This morning I got out of bed and killed a buffalo in my pyjamas. How he got in my pyjamas, I’ll never know. (After Groucho Marx).

Why Leftover Eggnog Makes the Best French Toast

Normally I’d agree. Fortunately I have the house well zoned so it’s only the master bedroom / bathroom. The rest of the house I let go down to a modest 66F all night (for the same reason you mention, i.e. letting it go any lower would make it expensive and / or slow to bring back up in the morning).

This sounds like a perfect match for the new Pi Zero. I have in mind a project to give my bedroom the same temperature pattern that our distant ancestors would have had, where sleep is regulated by temperature, not light. So I will use the Pi to step down the temperature during the night, reaching the coldest point…

and so far this looks like this was her first offense

Brady asks them to deflate the balls to the lowest possible standard every time.

Thanks. OneDrive has been implicated (although unproven) in a bug that causes permissions on user folders to get reset, denying people access to their own documents. So I’m turning it off to see if that helps.

It’s not a sneezeguard, it’s a teleprompter. He’s reading his order off of it.

That... is both hilarious and completely fucking brilliant. Somebody give Dan ALL THE STARS.

“The greens here are worth the trip alone”

True, but... I basically use mine as a safety net. When I wash dishes and pans, there’s always going to be some amount of something that goes down, and the disposal just helps protect against clogs. And by the way, my water doesn’t even go to a facility. I’m on a septic system.

Solid reviews on both Amazon and Newegg. I have a laptop with a 500GB HDD that is painfully slow, so it’s worth a shot. And if its bad I just go back to the hard drive and return it. Never had any trouble with returns with Newegg, so it’s very low risk.

I had almost the exact same experience. I actually ran myself through their price quote tool and it gave me a quote half what I was paying. So I called them up and they said “oh yes, they had just made some changes to the algorithm and I would definitely have gotten that same big reduction at my next renewal, but they…

+1 to the volunteering. There was a period of my life for several years after college where all of my friends were married or otherwise paired off, or had large families they spent the holidays with. So I would volunteer at the homeless shelter which (a) gave me something worthwhile to do, (b) put my first world…

As somebody with decades in the industry (not a MSFT employee), you are almost certainly completely correct. Patches and security fixes for old versions are a massive PITA for any software company. They are a drag on development and support resources but produce no revenue. Also, as a business, MSFT would much prefer…

I’m sure “people” do. I’m not. I clearly stated that the problem was that I had expectations of the app that were not what it was designed for. How is that blaming Microsoft?

And I’m pointing out that in fact the exact opposite is true, if you actually go back and read what I wrote rather than what you want it to say. I explicitly said that my expectations of the app were not what it turned out to be designed for. And no, you are not “calling me out”, you’re just being an asshole about…

You seem to be looking for a fight where none is to be found. I don’t know what your problem is, but you really need to take it outside.

What?

I mean “relying on that feature [of the XBox app]”. Sorry, I didn’t think it was that ambiguous?

I was surprised by the extent of the hardware limits and had to go and find an alternative at the last minute, which involved sorting through various apps with other limitations (e.g. watermarks, supported formats, works…
