This just sounds like a manager has a metric of “all prescriptions must be ready in x minutes” and it is easier for the pharmacist to just click “it’s ready” before the alarm goes off.

Don’t confuse the old school glass flat tops with the induction ones. They use different methods and work very differently even though they look alike.

Skyrim gets it wrong too. These video game devs need to spend more time reading the scripture. /s

The guy is wrong. Dragons have 6 limbs, 4 legs and 2 wings on their backs. Like angels. What the commentator is describing is Wyverns.

Yeah, it is fun, but some citations would be nice.

North is determined by the rotation of the planet. The sun sets in the west, and if you are facing west, north is to your right. This is true for any planet/moon and doesn’t have anything to do with magnets.

I have a Synology NAS, and the account you create with them is separate from the ones you create on the device. They couldn't log into my device. Their account allows for easy integration with their stuff like the dynamic dns or other outside services. I like it because if my internet goes down, I get an email saying they lost connection, which is great for diagnostics.

If I set up my router to block all traffic to them, it would not prevent me from using the device.

This is true. You create a plex account, which allows you to log in from anywhere and will give you access to your media. The real problem is that if your outside internet goes down, you can't log into your own server.

My first thought was “this is why you use Jellyfin”.

I think I am using the wolf launcher. I have it set up pretty minimally. 95% of the time I just use it to launch Jellyfin.

It is a problem, my shield tv started having ads on the home page, but I was able to install a new launcher on it to fix that.

Overall having a media player plugged in to a disconnected tv is the way to go. It is easier to replace a chromecast than the whole tv.

Alpha Centauri was awesome, but so were a lot of the other games. Colonization was a lot of fun. Call to Power is the civ game I want a real sequel to. Going way into the future tech was a lot of fun, and being able to build cities at the bottom of the ocean.

Of course, I think the whole franchise has gone downhill since Civ IV, so take my opinion as you will.

It’s missing on purpose. There is not enough room for grains.

Does anyone know what the release schedule is for 0.17? It has some features I am interested in.

If it is just “when it is ready” that is fine, I’m just wondering if there is a plan or not.

ON TOP OF SPA-GHETTI!!!

Oh sure, you and your LOGIC.

This was very common in old-school Hollywood. It's why we have the term Movie Stars. People would go out of their way to watch an Arnold Schwarzenegger, Cary Grant, whoever movie, when the people who were really good character actors slipped in the background just making movies better.

My county changed the sheriff position from elected to appointed by the county council a few years back. A bunch of people flipped out over it but I think it has been great.

As a side note, why do counties tend to have councils running them instead of an executive, who would get the title "Count". We need more Counts in America.

It's pretty obvious she has a career writing magazine articles complaining about her life, so she should have some sort of income, and alimony shouldn't count. Never mind all of the infidelity that everyone else is mentioning.

Ahh yes, let’s introduce floating point rounding errors for one half. Sounds fun.
