My EE course did include safety training as a prequisite to using advanced lab equipment. Some really did not pay attention. “What’s this [left] terminal in the [Euro Type F] socket?” − “Umm… phase?”
“And the other one?” − “The other phase?”
“And we gave TN-C-S, which means the pin is neutral?” − “Yes”
“Go read it again” (He passed in the next round)

Where is the bill? I pasted the sentence into DuckDuckGo, picked “Last month” and no relevant results

I wonder what that means /s

Invidious is just an alternative frontend, much like Piped. It’s against YouTube’s ToS but that does not need to concern you (in most jurisdictions, you can’t get prosecuted for using or recommending a website that breaches a civil contract). The videos are still being pulled from YouTube’s servers so only those YouTube will serve are available (albeit under conditions YT would not approve of, such as without ads, with free broader playback speed options etc.). However, the server’s location can be used to bypass region-locked YouTube videos, which might be considered priracy.

Also, there are client-side alternative frontends like NewPipe, Revanced (modified official proprietary Android app) and Grayjay (with optional features like Subscription Exchange and Polycentric integration relying on FUTO servers).

This is about a week before they stopped shrieking and started living on their own, so not really babies anymore. Here’s one of their parents, a shitty 1.6MP photo from a 15-year-old camcorder. I don’t have the storage to process the (720p) videos right now.

I feel sorry for disturbing it, it clearly needed a rest from 3 weeks of care. And this was a small tree, just some 6 m above me, any recent DSLR with a telephoto/zoom lens could have made a picture as good as the one in the post. The younglings were higher up though (some 15 m diagonal line-of-sight), you can tell they’re in a dense linden as opposed to a bare branch of a walnut tree… And they wanted to take a look at me, bobbing and circling their heads… Unfortunately the real action is at dusk, the only video I have of them eating and flying is a blurry, noisy silhouette…

My neighbor has a phone with a periscope telephoto lens, this is the best picture.

We had a pair of these close to where I live! I don’t have a camera nearly as good, though.

Yes, it’s by a guy who thinks inciting a violent attempt to overthrow a major democratic institution should be protected as free speech. And did not even come up with the 1984 reference himself, just parroting Don Jr. See this video by Jacob Geller about why such a wide spectrum of people points to Nineteen Eighty-Four, that’s where I got the information from.

Don’t forget how this cartoon originated:

• 2021-01-06: Failed coup by pro-Trump degenerates storming the Capitol (Trump denies involvement but his tweets from the day definitely played a role, as decided during the impeachment proceedings in the following week).
• 2021-01-08 Trump is banned from Twitter in wake of the scandal.
• 2021-01-08 Donald Trump Jr. tweets: “We are living Orwell’s 1984. […]” (Yes, shown as Jan 9 shortly after midnight but that’s in UTC)
• 2021-01-09 Conservative artist Gary Varvel publishes this cartoon.

Look at what’s “behind” the decorative railing posts

Scammers and low-quality content producers. Truly the people you want to succeed in business.

It’s a robust system: when a bone is fractured and not straightened before healing, it will eventually get close to the right shape.

Is an osteoblast posting this? They hate constantly getting their hard work removed by osteoclasts.

That’s like 10⁵ size discrepancy (30 mm/3 km).

(That would be 30 nm/300 Mm, or 10¹⁶. Also there’s ⚛️🌌, 80 pm/800 Em, or 10³¹.)

I already use unattend scripts for the rest of my family’s Windows shit… I add irm https://christitus.com/win | iex at the end too so I can then install cool stuff

And no, I’m not upgrading any Windows 10 stuff rn

Drive letters? (Yes, they are stupid and don’t work with MTP but I won’t explin /dev/ to him)

We’ve been using Classic Shell since Day 1 of course. I modded it to quit qBittorrent when Mom opens the Shutdown dialog* (yes, she always opens that awful window) because that takes the longest to terminate. I’ll use it plus Explorer Patcher on 10, a semi-transparent taskbar without blur is so handy

* Classic Shell Start Menu can run arbitrary and predefined commands from buttons but not both at once. The Shutdown dialog can only be triggered with a predefined CSSM command or JS script so I’m using a VBS script (unlike BAT or JS, it can run silently) that runs the JS script and taskkill command.

I’ve seen the whole series and I hate French. Krankenwagen is so much better than “aamboulaans”. It’s a Wagen for den Kranken!
(Yes, that’s referring to the “It werfs Flammen” video)
