That does seem pretty obligatory. We have the same thing on our irrigation (don’t want irrigation water backflowing in to the drinking water, and also it’s required).
We are at the top of a hill and everything flows down from us to the entire neighborhood, so that is another good check on the issue.
I’ve got a similar situation to your rental for my basement (the main floor drains separately). There’s a macerator/pump combo in an 8ish gallon tank in a pit cut through the foundation (lined with concrete) that elevates to the main drain outside the house. The pump failed a couple years ago and was not fun to deal with. Luckily it was exclusively laundry that day. Everything connected to it is vented.
When we get pushed to connect to sewer (one way or another), my plan is to get a bit silly and connect at the lowest level so we can avoid the pump for the future.
What about the energy crisis Don?
But that was never the real point was it. Solar and wind energy keep a few dollars out of the billionaire pockets, so we gotta cancel that.
Nearly same here, but mine is from 2010 and all I’ve ever done is replace the original starter cartridge of toner with a generic one once, and that was 12ish years ago and 2 cross-country moves. I’ve maybe printed a thousand pages ever.
Username checks out I guess?
(Timezones are such great fun)
I think a note with the master password or key to your password manager in a fireproof safe or safety deposit box (depending on the need for immediate access prior to probate).
Having many passwords means the list needs to be updated constantly. Having the master means whenever you change that one.
Source: dealt with this for my dad when mom passed. Though hers was a spread sheet with handwritten updates. Most of them even worked, but she was a very fastidious person (are you?).
For sure. You weren’t gonna hear the difference on your $2 headphones or the speakers connected to your monitor anyway.
Plus, file size was king. My first mp3 player (dlink dmp 90) had 16MB of internal memory and used those original SD cards for more (up to 32MB, but who could afford that?).
So 128kbps offered a really great compromise because it was still better than FM.
Yes, and it’s nowhere near fit for service as a prison or much else other than tours.
There’s more bird shit than paint in most areas on the outside. It’s probably a 2 year minimum refit (at ludicrous expense) to return to service.
But I guess if it was a great prison when america was great … Then we have to reopen it?
2 tbsp celery salt
I think something is lost in translation because holy shit that’s a lot of salt.
but 4 teaspoons equal 1 Australian tablespoon, while in the U.S. and elsewhere 3 teaspoons equal 1 tablespoon
Oh God, that’s even worse.
I had all four done with just a couple benzos and local anesthetic. Granted they were reasonably accessible and not impacted. I have vague recollections of making a pun while they were “elevating” one of the teeth. I don’t remember the pun, and that’s the worst part.
At least valnet made the list of their brands easy to find if you feel like blacklisting them.
Sony has the patent.
I did my endorsement test on a little 1975 Honda cb125s that weighed 200lbs (90kg) and had a very short wheelbase and a top speed of about 50mph (80kph) before floating the valves in top gear.
Barring that kind of cheat code, I like to stay in gear and idle/use a small amount of throttle to maintain balance (this will help the bike try to stand up in the corner). You can drag the rear brake and/or slip the clutch if you need to control speed. If you can easily raise your idle, this can help if you don’t have a steady throttle hand.
The most important part is to commit to the corner when you tip in.
Practice making continuous circles in an open lot and reducing the radius and speed. Get a feel for the bike in the middle of the turn, then make the path elliptical to get a feel for tipping in.
Gmail
The number of people that would break when they couldn’t access their email when they opened their phone… You could measure it with public health statistics.
I think you will enjoy this recent episode of the This Machine Kills podcast.
We discuss Quinn’s analysis of “new fusionism” or a mutant strain of neoliberalism that crystallized in the 1990s, which sought to ground and defend neoliberal policies through their own bastardization of biological sciences — cognitive, behavioral, evolutionary, genetic, and so on. They then used scientism to justify and propagate political ideas and economic models based on hardwired human nature and hierarchical differences between races, cultures, and intelligence. The fringes of the 1990s have now become the mainstream of the 2020s.
Proportional representation would go a long way toward fixing many of this country’s issues.
I sincerely appreciate this. You have further proven that I don’t know anything at all about other countries.
And an additional thanks for the thorough explanation in the linked comment. As a layperson, I knew different options existed, but I didn’t know what they were, or why.
I thought it was 10 gauge for a 30amp dryer outlet (NEMA 14-30).
And surely they used properly grounded 4 wire.
Unless it’s a heat pump unit, in which case I don’t know anything (some are 120?).
Or it’s in a civilized country with 240V, in which case I know nothing at all.
Mac and cheese with chopped hotdogs was a staple of my childhood. Used to drown it in ketchup to make people squirm.
Thought I’d chime with a similar background to say that after a year and a half of sabbatical and occasionally putting in great effort (4 hour projects and 3-6 technical interview rounds per opportunity of which there were a couple dozen), I have a job again. And all it took was a referral and a 30min phone conversation with the hiring manager. I’ll make a little less than I did before, but have zero expectation of overtime or after hours or oncall bullshit, and I won’t have a bunch of smartasses constantly tilting at windmills and bike shedding everything.
Don’t worry about saying/writing whatever you need to get over hurdles. We’re not playing in a field where bona fides matter anymore. LinkedIn is a cesspool of fake ads and fake applicants, indeed and monster are just openings for recruiters that will mostly waste your time. And remember to treat startups like the ancap throwaway experiences they are.
I will say I encountered a situation recently where an opportunity vaporized due to “economic uncertainty.” I expect those will continue to increase in the next few months.
