Out of curiosity, is there a reason that this couldn't be an Android app? I would think that there should be some way to check a cable's functionality by plugging it into a phone and a computer.

I had video but no audio.

I'm in the Indianapolis area and just got off the phone with my home owners insurance company about damage to my roof. They are attributing it to Hurricane Helene.

In my 40s I had to have a signed document from my wife giving me permission.

Arkansas: It's the Alabama of Floridas!

I'm in the Indianapolis area, and we do have public transit... though I don't know why.

I kept putting it off... I wanted it when I was 20 but couldn't afford it. I still wanted it at 30, but didn't want to spend the money. At 40 I finally had more than enough in my HSA to cover my annual deductable, so I scheduled it. And I've LOVED it! However, around 45 I noticed that my near sight isn't as good as it has been. Now at 48 I'm realizing that I'll soon need reading glasses.

I still think it was worth it... but I REALLY wish I had done it in my 20s so I could have enjoyed going glasses free for all those years.

I'm loving the juxtaposition of the headlines:

it's important to master blood magic and necromancy, so you can make use of the whole body

Isn't this the main tenant of Christianity?

We need municipal datacenters that can be integrated into the municipal water departments, and municipal electrical grid. Use the hot water to provide 'on tap' hot water for local businesses that need it.

Oh, don't worry about upper management, they can continue to work remotely - but they'll still have dedicated offices in several locations in case they are forced to travel. And that will be one less office for the schmucks who have to come into the office.

And this isn't just Amazon. This is an orchestrated push by the CEOs of many large companies, all conspiring together to claw back some control of their employees. And you'll do it because fuck you, of course you'll do it... what choice have you got?

I refer to them all as 'The Library'.

Did you know you can borrow movies, books, music, and TV shows from The Library? It's awesome!
