No, that's why it's so cheap.
You can only install Damn Small Linux with no window manager.
Not all cd players had an accessible lens. A car deck had a slot insert and there was no way to get at the lens without disassembling the whole thing.
Computer CD players also had a tray that extended so the lens was mostly hidden.
Boomboxes and portable CD players had pop up lids where you could see the lens, but there were probably an equal number of players where you couldn't access it.
Elon Musk takes to X to beg retired air traffic controllers to return to work: ‘There is a shortage’
Age discrimination is illegal in the US for almost every job, there are a handful of exceptions.
Super Mario Brothers is what brought video games into the household.
This one game is why every game system was called "a Nintendo" for decades. Yes, other games came along and changed the landscape dramatically, but SMB1 created that foothold into the home.
Some states allow you to update your birth certificate after a legal name change. It's definitely not universal, and much less likely in red states.
If you intentionally turn on your sprinklers as a deterrent, and it does damage to a person or property, you'd be liable for that.
What if someone had important papers that you ruined. Or you broke their non-waterproof phone? What if someone was stepping off the sidewalk to let a wheelchair pass and you just doused them and the person in the wheelchair?
What if your automated sprinkler starts spraying the EMTs or Firefighters coming to help you cause you fell in your bathroom and can't get up? What if it shorts out the Lifepack they were going to use to check your heart and deliver an AED shock, and now someone died?
Automated booby traps are always bad because you can't judge the intent of the person, or animal, that might trigger it.
Shift-A and Shift-I to append at the end or insert at the start.
Once you know the system, it's much easier to do everything without having to take your hands off the keyboard to use a mouse.
Literally the only thing I code in at work. Have done so for decades.
Can't stop, won't stop.
I write code every day at my job. I use vim.
It does everything I need it to do, and it works exactly the same way on every system I touch, and functions the same way since I started using it decades ago (aside from being able to use arrow keys now instead of hjkl)
If I HAVE to do any coding on Windows, I use notepad++.
... if they can design and print a case they probably already owned a 3d printer. The amount of plastic used to make the small case is likely just a few grams. Probably around $1 of plastic total.
Yes, the article is pretty light on details since it's just a rehash of a couple of comments with no actual reporting, but don't blame the person for designing and printing a neat little case for their hobby. This is a perfectly acceptable way to repair and continue to use some broken electronics.
Bush 2 wouldn't have been reelected if it wasn't for 9/11.
We wouldn't have had the patriot act.
We wouldn't have spent trillions on the wars.
There's absolutely no way we would have ended up where we are right now if it wasn't for 9/11.
Mark Rober lost me with his porch pirate booby traps.
First of all, booby traps are illegal for a reason. Second of all, a lot of it was staged and it was pretty obvious.
Ha! I loved back bear forge during my year of blacksmithing obsession!
He had racist and anti trans jokes in all his videos. I wrote them off as just innocent friendly jokes for a while, but they were in ALL his videos. I unsubbed and blocked him after I realized it was a pattern with him.
Use the subscribe feed, not the home feed to watch your videos.

Yup, I just need $10k from each of you to get started. Once we spread the word you'll get back $100k or more!
Starship Troopers had the highest survival rate, so that one.
Absolutely not The Thing because you have no idea if escaping means the end of the world. You'd have to murder suicide the whole place.
Aliens... Maybe. It's survivable, but just barely. You'd probably want to hold a live grenade with the pin pulled the whole time, so you'd at least never have to be brought back to the queen.
They're TECHNICALLY still up there for political/budget reasons. If they wanted to buy a new capsule to go get them, we could.
But on the same note, ALL of the astronauts are "stuck" up there for budget/political reasons. We're not going to bring them up and down willy-nilly cause it's way too expensive. They should have come back months ago, but since they're original capsule was decided to be too risky, they pushed it back to the next available SpaceX capsule.
Elon is both arguing for an INCREASE in funding to go get them now (which is far too late, we wouldn't be able to safely prep and send a mission to get them back sooner), but also DECREASE funding for the ISS. Just whatever gets him attention and more numbers in his Forbes ranking.
