interesting to note that the worker has been issued a unique marked and *branded* uniform (I can understand the high vis as thats standard safety gear for working in the street but I wonder if CCTV ops are trained to check the uniform matches up (or there is even a camera in the billboard to record maintenance) in case "subvertisers" get at this?
@penguin42 @th indeed, and in some bits of the Netherlands (more in the rural areas) there's already an entire subculture of middle aged and even older men dressing up as maintenance staff and infiltrating pirate radio transmitters into all sorts of random tall structures (including mobile phone masts and high voltage electricity pylons!)
@penguin42 @th i totally get why he does this! when i was using a rotated portrait monitor, it'd boot up sideways, and try as i might i could not make myself move the mouse down by moving the trackball's ball left... visual orientation is important!
@th@social.v.st •••
is that a keyboard
is he literally going to troubleshoot that computer on the middle of the street
he even has a logitech K400.
I know, I also have a logitech k400 exactly for this kind of crap
@hj@shigusegubu.club @th@social.v.st it could be worse
most screens i see over here have windows instead
i know this because they're always erroring out and/or showing the shell
@th@social.v.st he's holding the keyboard sideways
@th I like the way he's holding the keyboard at 90d; I guess that does make his up/down buttons correspond.
