The cooling fan isn't supposed to be an audible "microwave is on" alert. That's not its design function. Perhaps the actual audible alert on yours should be louder.

No doubt it was some combination of lower power, physically larger or simply more prone to failure. Do you suppose the designers go to the trouble of a cool-down timer just for the hell of it?

If "the operating noise" is the cooling fan for the magnetron, it keeps going when the time is up to cool it down. Mine does the same, but actually says "COOL" on the screen when it does so.

Right. The root cause is that Internet is a Dark Ocean, and any honest little fish that pipes up saying it would like to buy or sell a used iPhone is likely to be swiftly eaten by a shark.

There's a lesson there too about how solving problems is often easier once you know it can be solved.

Land taxes are certainly in use around the world. My "rates" which fund the local government are based on the "unimproved land value". If you are unhappy with the land value determination (presumably because you feel i

That reduces your efficiency. The same amount of total heat energy is "worth less" at 500C than at 2000C.

Conventional trains that run under wires can also dump excess braking energy into the overhead. That seems feasible even if you had to have your resistive heating elements somewhere outside the tunnel system.

Back when I was in high school and landlines were still a thing, we used to prank our friends this way sometimes.

This has a similarity to the original story here, in that the original sounded like: "They behaved a lot like a scammer would, but I also totally expect my real bank to behave like a scammer would" .

Those programs weren't "willfully wrong". That status quo is that whatever you wrote would be potentially mixed into the pool, but not counted as adding any kind of unpredictability unless the ioctl() was used to specificall

On a separate note, I'm not sure I understood the problem with crediting writes to random as contributing that many entropy bits when the write happens by Admin & the pool isn't yet initialized. It seems like it would largely

Insufficient entropy is the root cause of this: https://factorable.net/weakkeys12.extended.pdf which is still happening: https://www.quintessencelabs.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/...

I don't believe your assertion about how "the law is set up" is correct, if you mean to imply that altering the operation of code running on your device is proscribed. Where it falls foul of the law is when you start sending

That makes perfect sense though, because presumably the system store would affect all profiles. Sure the app can ignore the user CA store, but it can ignore the system one too and just bring its own CA roots. You certainly still get the &

You don't need a factory reset to enrol in MDM, you can create a managed "work" profile and leave the unmanaged user profile alone.

Although every mildly surprising authentic image is also now greeted by inevitable shouts of "FAKE!". In a world of easy image trickery, people stopped believing any image they didn't want to believe.

They may not be moving around to explore so much as to keep their solar system safe. Galactic orbits are far more chaotic than the sedate stable orbits within the solar system - stars closely approach each other on a somewhat regular basis.

Agreed they're still English. It's a little interesting how many from both sides of the list are loanwords, though - on the "male" side there's examples like howitzer , aileron , strafe and katana . I wonder i
