Amperage determines how much current something gets.

Voltage times amperage determines the power something draws.

More current needs thicker wires, while higher voltage does not.

My wife swears by it. For me it does nothing. She gets wasp-sized bumps from mosquito bites.

Below -18°C.

I use a probe thermometer to verify. Mine hovers between -20°C to -22°C

Until you try to sort your log files alphabetically.

I live in a 50 year old house. All the breakers are 16A, so 220V x 16A = 3.5kW

The electric sauna does three-phase @ 400V. My energy tracker usually peaks around 9.5kW when it's heating.

Sweden. 30 days of PTO per year.

I usually do three weeks in summer, two over Christmas and save the rest for random extended weekends when the public holidays align.

Also, I have about 90 days of paid, and 45 barely paid days parental leave left to take out. There was a total of 480 days for me and the Mrs to share in-betweenst ourselves per kid. I took four months off. Plus another 10 daddy-days to use immediately after baby was born.

I started 28 years ago with Slackware 3.0, then Gentoo, Ubuntu, took a detour via OS X, then back to Ubuntu, now Arch.

Thanks. It hit close to home. I hate it.

Ahh. 2000.

When Alpha and Transmeta was the future. No more of this Intel and AMD crap.

I'm going to place an angled mirror from the bathroom to the kitchen so I can blink to my wife to bring toilet paper. Or a towel.

Just because you're the best at something doesn't mean you should stop trying to improve.

OP didn't say anything about their financial situation, so we can only speculate.

Maybe they're a landlord. Maybe they have a hedge fund. Maybe they've made good financial decisions in the past and have a big buffer saved up. Maybe they just sold their yacht and have a lot of cash burning in their pocket.

OP never said anything about being light on money.

It's actually easier when you don't have to plan your travel around your work schedule.

You use the same computer every day? Now that's unhygienic.

I thought we solved this for good in the 80s?

I guess that particular question didn't age so well.

It's still spring. But everything is in bloom.

I'll have strawberries, cherries, plums and apples. Month by month.

We run Linux on them because they're cheap and disposable.

Slackware in 1997.

I ran it on a 486SX/40 with 32MB of RAM and a 2GB harddrive.

It turned me into the man I am today.

It's been 20-something years since I've read the books as far as Jordan wrote. I haven't read any theories.

If I had to make one up on the spot it would be that ironing clothes has not been invented in this turn off the wheel.

That would explain why the two rivers girls keep smoothening their dresses on every page.
