You probably do. The apps for sound metering aren’t half bad nowadays. Certainly not calibrated, but are usually within +-5 DB from the couple of times I actually tested it against our gear.

I can’t say this enough - Good on her.

I’ve had excellent success with Prime Rib, easily the best I’ve ever had, but methods of finishing it was always the concern. The best luck I’ve had involved 24 hours in the water bath and then an hour in a wood smoker (as opposed to 6+ hours in a smoker without sous vide). It turned out magnificent. That said, I’d…

Developers play test that level of realism all the time. Turns out players hate it because they felt cheated. Extra Credits on youtube is an excellent series and they covered this in detail in an very interesting way.

I’ve played Farcry 2-4, you do understand that they are political too, right? You might not get all of the references but how other nations perceived, and reacted to the protagonist is highly political. 4 literally had you leading a resistance fight against a dictator....

Google Sells Ads, thus they block ad-blockers from the App Store.

For those who haven’t seen this, this design, while not incredibly common, is better established internationally (Europe seems to have embraced it more based on my travels). However, more and more hotels in the US are using it as a cost saving measure to know when a guest is in their room so it gets tied to lights and…

+1 for the BIOS schedule paired with Task Scheduler shutdowns. This also ensures that if you use backup software that it has an opportunity to run.

So pretty much any hotel is cool with this as I’ve posted before - and they are appropriately prepared and insured. If it’s not a hotel where you are staying just ask and see how it goes. I asked several times when I was just in town for and in-and-out trip and every single time hotels have been cool with holding my…

Thank you for the timely article! I’ve got a trip to central america in April and just caught a few mentions in the travel articles that I’d noticed, but none were particularly helpful aside from saying take precautions.

High quality wireless headset for conference calls (with desk stand for charging) - so I can pace and get steps in while on client calls. I try to get away from my monitor while talking to prevent distractions unless we’re doing screen shares.

Given the depth of the tires but lack of trenching & slung sand piles especially around the rear wheels this might be some guys practicing retrieval methods rather than accidently getting stuck in sand.

It’s exactly as filling as 400 calories would normally be. For hiking, keep in mind that it’s a shake, or even if in mix form requires oil so it’s relatively heavy for those 400 calories.

As a very frequent traveler, I can’t recommend paying for this app. First, this info is often freely available. Second, for a bit more, you can get access to Clear - which is basically a line skipper pass for the TSA wait lines. It doesn’t let you bypass screenings that you’d normally be required to meet, just the…

Disability law requires a support animal be properly trained for its role.

When picking hotels, check what food places are nearby, especially if using Lyft / Uber. Several locations like the Residence Inn near the airport or the Marriott on I-35 are not walking distance to anything of note. Thankfully GrubHub and other delivery services operate all over the city, but there are several areas…

If doing the Salt Lick for BBQ (not the mini-location at the airport) locals will warn you it’s a drive (it really is out of town quite a ways...) but beware that it is a cash only affair. There are ATMs but it’s wise to know ahead of time. It’s also bench communal seating. Second, beware old Garmin GPSs with out of…

My security briefing was that Specter includes both Intel and AMD and that Meltdown is just Intel. ARM processors were not clean cut on which specific ones were impacted, some were, others weren’t but it wasn’t easy to categorized at that point.

To be clear, AMD is impacted by Specter in the same vulnerability issue. Less easily exploited thankfully, but still an issue.

I’ve gotta wonder if there will be an aftermarket front bumper conversion that uses the updated headlight assembly. As a 2016 owner, I’d be tempted.... I was already tempted by the Rocky Road steel bumper just to change the front looks a bit even though I don’t really want a permanently installed winch on my daily…
