These can be used in interesting ways. There are some small ones that can be placed below a shutoff lever and if it soaks up any water it presses the lever and shuts off water to an appliance.

Came to the comments to say exactly this. The rootkit debacle was the end of the road for me and Sony. They're still exactly the same company, and this move proves it.

I got some pretty cool holographic metal slammers right at the tail end.

I've had a TI-89 for a very long time and thought the TI-92 would be nice with the bigger keyboard but I found I actually liked the TI-89 better. I got relatively fast at input, even without the full qwerty layout, and managed to create quite a few programs using the 89 keyboard to type it all. The screen on the 89 has much better contrast too.

Depends on if you have found your passion. I found the career I was passionate about at age 14 and now have more experience than the vast majority of my peers. Until just recently, I had never managed someone younger than me, and I've been a supervisor for a very long time now.

I can't believe they're up to 40. I remember installing Fedora Core 1 like it was yesterday. Yum (and now dnf) has come a long way. It used to have to individually retrieve metadata files for every available package, rather than using a single compressed index of all the packages available in the repository you were using. It made just getting to the stage where dependencies were calculated take forever.

Turns per roll on one brand, grams per inch for the next, and ounces per half-roll for your third choice.

And the units should be consistent. It drives me nuts when I'm in a store and the unit varies across different sizes of the same product.

Good riddance.
