It's more complex and expensive to have it controlled by software though.

Hardware controlled would be the equivalence of using a splitter to add a second lamp on an outlet attached to a light switch. (would only require a change in a trace or two and a transistor/resistor or two.)

Software controlled is the equivalence having to buy smart outlets and programming them yourself to have the two lamps turn on at the same time. (requires the same as a hardware switch, plus a more expensive or even an extra controller chip along with the need to write and program it.)

My sister's fiance thought just because an iPhone (for instance) was designed in the states that it wouldn't be subject to tariffs, despite being made in China and using foreign parts.

C and B have a wormhole between them

Their loss

Not all of us live in Alabama.

I thought there's still a bot tracking him, just not on Twitter anymore.

I think you reversed it

Yes

32°F is freezing. 0°F (-18C) happens, but isn't too common in most of the US.

Same. I imagine, for me at least, it's due to having deal with unendingly different keyboard models and not being in front of a terminal all day.

I can however type relatively quickly with either my left or right hand and with the keyboard facing me or sideways. It's a skill that's really useful when helping someone out with an issue they're facing. (I prefer being at their side over remote, as I can gauge what they do and don't understand better)

One of the issues with that is that unless you are WFH, you would very likely have to find another job that is commutable. With local salaries more of less being intertwined with the housing, (see cost of living) the new job would also very likely put you in the same position you started with.

Honestly, I see circular saws/blades as more horrifying

Is it just me, or is the article paywalled?

Dexter's lab watcher perhaps?

Aren't nuclear and volcanic winters the only things that could reverse climate change?

Just increase the size of our seed vault/s.

They need a concept of prejudice that's simplistic (as in singular) in nature with with a tangible body of people or person/s to blame. It would also need to tie into beliefs that they heard or taught while growing up.

Trying to get them to understand (put two and two together) the different facets of a conspiracy or something that is rigged tends to lose them when there is more than one thing at fault.

It's the attorney general from Florida.

With you having to judge millions of children, that you need to get high just to stay sane; you get a pass.

But there is a general recommendation to not eat or drink for 15-30min after brushing to give enough time for the fluoride to bind to any exposed enamel surfaces. It's also better to use a fluoridated mouthrinse over water, if getting the grittyness is what you're after.

Is this from that one about that lunch thing where people ignored when told to only reply to that one guy. It gave me a bit of enjoyment this week.
