Look, all I know is if I buy a computer and it breaks up with me and fucks off to another dimension, I'm asking for a refund.

It's not about voiding a warranty, it's about having a warranty claim processed.

You can maintain your stuff all you want, but if your shit breaks, and you want someone else to pay for it, you're going to have to let them fix it.

That means taking it to best buy, or another authorized repair shop.

Except that won't be valid for warranty repairs. If you want your computer fixed at the manufacturer's cost, you have to take it to a manufacturer certified shop. At least Best Buy can handle it locally and you don't need to sent it off.

(note: haven't seen the new Spider-Man yet)

I hate the infowars JJJ. I always thought about him as a fairly respectable journalist that just has it in for Spider-Man for some reason. Mostly cause his early career was very suspicious, and he assumes the worst.

But the crazy conspiracy JJJ... Naw, that's just kinda lame.

You're assuming that you're falling down the stairs, and not just free falling over the ledge.

printables has a "no ai" and a "no politics" checkbox. I almost never see AI or political prints with that turned on

It could be that their work schedule makes it so they're not home for meal times, but are home for other times

It could be that people happened to be traveling for this and most cats are fine with an occasional day or two home alone.

It could be that some of them are really bad with daily scheduled tasks and need something to help take that load off.

Maybe consider not being super judgemental about how people manage their pets, there's perfectly reasonable reasons why people might want, or even need, an auto feeder.

Yes, because two decimals of accuracy is very important here. The kiln keeps temperature that tightly controlled.

Copy/Paste it into notepad, then copy/paste it from there into whatever else you want it.

That's been the go-to for removing weird characters from text since the beginning of time. You SHOULD do that any time you copy text from any web page to remove any hidden text, or weird formatting.

That is an option. For smaller setup, capacitors are used for high peak demand applications.

Sometimes a mixed setup is just not worth it, cause the peak demand is the important part, so you end up with like 80% LiPo and 20% Na.

But I'm certainly no expert on the economics of infrastructure battery installations.

Kind of, yes. But more importantly, it also means it can only push enough power to run at 3c. And that's probably not for the full charge of the battery.

So a 100 amp hour battery rated at 3c can push out 300 amps. Which also means that if the grid needs a short spike in power, it might be limited.

It shouldn't be too hard to get a 15c LiPo battery, which could push 5x as much energy at peak demand.

You'd probably kill the battery if you charged it from 0-100 at 15c, but for short bursts of charging and discharging, it should handle it just fine.

Do you ever get tired of finding the worst in every situation?

Virginia isn't even the biggest problem, you don't have to smile and dance, but just don't be angry about it for a bit.
