Holy crap that's bonkers! Thanks, you've blown my mind
Or in the case of American politics, arrogance is bliss
Now just hang on a minute, this is the internet after all! How dare you have a sane and rational take on the situation!?
I demand to be called the spurn of a worthless whore ...or something!
Thanks for confirming I'm still a dumbass :)
Wow, that's cool. Completely makes sense but not something I'd thought about...
Would the temperature differences need to be very large for this effect to occur?
See above comment about this not being donations from the company but the employees.
Also, in surprised IBM owns lenovoo - never saw that coming
Holy shit, is that the actual sauce? I had no idea about where this came from!
...or both. Think about it, if what you've said is completely true (I don't disagree, BTW), why would they bother subsidising?
They're trying to ring fence the market. That the US is helping then is only vaguely related
Yeah, sure - that's still China trying to undercut and ensure the US remains reliant on them long term...
Yeah, that's our state-sanctioned duopoply at work!
(to be fair, I am willfully ignoring nuance and some mitigating factors)
Honestly, that was their best album. The hip-hop all had so much noise that went over the vocals, it was awful (same issue with black thought and the roots, really)
This isn't competition, it sounds like the CCP heavily subsidises the manufacture, in an attempt to kill the American industry off.
Thinking in decades or centuries is a very powerful tool!
Wow, I bet that would stick to the roof really well (with enough force)
Agreed. Totally cock blocked himself for family (I'm sure there's a better joke in here somewhere)
Ah, I think I'm going to need a few visual aids for that plan...
As an EUC engineer deep in the Microsoft fustercluck: fuck Microsoft. Fuck teams.
That shit's abhorrent. All the ex-mobile developed stuff just doesn't translate to classical computer methodologies (probably largely due to the very different UI/UX and OS design differences)
You are absolutely correct. I was being intentionally simplistic due to the harsh edges of the morning
Thanks, that brings done useful context here

This is a phenomenal (but short) album, has anyone got other equivalent they're sleeping on?
It's very proggy, which I love, but also very heavy. Super-tasteful use (sparse!) of blast beats, etc
Dunno why, it just seemed funny
The sector regulator has applied to the Gambling Commission to suspend SkyCity's operator's licence for alleged breaches of host responsibility rules.

I'm delighted about the chance of this even happening. I'm under no illusions, however after the abortive duopoly review of our supermarkets. But this isn't comcom and had a clearer harm to the community, so maybe it'll happen?
God, I'd love to see it revoked entirely, but maybe there'll be some clearer oversight...
> The company said it had invested significantly in systems to maintain the highest standards of host responsibility best practice, and prioritised minimising the impacts associated with problem gambling.
As. If.
So I've got some rusty old floor screws that I can't loosen with a Phillips head (they're old, so I'm betting it's not posidrv). The notches are all rusted and it hardly bites at all.
If I drill them out, I know I'm in for a hard time but am I better off going for a really fast rotation or slower?
And should I start with a narrow drill bit and work my way up (historically I've broken a few doing this in the past) or just begin at the intended diameter?
Yes, in fact I do work with computers - isn't it obvious?
I've hidden this 'cos it's a dupe and the other has more accurate conversation
Welcome to today’s daily kōrero!
Anyone can make the thread, first in first served. If you are here on a day and there’s no daily thread, feel free to create it!
Anyway, it’s just a chance to talk about your day, what you have planned, what you have done, etc.
So how’s it going?
I'm curious what other folks are doing pressure-wise.
I'm fairly lightweight (70kg, possibly after lunch? With back pack and water, who knows? I usually carry extra tools, etc...), and run 2.6" 27.5/650b tires.
Rear is around 20psi, but it's tubeless so I generally catch it once it's slipped down to 15 or 17 after a few weeks :). I've just realized I'm not even sure what the tire is, but it's a maxxis brand, so probably actually 2.4" wide compared to most other companies - not much clearance on my Intense Recluse
My front is usually about 18psi, on a specialized 2.6" somethingorother (pretty sure it's not a butcher)
So, I spent most of the day troubleshooting a website that drastically slows down when 'a browser looks at it funny'...
Usually it behaves fine - it's not the volume of requests, my teammates think it's something about the kind of requests. But they're struggling to get the logging properly configured.
I'm an EUC engineer (p.o.s. website requires IE11 and ActiveX controls - yay healthcare!), so mostly helping on the sidelines, but I'm looking for some 'supportive' suggestions...
