Am I missing something?

HandsOff2025.com is still talking about April 5 only, and fiftyfifty.one website says April 19 on the landing page but the “find an event” shows nothing for that day including in Washington DC.

What’s going on with that?

The way it works for power over Ethernet — and I assume USB power delivery must work the same way — is that it does not reduce bandwidth because they run the power and the signal over the same wires at the same time.

There is a a power injector at one end and a filter at the other end that separate out the high-frequency signal and the DC (no-frequency) power into different wires.

This is essentially the same thing as they’re already doing for multi-frequency stacking on those same wires (and on fiber) to get the crazy bandwidth in the first place. DC power is just one more low (very very low) frequency running on the same stack.

If that is true, please explain why all the chicken for sale in my country has gone to shit and good quality meat can’t be found anymore.

Regulations matter. Hold on to them.

I’m not saying “inflation means prices go up” I’m saying “inflation means prices went up”. There can be many things that cause prices to go up, inflation is one result of any such cause and of course then causes many things itself including further inflation.

In your scenario that’s inflation caused by price fixing. You seem to be saying these things are mutually exclusive but I don’t understand why you would say that.

Companies deciding to raise prices (for any reason — justified or not) is what inflation is made of.

Inflation just means “prices went up.”

I spent last Spring in Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, and Quebec. Had a blast. Land's End and the entire Gaspesie peninsula was beautiful. Watching the tides at Hopewell Rocks and walking on the seafloor while the tide was out was wild. Whale watching and eating scallops out of Digby was awesome. All manner of cool things in striking distance of Baddeck. PEI has... um.. a surprisingly interesting potato museum. Go for it!

I was so mad about those catapults. I’m still mad. That battle was just completely unforgivable.

It’s not like they didn’t HAVE consultants on retainer for this series already. Give me a break!

I need to go lie down now.

I can press the entirely local switch and have light.

Are you sure about that? Is it a local connected smart switch (still fancy electronics, just local) or a plain old power switch?

If it’s a power switch, and If you turned your lights off by app over the internet, and then the internet went out, then your lights’ ability to come back on when you flick the physical switch depends on somebody having thought about this need and programmed a “oh, the switch was flicked so I better ignore the internet settings” mode.

And if they did that, it also probably means your lights all turn on after a power outage since the light can’t tell the difference between power outage and light switch flipped off.

This was a really interesting article, thanks for posting it

Jesus Christ, man, flawed as they are they are the best we’ve actually got elected at all. How about we ADD TO THEM with more good and better people instead of trying to throw them in the trash so they can be replaced by more Schumers and Rubins?

Anecdotal story: I found on a vacation with no lights and no internet but lots of physical activity it just happened by itself.

Every night I fell into bed exhausted and slept deeply shortly after sunset. Every night in the middle of the night I woke up to go to the bathroom and wandered around for an hour or two like a Shakespeare character, then fell asleep for another shift until dawn.

Did not notice any effects besides being well rested from getting plenty of sleep which was unusual for me at the time.
