I made a bet once, claiming that a cellphone wouldn't work in a microwave (obviously, with the microwave not operating) because it's a Faraday cage. We'd get a call going, put the phone in the microwave and close the hatch. S

We put the toddler to bed at 8PM, which leaves us with 3 to 4 hours of time at home, during which we have to avoid making much noise. At the same time, I'm too exhausted to do anything productive (actively learning new stuff or coding

I now have a P14s, as a weird compromise between what I wanted (14", under 2kg), company requirements for the size class (Lenovo with Intel i7 or i9 and NVIDIA discrete graphics), and what the supplier had available with short notice.

Yeah. All the PM stuff with Ubuntu and T480 was a bit of a disaster, there was issues at least with Thunderbolt and NVIDIA discrete graphics eating up the battery. IIRC in the end I think I just found a way to completely disable both. The T

I had some success with T480 sleep battery drain by finding a bios option to turn off all USB when sleeping. Went from empty overnight to can sleep over weekend.

Ubuntu just couple a weeks ago pushed a kernel update to 20.04 LTS that 100% broke resuming from suspend on my 2020 Thinkpad (Intel graphics driver hang, no surprise there). I had to switch to edge kernel to get it back working. Edit: yes,

I don't think there's a high horse here. It's just how life works. If you've truly managed your early twenties so well, that looking back now with more perspective you don't see anything you could have handled much

Personally I don't think there's any machine learning needed for this (but who knows what they used). If I were to build a replica, my approach would be to grab a decent amount of suitable photos, manually mark the pointed areas i

Yup. I occasionally get earwax impactions from wax build up, then try to use a q-tip for a quick remedy. 75% of time I manage to make things worse.

I see you're not taking my comment at face value, either =). I'm simply pointing out that particular familiar pattern that GP's opening and your defence to it so perfectly matches, whether it's intentional or by accident

I don't feel shame for shaming unjust downvoters (that said, I've upvoted your comment, too). A short googling for for "history of workplace safety in the us" reveals that unions had a hand in at least that. Probably in

Fortunately the public doesn't have unmoderated access to ICBMs. It's also notable that the USA has also tolerated the Kim regime, because it gives them an excuse to be present in force in South Korea. It's not like the CIA c

I suppose the issue could be alleviated by having the tunnel know it's payload is IP packets, keep a reasonably short buffer, and drop payload packets from the queue after a short timeout, e.g. 200ms. So essentially, the tunnel needs t
