But how can we trust that your Standardized Banana is standardized to the correct standard? Has it been certified?
I don’t want no Metric Standard Banana (MSB).

He can pair it to the phone app or whatever on his device then; his fridge, his problem.
This is the best take I’ve seen yet, with the benefit that it’s literally already been done.
It’d be interesting to see what would happen if they tried to mandate this now, but I’m sure it’s already too late.
I just did front brakes on my mk4 Jetta…. in the middle of a west coast snowfall, aka “the world is ending, just like last year!”
Simpler, cleaner design than industrial equipment, and that stuff is made to be worked on by gorillas like me. Actual work time was less than shoveling it out of 14” of falling snow.
All hail the manual shitbox!
Honestly, there’s going to be a hard peak to how fast a 3D printer can go, because physics. Unless we start running prints in a vacuum and start tuning local gravity….
The snippet “if the batteries have a shorter lifetime than the appliance” worries me. Seems to me that modern engineers are capable of making their crap’s lifespan just barely shorter than the projected batty lifespan, and people might just be stupid enough to still buy it.
I mean, the disposable vape market is an extreme example, but somewhat relevant I think.
That being said, if the processor on the LG G5 had kept up with the market better, I don’t see how that couldn’t have been a starting point.
As for waterproofing, my GoPro stays waterproof but the side door opens to give access to the SD card, battery, etc, so it’s absolutely possible.
Two problems with the drivelines of modern cars: sensors, which can cause some pretty spectacular mechanical failures; and cost-cutting engineering. Trimming parts to use less material and that kind of thing, but also less investment in QC (looking at you, Kia engine recalls).
There’s truly more to go wrong in modern cars, and the electronics can fail and cause mechanical failures, too, especially in the combustion cycle.
Have you checked if you are me lately?
Except I did get a private diag after the public system one was a bust, but can’t find or never received the paperwork to give to my doctor (psychologists can’t prescribe here) and could never get through to that psych again, through email OR phone, and then gave up when the waitlist for another better public consult is 2+ years.
I cut out having friendships and most hobbies and am now technically functional and only slightly miserable, so that’s a plus.
My attention drifts too much when I drive auto, I prefer the extra thinking and functions that manual driving needs.
For those with a similar view on the subject, keep in mind motorcycles are still almost exclusively manual shift in North America, so when stick shift is basically dead, there is somewhere to go, technically.
Honestly, with how loud and nasty organized religion has been in North America this decade, it reminds me of a concept in training I came across recently called Extinction Bursts (https://study.com/learn/lesson/extinction-burst-psychology.html).
Basically tantrums because the thing that used to work, doesn’t work anymore, and testing if just Trying the Same Thing Harder will get them what they want.
I mean, there’s other kinds of public mental health institutions than full inpatient.
Why not have, say, a location with publicly-reimbursed psychiatrists and psychologists, where a person goes for an appointment?
I got what you mean, I was just agreeing with you, I don’t correct anyone until at least 2 hours after getting out of bed anyway.
TL:DR for the folks at home:
“The things the women in your life are doing, is providing service for the people around them….”
“Women also want a break, but we don’t get one if no one in our lives gives us one. [note: or if we take it, with all the risks that may or may not entail.]
No, it’s not just women; yes, it often is women due to social factors.
This kind of productive flow probably works amazingly- unless you have any other beings in your life, especially ones that rely on you for food, walks, and financial contribution.
Other life forms are where my flow breaks down.
A twice-weekly mailing list on cybersecurity sounds like a just punishment for their incompetence.
Then yeah, the waiting on the vet sucks but is the best plan. He may need an anti-nausea med. Call them if the email hasn’t been answered by a reasonable time (say after 4-6 hours of their posted opening time today.) Emails are less time sensitive than a phone call.
Food can be swapped or supplemented with plain baked or boiled chicken, rice, and puréed pumpkin (NOT pie filling!) if they’ll take it.
My vet gives a probiotic any time she prescribes an antibiotic now, it’s called Fortiflora and it’s a packet you sprinkle over their food. Maybe ask about something like that?
My dog taking chemo also has a standing prescription for an anti-nausea drug. If it’s this constant for your dog, you should ask your vet about options for the next couple of week.
I realized a latent autoimmune disorder instead! Winner!
On a few recent prints, I’ve used a bondic pen (https://www.amazon.com/Bondic-Activated-Waterproof-Resistant-Anything/dp/B00QU5M4MG) that I had lying around for seams on resin models. I haven’t primed them yet to tell how well it works, but the glue goes in quite thin and the surface tension seems to make a clean fill.
Electric kettle or stovetop? Important distinction!
