Every single one of those temporary IP addresses has the same prefix, which traces back to you.

Its about as anonymous as adding an apartment number to your own street address.

i would say you want to route through as many jurisdictions as you feasibly can. For example, US investigators arent going to get any cooperation from Iran or North Korea; any trail that crosses into their borders is going to be a dead end for their investigation.

Inhaling from the bag and exhaling to the atmosphere, yeah, just a couple minutes before the bag is empty.

Rebreathing the same air by exhaling back into the bag, you'd probably get 5-10 minutes of usable air.

Could be weighted with rocks. As long as you exhale back into the bag, it would maintain its buoyancy, and would give you 5-10 minutes of usable air.

That's not what they are doing here, of course, but it's certainly possible.

You referred to Technology Connections. Unless I'm mistaken, he had an unhealthy obsession with UK plugs.

Our household wiring standards are intrinsically safer than the UK. They need the overbuilt outlets and plugs that Technology Connections likes, because the UK took so many shortcuts on their building wiring.

Can't really fault them: they developed those standards during a massive copper shortage. To minimize copper use, they ran as few circuits as they could, which means each circuit is drawing absurd loads. They developed "ring circuits" which used undersized wiring and are one loose wire away from an overload. They had to build excessive protections into their plugs so they could safely plug every device they owned into one high-power circuit.

We used dozens of properly-sized circuits.

you certainly won't find an outlook configured like that in a bedroom.

I've got one. My bedroom was designed to be able to use a 240v window air conditioner.

I don't actually need that, because the house was renovated with central air, but the outlet is still there.

I've got a 30a 240v outlet behind my stove, a 50a 240v outlet in my garage. I wired an 80a 240v circuit for my parents hot tub. We've got no shortage of power here.

The only thing that annoys me about the North American power grid is that we only have three phase in commercial and industrial settings. We don't bring three-phase power to the home.

You want to see stupid, go look at the ring circuits they play with on the UK grid. Completely unsafe.

Dick cancer is better than almost all the existing ones.

Its only "basic needs". Paraplegics are still human. you dont habe your fingers anymore, but you've still got two extra arms, two extra legs, a spare lung and kidney, and a bunch of other stuff that you don't technically "need" as a human.

What responsibility, if any, does the customer bear in avoiding harm to himself?

The onions in question are a burger topping, and are readily discoverable if the customer checks their order. I think that the customer with the special requirement can be reasonably expected to verify their order meets their needs before incurring harm.

I believe he's already suing Sonic for the same issue. He knew (or should have known) this was a mistake that restaurants can potentially make, yet he apparently made no effort of his own to mitigate the risk by checking his food before eating.

I would argue that it is "reckless" for the customer to blindly trust the worker fulfilled the special instructions, and that this "recklessness" is the primary cause of the harm incurred.

I would say that the restaurant's liability here is the cost of the "defective" burger.

 

I do steady, part time work as a blacksmith, because I love it.

I also work for a hot air balloon ride company, again, because I love it. But, the balloon business is seasonal and weather dependent. We fly about 8 months out of the year, and about half our scheduled flights are canceled due to weather.

I'm looking for one more hobby/gig to do in the off-season or when it's just not flyable.

Something more interesting than DoorDash... I really don't want to go back to that.

Z59.71 is a medical diagnostic code for "Insufficient health insurance coverage".

It's a diagnosis that should never have existed.

 

The Outrageous: Homeowner Lannie Fentress was beaten and arrested for trying to put out a fire in his own home.

The Interesting: A special grand jury assembled to investigate the charges refused to indict Mr. Fentress.

The Amusing: That same grand jury turned around and indicted Police Sgt. DJ Newton, the arresting officer.

Gripe #1: From inbox, replying directly to a comment, I get the error "Could not determine post to comment to". I don't have this problem when I am viewing a comment in a post's, thread, only when viewing it from the inbox.

Gripe #2: Tapping the comment in the inbox takes me to the comment thread for the post, but does not take me to the specific comment within that thread. In a long thread, I can't always find the specific comment I am trying to reply to.

Edit: version 0.2.4

Edit2: Gripe #3: haven't figured out how to edit posts within Thunder; had to switch to Connect to make these edits...

 

I am getting this error pretty regularly. I'll see a message in my inbox, and when I tap through to view it in context, it's missing. Can't find a cause or a workaround.
