
That’s either a bad bond between ground and neutral at the service entrance or PG&E’s problem. Easy to check.

but if the jacket has thickness isn’t the outside always on the outside regardless of the sleeve orientation?

Was thinking about this again, TV might get mad if WiFi chip is missing. Best bet is to remove the antenna. If the antenna is on the PCB rather than external you can cut the trace. I can walk you through this. All you need is an xacto or other sharp blade you don’t care about.
