With a non pc sound system this track could be used to crash nearby PCs.

The article says they implemented code to stop the PCs playing frequencies that could crash themselves or others nearby.

Also I can infer from this that there's a frequency for 7200 and 10000 rpm drives. I wonder what tracks would disrupt those ones?

More and more I'm realising this is all just a massive house of cards.

We (the UK) hold a load of US debt and the US holds a load of our debt.

So the net value is zero.

It's like me lending my mate £20 and him lending me £20 and we claim we're each worth £40. It's so bonkers when I word it like that but that's how it seems to be.

COVID knocked all global trade in that period.

The major issue I had with this is that it plays into the alpha male misogynistic ideal of strength.

Some of them will almost certainly see it as a badge of honour. That they are so dominant that some stupid women (their opinion) will misinterpret that and get into trouble with a bear.

I was trying to come up with a way to rephrase it.

Something like would you rather be alone with a man or separate but you both have to eat a bowl of dog shit.

If women choose the bowl there are nasty consequences for both and it's clearer they would rather deal with that than the man.

Nowhere near as catchy though...

Didn't he buy twitter with a loan backed by his Tesla stock?

If that's the case and the price is falling enough then the bank could/have called that in. Resulting in the forced sale of his stock.

Which would be very funny.

Snapping sounds like a real faff.

Keep them all in a special plastic box that is inside a powerful electromagnet.

Push button and a field that is strong enough to damage the cards almost instantly and over a short time would generate enough heat to physically damage the cards.

With enough power and time you could turn them into one hot blob that wouldn't even be recognisable.

So near instant data damage and then physical destruction probably before someone can work out what's going on.

I thought this place was supposed to be dull.

The rare exciting news of a finished Chapstick (rather than lost, wrecked in the washing machine, etc ..) is certainly not dull!

I'm going to go and reorganise my screw boxes to calm down a bit.

Can confirm.

Playing through again now. Was faithful last time so this time bring it on!

What the fuck is this bullshit.

How can anyone say private oil companies are good when the likes of Saudi or Norway have massive wealth funds and great infrastructure from them?

Did I imagine a scam with hacked bios as well?

Where the card looks a bit physically similar and the bios is updated to report it as whatever dynamite card but it's actually a pos and the performance is always rubbish.

This is the answer. You can also screw a block to the top and use that to keep the multi tool blade straight. Gives a couple of holes to sort on the top but a much less work straightening up the edge.

My opinion is that it isn't. If it can remove heat then it will cool the same as air AC.

However it comes with the problem of condensation everywhere. So those room radiators that give off heat in the winter will be dripping with condensation in the summer. As will all the system pipework that isn't fully insulated and protected.

So that's probably a lot of water running different places in the home.
