I had the masochistic pleasure of welding some heavy stuff with an oxy-acetylene torch today. I guess in theory it's literally the same as TIG, but in practise I found that you can't see the puddle, you can't see the bead you're trying to make, and you get hot sparks down your shirt. I've also kind of learned to pamper myself with pulsed TIG whenever possible and shooting at full power all the time is kind of stressful, you gots to keep moving -

I wonder if they have any of these available at the surplus outlets, very cute and probably a good fit for the roads around here too. I would like one with a door though -

@hj I recently got a new radio alarm clock and it's been keeping me up at night how it syncs the clock automatically. I know it's not NTP because it's not some IOT piece of shit, but the instruction manual doesn't go into a lot of detail about it, and it's some cheap chink thing so information isn't really available on the internet. I literally just took it out of the box, plugged it into the wall and within the time I had read in the manual how to adjust the clock, it had already synced it. To my measurements it's accurate to within a few hundredths of a second so it's not really possible that they just set it at the factory and it has a little battery somewhere. I'm worried it's gonna stab me in my sleepother than that, all of my non-computer clocks need manual adjustment because I'm pic related and every time I feel like I have more clocks than I remembered -

@hj they sent me a photo and the box is big enough for me to go live inside, I guess I can't complain too much. -

the jewish self-preservation instinct is so strong that I wouldn't be surprised if it was to negotiate some kind of alliance. -

@Ricotta I keep hearing about this but to me it just sounds very amusing that people couldn't point out such a big country. I mean I can't place all the remnants of yugoslavia from memory, but I think this is a bit different. don't ameriburgers have geography class in school? -

@shmibs @hj @thendrix I of course can't really imagine what it's like, but I think I'd feel very alone. here the cultural feeling of belonging and 'oneness', so to say, is very strong. -

I myself am rather fond of the idea of the nation state; I think each people should have their own place to call home and poke their nose in each other's business as little as possible. so I think stomping on your neighbor is bad manners. gathering many nationalities under the same flag has never ended well for anyone, neither has the development of vagabond peoples. if it was just about "bringing his people back home" I'd be more sympathetic but there are clearly grander plans at play. -

@hj I think it's actually very simple if you're not too autistic about it, I could talk to any person for 5 minutes and tell you whether or not they're a Finn. these groups are largely still intact all over the world, international movement of people has destroyed relatively little of it in the large scale of things, so far. the exception of course being the abomination that is america. so very little would have to be changed, it's not like every people is diaspora'd all over the place.what comes to bigger nations swallowing smaller nations and violations of the sovereignty of others, that is of course the violator's own damn business. they're trading the potential profit for a foreign people now living in their region, and all the trouble that comes with it. if they keep them, it's a burden. if they genocide them, it's also a lot of work. once this happens a few times it becomes unbearable and the system resets itself. it is an ever repeating cycle throughout history. nonetheless i think it's a stupid and bad thing to do, but the reality of it is that no one asks me what i think. -

@thendrix @hj people will naturally emulate the concept of the nation state and yearn to be with their own, and with enough separation and autonomy I guess it can work to a degree, effectively it's the same thing that I described but in a smaller scale. the trouble begins when you try to govern all of the different sorts of people as one, or things start heading too far in the "melting pot" direction, both of which america has its share of.
