I already had a rocky relationship with my dad after he made some questionable statements concerning COVID, but there are 2 distinct memories that just keep popping up.
No 1 was him helping me move into my own apartment while my maternal grandfather was dying in the hospital. We were talking about vaccinations (a requirement to visit patients) and how me and my brother got one, he started tearing up and said something about how kids shouldn't die before their parents, how egotistical we were for getting vaccinated, and how we'll die in 2 years.
No 2 was a few years later, we were standing on the sidewalk after having watched a movie, and someone had hung a pride flag from their balcony across the street. And while I'm not part of the LGBTQ community, I have good friends that are, and am firmly of the opinion that people should be allowed to do who and whatever they want to, as long as everyone involved consents. However, my dad apparently felt important enough to complain about how that's just "gay propaganda" and how he "isn't against it but they shouldn't force it into everyone's face" and so on.
My guy, it's a flag. On a balcony. On the 4th fucking floor!? Chill out.
Torx, excluding TX27. Just use 25 or 30. For consumer devices or anything that gets turned by hand Pozidrive is okay, although it sucks if you're using a drill, and impacts fuck 'em up almost instantly
This is about OEMs, which realistically only have 2 choices: Either sell it with windows, or Linux pre-installed.
The general public isn't going to buy a device without an OS installed.
Because small scale breakdowns are irrelevant with today's power grids. Redundancy is provided via the next city/country nearby. Importing the power might be a few cents more expensive during peak hours, but that's nothing compared to the costs of having an outdated power plant doing nothing for years.
However, the real answer why he's being down voted is because it's a pretend intellectual argument favoured by people against renewable power generation, without actually contributing anything of worth.
Re: Swimming
Strong maybe. During the face down portion definitely, but when they turn their head the skin's still wet, however your brain definitely knows that there's air to breathe, probably automatically overriding that reflex.
RE: bobbing
Kinda. Especially small children and toddlers are incapable of overriding that reflex, meaning they can and will "drown" when that part is submerged.
The bobbing motion is just more efficient (for 99% of untrained swimmers).
You'll do the same when exhausted while swimming.
Your body generally isn't buoyant enough in a normal swimming position. Which means you'll want to keep your lungs as full as possible, resulting in quick exhale, inhale, and then recouping (and sinking) while being lighter, requiring less force to resurface.
If you have a strong reflex, you can kinda try it out yourself at home, get a glass of cold water, pretend to drink with a closed mouth and slowly tip the glass back without breathing. When the water is almost touching the "base" of your nose, try inhaling. Most people feel some sort of internal "resistance" and don't want to inhale, that's that reflex.
(Disclaimer: Obviously people are different, and this reflex naturally gets weaker the older you get.)
Another interesting fact is, it slows your heartbeat significantly. If you have someone there with you, or have a watch that can record your pulse, fill a large bowl with ice-cold water, submerge your face in it, and you'll immediately lower your pulse.
(Don't do this with any sort of heart related issues, and maybe try just cold water first)
When shopping online, you have 14 days after receiving without having to specify any reason. In store it depends on if the customer had the chance to look at the product. If yes, there's no requirement to accept intact and functional goods.
In both cases you have 1 year where the manufacturer has to prove that the product was intact when you received it (e.g. it's not a design/production defect).
The customer then can choose if they want to have the product replaced, repaired, or returned. (Within limits, if the price of repairs are uneconomical or the product no longer exists, the seller can refuse)
At least in Germany you then have 1 year where the customer has to prove that the defect existed at the time of sale, and there hasn't been any "irregular or improper" use, for the seller to be forced to either repair, replace, or return the product.
It's called the "diving reflex". There's a small area right between your upper lip and nose, that, when getting wet, triggers your body to stop breathing and slows down your heartbeat. IIRC it's something all mammals have, but you can 'override' it. It's pretty uncomfortable at first, especially the first breath, but you can train yourself to ignore it after a while.
Get those sticky paper strips. You might have to wait a few generations, but after they "hatch" they don't immediately reproduce, but instead look for food first. That's the small window where you have to get them.
Importantly, you have to keep the strips up at least 1 "cycle" after you've caught the last fly!
Motorcyclists are so much more likely to hurt/kill themselves in an accident, compared to car drivers who are much more likely to injure/kill someone else while only sustaining minor injuries.
I consider it a rather strong incentive to ride safely.
Furthermore, riding a bike is a much more involved activity compared to driving, which makes distracted driving a lot less likely.
Dams usually already have maintenance infrastructure like prepared crane positions on top for inspections, so even bigger jobs like replacing panels can be done during regular inspections. And just switching some cables only require personal climbing gear
Some people just straight up don't carry cash, so it's only 2 cards that most people need in their day to day, which fit in your phone case ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
We can debate whether that theft was ethically permissible under those circumstances. But they still committed theft. The act itself does not magically stop being theft because we understand or sympathize with the reason behind it.
What?
By that definition nothing is theft unless ruled such by a court.
Which funnily also means that if someone takes anything but doesn't get caught, they haven't committed theft?
Ergo any corporation powerful enough cannot commit any crimes, due to not being sentenced.
That's bullshit and you know it.
This isn't about if the guys stealing the copper committed a crime or not. Obviously they removed property without consent, which is theft. However, is there such thing as "good" crime? Yes. Same as the mother stealing formula for her baby, or the homeless person stealing bread, or these guys stealing copper from AI data centres.

There's like 3 use cases for slot heads, and there they're worth their weight in gold. Everywhere else however? Fuck 'em.
If that's what you're seeing you might wanna go see a doctor.
I mean they exist, but it's like.. 3 people?

It's AI slop

Not that it makes much of a difference, but 25% according to your source

That looks so cool, thanks!
