It wouldn’t surprise me if an accidental load of static electricity got inside the electronics. Would certainly take a while to dissipate through air, especially air trapped inside the device.

Nevertheless, it might be worth trying grounding all the terminals that usually connect to the battery.

It’s either that Cameron seems to have been influenced strongly by Disney or the archetypes and symbolism in popular stories.

It doesn’t surprise me that marketers figured out that people going through a break up is an audience to profit from.

The Vatican is going to hate this even more, ever since the Pope voiced his concerns over AI.

This is probably one of the most genuine showerthoughts I’ve seen in a while. (insert meme of man and woman in bed: woman reckons he’s thinking about other women)

And it doesn’t work on water.

He was fully conscious that science models behaviour but doesn’t - maybe never will - give the purpose behind it.

This is actually scientifically proven, you sure you weren’t just recalling a tidbit from the news cycle a while back? Heh.

I think my 8th grade kids would find this funny while we are learning about cellular respiration.

Yeah, this is glorified nether portal.

There is something different on that plane but no, it’s not death. Search ‘astral body’ and go from there. Or read the Tibetan Book of the Dead for a general breakdown of dying.

I’m guessing it was just 50-100 pixels more on the bottom to include the artist. Hmm.

Good spot

While I disagree with identifying the working class with ‘chav’, the origin of the word did start very much in classism and stereotyping (hence my deep disagreement with the term). A pretty good analysis in this article: https://eathealthy365.com/the-rise-and-fall-of-the-chav-in-british-culture/

The commenter said ‘soaking up benefits’, I don’t think the working class people would be looking like ‘chavs’ because many of them are going to and from work in uniform. Plus, you’re essentially equating all working class people with chavs? So walking into a Tescos, every member of staff is a chav?

Making coffee like a barista is infinitely more satisfying. A combined coffee machine: grinder and pressured hot water is bound to be cheaper than a fully automated one. You can push the grains down yourself, and make the coffee as strong or weak as you like.

As expected, ThinkPad. I have a Yoga X1, the stylus and touch works fine. But if you’re installing Linux take great care of to have copious amounts of swap or swapfile because ram is low.

Damn right! You don’t need therapy to disconnect from people, unless they were a focal part of your life.

I don’t judge beautiful smart people outwardly, but by their actions and behaviour. For example, beautiful and shrewd woman who rises to be a principal in a school, speaks loudly on the phone when a quiet accountant is talking to me, hangs out with her ‘friend’ (colleague) the majority of the time, proceeds to make a student drop a subject discreetly without informing the subject teacher, and attempts to make me cover a class with a ‘polite’ request that didn’t give the option of ‘No’. It’s only been one month!

I wouldn’t be able to use a timer for an accurate cooking anyway due to being 2000m above sea level.

You can certainly feel it when walking up four flights of stairs.
