TIL miniblinds with pull cords to raise and lower them are now illegal to sell in the United States

Jump

  • Wait, I meant like in between the glass of the windows. If you have to pull and push the blinds themselves that would not work... right?

  • Huh. The string ones can be mounted inside the window. I guess these can't then.

  • That is the only kind I know of. How does the other kind work?

    Edit: should have been more specific; the string ones are the ones I know of.

  • It's nice to see them lowering the bar for "high-quality" at the same time. Really makes it seem like they mean it. /s

  • It is called Einstein's Equation, it is a General Relativity equation describing the spacetime geometry (G) relation to various energy/mass configurations (T) and the cosmological constant (Lambda).

  • I got that from the other answers. I was just very confused why I'd have to rename them to ".zip".

    I still don't get why it is "most" files.

  • OK, thanks for all the answers. I get it, a "docx" is a zip archive expected to contain something specific making it a docx. But why "most" though?

  • OP refers to the fact that you can rename some filetypes to .zip and unpack them.

    So... you mean the zip program just rename them back? Why?

  • I don't get it... I must be missing something about zipped files.

  • If you like mathbf more then at least redefine vec and use vec. Keeps the code more tidy.

  • I'm running PopOS on a computer for wathing media at home. I'm not too impressed. I read a bunch of comment threads recommening it so I treid it out. They seem a bit unstable -- that at least falls in OP middle ground. I made an update and dpms management was just different, like the screen is no longer turning itself off. I've had some thing like this happen on it. It's not breakage, it's a bit annoying. "Just works"? Eh, sure, kinda'.
