It’s both stupid expensive and the jobs don’t pay enough anymore. I can make the same salary as an engineer working a trade or any other white collar job.
I’m sure the growing distrust in science and general stupidity didn’t help either.
Awfully reminiscent of the trouble the NASDAP had trying to draw the line between Jews and non-Jews. It made them look like fucking idiots, and I hope to hell history treats the GOP the same way.
That’s what we said about COVID and absolutely nothing improved fundamentally.
Literally in the article brief and in the second paragraph: “Electronics manufactures must from Saturday fit all devices sold in the EU with USB-C charger ports…”
I’m more disappointed that this is “news” than anything else
I transferred to a new college and learned the first week of class that they required a few vaccinations I was missing. No problem, the on campus health center can provide them. I confirm with them that they accept my insurance, so I go get the shots.
A few months later, I get a bill in the mail for over $3000. Apparently the health center wasn’t in-network, so I have no idea what they meant by “we accept your insurance.” I layer learned that if I had driven 10 minutes west across the state border, there was an in-network office where those two vaccinations would’ve been completely covered.
I still haven’t paid a penny towards that bill, fuck them. I get daily phone calls from an unknown number, it’s probably collections, but I don’t know for sure since I never answer it. This was years ago and my credit score never took a hit. I’d rather die than reward these parasites with my money.
I’m pretty sure I have a tumor growing on my hip too. I’d get it checked, but between student loans, insane cost of living, and rising costs of literally everything else, I can’t afford to right now. I’m a childless engineer with “great” health insurance and a roommate, so I’m relatively well off. I have no idea why shit hasn’t boiled over yet. Makes me want to depose some CEOs too.
They’re referring to the white buildup that happens from the aluminum in antiperspirant. Deodorant without aluminum (and therefore not an antiperspirant) won’t give this buildup.
Seriously, from the bottom of my heart, fuck you Apple. Eat shit and die.
So like half a tic tac and a stick of bubblegum. Got it
Sure, but only fourth grade logic is required to see why that’s wrong.
Trump: 50,000,000 votes
Kamala: 50,000,000 votes
Other candidates: 1,000 votes + 3,000 votes + 7,000 votes + …
When an primitive voting scheme is used that says “winner takes all and you can only vote for one candidate,” a vote for any other candidate is essentially the same as not voting unless the masses gather behind a single third party (which will never happen, especially with the internet).
A voting scheme more sophisticated that allows people to pick multiple candidates, in something like a ranked list for example, would make third party votes worth something. But that disrupts the status quo and doesn’t help career politicians, so we’ll never see that unless heads start rolling.
At absolute most, they risk losing the portion of users who use ad blockers because of this decision. They’ll certainly lose less, but are practically guaranteed to not lose more.
They probably determined that the additional ad revenue from those who used to use ad blockers was more than the revenue they’d lose from people leaving.
I don’t agree with it, but I bet that’s happening here. Personally, I’d be surprised if 20% or more of Chrome users have an ad blockers installed. Even fewer would use Revanced or the like.
They say you need to be home all day to make bread and now I see why! Lol
Thanks for the thorough and thoughtful response, we’ll try it out next weekend!
Most (hopefully all) computers in industry running outdated OSs are disconnected from the internet for that exact reason.
My girlfriend and I are on a huge sourdough kick right now, and we’d love to start making it ourselves. Do you have a recipe you’d recommend? Any tips and tricks you’ve learned from experience?
ChatGPT apparently lol
Why though? I thought impedance of the human body is lower at 50/60 Hz than at DC.
I haven’t, but I’m also an electrical engineer so I’m pretty familiar with the issue haha
Fun thing you can do, is open your mouse and look up the PN of your switch on DigiKey. Filter for components with the same package/footprint, then sort by actuation force. Get a few different ones and try them out. They sell good brands there.
I play a lot of shooters, so my left click is real easy to press, and my right click is ~3x harder.
If you have basic soldering skills and care enough to do this, the mouse buttons can be replaced for less than a dollar each. Not that this excuses Logitech’s poor QA, but my g502 g305 will last damn near forever if I keep replacing the switches like I have been.
You severely overestimate how much the average person cares about their own privacy.
