It's insanity. Rechargeable batteries were the default. You could switch out for a better battery. The whole vape scene looked to be a big win for decreasing smoking and reducing costs.
Then big tobacco and the government got involved.
It's literally buying rechargeable batteries and throwing them away after the first use. (Yes, I have also yelled at someone when they did that with some AA Eneloops 🙄).
As an aside, I don't smoke or vape, but had an interest in batteries, and some of the info that would come from some of the vape sites was fantastic.
The simple way is to dual boot or even simpler, set up a Linux distro in a Windows VM.
Let's you play/see if the distro works for you.
TBH, I've got 1 machine where Windows is more problematic than the Ubuntu that is setup to dual boot... Can't bring myself to do a fresh install of Windows lol...
I love ice cream, and a 1l or 2l tub is lucky to make it past 2 days.
But I struggled with my last tub. It's the first time I can remember that I went 'Nah, I don't want any. It'll be too cold and just unpleasant'. I could only bring myself to eat it at lunchtime.
And now I've actually stood in front of the fridge at the supermarket and gone 'Brrrr, no I'm not buying that. It'll be cold'.
Somebody help me. I'm now literally softer than ice cream sitting in the sun on a summer's day 😢
What normally happens is that the engineer will raise the corner cases and then be told that will never happen and they must not prepare for those use cases. Also, they can now deliver a week earlier.
I can't help feeling kinda sorry for most reality tv contestants now.
The latest one that really got to me was Alone. I watched a couple of different countries versions. It basically is leaving people in the middle of nowhere until they have a mental breakdown. I bailed out part way through a season. I just couldn't watch any more, it was so depressing.
To want to be on any of these reality shows, I just keep feeling bad for them.
Told them where the water pipes were. They used some sort of pipe finder to confirm.
Then, of course, they put the conduit drill straight through the water pipe under the concreted driveway. Turned off all the water and disappeared to Bunnings -allegedly- for hours. Cut up the driveway to get to the pipe to fix it. It still looks like shit. And is sinking..,
Next week, the guy to do the internal cabling shows up. Everything is too hard for him to do properly. So he drills a hole in the eaves, runs the cable through the roof, then a hole in the ceiling and drops the cable down the wall. No covering inside or out, just a black cable running up and down walls. And here was I stupidly thinking it would just be a nice faceplate on the wall inside.
Artificial satellites? Just for fun, I'm interpreting that as fake communication satellites, so:
'Unlike traditional communication satellites, artificial communication satellites are not launched into space via costly rockets using environmentally unfriendly propellents.
Instead, Artificial Satellite Systems (or ASS) make use of artificial intelligence to communicate via Frequency Adjusted Radio Tower Systems (known as FARTS).
FARTS allow for rapid, ASS to ASS communication. Additionally, Multiplexed Over/Under The Horizon' allows for increased speeds if ASS to MOUTH is enabled.'
I went to the Sydney Ramses exhibition at the Australian Museum.
I enjoyed it, though full.admission, I'm a bit of a sucker for history stuff. From memory price was about $42, so $38 for this one that has about 3x more artefacts seems reasonable. Expensive to take a family, and I'd reckon kids would get bored anyway.
As with all exhibits, best to try weekdays late afternoon or after hours to avoid crowds.
I still get chills being so close to things created so long ago. The intricate work inscribing entire statues and sarcophagus with hieroglyphics was amazing.
