Thank you for what you do, it's absolutely necessary and we need people like you. I wouldn't for a moment say it's not worth doing.

I don't blame them for not wanting to do construction. I ran fiber optic cable on poles, underground, into buildings for a long time. Not quite construction, but also not easy work. Pay was terrible, I was young, and they took advantage of me. for almost 10 years. I've roofed, I've framed, I've been a programmer, I've been a network engineer. ALL of those jobs were basically the same in that regard, decent pay sure... But the hours required, the recovery I had to go through. Nothing is worth that. I'm sad that I took this long to figure that out, I missed a lot of good times with my kiddo. I can never get that back.

That's the same thing that's happening to all of us at this point. There's NO reason there isn't enough money in the pipeline to get things built that need to be built, paying people a wage that they can live on, and without eating nearly all of their time 'off' work. If you have to take so much time to recover that you feel like it eats into your personal job, your work life balance is way out of wack.

I don't want to sound like I think your career isn't valid, or isn't important. Every single person that's a part of making our lives work deserves to get paid well. No matter their job. There are so many resources available to the world we could all have better lives, but then a small group of slime would have fewer 0's in their bank account. Otherwise, they wouldn't even notice.

To speak to the other side, there are a number of people that thrive in that environment. My dad was one of them. He's at the end of his life, dying of Parkinson's and now seeing the relationship I have with my kiddo. I can see the pain in his face. He wants to have had that with me, but decided that money was more important. He's going to die a multi millionaire, I hope those dollars comfort him.

That took a turn, I'm sorry. But it feels good to get out so I'm leaving it.

You see that none of that is a good thing right?

I don't want to work a job that destroys my work life balance for any pay. Doesn't matter how much. Nobody should have to give up their life for money.

Young people are more likely to want to take care of themselves and not have the toxic mindset you and I were brought up with. They aren't just taking it on the chin, or putting in their time, or whatever bullshit platitudes my generation and older like to sling at young workers or those not willing to eat shit for peanuts.

You are just perpetuating that toxic mindset, in servitude of the moneyed class.

It's criminal this is buried as far as it is.

Can you expand on what you mean by Firefox can't display large directories? Curious to see this for myself with FF and a couple of forks I'm playing with.

I just woke up everyone in my house with a giggle fit thanks to you. Yes weed is involved.

That was amazing.

Thank you, I'll have a look and see if I can suss it out.

No, I'm using an audio interface over USB connected via balanced TRS to a set of monitors. All copper, no wireless.

Sadly that wasn’t the issue, I did have a 6.10 kernel option but the delay is exactly the same in the previous kernel.

Right on, thank you for the info

That sounds like a pretty good candidate, I'll know in a couple of hours. Thank you!

Both, I miss the first bit of audio, and when it plays it's not synced to video in video sources.

Its not just in Firefox, even the startup sound is being truncated.

Any music player as well, first bit of audio is gone and it plays approximately the same little bit of time after I stop playing.

We're working on getting a microphone that small, so they aren't intimidated and will allow themselves to be recorded.

I'm really curious where you were that you had that experience? I was brought up with the thank you reflex and have lived all over the states and have never had a situation of note arise from saying thank you too much.

I fully intend to do my part.

Thank you for this. I see we have a lot to add where I am.

I have no idea what the fuck you just did to my brain, but I want my money back.

I sleep with a descent mk2i every night...

Subbed and hoping to learn something, am a complete novice who suddenly has a lot of time on their hands.
