  • Refusing isn't an admission of guilt. You agree to submit to a chemical test in order to have a driver's license. The calibrated instruments are considered evidentiary tests, so refusal of either a blood or calibrated breath test results in an immediate revocation of your license, it's unrelated to whether or not you were sober.

    The handheld devices can only provide probable cause to the officer, and they're usually ripped apart in court. They also only work with alcohol, so if there are any other drugs involved, they need to do a SFST anyway.

  • I can forgive the ram decision, they're producing laptops that can be upgraded in the future to keep them from becoming waste, not upgraded using old equipment now.

    I actually do have 2230 ssds laying around. I bought a few used computers on eBay to use as servers that had 128gb versions of these little shits in them that I had assumed were 2.5" not m.2. Wouldn't use them in a new laptop for me, but it's plenty enough for a school laptop or device that isn't storing data on that particular drive.

    I'm not going to rag on them for going with this form factor, because they are very conscious about their designs, but it isn't like it's hard to accommodate a range of m.2 sizes. You just need a little hole you can screw the mounting...screw into. Like, maybe you can't fit a 2280 in there, but from what I've seen 2242 is more common than 2230.

  • If it helps, those cringe moment you have of something you did in the past? That means you've grown past it. You're able to see that behavior in yourself and recognize it as a cringey moment because you're a better person than you were then. Yeah, it sucks to have those, but take it as an indicator that you're doing just fine.

  • I like to think that I'm a do gooder in general, I usually will always respond to help a timed side quest. FO4 made me question whether or not I was a caring and compassionate person because I did not give a fuck about those settlements after about four calls to help.

    Every settlement I would help the first time, set up some turrets, then it was up to them to deal after.

    I think what did it was the house with a little farm constantly getting attacked. Three times before I could even get to the next step in a real quest signalled your doom.

  • Sorry to say, this area is absolutely nothing like southern California. The largest populated area in the county is a village of 300 or so people. If you blink driving by, you'll miss it.

    That said, they could slightly adjust their lifestyle and be just fine. Wolves are more important.

  • I'm actually pretty down with that that. We should be able and ready to produce whatever we need in case another country does what trump is doing or something happens that would prevent trade. If China attacks Taiwan, we should be able to produce our own chips. We should be able to function with as little dependence on other countries as possible.

    In no way do tariffs fix that. You invest in yourself, slapping your friends because they're better than you at something is really fucking stupid.

  • My Xperia z3c from 2014 would be perfectly fine to use right now if Google didn't absolutely bloat the crap out of their products and it had an easily replaceable battery. If companies would just support their products for longer or release the sources when it's out of support i probably would have skipped several phone upgrades. But that's probably exactly why they don't.

    RP2040 uses

    Alright meshers, I've been playing around with meshtastic for some time now and I've ended up with a good number of devices. I'm mostly in the rakwireless boat, with a pair of heltecs.

    I have two RP2040 (rak11310) units that I just can't come up with a good use for. They use less power than a heltec on full blast, but don't have Wi-Fi or Bluetooth. If you disable Bluetooth and Wi-Fi on the heltec and turn on power saving, the heltec ends up using less power for what I can see as the same capabilities as the RP2040.

    So, what can I put these units to use for? The processor is definitely more powerful than the NRF52 boards, but meshtastic doesn't seem to need any more than the NRF52 has to offer. With power saving, the heltecs can perform equally well with less power, while also having a more powerful processor in case it's needed.
