In the "USB-A/B" section, they're all labelled "Type-A", the 3rd and 4th should be labelled "Type B". It's also missing - mini-b 4 wire (older phones, etc) - micro-b 4 wire (most electronics prior to type c) - micro-b 8…
Until daylight savings time ends and it's 1:30am twice. Time is hard.
This was mostly true until about 5 years ago. Over the past few years, housing prices have gone up substantially all the way through Abbotsford and started affecting Chilliwack.
People don't consider it a reason not to go on an interview because 95-99% of job postings don't include it because they know nobody else does and they can get away with it and applicants don't have a choice. If a…
Of course the final salary is the last thing negotiated, I don't think anyone is going to argue against that point. What job seekers are begging for is a salary range being included with the job posting. Not doing so…
Salary is the single most important thing to know about a position. If a job doesn't pay enough to cover my mortgage, I couldn't care less about the commute, the inclusive culture or how great their lunchroom is or even…
Introvert here. I gain no energy from interacting with others, ever. I may find certain group activities fun, but definitely do not gain energy from it. The only time I seek out others for an activity is when the solo…

I've been using vim user for about 10 years and a colemak user for probably 9 years. At first I remapped the hjkl keys to maintain the muscle memory for movement, but ended up going down the rabbit hole of remaps.…
Because the player's computer needs to know where the enemy is in order to render them on the screen, create footstep sounds, calculate shadows, etc. As long as the player has ultimate (root, admin, etc) access on that…
Huh, I've never gotten a prompt like that in Terminator.
I think you've touched on two separate issues. The first is with human interactions with the businesses (firefighters finding the building), the second is dealing with official paperwork and interactions (filing for the…
I'm guessing the system was built to handle extended (8-bit) ascii, which contains the accented French characters. Upgrading a system of this size (and potentially many other systems it needs to trade information with)…
Canada is even worse, we can't decide which one to use so you never know what format it's in. I was once sent paperwork to fill out that had dates requested in both MM/DD/YYYY and DD/MM/YYYY formats on different pages.
Yep, and then when the insurer declines to cover an incident because the company neglected proper security, you do NOT want to be the person with "security" in their title.
Disclaimer: IANAL If I run a service, I can add pretty much any requirements (barring anti-discrimination, accessibility laws, depending on your jurisdiction) I want for use of that service. If I saw you can't use my…
Fine, but that in no way prevents them from releasing them simultaneously.
A quick note on some liquid fuel stoves/lanterns. If it gets sufficiently cold (-40 in my experience, different brands and seal materials may vary), the rubber seals on the pump can freeze to the point where they stop…

No, but if I were a bat designer, I would be hesitant to sell a baseball bat full of nails under the guise of "meat tenderizer". Even though it may actual work as intended (tenderizing steaks), the way it is most likely…
As a long time puppet user, I started forcing myself to use ansible for my homelab so I can learn it's intricacies and limitations. Recently I had a use-case where I wanted to re-use some data from a defined variable…
