Google seems to have set their nest protect units to need six lithium AA non-rechargeable cells. Which is 1.8v, not 1.5v. You put in completely fresh batteries verified with a multimeter at above 1.5v (1.58v iirc) and they’ll complain about it.

I bought lithium rechargeable and they’re 1.5v. Which seems reasonable. I wish all of ‘em would be one standard.

Feels instead like we have AA-, AA, and AA+.

I dunno if all ADHD is exactly like yours, but I doubt it. Your version sounds pretty hellish, to put it lightly.

Good info though, thanks for deeming us worthy of your time (not sarcastically) and sharing your experience. Pretty eye opening for us neurotypicals.

You vastly overestimate the competence of the workforce in general. If you show up on time, work hard, and work to improve over time (don’t expect to be perfect! Just learn from mistakes!) you will be a coveted employee.

Hopefully this leads to improved feelings of self worth.

Reminds me of the YouTuber Mat Armstrong w/motto “Hard work beats talent.”

As others have said, pick a trade. Make bank. Get some friends who value you for you. F everyone else. Not literally lol

Good. I hope the lawsuit is successful. Intel did not handle this very well, to say the least.

Mistakes are OK. How you handle them makes a difference and Intel has been a shitshow on this front. For a long time.

If they had been acting in good faith the entire time this lawsuit would not exist.

Report being raped without being laughed at.

Yes! I hate this!! There seems to be an industry wide practice of never carrying any product consistently.

I understand that if something had to be put on clearance even in-season that they’re not going to buy more of it. But surely bringing back best sellers would be profitable?

Or even providing some mechanism for ordering previously-stocked items online? I don’t need to try it on and will order many units/variations because I already know I love it. Seems like an easy way to make money. Low to no returns too.

lol sorry about that. Polyester definitely doesn’t have that effect on me and unlike cotton, 100% polyester is pretty much unaffected by wash + dry cycles.

Cotton wears out stupidly quick in comparison.

So when buying off I’m interested i don’t even check sizes, I go straight for material. If it’s less than 70% polyester I won’t even consider buying it.

The apology is because stores do seem to be shifting towards folks like me. I love it.

Keeps carpal tunnel at bay. Well, helps but doesn’t totally prevent it by itself.

Last time I tried it, it choked on anything over a million files. Is it better now?

The point is to show different biases through their source’s own interpretation of facts, not to deliver unbiased news themselves.

Put another way, Ground News is kinda saying “here are some cold days, hot days, and in-between days. This is what we experience.” You’re sitting there saying “they’re liars! Have you forgotten 0 degrees kelvin and the center of the sun?!?”

We haven’t forgotten but it’s not the point. Moreover if they changed their scale to show the modern left is not really left wing at all, then they would not be representing what we’re seeing, and critically, they would not be shareable as a demonstration of bias in news. Because most people would dismiss them as propaganda without really digging in.

Didn’t watch, did you?

Yes, they reported the first hand experience because they can vouch for it completely. But they also have hundreds of people who contacted them - often with evidence - about Asus being dishonest and deceitful.

In one of those people. I’m glad the word is spreading. Asus RMA really is that bad, too the degree the company just needs to die.

Well that and only boosting a little at a time. Generally you’ll see crashes and corruption long before you’ll kill a card, if you can avoid swinging for the fences.

shutdown -h now on the wrong machine. Should have been “-r”. No IPMI but important enough to force me to drive to the office at night.

Ever since, I force myself to wait a couple seconds before sending any shutdown command, and tend to use reboot instead.

It’s basically the same as Dropbox or OneDrive or Box and those are all SaaS.
