Thanks! looks like exactly what I would want if I was a corporation issuing mobile devices to employees.

Pot-lucks, anyone? We do it all the time, with the simple rule: bring something that you would like to eat yourself. Then, if there’s nothing you like, it’s your own damned fault...

Just curious: why would I want Knox 2.6?

It might. I put a kill-a-watt on mine: 38W, which, to be fair, might vary a bit with picture content and contrast, This was watching a movie on Netflix in a dark-ish room.

My Samsung doesn’t get that hot - seems like they got a lot better, right up to 2009, when they were discontinued.

I have a 2009 model Samsung plasma (the last year they made them). It’s only 3" deep (4 with plugs jacked in), uses just under 40W, and, like the older plasmas, has great dynamic range, colors and view angle. (for those unfamiliar, plasma is essentially an array of phosphor dots, just like an old tube-type TV - but…

Use an orbital polisher (not rotary), then multiple steps,depending on how heavy the defects are

FWIW, engineering notebooks come with the pages already numbered. I’ve seen ‘em in graph or plain paper - and there must be some simple lined ones out there.

Recommended safe temp for freezers is 0F, 40F for fridges. see fda.gov Are You Storing Food Safely?

If I know a storm is coming, I drag my generator out into the driveway and make sure it’ll start without issue. I’m in the NE. We get blizzards here. Power out, even if you have gas heat, means no heat.

If you’re also looking for more advanced, check out fastrawviewer.com and libraw.com. They have (IMO cheap) apps that let you get a good handle on what your camera is actually doing, exposure-wise. Lots of good info on the site, including videos. d/l a free trial while you’re at it. (on sale currently, BTW)

If you’re looking for optical (vision correcting) goggles, the ones that come in a simple plus or minus diopter are worth a shot. Pity there don’t seem to be any currently that allow for a different diopter for each eye. If you can’t just try these on in-store but know your prescription, you add diopter and cylinder…
