Buying shit tier stuff is gonna give your a shit tier experience. Have more discretion in your shopping, which could mean holding out for quite awhile, and you'll eventually find a USB-C option.

"In fact! [Opens wallet] Hey Mac, now that you've announced your IPA I think I'd like to get in on the action and invest a little, what do ya' say? How many shares you got and what's your ask?"

"That's where you're wrong, Deandra. Corporations are people, an' they got a right to own property, votes, and elected officials as much as anybody else! So I say if Mac wants to dedicate himself to generating profit for his shareholders then that's his right and I'm not gonna stand by while you try 'an take it from 'em!"

No; dicks usually go in an oscilating or pendulous motion, while I simply go down.

Because I felt my wisdom teeth get pulled, and because I identify as a problem.

New CAPCHA just dropped.

Thank you.

Original article is overwhelmingly whimsical and lacks hyperlinks for far too much of the body.

That's what I like to hear.

This man's a heckin' chief.

Another factor that makes lithium-ion battery fires challenging to handle is oxygen generation. When the metal oxides in a battery’s cathode, or positively charged electrode, are heated, they decompose and release oxygen gas. Fires need oxygen to burn, so a battery that can create oxygen can sustain a fire.

Because of the electrolyte’s nature, a 20% increase in a lithium-ion battery’s temperature causes some unwanted chemical reactions to occur much faster, which releases excessive heat. This excess heat increases the battery temperature, which in turn speeds up the reactions. The increased battery temperature increases the reaction rate, creating a process called thermal runaway. When this happens, the temperature in a battery can rise from 212 F (100 C) to 1,800 F (1000 C) in a second.

 

Hello folks,

I just had a 'wake in the night' sort of idea (which is something I'm sure the Fins have a word for) so now I'm wondering if enough Lemmings could put their heads together to find some other, hopefully much better, solutions for loss prevention.

My idea, which I think is only good enough to get the conversation going, is to disassemble an Airtag, rig the Deck to support its power needs (I don't know how this would be achieved), and then embed the finished product somewhere (I don't know that, either) inside the case.

A hardware-side solution, like this, would allow the Deck to be tracked regardless of software changes.

If the solution is internal it couldn't be detected, and it could function regardless of power state —— but at the expense of the Deck's battery capacity. If the solution is external it could have independent power —— but would be detectable, snagable, and removable.

A software-side solution might be achievable, especially with Linux, and it would likely use much-less power —— but it would require the device to be not-off and not-factory-reset (which can be achieved with a few keystrokes in the settings menu).

What ideas do y'all have?
