It won't stay perfect, those will expand and contract at different rates, but if you want a cheap and quick fix, just get some caulk in roughly the same color. You could use joint compound as the other poster suggests, but caulk has some give, it's likely to still separate again at some point, but you'll have longer. The permanent solutions all kind of suck and/or are expensive, if you decide to try to reposition it and the issue recurs, I wouldn't do it more than once.

Patents are frequently intentionally as vague as possible. You're operating from the perspective that an item is patented to protect an idea as opposed to being weaponized to make money. You are for sure 100% going to be doing something where it's arguable that it could fall under an existing patent. You might still win if you want to pay to fight it out in court.

It's real easy to fake the data here, focus entirely on agency spend and completely ignore any savings the agencies themselves may have been responsible for. That can be hard to quantify anyways. They'll do that and right wing media will eat it up.

It'll be allowed, but they've just got to make sure only the "right people" get counted.

I've tried before, that sounds horrible, why are you doing that to yourself.

I've worked at not small companies who still thought that was too much work to mess with.

There's a lot of heroes out there doing even less than the bare minimum making it a lot easier for those of us who put in any effort at all. Seems to get more common as I get older.

Whenever there's a minor update of any kind, they tell me about something pointless that they've added Gemini too, but it's mostly fine and I've always been able to turn it off or ignore it. I haven't noticed any major issues with it.

I think any of us who have worked in academia can say something very similar about the other kind of doctor. I do feel like it may be a situation where it's just that the more vocal ones are ruining it for everyone, but we're getting heavy into anecdotal data at that point.

It sucks, but the anti intellectual crowd does legitimately have a lot of places to point some fingers.

It feels weird, but I'm told that's the norm outside the US. It kind of makes sense from a plumbing perspective.

You can afford new tires instead of just patching them endlessly?

Look at the big spender over here.

Wow, I didn't know that was an option, I thought we did 4k, then skipped to 6k and 8k. What's the actual resolution on that thing?

Full text is 'Below are some types of visual media that some might consider old or outdated. Which, if any, have you used in the past year?' and that is an item on the list, it's not an incredibly detailed survey.

I will say from the rest of the survey responses, the demographics they've selected seem to lean more technically competent and security focused than I'd expect.
