I’ve worked for very large organizations (30k+ employees) that didn’t use crappy paper.

All depends on the company.

You mean probably the most popular pics of her?

That was an extra, I wouldn’t worry about it.

“raw dogging the Internet”… I chuckled out loud

One day, after I am done with -insert reason here-, I will have a bad ass, well thought out backup solution.

For some reason you’re “insert reason here” was dropped by lemmy. I guess a sequential less-than/greater-than messes with it.

Right?

$450 and a toaster to use something like the external batteries I’ve used for a decade.

Nope.

Just watched them all a few weeks ago, still very funny, see nothing wrong with any of it. The movies are all about absurdity.

Giving him shit about it

Are you one of my siblings?

God I hate compressed file support in explorer.

I even disable zip support. Let me use my own app for that.

Wow, I never made that connection

Are the links you added from the article or some others you found?

What kind of douchebag do you have to be to behave like this?

How many languages do you speak perfectly?

OP’s English is pretty damn good.

will depend more on whether Ryobi kills off the USB Lithium line like they did the Tek4 line.

This is where learning how to rebuild your own batteries cones in. Nearly all of them use multiple 18650 batteries, which cost about $2 each online.

I’ve rebuilt a few for my power tools. Larger ones cost about $10-$15 to rebuild. And newer batteries have greater capacity too.

Very good point about Agile.

As an end-user (that is, the IT staff that will be deploying/managing things), I prefer less-frequent releases. I’d love to see 1 or 2 releases a year for all software (pipe dream, I know). Once you have a handful of packages, you end up with constant change to manage.

I suspect what we end up with is early adopters embracing the frequent releases, and providing feedback/error reporting, while people like me benefit from them while choosing to upgrade less frequently.

There are about 3 apps that I’m a beta tester for, so even I’m part of that early-adopter group.

Except I’ve had experiences that aren’t explainable by alm this:

Discussing a random, never-thought-of-before idea with a friend, in the car. Neither of us had ever thought of this thing before (honestly don’t recall now what it was). Discussed it for 2 minutes, then moved on.

Later we’re both seeing related ads, yet neither of us searched for anything.

And it was something way out of left field for both of us, that neither of us had ever thought of before. The related ads were so jarring that we both told each other about it.

Oh, and my phone was rooted, de-googled (lineage), with heavy restrictions for the apps, no social media (I still don’t have any accounts with any of them, except here), etc. The other phone was an iPhone.

I’ve had a very similar experience.

Once discussed something, out of the blue, something I’ve never been curious about in my life, in the car, with a friend who also has never thought about the same thing.

Hours later we’re both seeing related ads.

Now, I get that the amount of data required for such analysis is supposedly outside the bounds of what phones can do. But I can’t see any other explanation. Neither of us ever searched anything in this subject, we talked about doe a couple minutes and moved on, never doing anything about it. We have very different interests, too.

Since they’re on a garage door opener, they’re probably designed to be very simple to operate. Not to malign electricians or general contractors, but they don’t have the time to deal with fussy mechanisms - they’ll deal with it once, then never use that brand again.

Since the hole is at an angle I’d guess they’re spring loaded but manually operated. That little slot on the top of the orange buttons looks designed for a flat screwdriver to push it down, opening the clamping mechanism, and it’s spring loaded to come back up and clamp the wire.

Also, looking at the shape of the body and orange parts, they can only move in/out.

Just my guess. Can you shine a light into the hole and see the mechanism at all?

Try pushing an orange piece in with a small screwdriver and little pressure.
