Map usage times for a week.
In the middle of a non usage time type the string of characters that are first typed at the start of usage time.
Then open a browser using keyboard shortcuts (does Win+R open a browser in Windows if you type a URL in?) , type a URL, type in all learned username password combos, close browser using keyboard shortcuts.
It's only one wire in the cable, and it's not the wire, but it looks like the pin, or possibly the crimp point on the female pin.
So a few possibilities:
- Bad pins. Female pins (sockets) have internal wipers that grip the male pin and there is also the crimp connection. Bad QA on those leads to hotspots in the pin under high current draw. I'd probably go for this explanation, looking at the photos.
- Bad electrical layout on the card that means that the bulk of the current goes through this pin. Milliohms on the track traces are enough to cause imbalances. This might be balanced out by having a small-but-still-larger resistance in the (standard) cable, which leads to:
- It looks like thicker cabling is soldered and heatshrinked to smaller cabling that actually goes into the pins in the connector. There's a reason why industrial cable connections aren't soldered. Possibly a solder connection on another cable has broken and hidden in the hearshrink leaving more current to pass through this one.
- Following from this it's also quite possible that the thicker cable with less resistance , now has less voltage drop across it, and simply allows more current then designed through a connection already at its limit.
- It's quite possible that there are different pins/connector sets for different current draws. This cable might be using the wrong connector with the same physical size but lower current rating. The fact that the cable has been soldered to skinnier wires in the actual connector suggests this, but it's quite possible that the connector is the right one.

Yes, I am quite old now.

Every IT/software group needs to have one, otherwise you get complacent.
Yeah it's steadily getting enshittified.
I used to have a mythtv box that I'd built , like, 15 years ago and it was pretty good. For a while there TV UIs were adequate enough that I didn't need it, but it seems that maybe it's time to build another one.
TVs that do anything more than displaying a signal exactly as it's input shouldn't exist.
Some of that input could do with a bit of tweaking though.
I wouldn't mind if the TV was able to do things with the audio track, like remove background music, or lift the volume of people speaking, or erase laugh tracks/live audience hooting& hollering.
There's probably similar manipulation that you could do on the video side (eventually, once TVs stop getting the worst processors ever, not here and now). Imagine a prompt that says "Airbrush every recognisable brand name on-screen so that it blends with the background".
I seriously doubt if any major manufacturer would do that kind of thing though, so better get working on jailbreaking those TVs.
If you occasionally boot to windows, it's known to leave NICs in an unusable state if you just hibernate/quick power off. You need to boot back to windows and so a "proper" shutdown for it to come good.
Consider yourself corrected then. I've skimmed your comment history. Your go-to insult is "bootlicker" or alternatively, a simple clown emoji. In your comments you seem to provide very little context as to why you think that, it's just, "I deem you to be a BOOTLICKER! Next!"
So maybe a little guidance for you:
The very, very, first thing you do when dealing with perceived propaganda - be it on mainstream media, online, or wherever - is to remove all the emotion and insults and see what's left. You know what I see when I parse your comments like that? Very little.
Thus I conclude you have nothing of importance to say, and you become background noise that gets tuned out.
Actually your comments do have some small value. I check your bootlicker-comment-score and if it's greater than 5, I know the community you posted in isn't worth my time.
Six levels deep in a teams group file storage and open a file to view? Clicking the big obvious "close" button on the top right of the opened document now takes you back to the top level. Enjoy digging back in again!
Oh, you really just want to close that document and remain in the folder you were just in? Well that's easy. Just ignore that big tempting close button and click the tiny "<" button on the left, no problem. You'll probably remember that after reflexively clicking that close button at least once, so enjoy all that!
It was a Sharp "Memory LCD".
https://sharpdevices.com/memory-lcd/
Basically "visible memory storage".
You treat it as addressable memory and write into it, and it will hold that state using about 15 microwatts to do so.
You can still buy the display modules , there's a few boards that let you easily drive them with arduinos and etc.
"Akshually", so do you. You had a chance to discuss and inform, and instead you went straight to "bootlicker".
Do you think they're going to take any notice of whatever you say from here on?
Samsung front loader washing machine here.
It is generally musical while selecting program options. It sings a little song when finished, which is only after it unlocks the door. The little song only plays once. The little song can be changed to other tunes by subtle and undocumented button presses.
After about 10 minutes it plays a few notes while turning itself off that are easily recognisable as the notes it plays when it turns itself off, so if you miss the first little song, once you hear that you know it's definitely finished. After that it is done. No more door locking shenanigans or tumbling or clothes.
Generally I use the "sportswear" cycle which is about 1 hour, my clothes are generally not that dirty. Sometimes I treat towels / linen to a hot cotton cycle which is 2.5 hours and a 90 degree (Celsius) wash.
Had it for 10 years now, no mechanical or electrical issues. I always leave the door ajar when finished and once every few months I do a cleaning cycle.
I also have a Fisher and Paykel dryer. I have owned it for 8 years, in which time it has needed a replacement drive belt as it gets used heavily. The bushes on the drum need replacing soon, but I just turned it upside down so it will last for a while longer
Regarding your door issues, well that's because idiots try and open the door during a load, and then when it's locked, they turn it off and still try and open the door. They subsequently complain about the water going everywhere. Don't forget that manufacturers have to deal with the lowest common denominator end user.
You don't need an entire web server in your daemon, you just need the socket.
Include a websocket listener in the daemon. Keep a ringbuffer of the last X data points, whatever nicely fills your client graph, for example. Wait for clients to connect, dump in the ringbuffer, then update clients as data comes in.
The webserver can serve up the page with the client code that links to the websocket. After that it's strictly a discussion between the end client and the daemon over websockets.
What was Wenger thinking, sending Walcott on that early?
Maybe we should take the Amazon storefront naming approach where instead of repurposing exisiting nouns we just create new words from combinations of vowels and consonants, like Pnopty, or Flontep.
Always make your test messages something like, "Test message, please ignore".
That way if it all goes wrong at least it looks like it was somewhat intentional.
In Australia with similar parking companies they have to prove that the losses incurred would amount to what they are trying to invoice.
That is, the invoiced amount can't be a penalty, it can only be up to the amount required to recoup the financial loss they would incur from being unable to rent out that spot for the duration under their usual rates. This is the basic "making them whole again" principle of compensation that applies in the legal system when parties are injured.
The "penalty" amount that they attempt to invoice is thus pretty difficult for them to justify, seeing that all day parking can usually be had for $20 or so.

The distinction is "through which users".
Merely putting something online does not make it social media. The key is the ability for users/passers-by to add their own content and/or comments, which then allows for interaction between users.
They're not missing funds though, it's not a discrepancy in accounting. They overpaid , they know where the money is, and it's simply a business decision whether to recover it or not.
They could have simply filtered on overpayment above some arbitrary value based around recovery vs goodwill.
Or they could have let it slide, but still notify people so that they wouldn't be wondering if it was an accounting error.
But no, they want to recover 23 cents which is well below the cost of everyone's time and effort to deal with, on both sides of the transaction.
Lots of expensive industrial equipment runs these kinds of processors still. You can still buy motherboards with 8 bit ISA slots even, although you'll pay quite a premium.
But all of that kind of gear typically runs its own distro with an in-house build system. For example, my work uses a flavour of Buildroot for their embedded Linux systems and you can just set whatever processor type you like all the way back to plain old i386 when you build it.
