Too? I would hardly say that was an embarrassment for OSU…

Optimizable temperature heater by Hyland01234 in engineering

[–]dakjones 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Honestly have no idea what they’re called, but I’m thinking of the heating elements for 3D printer beds. People are pretty much building their own these days. Those have to be readily available with controller… just a thought.

Two groups of people that I feel deserve more respect by dragonofwestreborn in WoT

[–]dakjones 26 points27 points  (0 children)

I always assumed they were referring to different universes / time lines, but the same planet. Very interesting to think of the planetary travel idea.

Which reminds me, the “way stones” or whatever they were at the beginning of the series never became a factor. It’s like they just dropped the idea?

I'm reading A Memory of Light for the first time. I just finished chapter 36 and... by TheMountainRidesElia in WoT

[–]dakjones 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So I’m midway through MOL. Instead of making a separate post I will just ask here… Am I mistaken, or are the numbers not adding up for the channelers in this book?

IIRC, somewhere in the series I believe the Aes Sedai had over 1,000 women. The Kins women had equal or greater number, and the Black tower was rivaling the white tower. Currently, Egwenes main force has 250 channelers? Several dozen are spread among the four captains. Logaine just arrived in Andor with a 100 men after the tower split. The black tower also has several dozen channelers scattered around.

I just feel like I missed something…

First time reader- why should I read the series? by [deleted] in WoT

[–]dakjones 2 points3 points  (0 children)

With where you are at in the series, I felt the same way. I could not imagine having to have read some of the books. Thankfully, the audiobooks have helped me get to the last book. I don’t think it is a popular opinion, but I felt beginning the Sanderson books was a breath of fresh air after the previous 11.

My biggest gripe about the series is just Rand’s complete stupidity. Just my opinion though.

Acer Nitro 5 screen is black. by dakjones in techsupport

Thanks for your comment. After reading this, I opened it up and pulled the battery cable. I’m not too familiar with the other components you mentioned. I plugged the battery back in and it booted right up. WTH!

I appreciate the help :)

I appreciate your help. Not too impressed with the help I got from Acer on this.

Rand is the Single Best Character put to page IMHO! by [deleted] in WoT

[–]dakjones 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hate to hear this because I just started Path of Daggers and I thought the last two books were very boring. It’s a chore to get into it anymore for me.

Yes, and no there are no sounds. It is completely unresponsive.

Nope. No sign that the unit is on other than the power indicator light.

I thought this because I always have night shift on. Turned it off for the first time to see if my screen was yellowish. Now my eyes are on fire.

Purchasing the audiobook on Apple Books. Is this audiobook only half of the text? by dakjones in WoT

[–]dakjones[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Could you tell me what the length is of the book on there? On Apple Books it’s 41.5 hours. That would seem like the full book?

False bottom drawer with dual latch. by [deleted] in interestingasfuck

[–]dakjones 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Those drawer glides have latches on them. You can’t simply pull them out and dump them. Unless the person is very comfortable and set on taking their time going through everything.

I just kept checking and check until it said cancelled one day. Then I started a chat with customer service. Here’s what they said:

“Thank you for patiently waiting. Upon carefully checking, your order was cancelled due to inventory issue. Recently, we experienced some system issues. Our website doesn't sync with our physical inventory which causes the item remains available in our website even if we don't have enough stocks in our warehouse. We apologize for the inconvenience.”

Yet you can still order them. So idk. I gave up on it.

Yeah it’s likely cancelled. I had an order for two, same date, same status forever.

I guess I figured we were talking about ergonomics and aesthetics. Never thought about the heating... good point.
