…and I don’t see it motivating people to go vote.
But it can do the opposite perhaps — “motivate” people to stay home who would otherwise vote R. Not that, in general, we should be celebrating voter apathy, but I think that some of these endorsements could dishearten folks enough that they end up abstaining.
I think you need to include energy cost in the preparation stage. Bread requires a hot oven, which is a real amount of electricity — it’s close to $0.40/kWh where I live. From this link it says that a bread maker uses only .36kWh, but an electric oven would be more like 1.6kWh. So bakita single loaf of bread, you end up with a not insubstantial fraction of the total cost going to heating the oven.
Of course, many bulk foods require heat, so it gets a little sticky this way. Oats/oatmeal probably wins out here, as you can just soak them overnight.
So we need to freeze our farts and thaw them out when we need them. Got it.
I always say I have a 1969 Wayne Industries Batmobile. Usually a sheepish, “oh, um, we don’t cover that, sorry. click”
I always prefer it without the dashes. And just add on HHMMSS while we’re at it!
I think (?) it’s generally true that the root user should never mess with users’ files.
Imagine your home directory is shared across many systems on a network (my alma mater did this). It would be really bad if a sysadmin for alpha.university.edu removed a program, and suddenly your personal settings were removed from beta.university.edu — even though that computer still has the program.
This is one of the “UNIX on the desktop” issues — a lot is designed for a sysadmin/multiuser situation, and it has some gotchas when using it as a desktop machine (I’m used to/really appreciate the directory structure and settings management at this point, but it may take some getting used to).
Where does $25M come from? ~260 work days in a year, and using the full 18k each way, is a little under $10M: $18,000×2×260 = $9,360,000
Still a ridiculous transportation bill, of course…
Edit: I think you increased the 18k by a factor of two instead of decreased, and used all 360 days instead of weekdays: $18,000×2×2×360 =$25.92M
Any chance you have a DMZ set up on your router?
On your router, are there any settings specific to any host (other than the server maybe)? For example, a static IP or a port forwarded rule.
Do you have a VPN on the phones? Can you traceroute from your phone to the server and post that? (I like PingTools for Android.) You should have 1 hop (you -> server, nothing in between).
Can you verify that you are on the same wifi including same wifi channel? Phone on 5GHz but Linux box on 2.4GHz, for example.
Some mobile clients make it easy to accidentally downvote. I sometimes see that I accidentally downvoted a comment from time to time.
PingTools has been useful for me (though I mostly just use it for iperf).
Right, I just meant that you can’t sudo cat file > /dev/sda but you can sudo dd ..., because IO redirection isn’t elevated to root with sudo. I’m not saying anything too profound :)
Compiling a kernel yourself isn’t a big deal these days, especially with DKMS. Generally the type of people I’ve encountered who care about which kernel version they’re usiyare the type of people who are capable of compiling it themselves…
One caveat is that you will need write access to the drive, which probably means you need to run as root — can’t run that with sudo as-is, unlike dd.
Also a super useful tool for measuring real world bandwidth, both on physical media and over the network ( dd status=progress ... | nc ...).
“Please, please, ladies — one at a time. No seriously, one at a time, the global interpreter lock can’t handle more than that.”
Only joking. Sorta…
Track placement matters more with vinyl, too (or tapes for that matter).
The song “Back in Black” is in the middle of album of the same name — but it’s the first track of the second side on vinyl. Like you said, it’s a part of the listening experience.
My toddler does that.
My kiddo is just a toddler, but in our VHCOL area, at this age the only thing that really matters is childcare expenses. If we had family/grandparents taking care of them, the additional cost would be pretty minimal, in the scheme of things.
The max contribution to dependent FSA (tax free account for daycare) is a joke, less than 2mo of care.
The material things we’ve needed probably amount to less than one month of daycare expenses (diapers notwithstanding).
Saving for college, on the other hand…
My favorite hypercorrection (a hyperforeignism, if you like) is “habañero,” and really stressing the “ñ” when you say it.
Except it’s just “habanero,” plain ol’ “n.” The confusion is presumably due to “jalapeño” having an accent.
The only flaw in Corel’s logic was that as soon as you’re running Linux, you lose all desire to run WordPerfect, and develop an irresistible need to align yourself with vim or emacs…
