I guess in my case the batteries may have had enough to signal they were functional, but they were effectively dead and had no UPS backup sustaining power. One battery had started to buldge its container. I can see it as being an as designed feature, that way they never let you down in a powerfailure event, as you get advanced notice that the battery is no longer working LOL. Had a corporation go down a few years ago, they had not replaced UPS batteries, when power wentout all UPS batteries were dead and couldn’t sustain the servers until backup generator came online.
My CyberPower is 14 years old now still working fine, just needed battery swap at 10 year mark.
Haven’t had this happen. Battery pack failed after 10 years. Unit still provided mains AC through battery backup plugs. There is a switcher inside to flip between mains and battery…maybe that was going bad in what you describe.
Why not sata or nvme drives?
I don’t think they mean brainwashing like a scientific technique to wipe your mind, but their are countless examples of a person in a cult or church or radical group where the constant bombardment of propeganda and apparent correctness ( by number of believers ) alters the persons belief system.
Might have been this product line https://trash2treasure.wordpress.com/tag/ralph-lauren-smoke-glaze/
Yeah, should have been more descriptive. I have purchased smokers homes. Getting walls and ceiling clean was a nightmare. The Ralph Lauren paints was part of their antiquing collection?? I believe. It had various types like heavy smoke, light smoke and nicotene. They were sort of a translucent after finish you applied. They would not give the stickiness of nicotene tar, but give the yellowed over layer. You could paint on thick, but it looked like many used the spray on and dab off, to get either smoke or nicotene accumulation at corners and have general wall the chosen colour. It found it hilarious that people would be spending top dollar on Ralph Lauren with purpose of making your wallpaper or painted wall look dirty. But maybe it got used to remodel heritage homes or movie sets to get the era right.
Went to my dads work, and at the time our school still used punch cards and ditto machines a lot, and my dad’s work had a photocopier (WOW!) that he gave me free reign on. I photocopied a bunch of images onto transparencies , then arranged those on top of each other for some final copies. It was like building an image in Photoshop with layers, at a time when graphic art would have been 100% manual cutting an pasting of actual paper and vinyl tape spools. Pretty awesome day.
People’s intrusive thoughts can vary greatly from things like suicidal ideation, thoughts of swerving into oncoming traffic, inappropriate sexual stuff, but can also include theft etc. Not everyone is disturbed by them to the point of fixating on them either. Some people know how to let them flow in and back out without giving them power
I guess some people have trouble with impulse control so intrusive thoughts sometimes become actions.
Salt: in the ground for millions of years.
Mining company: dig that up and slap an expiry date on it
For a lot of applications the correct time may not matter but for something like homeassstant or syncthing you want your container time to be correct on a restart
Meh, this one depends on where you lived. We had parties, lots of time with friends and hanging out, plus relationships…it wasn’t until Grade 13 (which was a pre Uni course year) where we had so much homework, especially 3 uni level math course…just doing calculus for hours after school.
When I was doing some interior work and searching paints, Ralph Loren paints had a Nicotene stain to apply over colours or wallpaper to give it that smoke era feel. LOL
GNOME for sure. My wife really struggled with Windows 7/10 interface because options and settings are all over the place, and filemanager was inconsistent. Set her up with NixOS and GNOME. She no longer gets in a tizzy over the OS
Different distros deal with securebot differently. If you try OpenSUSE, secureboot works: you will be asked to enroll your keys after the install reboot. And you will see the ooensuse-secureboot entry in the UEFI boot order list.
I figure we may see documetaries in yhr next decade on how Vape industry was complicit like the tabacco industry was
Yeah, value of a product is what market will pay. If gov tops up your funds to buy things ( in a free market ) the prices go up. And then if you aren’t focused on just your economy, but global like you mentioned, the global buyers may really want the product, raising price higher, or not want products making unequal trade. I need a “Economic Theory for Five Year Olds” book
pwd even when the bash prompt tells me where I am
