@Kels_316@aus.social Well, I'm a nerd so I'd have to explain that once matter hits the event horizon it's moving at a significant fraction of the speed of light, and sound isn't fast enough to escape because everything is now accelerating towards the black hole, including the matter required to have noise. So no, it's not noisy. If in theory you could chuck a microphone in there without it being instantly destroyed then yes, I imagine it's very noisy as every molecule is ripped apart for the fraction of a second it is able to function.

@Kels_316 I feel overqualified for that, though perhaps it needs a bit more subtlety that redoing Gordon Ramsey's
"What are you?",
"I'm an idiot sandwich" routine.

@hacks4pancakes... that time we had a massive explosion at a coal power plant because it was hooked up out of phase, the instrumentation was broken because it was all attached to a switchboard that instantly melted and the secondary effects were ignored because no one answered the phone for half an hour.
RCA in Australia hits different, our executive class can't be made to understand.

@ludicity@mastodon.sprawl.club I can think of several ways that's possible. None of them are good, or sane.

@mattblaze@federate.social beating will continue until morale improves. I am honestly shocked that anyone thinks it is possible, let alone likely to bomb your way to peace. Thinking about how Iran is structured, with highly decentrised militia just makes it more unlikely.

@carnage4life@mas.to I came to software via MSP sysadmin, I've been treated as cattle at every opportunity. That I have given out few free passes to employers to treat me like crap says more about my talent and luck than it does about them.
Software engineering had a brief time in the sun but for me it's just Thursday.

@carnage4life@mas.to When you elect based on the ability to project gravitas into a camera this is just the cost of doing business.
Journalism arguably failed some time before journalists think it did.

@Kels_316 I found out that the internet agrees that I can tie a truckies hitch, in stark contrast to the wildly complex versions I've seen.

@NewtonMark the US wargames totally predicted it, which says a lot about how the IDF thinks about the enemy, and a lot about the fact that the US just joined in anyway.

@vmstan @mikesiegel I learned about the cage tool the week after a 6 rack strip and replace datacenter move. Gutted.

@UweHalfHand@norcal.social @ludicity@mastodon.sprawl.club they existed before LLMs but maybe the fraction has increased.

@flargh@mastodon.social That buyout was financed with a lot of debt, I suspect clownshoes level of thinking from whoever holds the debt. Certainly the pattern from every buyout I've been party to.

@brendangregg@aus.social Absolutely not an answer during a crisis. Just thinking of different ways to prepare that align with requirements.

@brendangregg@aus.social Yes, and in places where security says no, the fallback plan is a mountable filesystem with tools?

@Unixbigot@aus.social The IVR systems do explicitly react to what's said and the inferred mood but rarely at that point in the system.

@TindrasGrove@infosec.exchange @da_667@infosec.exchange Ive seen a diode created with two LC gbics and a media converter with the ethernet port sealed. The media converter's job is to convince the low side that its actually plugged in to a network.
Hilarious when the media converter power supply is nearly dead and the port starts flapping.

@ludicity@mastodon.sprawl.club yep. They even had a helper doing the typing. Their inability to actually shorten their answers and poor engagement was what lost them the gig and the tell.

@GamingWithEars@mastodon.stickbear.me If you had no money, and no idea about web hosting or DNS or anything else, how would you advertise a thing?
