And you had to have the audio cable to connect the cdrom drive if you wanted to listen to an audio CD. It was an interesting time.

Most power line adaptors say to keep it on the same circuit. The one I have is running a small VoIP phone and I don’t have issues with call quality.
$10-15 will get you an outlet tester at just about every home improvement store. You plug it in and the three big LEDs light up and you compare it with the sticker on the device. Get one with a GFCI tester built in, when you press the button it will short to ground and if your receptacle has GFCI protection or is on a GFCI protected circuit should trip the GFCI protection.
The delta-p videos are wild. The most popular being a crab sucked through a crack in a pipe, not a hole, but a crack no more than mm or two wide.
Her name was Abigail Taylor. She was 6.
Truly a heart-wrenching story. https://abbeyshope.org/abbeys-story/
Can you imagine being the inspector who missed this?
Reading a few articles. It sounds like this was inspected and passed before people got into the pool.
While there are significant regulations around intake pipes, including grates and/or having multiple intakes so that no single one can be completely obstructed to create a suction scenario where someone can be trapped, this particular pipe was found to be plumbed on the wrong side of the pump. It was sucking in water when it was supposed to be ejecting water.
This is serious for the hotel chain, franchisee, installer/contractor, and inspector. This had to fail so many checks to have occurred. It wasn’t a chance occurrence for someone to be sucked in and seriously harmed or killed with the way this was plumbed; it was a matter of time when someone was going to be seriously injured or killed.
Truly a tragedy, and I cannot for the life of me imagine the pain that family is going through right now.
There’s no way we’re hiring a white man for this role. They’d be very careful how they’d message that to agents.
Furthering that, they use the word agent. Specifically referring actors.
Jalapeno rings at del taco.
Sliced jalapeno, breaded and fried. Served with a ranch-esqe sauce.
Simple and so fucking delicious.
Police drones. Surveillance “for your protection”
Fuck them!
Fallacy is a fault in logic, not a falsehood.
Post hoc ergo propter hoc (after it therefore because of it) is a fallacy. Or an appeal to authority is a fallacy.
Why would we need open source instead of just removing drm?
Most people aren’t going to compile old games for new hardware. That’s not an easy task.
Abandonware is a thing, and there are some websites dedicated to it. GOG has done some great stuff releasing drm free games. So long as we have drm free, we can always build emulators to run what can’t natively run on modern systems.
I work IT for my day job managing a datacenter and cloud infrastructure.
I host mostly Plex, home assistant, and immich. Immich has its data backed up, I don’t care about Plex data. If it all dies, so be it.
I have a server coloed that houses some websites and email, plus some random other things I’ve setup and tested. It’s got backups, and downtime is fine.
If my self hosted stuff dies, it doesn’t matter. Nothing in my life ultimately relies on it.
Mk2 is my favorite. My dad had one when I was growing up. My brother then had a mr-s until he totaled it. Now I’ve got a MR-S as well. I love the car. A little under powered at times, but I almost never have the top up. In the mk2, I’d probably have the t-tops off the whole time as well.
Honestly, worth it. The cars are so much fun.

Refrigerated or frozen items can’t be restocked, there’s no real way to tell how long they’ve been out of refridgeration. Hit em in the pocket books.
What? Are you saying you dad and all his friends used to use muzzle loaders before the ar-15? We’ve had bolt action at least since WW1 and semi-automatics have been common since WW2. There is no way you dad and his friends had muzzle loaders and only changed to AR-15 because of the popular crowd.
Or are you trying to say bolt action, but don’t know firearms? Because most of the old hunting rifles were old military surplus rifles largely made popular by familiarity of those who used similar in military service and the high availability of rifle rounds in common calibers.
Things like the Civilian Marksmanship Program that got old M1 Garands into civilian hands and the ubiquitous amount of 30-06 ammo that was easily accessible to hunters all over the country lead the previous era of gun owners. The current era of vets are familiar with the m4a1, but thats not available to civilians. But the ar-15 is similar so veterans tend to pick up the ar-15.
The ar-15 is also highly module. It can be rechambered in almost any caliber, has many attachments for accessories, can have the barrel, muzzle, and stock changed making it a favorite of anyone that finds a hobby in firearms. If you picked up a complete ar-15, you can change essentially everything but the lower receiver and have it be the “same” gun.
That’s why it’s popular and why so many people have one. Since it’s so popular and so common, it gets used in shootings. Not because of the traits you listed, but because the most dangerous gun is the one the criminal already has.
The problem is that most electric stove tops duty cycles this way. It’s terrible for low temperature applications in something that doesn’t have the mass to retain heat. And something that does have the mass takes a long time to hit those low temps unless you start with longer time on duty cycles. They also suck for precise heat control.
You can’t use a resister anywhere else in the circuit because it would be wildly inefficient that way. The only option might be regulating voltage. But that’s easier said than done.
I don’t think electric is necessarily bad. But it’s choosing the right tool for the job and both should probably be in a range instead of having it be one or the other.
Yet somehow I still love Married with Children.
