Lead levels dropped

I’m using A 90 degree plug to baby my remaining plug

It’s a mechanical issue of the quality of the plug

At very least the Lenovo for a year or two around the time of the t480 and t490. Early USB C laptops requiring USB c charging really wasn’t rated properly for the constant plugging/unplugging.

Gentle on disconnect. Im using a 90 bend connector that is permanently on the remaining USB c connector.

If that fails too, will just spend a couple hundred and buy another Lenovo laptop. No huhu

Gentoo is great. I can configure it exactly the way I want. I switched to it after redhat went enterprise and never looked back. Stage 1 install.

However, sometimes packages get out of sync an I have build problems that need to be diagnosed.

Sometimes some packages get deprecated & I have to redo my configuration.

Deprecating python 2.7 was especially fun.

Back in the day, manual config of x11 was needed and that was fun. Back in the redhat days, the x11 configuration was in multiple places which was confusing.

Sound still is erratic after the laptop goes to sleep.

I did a manual transition from X to Wayland and that took a bit of learning.

Be careful of USB C ports. They are unreliable but absolutely required to charge.

Drones have to come down for fuel. Used mainly when there is a suspected target, not for general surveillance

Taiwan needs to have capability to credibly send bombers to take out three gorges dam. This is the equivalent to mutually assured destruction.

Aldrin deliliberately ran the approach radar which was not in the standard operating procedure

The US military used to have amazing logistics to the point that the navy built a mobile floating drydock &supply base to fight the Japanese without long supply lines.

This logistical prowess hasn’t been tested in decades and is showing weakness.

The US economy likely unable to build up to support a war economy. Everything has been outsourced to China.

A war with the PRC may prove embarrassing to the USA.

They ended a touch late. There didn’t seem to be a planned endgame and they wrapped up quickly and messily.

Pop tarts may need to be banned

1812 British burned the white house

Taiwan just needs the ability to take down one dam and PRC is in trouble

Luddite? How about using the wrong tool for the job?

Handguns in reality are not a very useful tool. Short range, low power, inaccurate.

There are very few use cases where a rifle wouldn’t be better. The only advantage of a handgun is portability.

This when there was a push to ban handguns, gunowners were willing to compromise.

When a decision was made to attack semiautomatic rifles by using made-up terms, the room to compromise no longer was possible. Next would be “sniper” rifles.

The attitude that anyone who doesn’t agree 100% is a Nazi or a child molester hardly is an attitude that engenders using consensus & compromise to achieve a workable coalition.

AOC not electable. Appeals only to west & east coast.

What farmer would trust her to look after Montana?

Harris was disbelieved when she claimed to own a Glock. Who would believe a similar statement from AOC?

I have no problems with this.
