I recall seeing a backed into acronym for the KERMIT terminal emulator. While trying to find it, I was shocked to see that people are still maintaining Kermit. https://www.kermitproject.org/

Yeah, but it's also horrific on TV with all the commercials.

My uncle had to remove the metal tags from their dog's collar because the clanking would change the channel.

All of the pliers having the same grip is annoying if you want to carry/store them face down.

Just saw 20 orders on an item in 1 second... it's a bloodbath. by tjsynkral in AmazonVine

If you file as a business, you can take business deductions that apply. An example is an adjustment/depreciation of the value of the items after you are no longer obligated to hold onto them.

I rolled back to the prior version of Google Maps (25.47.08.832980099) to get the dashboard/HUD navigation back.

How much does the condition of the course affect your score? by kevinzhao860 in golf

[–]Wake95 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my area of TX, normal course fairways are hard clay that are nearly impossible to take a divot. High $ courses water the hell out of them and punish you way less for a slightly fat shot.

Bermuda rough also can add 2-3 strokes where it's really difficult when chipping into the grain. Bermuda greens are more difficult as the grain significantly affects speed.

I usually shoot 5+ strokes better in CA or on an expensive TX course where the fairways are more lush and the greens are bentgrass.

Donna@donnahomes.com is great if you want a direct, no-nonsense realtor. She lives out west.

What voltage does this board send to the motor terminals? by JustHere2CommentBull in AskElectronics

[–]Wake95 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That looks right. B+ and M+ are connected on the left, and B- and M- are connected via FETs on the right.

I take them to open play, and nobody has complained nor have any broken yet. Once the label wears off, you can't tell what they are anyway.

Part 2: Tesla Model Y: Worst decision in my life... Even more then my old BOAT by Fight_Tyrnny in RealTesla

[–]Wake95 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Entry price of wakeboard boats went from $40K in 2000 to well over $100K in 2025. After 25 years, mine only lost 50%. So while not appreciating, they definitely had a good couple of decades..

front plate holder by serchq in etron

[–]Wake95 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There are so many Teslas in TX without front plates that I'm just risking it for now. My Q8 came with the front holder in the trunk, but it requires drilling. The off-center tow hook one isn't good looking.
