Container for smaller objects.
IEC C13 socket with C14 locking plugs. Already ubiquitous in data center facilities. Rated for voltages between 110 and 250, so it works for any country’s common household current.
Tools you’re not sure you’ll need. Harbor Freight tools are super cheap and flimsy, but may be the right choice if you’re not using them often.
If you find yourself using a cheap tool all the time and hating the quality of it, then it’s time to buy something better.
Science exists to figure out what really, actually does work. Smart people were still figuring that out at the turn of the last century.
Most smart people have figured it out now. Dumb people are still not testing their ideas.
This is the biggest waste of words next to a “Trump-said” article.
Laptop makers once put pop-out mice on laptops. They were horrible. Toting a wired mouse around was a pain in the ass too. There’s a reason touchpads took over. It doesn’t mean people don’t know how to work a computer.
Tbh most of the time I’m using my Wintendo, but Linux is better imo for dev. PyCharm is a nice IDE, and all the Linux tools I love like vim are there and fully functional.
Cool. Can we shut down the stadium owners’ tax break scams next, especially since they’ll be flush with lots of new revenue?
Banner ads, not for a long long time, at least not intentionally.
Last week I needed parts for my snowblower, and Amazon was not helpful finding what I needed, so I googled the info I had. A competitor’s ad appeared as the first result. I was skeptical as hell as I clicked on it - my experience has always been similar to yours - but they had a comprehensive, easy-to-use database of parts, with diagrams, part numbers, in-stock notes, and cost all on the same page. No hacky website, just the right information presented well. Wound up giving them the business.
I guess not everyone is a rabid, cheating, lying SOB. Just many people. Lol
The only two risks stopping humans from waging nuclear war is A> the likelihood that the humans who start it would lose power over their people and B> cleanup of affected territory is incredibly expensive.

Anything that maximizes embarrassment or cringe. Can’t watch most Will Ferrell or Borat. Ugh, it makes me so uncomfortable.
Commodore VIC-20 with a tape drive, modem, and terminal software. My father used it to take distance learning classes from the local community college, learning COBOL of all things, back in 1982. He unfortunately never went anywhere with programming. I used it way more than he did to write my first programs in BASIC. I was 5 years old.
Now I build and run MPLS networks, code in 5 other languages, play lots of video games, etc.
Space Engineers in dev mode also permits player coded behavior. The player may write scripts in C# and apply them to game objects. Scripts run in a sandboxed .NET environment.
Robot Odyssey, an adventure game played by programming robots to help you. Still nothing like it.

In 2011 I was aghast when I learned a popular keycard / biometric system used FTP to pull down its cleartext list of acceptable keys from the server.
The username was something like ADMIN and the password was PASS.
And no, that wasn’t the FTP command; that was the password.
So I’m not surprised that there are still problems with these devices.
