My mom got her Amazon account hijacked again... On June 6th. Email changed to a .ru one, phone number removed, who knows how much money spent. I'm furious that my parents don't seem to understand why unique passwords are important because (probably) the same attackers have been trying to get into other accounts since then. The only reason I even know about this is because I was asked to look at her order history to see how much she spent on something and Amazon said that her email wasn't associated with an account. Maybe the constant "Someone is trying to access your Facebook account" messages would fucking tip her off.
I've wasted so much of my life trying to get my mother to even use two different passwords. Took about 8 months of constant reminding, but she eventually started using two passwords split over multiple sites. She used the same password for AOL since the early 2000's or something.
To clarify, those packs of cells are from laptop packs, powertools, scooters, etc which were used then torn apart and grouped based on capacity. So the actual cells vary greatly. For something like an Ebike you'll want to know your cells can do ~10amps maybe per cell.
I recently ordered a couple packs of these modem batteries that I guess were for a discontinued modem model. So these modem batteries contained new LGDAS31865 pretty decent 2200mAh cells. Combined I just added 2.5KWh to my project. Even used Make Offer to save like 60 bucks.
Yeah. Canary Wharf and, funnily enough, Bank
God damn. A while ago my dad bought a shitton of old speakers and music stuff in unknown condition. I got an iPod dock with an aux port (broken dock port turned out later) and some speakers for my desk and he got quite a few nice amps or hi-fi sets that needed a bit of repair. There were also 2.1 speaker systems with either missing powerbricks or top speakers. Sister got a woofer and some random small 2 speakers with a 3.5mm jack to go with it, but there were some "surround sound" speaker set there too, that looked a bit better. Today I finally cut some old headphone wires, went to solder them to the 2 speakers and after I painstakingly soldered them together, tried it with my phone and turns out, both of these were blown.. Why didn't I use the tester before soldering them, I don't know. I even had plenty of batteries or whatever to test, but nope, I had to solder them first.. Just my luck I guess. I even heatshrinked one of the wires beautifully. Haven't done anything so well ever before.
Tried to switch from f.lux to night light on my work system, turns out night light doesn't work over my dock. Sticking with f.lux I suppose.
@Glitchvid God damn, this Dark Rock 4 was worth it. Running Prime95 on 12 threads, an obviously unrealistic thermal load, only brings me up to a stable 70C.
Oh yeah also it came with a screwdriver and it's now the best screwdriver I own. Thanks, be quiet. Wasn't expecting that one at all!
That's pretty much the exact functionality W10 has, not a whole lot of options. Which I'm fine with, but I'd like it to, you know, work.
Windows one works for me, seems to be the motto of Win10
Haven't used anything like that since like 2012 tbh. It just ended up annoying me more than helping eye strain.
It's less about eye strain and more about manipulating melatonin production

why do monitor manufacturers insist on using these stealth fighter stands that look idiotic and are probably unstable as all heck
Because (quoted directly from that link) "The slim profile and light weight make for a monitor that is ideal for mounting and small workspaces." Most of these gaming monitors are meant to be on arms so that you can position them how you want for how you sit. I have both my monitors on arms and they're angled down because I recline when at my desk.
Because if you're spending that much on a monitor the least you should do is get something like this https://www.amazon.co.uk/Invision-Monitor-Arm-Height-Assisted-Adjustable/dp/B0765Y4CT5/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1534902208&sr=8-4&keywords=monitor+arm
On the contrary, if I'm spending that much on a display I kinda expect a decent stand.
Mine have lasted 6 years and work perfectly to be fair. Far longer than any of the monitors I've had on them
As an owner of a "stealth fighter stand that looks idiotic and is probably unstable as all heck" I can inform you from a position of authority that it's actually stable as fuck.
Pixio puts out cheap mostly functional shit with lots of features. They have terrible firmware too so that stand is the least of your problems.
I installed Pop! OS on my T420 and it's probably my favorite distro. I've always liked Gnome, and these days it seems pretty damn polished.
EasyEDA is a web app that isn't horrible, and is a lot less confusing than Kicad.
The day I lay out a board in a web browser is the day I lay out my brains on a wall with a shotgun shell. Not to mention your design is basically gone if the service goes out. KiCad's the way to go, 5.0 just came out some time ago with nice improvements.
Why does this website eat 40% of my CPU just trying to load. Seriously it brings down my entire computer to crawling with its lips while that site loads. The fuck?
WWW was a mistake, not memeing

What is this? Did the quadratic formula explode? No really, I'm not computer illiterate by any means but what is all this junk, I googled it and I'm still confused, I've never been able to wrap my head around web development. I take it any sane website wouldn't have that be that big?
Today I received a work phone that runs windows mobile and nobody in the office knew how to set up call redirects on the damn thing. Why the hell is call redirection on that system stashed away under "Extras" in the settings and under "Network+"? Why is it not under network/SIM settings or something?
well the top one looks like it's trying to get some kind of phone name, but it looks like it's trying to match against what the author believes to be all possible values, which is a very bad way of doing it i don't know exactly what the input is, but a regex like this would be better (lets hope this is just PCRE): platform=(.*); so if the input was "foo=bar;platform=opera mini;post=bad;", the first group (the parentheses) would end up being "opera mini". and the regex won't break if someone invents a new value for platform later.
