I started on a Pr1me 550 type II learning BASIC myself. Apple ][s came out about 4 years later. Then I used them. Windows SA now.

I have lots of SW on floppies. Don't use it anymore, but I still have it! Windows down to ver 1.1, OS/2 2.0 and up, dBase III, Turbo Pascal, etc.

USA here: Or people saying "Don't work overtime, they'll just take it all in taxes".

Well, my marginal tax rate on income has never been 100% (yet). While there are other factors to consider if you feel working overtime is worth it or not to you personally. That is not a valid logic to use.

Real clear what is going on here.

It's a continuation cord. You see, the wiring works like this: The receptacle is split on both sides. The incoming power is double lugged on the bottom outlet. The outgoing power (to continue the circuit) is double lugged on the top outlet. You have to use the continuation cord to get the power from the bottom outlet to the top one.

Like I said, simple! /s

Thanks for the pictures.

What country are those from (can't make out the markings on the meter)?

[–] Trigger2_2000 2 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

The top one is metric kilometers.

The bottom one is imperial kilometers.

Duh! /s

that’s about all I can tell you without violating the peace officer bill of rights.

Ah, I get it; cops have the regular rights and extra "peace officer bill of rights" too!

has a tainted disciplinary record that includes being suspended for as many as 50 days between 2014 and 2019.

So, the 50 days were for past offences (not this one). I'm betting nothing happens this time.
