I’m sure digikey.com has what you need. Ships all over the world, they’re pretty quick, have a huge stock, and doesn’t cost a fortune.

One of those look like a JST connector. I don’t remember the ame of the other end, but it’s pretty common too.

…from Battlestar Galactica. Sums my average mood.

Call them. Yes, it’s probably gonna be awkward, but well worth it.

Back in the day I memorized the lyrics and tried to sing along to the hardware story inventory selection part. Since no human have lungs big enough, a friend and I learned to alternate back and forth so we could cover the entire thing.

I was bored as hell, sitting in a hotel room with literally nothingbto do for three days (waiting to get my passport back from visa processing), so I looked up the phone number of someone I used to know before we moved to opposite ends of the country years ago. I ended up getting an invite to a discord, and we now have two nights per week set aside for gaming together. Not just him, but the others on the discord too, so I’m not as socially isolated anymore.

And when there’s no gaming going on, just hanging out in VoIP is still nice. I might be baking stuff in blender or perl, while someone else is painting minifigs or planning a D&D campaign. It’s not easy having a social life when I’m a family man with four kids, living in the middle of nowhere with no shared interests with anyone nearby. This is my remedy.

One would think it at least involved some enthusiasm

Eh, not really. I was very close to buying a BMW X5 instead, but I couldn’t find a 7 seater nearby. I don’t feel enthusiasm towards the Volvo brand in general, I just happen to have had two cars that I’ve really liked. The logo could’ve said Lada for all I care.

Lol no

I might be curious about the car itself, just to figure out how it may or may not differ from my own, based on the year it was made, but I don’t give two shits about the driver. I generally don’t like other people, and car brand ownership makes no difference in this equation.

Used to drive a Tank 1995 Volvo 940, and more than a few times did someone approach me to talk to a fellow “vintage Volvo enthusiast”.

Now that I drive a 2019 Volvo XC90 T8, people assume that I am a Volvo enthusiast based on the fact that I’ve had two Volvos in a row. The truth is that I really liked the durable tank that was my old car, and I really like the comfort of my new car. They are not similar in any shape or form. They just happen to both be Volvos.

Well, it belongs to Google, so I assume they use it for logging which addresses do which lookups, and correlate this with their other fingerprinting databases. I very much doubt they run a public DNS just to be nice.

Put a banana in your eeaaaaaar!

I always used 4.2.2.2 and 4.2.2.1. Not sure how privacy friendly they are, but probably miles more than 8.8.8.8

43, here. Based on anecdotal evidence I’m disputing your second statement, and confirming the third.

By the way, imma be a crane driver when I grow up.

I don’t know for sure, but I think so. And I’m a naturally curious person about these things, so I try to frame it in a way different from their looks, such as “That’s an interesting name… where’s it from?”.

Yup. Another aspect of this is that I sometimes find myself in a conversation with someone (it’s happened here on Lemmy too) about something technical. I might tell them about an approach that I might use, or my preference, mostly just making conversation, and the reply isn’t conversational at all, it’s argumentative and sometimes even confrontational or combative.

Luckily Lemmy allows for tagging these people so that I won’t bother making conversation with these again. I usually tag these people after shutting down the “discussion” with something like “No, I will not address what you said. I was making conversation, you were after a debate that you could win. I am not interested in typing just to feed your ego, so I see no point in resuming this thread”

This, plus it helps to keep in mind that it’s not your responsibility to educate people even if they’re objectively wrong. Nor is it your responsibility to change the mind of people with garbage opinions.

When someone is argumentative, they are rarely after an actual conversation, or even a debate. They’re after an interaction they can win.
They are not entitled to your engagement.

I am by no metric an expert, hell I am barely proficient, as I found a recipe online after I got back from Malaysia, but it’s somewhat simple. It just takes a lot of time and a lot of ingredients that isn’t easy to find where I live.
