  • No-fail kitchen garbage bag replacement.

    1. Buy high quality (not Walmart) plastic kitchen bin. Note bag size printed on giant, impossible to remove sticker.
    2. Buy proper bag size from name brand. You can spend a bit of money up front, or spend your valuable time later cleaning up garbage juice. Your call.
    3. Remove bag from roll.
    4. Open bag and scare the crap out of the dog by inflating the bag with swift, loud, jarring noises.
    5. Place bag in bin. DO NOT ATTACH YET.
    6. Starting at one corner, seal the bag around the edge while simultaneously reaching into the clean bag and forcing air out from between the bin and bag.
    7. Work your way around until entire inside of bin looks like a reverse condom.
    8. Good to go.
  • I taught my pet rock to "stay" in 1988.

    It hasn't moved since.

  • From what I researched, the average lifespan of HDs and SSDs is no more than 10 years.

    Is this running or not running though? I think a bunch of flash chips, properly stored, would last quite a while

  • Sigh. I'd disagree with you, but you're absolutely correct.

  • I love Micro Center. I wish they'd expand or offer online ordering and shipping.

  • I am old. I remember when pricewatch.com and tigerdirect.com existed. You wanted to build a PC, you were picking parts manually uphill both ways while wearing an onion on your belt.

  • Me too and I run an instance.

  • That's awesome! A pal of mine hung out with him afterwards and got him a Spotted Cow (beer from New Glarus, WI) and he was more relaxed. I don't fault anyone who speaks publicly. They have the honor and privilege to be up there. Also, we all have bad days. Some of us have the ability to take care of our stuff in private.

  • I saw Dr. Tyson speak at UW Madison some years ago. He was engaging but didn't want anything to do with questions. Every question he took he'd pause and say something like "I've covered that before. Read my book." or in one case "That's a dumb question. Next?" to a very valid question about stardust.

    I'd listen to him speak again but man, don't see him on a bad day.

  • Maybe he should get the tucker carlson hairdo. That might help his chances.

  • You can host overseas and use a proxy for hosting. I mostly don't worry about it though because I don't do anything illegal.

  • Love the congruence of geometry in this photo. Beautiful shot, thanks for sharing.

  • All dark meat I suppose.
