We have to stay alert and precise. We cannot let him sneak up on us like that.

And also with you...
A few years ago I was in New York when a truly massive rainstorm hit. This thing was a drencher of amazing magnitude, but what struck me was seeing men and women carrying their shoes and running around barefoot. I mean, it made sense in terms of not ruining the shoes, but if I did that almost anywhere else, my feet…
What, besides making this film?
Generally true as a rule, but there are important exceptions. Palmer’s is an example.
I bet you’re willing to buy Palmer’s.
Milka is very good, indeed, as are RitterSport and Lindt. But Dairy Milk once was a reliable, wherever-you-go, inexpensive chocolate.
Agree and disagree. When I backpacked around England in the summer of ‘83,I would buy two things at the hostels we stayed in: Alpen and Dairy Milk bars. Alpen I used to be able to get occasionally at grocery stores, but I haven’t seen it in a while. But Dairy Milk...
Nope.
You can get tiny audio recorders that will capture several days’ worth of recording. They look like USB sticks and run around $25 or so (and you can also use them as USB sticks). They generally don’t play back very well (but DO solid record MP3 files on the stick. IF (and it’s an important IF) your state is a…
That’s not harassment nor assault-y. That’s straight-up sexual assault.
Silence is, indeed, golden. Back in the day, I once owned a CompuAdd 386. Nice machine, but a little too loud, so I bought a Silencer power supply from PC Power & Cooling, and the difference was worth every one of the $150 or so I spent.
This just happened to me! I ordered a new router, at Spouse’s request, on Sunday morning; it arrived Monday afternoon.
Yay for SPDs! I have size 13 feet, and have never experienced the “dreaded hot spot.” Cheap and effective.

My point is that the connector, either on the PC side or the drive side, may not be perfectly “in spec.” Sometimes, adding a USB extension can make the difference. My example was microUSB charging, but the same theory applies when you’re dealing with signal lines—if the copper/gold/aluminum/whatever doesn’t make a…
How often do you reboot your phone? Sometimes things get confused. I have an iPhone SE, and yesterday couldn’t get bluetooth to work at all. Rebooted the phone and all is well.
Have you tried an extension cable? There’s a reason I ask:
USB cables and ports are surprisingly variable. I have a couple of devices that need microUSB connections to charge. They will only charge with certain cables...it’s not that the cables are different electrically—it’s apparently a difference in the physical…
Many years ago (we’re talking NT 3.51 days) I worked, inter alia, PC phone support for a company that built a high-end engineering product that ran on multiple platforms. One day I got a call from a user who couldn’t get her number pad to work. She said our software was not responding correctly—when she pressed a…
Back in the day (let me be specific: late 1970s), Yoplait (which you could then buy as plain yogurt in the small containers) was actually a much less firm product than, say, Dannon, and was much tastier—a sharp, sour-ish taste. So I don’t exactly know what they mean by “cup set,” though I suppose I’ll have to try it.
