Yeah, I have had the same issue with my jabra headset for years on a cal digit TS3. It goes away if I plug it into a separate USB port on the MacBook. My guess as to the problem is the bandwidth allocation and prioritization on the thunde

Secondary DNS is great for failover. I run dual piholes in a primary-secondary setup for that purpose. The only issue you will run into is if your router can’t pass two DNS server addresses, or your client machines don’t know how to handle

This read like “get off my lawn you damn kids!” Also, I don’t think people would want to waste all that time making 12 trips a day whether they care about the price of gas or not. Source: kid from the 80’s.

Agree it's not as easy as simple as storing wood in warehouses, but the issues with sand have to do with a more permanent shortage in global supply and are not directly comparable to lumber markets. https://www.cnbc.com/

I like the idea of stateless (or at least not having to manage the state as in the case of CF) but I’d hate to see the performance times for API calls if one needed to do a search for tags to conduct a CRUD. Particularly if this were a mul

Cloudformation is not the state of your architecture. It tracks the state. A very big difference. You can still make changes to resources within stacks outside CF, and Cloudformation can still be very unaware of the drift.

If you want to call a Bradley a tank, I don’t think that matters. But if it’s carrying troops to disgorge at a location then it is now no longer a tank but closer to an IFV or APC. It doesn’t change the definition of what a tank is.

Vehicles without rotatable turrets were generally called Assault Guns or Tank Destroyers during WW2. Most definitions of tanks rely on a heavily armored, tracked platform and a fully rotatable turret with armament capable of killing other s

Silly question: Does it matter that they have visible rust? If the performance is the same and it’s just a veneer with no effect on ability, who gives a damn? I had a CO who once told me: “I trust the guy who’s got mud on his boots vs the o

“Well, they are all chemical engines. We have no chemical engines that would work well for launching.” I mean that’s what chemical engines are for. You aren’t launching off the ground with any of the electric based systems, and accidental

For all the talk of SpaceX and a new race to Mars, no one seems to remark on the fact that rockets haven’t remarkably changed much since Goddard’s day. I remember asking one of my profs in college (an early researcher of the ramjet) what’s

The link between young age and (new) musical production is well established. Everything else - with the possible exception of math which is pretty related to musical ability - less so.

Your biggest issue was choosing to be a light wheel mechanic in an airborne unit. If you think survival rates for combat dropping troopers are bad, I'd hate to show you the actual percentage of HMMWVs that drive away from a drop zone.

Purple dye in the day was made from hundreds of ground up snails. And the color was, as I understood it, an official representation of the emperor. So akin to falsely representing oneself as the emperor. I'm sure someone else might h

That kind of damage would not be caused by an AA missile. Not only is it small (like you pointed out) AA missiles also tend to focus on fragmentation damage (expanding metal rings, directed frag etc). Source: I used to be an explosives expe

I barely read the tweets (I refuse to give more than 5 min of time to crypto news) so shame on me in advance if this has been covered: Are we sure this isn’t just another elaborate scheme to launder money?
