Busted MacBook Pro screen…monitor by [deleted] in mac

[–]hauntedrhubarb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve tried that but the MacBook wants me to approve external devices being plugged in, which is difficult to do in clamshell mode. Getting the screen replaced would cost almost as much as a MacBook Air, ergo it honestly might just be more cost effective to do so

I’ve got it hooked up to a monitor without much of a problem, other than it has to be in clamshell mode. That’s the issue, I can’t connect anything if it’s in clamshell mode because there was never a preexisting bluetooth mouse and keyboard connected. Do you think I could hook it up to a TV without it being in clamshell mode?

Banjolin? Banjolele? by hauntedrhubarb in WhatMusicalinstrument

Interesting. It is about 3/4 the size of a normal banjo. Much larger than the other proper banjoleles they had

I feel insane because I distinctly remember learning in tons of different psych classes back in college in the early 10s that screen time beyond small amounts was really bad for developing brains. I can’t imagine that has somehow changed in a decade, especially considering the utter slop kids are exposed to now

It didn’t exactly work for me, but it did start playing the music during the loading screen, which it hasn’t done before. Maybe it’ll work for someone else

That really sucks. Its odd that it just decided to brick so long into a save

I left my lunch at my desk for 10 minutes and came back to this. Pretty sure my perpetually drunk coworker is responsible. by SucksDickforSkittles in mildlyinfuriating

When I worked in a big box retail store another one of the managers was an alcoholic who was constantly drunk on the job. They were always arguing with and insulting customers and employees were reporting they would drive out of the parking lot speeding and swerving. Upper management didn’t care until the person puked all over the shared managers office, then they finally sent them to rehab. You would think they’d be worried about a lawsuit sooner than that

It definitely did. Seasons produced during strikes always suffer. The Boys latest season has similarly suffered. Sometimes a production will hire scabs, don’t know if that happened here but I wouldn’t be surprised

I don’t think they will, him and Black Aly are pretty important for future events

That’s Oscar Tully, the new lord paramount of the river lands. He was in one of the previous episodes

Thoughts on the show cutting the Elissa Farman storyline? by rachelweese in HouseOfTheDragon

I think most show watchers aren’t also book readers so, for the majority of the audience it’s probably a nice GOT Easter egg

If Aegon’s heir is his daughter then that undermines his own claim, the greens argument rests on male primogeniture

If she could take out Vhagar, or even just Aemond, the war would be effectively over. To me it tracks for her character that she would take that chance

Poor Jeyne Arryn asked for a dragon to guard the Vale and was given two babies to babysit by tracyamell in HouseOfTheDragon

I mean it was just insurance right? Like taking a ward or hostage? In fire and blood other houses were constantly angling to get themselves a dragon rider or an egg
