@moonoffsite @lambadalambda @dtluna Websockets in general are a good idea with a completely shit implementation. -

@verius @nerthos How bad do you have to be that China doesn't even want to use the things they're manufacturing for you? -

No one but the usual shitheads are going to point out that the 300 million dollar loss Intel had this year is a strangely similar number to them claiming they hired 300 million dollars worth of "diverse" employees? I mean, frankly I believe they actually doled out that much for diversity hires as much as I believe in bigfoot, but surely their PR guys told them to sh… -

@archaeme Sorry, what I was working on took much longer than I thought it would.
Try this:
DELETE FROM `hubsub` WHERE `callback` LIKE "%gorf.club%"
Then make sure you resubscribe ofc -

Standards Council of Canada now. -

Canadian Standards Agency ... not to be confused with the US Consumer Standards Agency, which is the useless thing letting people sell uninsulated ungrounded devices in the US for your Darwinian pleasure.
I think they renamed it something else because of that confusion a while ago but I can't remember what it was. -

@nerthos It's still a good idea to have a ground pin for these devices (and CSA recommends this), because what happens otherwise is if at any point the insulation fails, is that chassis just became live at mains voltage. That makes for a bad time if your body becomes part of the return path. -

@verius @nerthos A desktop computer is less harmful grounded through the case because it's usually sitting on the ground, but a computer grounded through the case becomes 100% less safe if it's not, hi laptops, or cases with those little rubber feet. Here in Canada (or back home in britain) it is an electrical standards requirement any device that is not double insu… -

@nerthos As much as people go on about China having really bad electrical standards for their exported products, the reason they ARE so bad in most cases, is those products are products they've made for export to the United States. In FACT, in some cases these devices don't even meet China's own standards, and get marked "For Export Only" - that's how bad some of them are. -

@moonman @takeshitakenji @panjoozek This has many caveats though (the local user won't have complete data most of the time for instance) -

@verius @nerthos Grounding a non-insulated device to the chassis is actually very common in industrial applications, but that is because the case itself will be "bonded" (electrically connected) to the facility's grounding bar or other method of grounding, so it is harmless. It is improper to ground to the chassis if the chassis is not bonded and this would not pass… -

@nerthos Yeah, that bar is what is used for grounding in TTS. We just call it the grounding bar here. -

@nerthos I believe your part of the world uses what is called here the TT-S system. -

@verius @nerthos They're describing a device that is grounding throught he case. The amperage being passed is probably not harmful, but it should be grounding through the ground pin of a supply back to the house grounding.
