  • Not every adventure goes as planned. Those that don’t usually end up with a great story!

  • Y'all can be all high and mighty about it, but if I saw $750 sitting on top of a pile of outhouse poo, you can bet I'm gonna be willing to come out with blue goop up to my wrist.

  • I’d be curious what their measure of concrete is. The plain stuff has 3000psi compressive strength and a usable modulus of rupture of around 250psi. And if it survives re-wetting / over-drying and aging.

    PLA is (very) roughly 20x that.

  • Emergency? You mean kind of emergency where I have to call my naval architect to lengthen my new summer yacht by another half a football field because I need to spend this profit windfall. -Power Co execs in TX

  • Roll over and check to see what time it is on my phone. If it's within 20 minutes of when I get up, I'll probably go ahead and shower and make breakfast. If it's more than an hour before my alarm I'd definitely try to go back to sleep.

  • This is exactly what I do. I had a couple retractable cables let over from my wired-VR days and rigged it up on my CR10s. Works great. Here's a pic - they tops are just connected to the top rail with a rubber band for easy removal. (this was take through the "window" in my enclosure, so you can't see the top)

  • Who goes to jail? The governor? The State Senate? The head of Texas Border Patrol? AFAIK when it comes to agencies, there are no teeth - are there?

  • Drop me in her seat for 7 figures with a nice kick-out clause (no stock, please) and I’ll pretend Xitter is a wholesome, thoughtful, productive corporate citizen, too.

  • I suspect that eliminating cities from your data set will also result in the finding that the ocean temperatures have cooled over time. Everybody pack it up, we're done here. I expect to see this paper (two papers, actually, but authored by basically all the same scientists) quoted by Republicans, Fascists, and Fossil Fuel company CEOs very soon now.

    EDIT: I just realize that this article is sitting at -8, and really, anyone who is seeing this as likely Grade AA bullshit needs to upvote it instead so that we can all know this tripe exists and be ready to counter it.

  • Someone might want to fix the summary. In bold it says 18 or when they graduate from high school *whichever is later *.

  • What I want to know is if they have to keep paying if the kids never graduate. It’s Texas so it seems like the odds are pretty high you could be paying for some dudes kids until they either get shot in a bar or do a lethal fentanyl hit.

  • Yes, but will they sell replacement cases with USB-C for existing users. Ideally for less than it costs to buy an entirely new pair of buds with the C case.

  • 90% of the experience is great. 10% of the experience is wondering why anyone sane would choose the UI or functionality as the default method and not provide any way to alter it. If you're someone who wastes time on setting up your UI just the way you like it, consider it a bonus that you get that time back.

    Oh, and if you get an LTE AppleWatch to go with it, the watch will occasionally "forget" that it has a plan and silently switch to bluetooth only - and can't be re-enabled on the LTE network without the phone. Not that I'm bitter about that time it happened when I didn't have my phone and I got stranded.

  • You seem to have quite the fan club, yourself. You must be very good at this!

  • I agree - the two posters above have very, very good points!
