Another vote for “well-written”. I have read both, and both are good if they’re done well. Besides, I don’t usually have the option when I find a book, the summaries rarely tell me and I’m not gonna dig through the middle of the book for the answer to this question.

What I care about is being able to connect with the characters. If I can connect to someone in a realistic relationship, great. If I can connect to someone and they get that idealist treatment, great. If I can connect to someone and it seems like a romance but it’s abusive and the book becomes a realistic horror novel, that’s also great, I’ll feel the fear and desperation.

I never have wanted to read a book to have a specific experience, is my point. If your experience was well-written, it would be good.

Well they still have a finite life and are less replaceable than a battery. Even if it quadrupled the lifespan (which is a reasonably generous estimate given OP’s 4-year duration and wikipedia telling me supercapacitors last 10-15 years), it would still eventually need to be replaced and that would generally require resoldering it.

I think a much better solution is 2 battery slots, one to be a backup battery, unused, and then when needed, an LED on the mobo can be turned on. Honestly OP could jury-rig up a similar system if he wanted to, although it’d be a bit ugly and anytime something is jury-rigged I don’t really think of it as reliable.

The only real solution is to make this an extended maintenance task. The batteries are cheap so an alert every 4 years is likely sufficient to replace the battery before it dies. You could do it every 2 or 3 years instead at your discretion.

That’d be funny and also still accurate. It’d end up being one of those asterisks.

I think that’s a fair result.

Either way, they’d be allowed to sell the 99.99% boneless wings, despite them technically not being guaranteed boneless.

We aren’t really carving an exception though. The condition of something being free of another substance is always a percentage chance.

My hand sanitizer only kills 99.99% of germs. Should it not be allowed to be called hand sanitizer because it cannot kill all of them? What should it be called? Hand almost-sanitizer? Those germs could get me pretty sick if I lose the cosmic lottery.

There’s always a point in reality where “good enough” is actually good enough.

I’m not actually saying this company has or hasn’t met that standard, I’m not an expert in poultry production techniques, but saying something needs to be 100% perfect to be sold doesn’t make things safer it just means it’d be illegal to debone wings without grinding up the chicken. I dunno the actual odds but it sounds like you’re already more likely to be struck by lightning than this occurring, and I’m still willing to go outside while its raining.

Logitech G400ish.

I cannot recall the exact model anymore. After I lost the second pair, I was in a spot where I didn’t really need headphones anymore, so I can’t check.

I had that headset. First lasted 5 years, second about 1 year. Not a defective product, just a dog. Good headset.

That’s old testament. What Jesus said overrode that.

Its a very common mistake since a lot of christian groups pull their hate from the old testament.

Specifically, Matthew 5:43-48

And, to be clear, worshipping another god remains a sin in basic Christianity, its just not an excuse to not love everyone.

They’re being sarcastic. You can tell by the list of people that have supported him linked with sexual assault.

The correct answer is to find someone who isn’t facing towards you and stare at their back.

Alternatively, if you put your hand on your chin like you’re thinking of something, then you can stare at your food while looking like you’re thinking, instead of like you’re sad.

If the security camera has alerts like a decent baby monitor, then I see no need to change.

If you already intend to have security cameras, being able to have one that works as a baby monitor but is completely integrated into a real security system just seems like the best of both worlds.

If you currently use the camera to spot check your baby, with no real alert system for issues, then I’d jump straight to a security system that’s capable of that to reduce price over time.

I had a security camera with a built in mic, a cheaper one, and besides getting some false positives, it worked perfectly until my kid didn’t need one anymore. I got an alert on their app when it detected sound and I opened the camera, it wasn’t straight audio, but all I needed was a notification to check it myself.

There’s a separate weights and measures office here https://www.nist.gov/pml/owm

I’m not sure exactly what that’d change about this situation, but they seem to publish standards based on industry majorities, so there’s a proper baseline.

This suggests it’s not necessarily a malicious thing as suggested, but just pre-covid rules that expect businesses to not do significant work from home.

Still, it means a lot of businesses are making this decision with tax breaks in mind.

I suppose because it’s harder to prove murder. Since he failed, they’d have to prove motive, and he could argue he only wanted to harm the lawyer.

But assault is about facts, no feelings.

Obviously you need a bluray player per disk and then RAID them together. Simple. Also a lot of extension cords and USB hubs to coordinate all that.

Yeah but 2e is the newer one, and is default now. Assuming 1e is like assuming 4e for DND, it just doesn’t make that much sense.

If the chart was gonna include 1e, it would need to say so explicitly.

Just because the world has started copying onion articles doesn’t mean the onion wouldn’t make fun of someone by making an article about them bullying a 12-year-old.

I wish the world had a bit less overlap with onion articles but this one is definitely somehow oniony and realistic at the same time.

Poker chip maybe.

You can also get a custom AirTag skin and put that skin around something else (probably the poker chip, or a broken AirTag) to have a perfectly sized photo for the slot.

Sadly, too many would be afraid to be a good name. Sets itself up as a target.

Encyclopedia is “general education”, referring to its broad scope. Wikipedia added wiki as a reference to the source, so the best one would be {source}pedia.

Fedepedia isn’t awful but feels… bland, in my opinion.

Something like consolidate is a good synonym for it, but consolipedia also doesn’t feel right to me, so if we’re not referring to the federated part, we’d have to refer to the decentralized part. Decentropedia is fairly decent, but I’m fond of Micropedia, because the root word is very common, and I feel it’s catchier than decentropedia. Either of those are good though.
