Thanks for the correction! I’ve memorized that the other way around.

A quart is a bit larger than a liter. Four of them make a US gallon.

There’s no such mention of the rapture at all in the Bible. It was invented in the 19th century.

It also has a reddish-brown ring and smells of rotten eggs. My favorite fact, however, is that it rains diamonds on Uranus.

The multiverse has potentially lost its supporting evidence, with the recently updated dark photon theory challenging the fundamental premise of the double-slit experiment.

But I thought cameras > LiDar?🥴

Thank you. Me too. I’m glad to hear you found a way to make your pain more manageable.

It was initially caused by crossing my legs the wrong way and pushing back while sitting in an office chair. I was then misdiagnosed and had a surgery that compounded the problem with adhesions. It’s been a rough five years.

Same here. They just did it in the office with a laser. Nothing in comparison. I have persistent lightning-like stabbing pain in one testicle. That’s what my neurologist likened to period cramps. It’s bananas that women can just go about their day in that condition. It’s way beyond distracting.

When I move the wrong way, the pain floods my entire groin, to the point of complete disorientation, visual white out, profound ringing in my ears, and freezing cold rippling chills throughout my body. I’ve almost passed out on several occasions.

I have genitofemoral neuralgia. According to my neurologist, my pain most closely resembles severe period cramps, and occasionally will manifest akin to childbirth.

Women are the stronger sex. Trust me.

The old Creative MuVo would pull apart, exposing a male USB connector for easy drag & drop loading of MP3s. Such a great design.

Yup. Run it until it shuts down, then power it up into BIOS/EFI until there’s no more sign of life. Turing up screen brightness and streaming video over WiFi will speed things up if you’re in a hurry.

Great point! I always had that available to me at work, so I overlooked it as a step. You’re absolutely correct. Never skimp on safety.

It’s not a bomb. Batteries expand when the electrolyte degrades. Once the swelling stops, it’s homeostatic. Totally discharge the battery, open it up, carefully remove or replace the battery. You can most likely use the computer plugged in with the battery removed if you don’t want to buy a new one.

Discharging the battery is the most important step in that process. A discharged battery is very unlikely to combust.

It depends on the Democrat. There are centrists, liberals, and progressives in the Democratic Party.

It’s a legal disclaimer so they don’t get sued by Nintendo.

It says, “Nintendo is a registered trademark of Nintendo of America.”

Jim Jones has nothing on MAGA.

Carter was before Reagan. That’s why I said Obama was the best in my lifetime. I agree with Carter as a choice though.

I’d have a hard time calling the guy who championed civil rights, same-sex marriage, and tried to create universal healthcare a conservative.

Who would you say was a better President since Reagan that wasn’t conservative?
