Still waiting for progress from the team trying to get WSL approved for use at our org. We get a "still working through the red tape" update every couple months.

Several day's of 80+ temps, meaning it hasn't dropped below 80? Possibly it is just getting above 80 before you start your work day. And not dropping below until after your work day has ended?

I've experienced something similar except for temperatures below ~32-36 degrees. At this particular location it would result in a ~1hr outage going below that temperature, but not when it went back above it for some reason.

> I found taxis waiting in taxi stands in known locations of busy areas, or they would come if you call.

I'm guessing you live in one of the top 5-10 populated cities in the US. (Or a major city outside the US).

The issue is taxis are generally fine in these area, but outside being a dense population center calling a taxi is a flip of the coin.

There are ceiling cassettes for mini-split systems that aren't nearly as much of an eyesore as the wall mount ones are.

The commentor you've replied to says:

> The best faith interpretation I can come up with, is in fact for security purposes. It creates restrictions on (at least from Mozilla’s perspective) untrusted extensions. I mean how many extensions are there that do act maliciously? It probably isn’t trivial.

My best interpretation of that is it allows organizations to more easily allow some extensions while disallowing others.

Imgur is used for both regular content and adult content.

They can't guarantee a random picture uploaded by a random user isn't porn. (though they give a best effort). Additionally the side bars show what's most popular. In theory something NSFW could end up with a thumbnail on an unrelated picture. So they give you the warning ahead of time. (I've used imgur tons and never seen this.)

This picture was a graph.

Well it's not salt for one.

I think it's more like doing the wave at a large sports stadium.

Everyone isn't always in phase with every other station's phase at that exact moment in time. They're just in phase with their local part of the grid's phase. Though amount that is different is milliseconds, not seconds as in the stadium wave example.

This mostly came from reading this: https://electronics.stackexchange.com/a/291328

This my take as well.

I'll be doing the strike, and possibly an extended strike. Then I'll briefly return to see where the communities I follow are migrating to. After that I'll have no more need for reddit since most of the communities I follow are tech related and will almost certainly be looking for a new home should the behavior at the top continue.

Unfortunately as technology evolves our default operating procedures have to evolve too.

Take for example draining batteries until they die as the "battery health best practice". Obviously terrible advice for lithium-ion batteries.

Or advice to "never leave a car/lead-acid battery on concrete for longer than a few minutes." Which just doesn't apply with plastic/rubber shelled lead-acid batteries these days.

I'm not sure what a stop gap to replace the emergency check is, but I'm sure there are options.
