  • I have a FLIRC remote with the receiver and use it for both my TV and HTPC.

    It's awesome once set up, but the app is honestly dogshit. They put in all these smooth menu transitions and whatnot, making it painfully difficult to configure the remote.

  • So, once OS updates are unavailable, the machine might become a weak link from security standpoint or stop running some software.

    That's why I specified:

    Double check before buying that it can be wiped and you can put Linux on it.

  • Yep, that's what I started with. I had a 2014 Toshiba Chromebook with 16 GB storage and 2 GB memory.

    It was my lil ssh/vnc machine for the longest time until the battery stopped working. I replaced it with a proper Thinkpad recently.

  • Considering that human diet can modify the metabolic rate and the release of different odor-related volatile metabolites (Havlicek & Lenochova, 2006; Ajibola et al., 2013; Baranska et al., 2013; Zuniga et al., 2017), it is not surprising that some foods and alcoholic beverages can have an impact on the release of kairomones. However, as shown in this section, the literature on these aspects is quite scarce and further studies on the effects of diet on susceptibility to mosquitoes are needed.

    Reading the sections prior to that, it seems metabolic rate and some other factors matter more in the attraction of mosquitos - mostly odors and other stuff influenced by genetics.

  • I sent a PM.

    Some questions:

    Is it warm to the touch? How big is it? What is the shape? Color? Location? Is there exudate? Is it more dry or more moist than the surrounding skin? Is it elevated or depressed?

  • I got some JVC earbuds and they work with just Bluetooth. Pretty good noise canceling as well.

    I had a pair of wired earbuds from JVC for years and they were so good that I kept buying them when they broke and always have one in my backpack.

  • Haha it's a game called Escape from Tarkov.

    It's a hardcore extraction shooter. Whatever you bring in to a raid will be lost when you die. If you manage to extract, you can keep whatever loot you found - whether it spawned in the world or you took it from a dead player.

    The gear you bring in can be "insured" by vendors. Usually it's a 24 hour real-world timer if you die with that gear. Even then, the gear that you insure has another filter before it gets returned: Other players and scavengers can take it.

    The "lore" of the game explains the insurance return as a deal between the vendors and the scavengers in the area.
