“Simplifies”

Thumbnail: something decidedly not simple

Edit: and reading the article, it’s so so much more complex than the picture could’ve implied. Awesome concept and implementation, but not simple.

The dang thing has been rarely doing the 3 chirp code a couple times during the day for the better part of a week now. Our cat is really frightened by the sound and I fairly quickly had a suspicion which one was throwing the chirps but I couldn’t catch it in the act to be sure, and it was otherwise ambiguous which one was at fault and there were no LED codes to help.

Finally confirmed it today. 10 years and 1 month past date of purchase. 10 year warranty. Figures.

Love this scene

But it is definitely this

Yep, I scrubbed all my feeds for this reason. I have enough friends that post the lowlights to group chats anyway, that’s already more than enough of the bile for me.

He’s got good piling form I’d say.

I had the exact same situation during Uri in 2021 following 36 hours of no power and dripping faucets, Houston area. Unfortunately I’d only been dripping cold water faucets due to bad advice and not yet understanding the mechanics of the plumbing system. Once I discovered the freeze I opened the faucet fully and once power was restored I set a space heater pointed to the pipes underneath the sink and eventually it started flowing again. No damage but we have pex which are supposed to be more resilient to freezing incidents. Since then I’ve dripped both sides and always treated that area with care in freezes since as that proved that was the weakest link.

What is the effect toward the bottom that looks like a line of circles?

I’m hoping this will prevent toxic gym membership cancellation practices

Ya this is unfortunate but typical of so many kickstarter games. Back around 2011-2012 when kickstarter games were really taking off I backed quite a few. I think I’ve been able to play 2 maybe 3 tops. Lesson learned: it’s just very easy to underestimate time to deliver on lofty promises. Ideas are cheap; execution is what’s insane. Many of these were individuals or tiny groups with little or no real world experience in industry so no experience with project management; it’s really no wonder.

My organization has always held back new MacOS releases until the IT team completes internal testing and validation. This is pretty typical and enterprises should be used to this.

Bugs aside, new releases may have behavioral changes and that’s true of any OS.

At that age that was likely a pension.

But I mean, same.
