That's actually a 50% profit margin. Also known as a 50% markup, even though you marked the price up by 100%.

Tripping and falling can mess you up for a long time. And I don't mean broken bones.

A1 steak sauce. Been around for 195 years, hence the GP didn't feel the need to expand.

And they all have Firefox and LibreOffice Calc installed, so you can teach them how to use a web browser and a spreadsheet in an OS-agnostic (and DE/distro/WM-agnostic) way.

The fish came from there too.

The ocean is salty. And dumping manure on a field can prevent growth, if you do too much. So I would think some degree of dilution would be a good idea before dumping it in the oce…

Well mostly true. You can replace an inefficient (turns power into heat) antenna with a more efficient antenna which will then radiate more. And some frequencies are regulated by e…

Doesn't seem to allow port forwarding so I think you're probably good.

Are they truly open, or are they captive portals? Of course, it might be possible to exfiltrate data through a captive portal network, depending on how they implement the portal.

In that case, would it pay to call for an elevator going up, and then remain on it until it's being called down?

Do your neighbors have open Wi-Fi? I'm a country dweller, but when I'm in town I look at the Wi-Fi list (in horror) sometimes, and it's really rare to see an open Wi-Fi network.

Also, btw, the 'mag' part of the breaker is irrelevant. The magnetic component is for sudden large overcurrent events, to provide a quicker break than what a bimetallic strip can d…

Very true. Sorry for misreading your comment. I thought perhaps you had a non-eink ereader and were equating eink screens with ereaders. Apologies.

It wasn't obvious. My thought process was that they were equating ereaders with eink displays, and they had a non-eink ereader. To me, emitting light and reflecting light are compl…

The issue wasn't heat generated by excessive current, but heat generated by excessive resistance and normal current. Mag breakers and fuses won't help. A thermal fuse could work, p…

Eink doesn't emit light.

One awesome thing that SPF/DKIM/DMARC did... Now that spammers have "adapted", it means they can't say their email is from @mybank.com, or @microsoft.com, or @facebook.com, etc!

Not a lot of whimsy and delight in having your glue joint fail because the delightful & whimsical website gave bad advice.

5G has more range than 4G on the same frequency bands. 5G UWB has less range than 4G.

You can actually ditch the GUI and go to the command line with OpenWrt and do custom/weird/power-user stuff to your heart's content.

Looks like OpenWrt supports that model, so going that route would be an option of not having locked down software.

I just had double jaw surgery so I'm "eating" though a straw (or syringe). At least I can order regular food with this.

Maybe just the best marketed?

If you see chips where a chippy is working, that's fine. If you see sparks where a sparky is working, get a different sparky. :)

I think people getting blood usually have lost a bunch of their own first. And blood isn't usually given just for fun, it's to save their lives, i.e. PFAS isn't a huge concern at t…
