There’s also the Longaberger Basket building.

Every giant stadium is about the same.

A monument to the arrogance of some developer (et al), who then bilk the state/city for the cost.

I would never allow non-corp equipment to connect to our network.

Pretty sure if you set the path in the shortcut to the Firefox executable and passed the URL as a parameter it’ll open it.

No one said anything about “being owed sex”.

That came right out of YOUR head.

Hell, I’m old enough to be a parent/grandparent to most of Lemmy, and I learned metric over 40 years ago…in a small rural US grade school.

Guess what - back then the UK still hadn’t fully settled on metric, they didn’t “fully” convert until the mid-80’s if I remember right.

And they still use feet, mph, stone, etc, as they choose.

This whole metric arrogance thing is tiresome (and I vastly prefer it for many things, because of Base 10, so really it’s a Base 10 preference).

That’s the key.

That said, I’ve always bought ~2 year old phones. They usually have batteries at 85% life (or more).

I haven’t had fast charging hurt one significantly yet, and I’ve used it a lot on some phones.

Of course, I avoid using it as much as possible. I use a slow charger (1A,max) overnight and it’s on a timer. On rooted phones I use a charge limiting app.

Space is cold, but since it’s a vacuum (a great insulator) keeping things cool is a greater challenge.

There are a range of tachycardia/arrythmia that you can have since birth that may not show up until you’re older, or get triggered by certain meds or nutrient deficiencies (things like potassium).

I wouldn’t ignore this for a minute longer. Maybe just walk into urgent care and ask if they’re equipped to check it out (basically EKG). I know my urgent care is.

If they aren’t equipped, then go to ER.

But please don’t sit on this any longer. Some arrythmias are fairly benign, but if it’s happening repeatedly, it will eventually cause tissue damage that you don’t really fully recover from. Plus you don’t know if yours is benign (and most docs would say arrythmia is never benign, even if it isn’t killing you in the moment).

Stitches don’t necessarily mean ER.

Guess it really depends on your urgent care.

For the most part, I’ll go to my urgent care unless I know damn sure ER is needed (the urgent care is in my network). It’s no farther away, (ER is a couple blocks away), and urgent care is less out of pocket. If they determine ER is required, they’ll say so (and recommend ambulance if they feel it’s necessary).

Basically the triage nurse will assess and make a determination.

I’ve had family go there for cardiovascular issues (and be treated and sent home). They’re fully equipped to stabilize someone if they need to go elsewhere. They have a full complement of equipment, including radiology (everything but CAT).

Keeping in mind the object with the larger mass will (over those millions of years) pull the smaller object closer in all dimensions/planes

It’s still hard for me to get my head around, it would be great to see an animation showing this with perhaps 3 or 4 objects. It’s especially hard for me to visualize the gas cloud around a star coelescing into a plane, even before the more solid objects form.

Is this because of rotational mechanics around the star?

Depends on who your dear is 😁

Is helium used in deodorants these days?

Overrated.

It’s surprising an experienced deep sea explorer would go along on something like this.

When I first read about it, it took me less than 5 minutes to discover many, many reasons it was a bad idea.

Wow, I hadn’t thought it through like that, but yea, you’re right.

One or the other. Pick.

Hahahaha, I love it

That’s why you practice this stuff. It’s the only way to make sure you won’t slip under pressure.

It’s what I had to do - just make it a natural response. “I’m not well, I won’t be in”. Just keep repeating it, regardless of how many times you’re asked why.
