We also use that to designate phasing in the electrical world.

Magic

Old hardware used to get really upset before plug and play became common. I remember I was playing some old racing game with a joystick on a win95 box, and accidentally pulled the connector out, lost my entire game because the system flipped out.

Bingo.

Contributing and/or maintaining a FOSS project < not getting murdered by my wife for "playing on my computer instead of spending time with my family."

It could be some of the most mission-critical work imaginable, but she'd still see it as goofing around because I'm not getting paid, and she requires attention. And I love the hell out of my wife, so happy wife indeed equals happy life.

Depends where on my monitors I'm putting it.

Indeed. We have central heat, and technically we're supposed to install one of those fireplace inserts for efficiency (California). But there's nothing better than a roaring fire, even if it sucks more heat out of the house than it puts in.

That comes from down yonder, usually when you need to go potty.

You've.. put some thought into this.

I just saw an 18 pack for $14.75 yesterday at my local grocery. A dozen is $10, and that's for the white eggs, not the brown ones. Luckily we have a Grocery Outlet that had a dozen for $7.50, but holy shit.

Assuming they can read anything that isn't boiled down slop from OAN, Fox, or Breitbart.

Iirc OPs usually get LOS support pretty quick? Granted my last OP was an 8 pro so it's been a minute.

This was more likely. I seem to remember people passing around IPs on IRC then AIM chatrooms of webcams from all over that were accessible from a browser, but I'm fairly certain the owners had no idea they were open to the internet. This must've been late 90s/early 00s.

I do believe that is widely regarded as a "bad move"

Points for creativity certainly, psych eval for execution

Marinara can't melt boil steel uncooked spaghetti

Aye, but I'm talking about those working at said landfill, and I do believe there's a huge predication within this conversation that all participants are fully law abiding folks, even marginally. Not saying you're wrong in any sense, but I'm just on about the gray area of individuals employed by said landfill just keeping a keen eye open for a potentially valuable little box and then running off into the sunset should they happen on it. Pure speculation, of course.

Looks like someone moved to San Francisco with some money and had "an idea"

Yeah, laws don't really have any basis in reality when the current administration treats the like concepts of a plan.

Interesting, I have to bowl-like version and I wish I knew that was a thing beforehand.

That Ninja company has a model called the Foodie that is an all in one air fryer/pressure/slow cooker. It's absolutely fantastic. Granted I have my trust crock pot that I found at a yard sale for $20 but that option is there.
