Would Rankine not be an absolute?

Composing in a text document is the way to go. No point in being distracted by fonts and spacing and non printing characters. Just get it all down and then worry about formatting when you need to print it or whatever.

These are part of their own family of invertebrates.

Insects are a specific family that have 6 legs. So a bee or an ant are insects but a spider or a rolls polly is not.

My wife rolls her eyes how every time I see a Honda Passport I say “My voice is my passport, verify me”.

It says “Simon’s desk” which is the name of the guy making the post, which to me says he was testing the software from his desk.

When it is deployed, it would say “vaping detected in north stairwell” or whatever. They are not installing sensors on every desk.

I was thinking the same thing. The not wanting to know more is a really big red flag for me.

I love my shields, I have both the tube and the pro in different rooms. I like the Jellyfin AndroidTV app more than Kodi. I have side loaded a different launcher to avoid the ads.

I would love to try and replace it, but it needs to be able to handle 4K UHD rips with hdr and the original sound tracks in ATMOS or whatever.

That is a problem and I don’t have a solution for. It is tricky balancing free press and letting the rich just say whatever the fuck they want, but none of this is a new problem and I do believe that we can find a way to figure it out.

Trusting your sources has always been a problem. Newspapers have always been able to lie and it is up to the consumer to know the difference between the tabloid and the rest.

I don’t think there is that much of a difference between lying in print and lying in video.

I have a Yamaha YAS-209. We use our tv as a dumb one with a shield tv plugged into it. The Yamaha allows us to either run the shield signal through it or just have one cable going into the bar from the tv. It also has a subwoofer that connects wirelessly and we have it sitting behind the couch.

It sounds great and works well for what it is. The only problem we have is that when we change volume, there is no visual signal displayed on the screen. We also have a Yamaha receiver for the media room and it does a good job with on screen notifications but the sound bar does not.

Can SteamOS be installed on a desktop or is it only for the handhelds?

I got my wife a MIDI keyboard a couple years ago that used B. Ended up getting a B to C cable for it so it can plug into her laptop.

 

There has been several conservative memes about golf courses going away or liberals taking them away. Did I miss some news about that?

 

I have a DS920+ which I haven't upgraded the ram for, so it still has the default 4GB on it. Reading around, it sounds like Synology only supports adding an additional 4GB for it, but some other sites mention putting an additional 8 or 16 into it.

Has anyone upgraded theirs with more ram? What have you added and what were your experiences?
