I remember seeing something years ago that it was to essentially force people to go wireless, as that was their aesthetic and what they wanted people to see when watching others using a Mac.

It seems like in almost every thread, there are at least one or two cranky individuals that just downvote for the hell of it.

Any time a store asks for a phone number, I use the local area code followed by 867-5309, and 9/10 times it works

Looks for like a looney bin than a cheese grater

at any time SEARS could have jumped into the ring with the business they originally were instead of sticking to the clearly dying department store model.

It’s not even that, they could’ve easily kept their store locations. They just needed to move their catalog online and it would’ve been a done deal.

Hell yeah. That’s the same reason I dump money into my homelab; I have never been in IT, nor plan on it, but maybe one day I’ll finally get back into home automation and could possibly sell something to a client as a complement to my electrical business. But it’s damn fun to tinker with!

But you’re teaching yourself a valuable skill!

We got some of those trash cans that have to foot operated lid and a pretty heavy spring on the lid, they’ve been super helpful keeping our dogs out of the bathroom trash.

That’s what I mean though, trying to watch any YT video embedded anywhere without being signed in will yield that error, but I usually don’t have that problem on YT’s direct website, even without login. Still ridiculous, but so is Google

As much as it isn’t preferred, I can usually bypass the sign in shenanigans by going directly to the website to watch something without signing in. I usually only get the login prompt when going through my browser or a search engine.

I have two sets, one summer and one winter. Though not sure why put it that way lol

Because fuck you, that’s why.

America in a nutshell.

I wear my street shoes inside except winter. Both my work boots come off regardless. Also have house slippers. But I’ll be damned if me or someone put their shoes on a bed, or even a couch for that matter.

We found out a while ago that plumbing pipes aren’t the best way to ground a house for a variety of reasons, and this is why ufers (grounding to foundation steel) and ground rods are now the NEC standard. Also, this is why bonding wires are important as well. If the plumbing were bonded to a proper dwelling ground system, the current would find a direct path to ground and trip the responsible breaker, instead of using the gas lines as a big ass resistor and creating the light show we see here.

Underestimating the bed rail loading. I’d love to make a Ford joke, but let’s be real, all truck beds would crumple like that.
