That’s the wonderful thing about a living language, if enough people start using a new word or a variation on the spelling of an existing one, it can simply become correct at a point.
The compound variant ‘usecase’ is often used in tech and refers to a very specific means in which a system is utilized.
Sounds like Cold Urticaria. Might want to see your doctor and carry an epi-pen if it affects your breathing.
Don’t worry, I Upvoted Not Because Girl, But Because It Is Very Cool; However, I Do Concede That I Initially Clicked Because Girl
A ‘digital rendition of Hell’… you even Doom bro?
Wasn’t the original Doom a digital representation of Mars and its moons: Phobos and Deimos?
Yup, need to tax leveraged assets.

I fully agree with you in wanting to keep your health telemetry private. I too baulked at smart watches for the same reasons. I hate the idea of such info being collected by any company.
I’ve found GadgetBridge paired with a cheap smartwatch to be a good solution for me. It let’s you keep your telemetry local and provides a GUI for the info I want: steps, heart rate, activity, sleep, etc.
It sounds like they have some support for AsteroidOS already too. They also claim “As of the next Gadgetbridge release, it should have full support for AsteroidOS, and feature-parity with AsteroidOSSync.”
Heh, ‘polyculture’ sounds like a word a friend would use when describing the new folk they’re hanging with after turning a 20-year monogamous marraige into an open relationship.
1st degree doesn’t mean premeditated, it means to the highest degree. A murder charge typically implies premeditation whereas manslaughter implies recklessness.
1st degree manslaughter sounds right to me, killing someone accidentally through extreme recklessness in this case.
I’ve also heard that in Alan Rickman’s final scene, the director called for the release of his harness early (as in hitting the quick release on the 1 of a 3-count). As a result, the look of fear on Alan Rickman’s face is genuine. From Rickman’s perspective, the stunt initiated unexpectedly.
If true, another bit of realism appears right there on Rickman’s shocked face.
Heh, in more ways than one
I merely propose that the original claim that ‘tailgater’s are idiots’ is only half the truth and it ignores that more often than not, both parties involved are being idiots.
Folk on the receiving end of the tailgating treatment often seem to not know about or care to respect their local laws on remaining L/R, except to pass. They appear to be ignorant of laws requiring one to pull over and allow traffic to pass if it impedes >N vehicles.
Does it excuse tailgating? No, of course not. But it certainly explains the cause of the frustration and anger that leads to it for other drivers who do care about such laws.
It may be your opinion that someone else is going ‘too fast’ but unless you’re an officer of the law, that’s not really your job to enforce. If someone wants to find out the hard way how sharp the bend is up ahead, I say let them.
Tailgaters are clearly giving off an unwritten signal for ‘you’re in my way’ and want to engage you in their risky behavior. I’m inclined to let them continue doing so in front of me rather than behind. More often than not however, I see tailgating escalate to brake checking, road rage, and two idiots clinging onto their senses of righteous indignation.
Just move over.
I forgive you
It’s just what comes to mind when people mention tailgater’s.
I agree that tailgating is unsafe and one could view the behavior as idiodic but there’s usually a reason it’s happening… to signal to you to move the fuck over.
If you are camping in the passing lane of a highway/freeway - I argue you are just as much of an idiot.
Ya, I don’t believe you can completely avoid it. I’m with you though, reduce the use of it in the kitchen and with food wherever possible.
Not only do I avoid plastic where heat is invloved but I also try and avoid plastic in places where mechanical friction or cutting is involved. Using steel mixing bowls and wooden cutting boards are two big ones for me to avoid adding bits of plastic to my food.
They were referred to as DTA’s - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_television_adapter
You’ll still require a means of amplifying and broadcasting the converted signal if you need true OTA but this gets you an analog RF signal (NTSC in the US) from a DTV broadcast.
I wouldn’t be surprised if you could take the output of the DTA and feed it to signal booster/amplifier with an antenna on the output and get short range OTA broadcast. Just know your laws on allowed output power.
That coax output you mention contains the OTA signal, but yes, you’d likely need to amplify it within the limits of your local laws to broadcast it any usable distance.
I believe these companies (Uber, Lyft, etc.) coined the term ‘rideshare’ primarily to skirt the taxi laws.
You see, they aren’t technically running an unlicensed taxi business - no, no, no. When you use their app to say ‘hey, I wish to go to the icecream shop on third’, it lets all the other people with the app (and a car) know. If any of them happen to also be going to the icecream shop on third, they can let you know and the two of you can connect to share a ride there - isn’t that nice!
These are in no way unlicensed taxis… That would be highly illegal and totally unfair to other taxi businesses that have to spend ungodly amounts of money to license their vehicles. It’s just you and a stranger sharing a ride to go get some icecream…
