   I bought my house about 6 years ago, and since then I've converted the whole house (about 100 bulbs) to LED, using bulbs from maybe 5 different manufactuers. One of the mfg bulbs go bad. I think I'm at about a 50% failure rate wi

   I'm not a linguist, but I think they could have done better with the Plosive "P" sound. It's too close to the "B". In Standard American English the P is more obvious than this.

   I never heard it in anger, but yes, it is a joke. Where I am (western washington state) it's used to imply that something works to spec but could have been done a lot better if there was the motivation.

   Serious question: Anyone know of or building a "Tax Avoidance Service"? Maybe the only way to get these loopholes shut down is if its made available to everyone.

   Old as in circa 1970's. https://quoteinvestigator.com/2011/10/20/last-tree-cut/ Still a great saying though.

    Amazon renamed the product, probably due to this. https://www.amazon.com/AmazonBasics-Everyday-Sling-Inches-Bl... though the url still says "everyday sling" the product page does not.

    beware NVidia hybrid GPU's in laptops. I have had 4 such laptops, all 4 suffered from graphics problems. 2 ended up dead. 1 works great but the Nvidia GPU is no longer detected (???) And the last one still works, but graphics cra

    Finally got it too (aprox 4pm PST). Make sure you turn off Remote access in your device. Probably can leave on local login (w/Ubiquiti acct) but should turn on 2FA

    The OP strongly implied that 2 cops died at the hands of protesters. I think its appropriate to offer corrected info.

    what I don't understand is why all these "Preview" options only show the cover, table of contents, and back cover. why not show a few pages from the actual content? isn't that fair use?

    agree on that. I haven't changed my stripe api calls in about 3 years, and everything is still working.

    FYI, the suggested workaround posted by amazon staff in the article doesn't work either. You are supposed to be able to do a full GDPR data request and that should contain your orders. I made my request a week ago and have not yet rec

    Or, it could be like Amazon removing the ability to download your order history. Read the forums [0]. The post I linked is the most on point. Other conversations you'll see people saying "it's a bug, they'll put it bac

    ICBMs are old hat. Expect hypersonic scramjets to ratchet things up a notch. A country will have less than a 5 minute window to press their red button in the event of an alert. Not looking forward to this.
