I occasionally hear "catty-corner" too.

Yeah, I mostly deal in m3 screws for my projects which, I know from experience, do get caught in type-A plugs.

Wow, great work!

Due my own personal bad habits, I fear I wouldn't see 12 years out of most of those because of the lack of caps. A lot of random stuff ends up in my pocket when I'm doing projects. Screws and other things that will not have happy fun times with bare type A pins.

They were most notable for producing the last season of Community and airing it inbetween buffering.

I like to put my petty pop-cultural grievances in documentation because I know if someone reads it I'll probably get an IM on the subject.

Use the entrance to the Astral Sea nearer the parking garage, over by the Cheesecake Singularity. Way nicer astral neighborhood, though everything costs a bit more mana.

as most level 2 chargers can add ~18 miles/he charging (overnight charge means 144 miles charge).

Level 2 EVSEs (the charger is actually in the car) have a wide cross-section of power delivery. Portable units are usually limited to ~20 amps and will do this level of charge. Installed units with a sufficient circuit can charge at a rate 40 - 60 miles / hour. They are also considerably more expensive and should be installed by an electrician (adding more cost).

For the record, Level 1 EVSE's (that plug into a US 110v outlet) only do 3 - 5 miles/hour. Important to know for US renters who might not be able to get a 220v circuit to their parking spot.

There's not really a threat in geostationary orbits. It's a much bigger area with far fewer satellites.

I grew up in the 80s and 90s and was a "Latchkey Kid" so sometimes I feel like my childhood first got the breaks applied when I started having to carry a set of house keys with me all the time.

As someone who's also needing to replace a 2007 Toyota soon, I am also curious about this. Cars built after about 2015 seem like nightmares of cost cutting (especially in their lack of physical controls) and surveillance.

 

Another great article from 404 Media highlighting the power that the tech giants have amassed over how how we use the internet.

This brings me, I think, to the elephant in the room, which is the fact that Google has its hands on quite literally every aspect of this entire saga as a vertically integrated adtech giant.

This extreme power over the adtech and online advertising ecosystem is one of the subjects of an FTC antitrust suit against Google.

 

There's been a string of security blunders in Azure in the last couple years but leaking a signing key and then trying to downplay it is really beyond the pale
