Well I can't really, just hearsay. We were just a battalion and most were out on diverse smaller camps or manning checkpoints and the like, so we weren't that many that even could abuse it. And, it's a kind of abuse in essenc

Actually, it's real. I started getting spam emails from some new browser vendor, a contact of mine apparently had shared their contacts with them. They used that line, "it's a WOWser". edit: Rock Melt, anno pre-2012, per

Good news! Your computer is ready for Windows 11! And how about a nice game of Solitude Candy Smackers (TM)? Have you tried the new Microsoft Edge web browser? It's not a browser, it's a WOWser!

Sure it wasn't a weird grazing ritual? A cron script would've replaced you doing that, more efficiently and reliably. When I did military service abroad, the new chefs rotating down was put on "sandwich alert" in which a

Everyone can and will make really bad decisions, but in my experience, owning up to mistakes and taking responsibility in contrast to playing it down and being history revisionists, is inversely proportional to, well, how clever they consid

Perhaps this is just a rebrand of that already common tech? Kind of how some manufacturers claim "we have AI!" just based on something simple like adapting to a moving average.

Don't worry, the code is self-documenting. /s Self-documenting code (what I take in practice means "no comments"-culture) is something I don't understand how it can work, never seen a good implementation of it. It _

Immediately caught my eye as a vacation destination! Those of you that have been there, do you have any tips to share? We're primarily interested in nature experiences and volcanoes rather than drinks at the bar. The Caldera Blanca on

Have you played The Last of Us part 2? The amount of details all over the world, smooth animations that blend midway into another, etc, really is a step forward imo.

Anyone know what the curve for alcohol looks like? I know no amount of alcohol is "safe", and a lot of alc is very bad, but in between, what does it look like? Is it a cliff after more than 2 drinks a week? 10? Does it matter if i

Probably cancer from HPV virus, which (at least in Sweden) is vaccinated against in 10 (11? 12?) year-olds, before their sexual debut. HPV is so transmissible and so common that on average, if you have had 2-3 partners, you can kind of coun

I've used KiCad for 2 and 4 layer boards, including RF-sensitive stuff with PCB antennas, worked great. Loved that the component footprint (among other things) was just readable text, thus I could manually create the traces for the ant

The initial state of doubting the test fixtures (healthy skepticism!) highlights that it's very useful to keep a few known-good hw specimens over time, so that when you get a new batch that fails, you can test your test equipment again

An interesting macro-variant is the Berlin brigade tank camo pattern, which is surprisingly cool! No idea where that comes into uniform camo pattern history nor how efficient it is, but who cares. It's cool beans. https://en

If donating prior to high ferritin and onset of symptoms, that might be enough, but to handle the former, one needs much more frequent blood donations to push the level of stored iron level down than what donations allow. (at least in Swede

LinkedIn is closer to Facebook imo. The subreddit /r/linkedinlunatics is pretty funny, and also a bit scary. It's pretty interesting actually, on facebook you see people show off a manufactured persona that is always laughing

Yeah, that's been my observation too. If I watch a movie and they end up in a Chinese city (HK, Shanghai etc), it's often a strong indicator of Chinese investors. At least when it comes to blockbuster movies. When it comes to the

Ah man, I saw the bodycam footage from that incident. That scarred me, it's NSFL. I've previously seen many bodycams which to me changed the view on what american LEO (can) meet on a daily basis, and the zero-time switch from a co

I read a book that was pretty good on this topic. It said that you can see burnout as a long-term fail in the strain--rest equation, much like obesity is a fail in calories in--out. Sometimes, it's hard to change the strain part, since

Not just fidelity, it can also be a strain. I'd much rather, as in hundred times more preference, sit in an open office situation than have a zoom/meet/teams open for a long stretch. I think it's something with not knowi
