saa aa aam @nonlinearities.bsky.social · 04/12/2024RJ-45 is just such a nice solution, being cheap and with plenty of conductors and locking. Is the issue waterproofing? XLR isn't more waterproof, I don't think? 000
saa aa aam @nonlinearities.bsky.social · 04/12/2024E-Stop I could imagine using some sort of current sense (short 5V to ground and trigger the stop on a current threshold). 210
saa aa aam @nonlinearities.bsky.social · 04/12/2024Seems like no. How could you even get the CAN lines, ground, and power over three wires? If ground were just for a voltage reference, you could filter the CAN lines I suppose, but it also carries 1 A if the power line does. 110

saa aa aam @nonlinearities.bsky.social · 22/11/2024Signal is also open source, and there is something of a network effect (aka critical mass of users) to it that makes it worth using, especially for quick and easy encrypted communication if it's urgently needed. 000

saa aa aam @nonlinearities.bsky.social · 21/11/2024I was just thinking to myself about how nice a cult this is, maybe I should be saying that out loud more often 120
saa aa aam @nonlinearities.bsky.social · 20/11/2024I honestly don't know what the right answer is here. I have faced situations like this before and asked myself "am I the representative of all trans people who has to fight right now? Or can I just be a person doing my own person thing under an unfair situation?" 120
saa aa aam @nonlinearities.bsky.social · 20/11/2024I hear you. And I do personally wish she had at least made her statement a stronger rhetorical rejection of the situation. I wonder what the ideal form of "standing up" looks like then? Should she say that she will refuse to comply, and will have to be dragged out of the women's restroom on day one? 110
saa aa aam @nonlinearities.bsky.social · 20/11/2024I think it's more complicated than that. Does this mean that any trans official will necessarily be fighting trans-themed battles from day one? That means they will be less effective at other causes, which will make voters less inclined to vote for them. 110
saa aa aam @nonlinearities.bsky.social · 18/11/2024I can't shake the feeling that every take I read on threads is bad. It feels like there is a culture of missing the point and having big feelings anyway. 030
