In Britsh Columbia, Canada we get 5 Personal Emergency days as paid leave, and 3 PEL unpaid. For somebody in generally good health this is more than adequate, for somebody with health issues you would have to go to doc and get short term disability leave for extended days off

Paying for commute time for regular workers is not going to happen, for many many decades you getting to work is your own issue…thus why we find a place near highway access or near transit. asking a company to pay travel means they will just hire somebody that lives close by

Same, my manager contacts me a handful of times throughout the year, the rest of the time he trusts I’m doing what I am tasked to do. We had a company wide meeting at head office requiring travel for everyone, the schedule was on my kid’s birthday. I conveyed that I would be missing the bday, and they shifted meeting a few days to accommodate. Not all corporations are heartless slave drivers

Your own link says he was ok saying it as is. While Berliner is a donut it also is someone from Berlin.

Yep, i agree. patents are stupid, but not everyone is convinced of open sourcing everything

While that is an option for anyone, its not something I wanted. Mine is cube with 200mm fan. The lowest setting is fine for the thermals, but if I’m video processing I will toggle to high, but for voice over or a phone call comes in I drop it down low. The random up and down of the fan if left to its own device creates a noise I don’t want to deal with.

Lol. It is. Before my first coffee.

I have 2 of these. One gives perfect results, one seems to drop off after lots of data transfer. They look alnoat identical, but one is name brand and ine ia probaboy a cheap chinese copy. Wiring is probably sub-par

Mine has an 3 position exrernal fan switch for manual control, cable comes out those holes. Also useful for direct header usb that you run an extender cable out to another device.

Yep, i always type the line and take a break, and check the drives in another terminal first, before committing, but the web is full of people “argg I just dd the wrong drive”.

Possibly, the heart pumps but your vascular system has to return it all and it may feel different. But could also be the reduction of vein size as blood pressure ia dropping that you are feeling

It is but they change…so becarefilul with dd LOL

To me it seems they followed the hdd UUID style, rather than sda0 or hda0 that can change at boot you now have a fixed UUID to work with. I can see this being important on larger server networks

Does your headlight work juat daytime Running Light is not? on my Honda it is same bulb just has dual wattage modes

Could just be vascular flow from the motion. like when you work out hard with a muscle group, the area will gain blood and turn flush for a while.

They are stupid, but helped inventors recoup development costs. It gets abused now, especially with patent trolls. The invention here moved TP from a roll you had to cut or tear, to self tearing segments with enough attached at center that it pulled roll forward…smart at the time…we take this idea of perforated sheets for granted now

The patent was the tp roll but more so the angular serations that terminate short of the center, so a tearable roll of paper rather than a strip role that had to be torn manually or cut

It has been well documented that the act of hearing the letter, thinking about the letter and doing a physical motion to create the letter provides better connections for the learning and retaining. Same for writing full cursive words. It will get dropped totally at some point, hopefully future generations always have OCR to read new found historic manuscripts. Schools have moved to keyboarding skills and it has an impact on learning.

Thanks.

I always shy away from the ad hype of products, I have been in different industries, and have seen that a $ product vs $$$ product is sometimes identical innards, and a refreshed outer…which didn’t cost the manufacturer anything extra.

I have tried to explain this to my spouse, but she will still gravitate to buying the more expensive; equating cost with quality
