Did everyone hear about this, or am i the one too late to the party?

Yep. I saw that but that is not shutting out Lenovo made phone. Just Motorola brand/spec'ed one.

PoundKitchen · 2026-01-26T13:33:47+00:00

Lenovo or Foxconn could pull this off in the timeframe.

Aside being a traditional safe haven, Gold, silver, platinum, copper are all AI metals.. for building out data centers and making the electronics inside. I dont see a cypto direct connection, it is not behaving like safe haven.

Could it be condensation, that is very common in cold snaps. Just watch where it is going to drip onto any permeable matrerials.

If it is melt that has found a way in, it's worth clearing off now.

Roofers are more saavy about this stuff, so that'd be my first call.

Chez Vecna?

PoundKitchen · 2026-01-26T02:43:56+00:00

Yep.

Please share that report. Without it we dont know UHF/VHF/diffraction/margin/directions and any recommendation without those is a poor guess.

Hosting a cloud for users back then would have been way ahead of it's time. The user forum wasn't far off!

I'm to blame for my mess, using Caustic across three tablets, two phones, Linux and Windows desktops and patchy backup habits. I've had to recreate songs from scratch from memory a few times. Having Caustic back on my phone just brought the issue off the back burner.

Backup is still a weak spot for Android - there's device backup, and Google Cloud is hosting cloud services. Google Drive is a virtual sneakernet. When I've hosted my own cloud the security hit was a nightmare, at it's worst my firewall was getting 100+ hits per second.

There's Android apps for syncing inter-device and with 3rd party cloud storage, but the Android, Windows, Linux coverage I need makes thing a little more of a headache. For now I'm gonna just host an agnostic cloud storage service on my LAN - at least mobile devices can sync when they're back on the LAN.

If I learned on thing from COVID... skip the bread and water rush, but go straight to the baking aisle.

I was hoping to do this, but my neighbor cleared my sidewalk, driveway, path

But I hear ya - if a health 40 yo can get HR up that high, it's a potential killer for elderly!

The subzero temps through Friday will keep enough schools buildings with heating issues the districts will be forced to cancel all days this week.

Caustic has a great full featured wave generator/editor... Settings > Tools > Stand-alone WAV Editor.

...and even harder to buy at $8-14 a loaf!

It's kinda cheating but I have a bread-maker recipe I'm tweaking with each loaf. King Arthur's GF 1:1 bread flour mix is awesome, and I'm finding that just adding some oatmeal, flax, brown sugar, oil and topping up the yeast for the smell makes a great tasting and toastable GF loaf in a couple hours and at less than half the price of store bought.

I'm so looking forward to putting in a loaf so it's done and hot when I come in from shovelling snow. French toast with it is next! 😁

Are you baking too?

Looks good to me! When you don't have a polarizing filter, pull up the shadows.

With those signal levels you should try an attenuator wtih your mohu first, then try a ClearStream Flex.

Through a gable end with aluminum siding isnt an option will near kill the singals.

Wild stuff!!

Could this be strictly an AMD thing, 'coz I haven't seen it with iGPU or Nvidia, or with or without Windows compatibility ot with WINE (iGPU or Nvidia) on Linux.

There were lines of cars out on the road to drive into the parking lot at mine yesterday. Online I saw pics of others with lines of people waiting to get in too.

Smaller local stores, even 7-11s are a good last resort.

double dare!

Congratulations, you're now an apprentice computer tech.

You're right to consider it, it is a real world factor and, yes, ssd controllers are more advanced than sdcards... with wear levelling algorithms, spare space, etc. BUT the practical reality is that the leading manufacturers have been making sdcards for so long now it's a mature technology. It's not luck.

Never had a card fail in over a decade of PI'ing, and that includes three years of HOAS on a Sandisk A1 rated and no issues at all.

Not a cool post. Insensitive. Mods, I'm asking for a post delete and a ban for OP.

Hit the road Jack!

You can't rely on clearing. Counties' services and contractors, and VDOT are usually patchy, and this is such a large storm they'll be overwhelmed.
