You can also use `powercfg /requests` (in Admin mode) to see if something is actively preventing shutdown. Sometimes it can be software + HW combos.

Do you mind if I ask what you did which restricts your ability to mixed grip? In terms of loading, I would expect your back to be loaded in a similar manner irrespective of the hand position.

I assume you've considered/use hook grip?

I think people might be able to support more than they think, but I'd also be sceptical that they could unrack 2x bodyweight without _some_ training.

Could they use a machine to load up to that point? Cushioned and loaded in a way that doesn't use traps/a barbell? Maybe.

I say this as someone who deals regularly with weights around that level, at a similar weight.

Having said all that, I do 100% agree that loading your back and getting the weight there are two different things!

It's worth noting that sometimes (incorrect) keyboard maps can get in the way.

If it's a key that you may not often type and one that is often transposed between regions, the fact that the entered char is not shown can lead to frustration.

e.g. " and @ are in different positions in UK vs. US keyboards. So user thinks they are typing @, but " goes into the box.

I don't think this was limited to Thinkpads, where I worked heavily used laptops that had similar features but were Dell laptops.

The laptops had connections at the bottom that clicked into the docks/stands, which you could connect external screens/peripherals.

Do you mean AMSL?

There was a great video recently on the company + techniques used for cutting-edge lithography.

Ocado (at least in the UK) pack items into plastic bags inside the crates, which makes unloading easier at the doorstep.

You are charged for the bags (in the UK you have to charge 5p for plastic bags) but are refunded when you return them (during a later delivery).

Did they make it illegal, or did they say that this now pushes you into the 'powered vehicle' category and the need to meet the requirements that come along with that?

Just to push back on this slightly, I'm sure I've watched Youtube videos with someone who bake cakes for a living who said they used boxed mixture for most of their baking.

As others have said elsewhere, some of the ingredients involved are not easily available/cost-efficient for the home baker. This means it's more than possible that you will get an objectively better cake from a mix, e.g. from blind tasting.

This does depend on the type of cake you're baking and your expectations of 'better' though.

I think another option is chocolate 'malted milk' (in the UK) - depending on your preference for ratio of biscuit to chocolate to marshmallow. Leibniz will have more/thicker chocolate, but malted milk will break a bit easier in the mouth (softer/crumblier biscuit).

I think that this might be some useful context.

Overall the debt held by the company has ballooned since the 90s, meanwhile large dividend payments went out to shareholders. This appears to be extraction of value out of Thames Water (TW).

It's hard to see those graphs and then take TW seriously when they complain they need money for investment.

For your 'Dopp kit' - do you have duplicates for things that you use on a daily (or more frequent) basis? e.g. Toothbruth, hair gel

While I follow this approach generally pre-travel, I find that on occasion I can end up taking the 'regulars' out of my travel kit for use and absentmindedly place them back in their 'normal' locations when using them as part of my regular routine.
