If they’re good, awesome. If they’re meh, jam on some CCR. Or anything that was released on and most folks first hear on vinyl.

It’s not hard to tweak, it’s not hard to play, and nobody else will ever hear it so if it sounds good to you, in the room, that’s all that matters.

Can hear Lodi bouncing off the limestone now…

I have this exact use case on a work machine, because the proxy flat refuses to prompt for the login, just goes straight to deny.

I own neither the proxy, nor the steaming heap of code that lives behind it, and I’m grateful for that every single day…

Didn't even occur to me that it was missing - I can find the cruise control buttons to turn it on/off, and set or change speed, with my eyes closed. Which is the whole idea. Eyes nowhere near the buttons, muscle memory takes over.

Yes, from where I sit. That's one of the few sources of enjoyment and relaxation they have.

You are a hero. I managed recently to injure myself enough that I'm in some pretty severe pain, and can't do many of the usual things I just don't even think about generally. It's not that hard to remind myself "don't use that fucking arm!" but it's been brutal to me mentally because of the independence factor.

You gave your elderly neighbor back a ton of independence, and that makes more difference than you might expect to a person. Thanks for looking out for your neighbor.

The same has occurred to me numerous times. I'm not the guy to lead the project, but I'd certainly be willing to dive in and help.

Honestly, I'm somewhat surprised there isn't one, or at least a zygote of one, already.

Yes, and they won't for the moment.

Hazmats are prohibited in both tunnels. About the only option for those is to go all the way around 695, adding the better part of 50 miles.

I think we all know someone who was forced to buy TP on ebay in the early pandemic.

This could send us right back there. Doesn't much matter why stuff can't move from A to B, prices will increase and people will take the opportunity to profiteer.

I’ve been seen by worse attendings in my time, but your point is valid.

I’d go 50%. Weight based dosing is not human friendly at all.

That’s a pretty reasonable perspective that will serve most people well.

Woah, if he wouldn’t touch it, that’s a bill of goods no one can sell.

Nor do I, but I certainly see how this could become a shitshow quickly. See, e.g., bar closing times, concealed carry permits, nuances around medical decisions, and a host of other things individually legislated by fifty-two jurisdictions (incl fed and dc) - consequences of an accidental trip one exit too far down the interstate can be devastating.

"The only thing worse than a woman who doesn’t know her place, is a man who doesn’t know his,” he wrote on Facebook in December 2017.

Perhaps I need to get my eyes checked, but.. Isn't he black? I shudder to think what a black man "knowing his place" in NC meant just a handful of years ago.

I can think of a single example in my living memory within the US, the loner who attacked the congressional softball game was left of the average democrat. How much farther left, I don't recall.

Part of that surely has to do with the way the gun debate in this country has been framed, and the positions the left has taken up on the same. That's a separate conversation, of course, but I hypothesize that the dearth of guns on the left also leads to a dearth of acts that kill people. Well, that, and the lack of baseless bs conspiracy theories (mostly).

Edit: Source

I'll be honest, I don't understand why the hell we're not already doing exactly this.

I think I was maybe three or four years old when it finally clicked that you always ask for more than you want / expect. Couldn't elucidate it as such, at the time, but I certainly can now. Corollary is that if you make reasonable demands, expecting good faith, you will get bartered down to zero. Generations of market stall sellers can attest to that one the world over.

Open source wheelchairs; and a community of variously abled makers who can come together and build assemblies that are "not medical devices" but come together easily into something that could be used as such.

Speaking strictly for the US, and as a non-lawyer - I'm inclined to think that an open source wheelchair would probably sail right through the 510k process, but... Still doesn't make that process cheap by any means.

I've had similar thoughts re: CPAP/APAP machines, neither the SW nor the HW is brutally complex / poorly understood. Pretty straightforward stuff mostly. But trying to distribute a thing like that even as plans is just asking for a C&D from the FDA, I'd expect.

That's the one I had in mind.

If the clock is off (bad CMOS battery, as others have noted); and there is a password "max age" setting that's intended to be far, far, far in the future...

Well, your clock being off by a few hundred years might well trigger the (intended never) expiration setting.

Malware is a possibility, but I lean towards the date being the cause rather than an effect.
