Is it 220V? Ever since using an induction burner on a boat I've been fantasizing about stove-and-oven-less kitchen.

In October 2024, Salt Typhoon was discovered to have exploited backdoors in US internet service provider networks used by law enforcement agencies to facilitate court-authorized wiretapping.[9] Affected networks included those of AT&T, Verizon, Lumen Technologies, and T-Mobile.

Omg yes. Learned that on a sailboat. Lanicote. Not just for bolts.

Ok, I thought "erupt" was melodramatic, but the horror is real:

Brand underwent surgery in July 2011 to try to remove the rest of the filter in her IVC, but the surgeons failed to collect the remnants after several attempts.

I can't get over "doesn't" instead of hasn't

What is it with all this regulation? I'll be so happy when people are free to make their own choices based on myth and legend

I think the incredible shrinking Rolodex of politicians in general is the reason for many such gaps.

We called it caltrops :) It's also called puncture vine. It was a nuisance in Arizona, but I didn't bike a whole lot, so I mainly remember the sound when a bunch of them are stuck in your car tires.

This is what caltrops means to me

Dried seed pods absolutely get stuck in your tires, and will pop bike tires.

TitleAcross the Universe

 

My recent experience is no -- the first backup went just fine, but all subsequent attempts to add to it have failed, giving various errors in the logs, including mounting problems, timeout during the initial write test, bad database, etc. I did rename the drive between backups, maybe that was bad? The log shows Time Machine using the new name and finding the drive just fine.

Googling this I see that people have these same problems with external hard drives, though, so I'm wondering if anyone has been successful using a thumb drive and if there's any trick to it.

 

Usually the option is there, but sometimes only block user is available.

Thanks.
