One exception: I wouldn't buy a noname filter claiming to e.g. be a hepa filter or having high MERV rating - I wouldn't trust a brand that might not be around long enough to be penalized for false advertising

I've just discovered a new game: start posting how you love windows, meat and Elon, place bets who will attack you first

She'd lose battle of wits against a stuffed iguana. She's essentially unarmed

A rehabilitated convict turned prison cleric actually

I was on a night train, alone in the compartment, when a door opened around 2am letting in a very tall guy built like a fridge. I'm above average in height and build and he dwarfed me. He had a face to match including a long scar going from his eye to the jaw bone. Think Marv from Sin City, but more grim and less charming.

He nodded, took off his coat and that's when I noticed a clerical collar.

Even at double the price you still end up paying under $0.10 per shave - maybe $25/year - and that's if you pay full price. A small fraction of what you'd pay for cartridges or disposable razors.

This. I bought 500 feather blades for $40 (which is more of a steal than a deal) in 2013 and they will last me many more years

Vladdy?

If you are on stock software on EOL device you are not getting os updates either.

Also a bunch of recent vulns were in SoC specific stuff - outside os.

No security fixes once the device reaches end of life. For pixel 4a end of security updates was 10 months ago. That mostly is a problem with malicious apps - there were some privilege escalation bugs in those 10 months - but sometimes you get a banger that can get exploited by simply loading a page or opening an image.

Something more like this https://a.co/d/0bgPCSvQ - it should use half the power, it's way smaller, 2x SATA if you want 2 drives. I haven't checked if this specific one is 12V, but there are dozens in the same form factor and with similar specs.

There are a lot of atom or mobile i3/i5 powered mini PCs that actually are powered with a 12v brick, in fact most of the industrial ones are. Small form factor, passive cooling, can play media for you and usually comes with 4x 1/2.5gbit Ethernet, so it can double as a router/switch. Usually 10-15w power draw.

Go to AliExpress and simply search for minipc and make sure it has a SATA connector for your hard drive.

For me that's achieved by being 6 timezones ahead - I finish work, turn off my computer and go to sleep.

It is an issue in Poland. Close to 30% of the population is at Sunday mass and even if priests were perfectly neutral (and they very much aren't) simply people deciding "I'm already out, I might as well vote" does make an impact on the outcome. Every time liberals and socialists score an election win is after electorate mobilization that counters that.

BTW I agree that voting should happen on a statutory holiday, but it shouldn't be one associated with a majority religion.

It skews the results towards christian-backed candidates - Sunday mass gets people out of their houses, clergy reminds them to vote and at least hints who they should vote for and they do on their way home.

Realistically the best you can hope for is many of them opting to not vote at all.

Almost. a 10db change is a 10x difference in power and roughly 2x difference in perceived loudness

Decibel scale is logarithmic, which means 10db change is reducing perceived volume by half.

You can't create a PSN account in something like 190 countries and regions, including some European Union member countries, all of Africa except one country, etc.

4k 120Hz HDR is what current gen consoles can output right now and what is becoming common even on mid-range TVs (quality of HDR aside). I'd expect you'd want most of that experience or future-proof solution that would allow that when you get a new TV.
