the real reason they put stalls around the toilets is to protect other bathroom occupants from porcelain shrapnel

sudo -i starts a login shell as the specified user. Login shell means it’ll read that user’s bashrc/zshrc/whatever other login files and apply those. If no user is specified, then it’ll login as root, so you get a root shell

hope he left the Allen keys to put the mines together with them too

thats kind of amazing that you can just graft one body part onto another while waiting for the correct spot to heal enough to actually have a successful reattachment surgery.

Bagger 288 is the only hope we have

only 3? With the way he consumes those things, he was probably actually going through a withdrawal

my bank account, I can handle being breached. But my Pringles.com account?!?!?!? That is SACRED

It’s got all the nutrients you need on a long ride!

i hope that door automatically pops open if a smoke alarm goes off. High speed exit from a burning house while covered in water? Can’t be any safer

bro we got them Neanderthal cooties wth

My parents bought an Echo Show that they pretty much just ignore nowadays, except to set a timer or tell them the weather every once in a while. All it does all day is sit there and show ads for random stuff. It makes a terrible clock because its too busy showing ads half the time to actually show you the time in a font you can read from across the room. I know you can ask it to tell you the time, but thats so much slower than just looking at a normal clock

hire that guy! he thinks outside the box

Never put your company name in a password. Always use one of your competitors. They should have used ‘BritishMuseum’ or something

I think there’s a bit more nuance with this one. I’m all for safety and all that, but the fact that one company, SawStop, owns the patent for the blade stop system that they’re trying to mandate is a pretty big issue. Sure they’ve pledged to not enforce the patent if the mandate goes through, but that’s entirely on their word, nothing in writing. The cost of a saw would go up if they don’t waive the patent enforcement and manufacturers have to pay to license the technology (or some other related patent that the system can’t function without). Also, if the saw manufacturers are also making saw blades, they’d probably end up selling more blades as a result of the blade stop, since iirc, the system shunts a hardened steel block into the path of the blade as soon as it detects an electrical current from your finger (or a hot dog in all the demos lol), which stops and breaks the blade in the process. Dunno if that would make up for lost sales due to higher prices, tho.

None of this would effect table saws that already exist, and higher prices may drive people to buy more used stuff, rather than new stuff.

On top of dealing with the SawStop patent issues, there’s other things that could also help with table saw safety, like designing blade guards that people don’t want to remove cuz they get in the way, that aren’t addressed by this mandate. This NPR article from 2024 kinda talks a bit more about the whole issue around the blade stop mandate.

Not to say that this mandate shouldn’t happen, I’m more concerned about it being implemented in a way that won’t drive people away from buying saws with a blade stop system due to price

Oh definitely for that price you could come up with something to clean the balls, but our current Secretary of Health would probably say thats unnecessary and ruins “survival of the fittest” or something and then pocket any extra cash earmarked for safety

100% the next cause of a global pandemic is gonna evolve from that ballpit. The old Mcdonald’s Play Place’s were worrying enough

Eight Sleep’s products rely on cloud connectivity to control temperature and track biometric data. When AWS went down, users lost access to the app that manages its water-cooled coils, leaving them stuck with whatever setting was last active.

Insane oversight to design the bed (or any product like this, really) such that it can’t be adjusted without the internet.
