  • I used it many years ago, perhaps 10, and started using it again because it allows me to rename PWAs. I have four instances of Frigate running for various locations and now i can edit their name based on location.

  • My 36" TV is fine, you monster.

  • As an employee, I take offense...

  • Spoken like a true MBA. I call this trash Buzz word salad.

  • I noticed the last modified date on some of my mp3s recently and realized almost all of them are old enough to drink and some are nearly 30 years old :(

  • Most electric vehicle motors (or any motor, wind farms, cordless drills, etc), speakers, and medical MRI machines need them and lots of them. Kind of important and America has been asleep at the wheel on this topic for decades.

  • At least she even comments. Mine just waves her hand in disgust. She knows it enables her whole technological life, but couldn't give a shit.

  • Uh...

  • I thought it was a joke until someone at my company gave a company wide presentation on how to use AI to accelerate coding and st several points flat out ADMITTED he didn't know what the hell it was doing but you just need to 'baby sit' it and you get useful scripts out of it. I'm a hardware engineer and I wanted to scream at him.

  • Check the power supply too. Those mini PCs just use a cheap laptop power brick and sometimes they can't sustain their full output anymore. I had one server constantly crash and once I swapped the power brick I never had a problem again.

  • Because those boomers who are broke were attempting to keep up with those who actually had money. I know a few examples...

  • Yes. Because educated individuals dont listen to talking heads.

  • When cutting aluminum, push very gently. And when the raw material gets too small, don't try cutting the last little piece. Small working material will increase the chance of accidents. I set my limit around 20 cm.

    This. So much this. Even when cutting wood properly on a mitre be careful with little pieces. You simply cannot control or hold really small pieces. Almost lost some fingers and scaring the hell out of myself making that mistake.

  • Cool and dark, he would just toss them in baskets in a dark space that didn't even stay that cool. He might have picked them before they were ripe but I dont remember.

  • Lemons if stored correctly will last 10 months. My grand father would just toss them in a dark storage room in Greece and they lasted until the next harvest.

  • I think you can get away with it for aluminum, but just be cautious and slow knowing its not the ideal tool. I'm sure it will work through since its such a soft metal. Just listen to the motor in case it protests your feed rate.

  • That looks like a mitre saw, but you mentioned you want to cut aluminum. Be careful, I believe mitre saws are for wood only and spin much faster than a chop saw which is designed for metal and spins slower.

  • Sorry I skimmed it and read New England in America, because we also had a very wet early summer. Plus everything is always about America, right?! Please just ignore me.

  • We better build a wall, summer is coming. We can staff it with convicts and keep all the illegals out who were unfortunate enough to buy land in the wrong states.
