I read that as “Scourge of Stocks”, and was left wondering what this good boy had done to upset Wall Street.

When people tell me ‘money doesn’t buy happiness’, I tell them ‘it removes a lot of anxiety’.

These people don’t have any anxiety anymore, and believe they can do anything. Most of the time they’re right.

First part no, second part yes? AL: VH was pretty bad.

I never liked you. Come get your crockpot, I never want to see you again.

No. Unless that hot water is very, very hot vapor, you’re just adding more mass that’s going to be cooled by the original cold water. And even with vapor, the heat transfer between a hot gas and cool liquid just doesn’t happen fast enough, the vapor will be in the atmosphere before the water heats up very much.

There is an amazing art museum in Detroit. The Detroit Institute of Arts doesn’t have the most famous paintings, but I prefer seeing lesser-known works anyway.

Well, I think a ground-out towards First is also an option.

I didn’t know F-droid was on Android TV, but it will be on mine pretty soon.

My bank restricts the length of my password to…16 characters, I think.

Remember all the hysteria over “death panels” during the ACA debates? Fooled you, they were already here, invented by insurance companies.

People with 3D printers will remember how we were lied to about PLA’s biodegradability.

DemBoSain,
@DemBoSain@midwest.social avatar

The original story was similar: PLA is made from corn, and is completely biodegradable.

Interested people took various parts made from PLA and put them outside for a while. Some people buried them. Some people put them in their compost pile or canisters. I think the only result was some discoloration and possibly some reduced strength.

So now it seems PLA only biodegrades under industrial conditions, requiring elevated temperatures.

[Solved - Firefox extension SingleFile converts the page to a .html file that can be accessed without login!] Any tricks to saving chapters in a digital, online-based textbook as a PDF?

Print-to-PDF is locked down. There’s a print option as part of the software, but it slaps my student email diagonally across every single page, which makes reading it kind of obnoxious....

Print-to-PDF is locked down.

Locked down how? You say this is online, but also mention software, so I’m not sure if this is browser-based or not. If a browser, can you use an addon like this:

addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/fireshot/

to capture the entire page?

If not a browser, it would help to know what the software is.

What’s the website? I may be able to look at it tomorrow. Is it school-specific or one of those generic online document viewers?

Try throwing NoScript at it? But that will probably just break the entire page.

DemBoSain,
@DemBoSain@midwest.social avatar

Noscript is another addon, it blocks Javascript completely. You probably won’t be able to log in, but it’s worth a shot.

I just looked at the Elsevier page, it looks like what I expected. I’m sure there’s a way to get the docs, I just don’t have much access right now to search for it. My last recommendation is to try and find the book on a torrent site. My second last recommendation is to ask at !piracy (I don’t know if that link will work) if someone knows about Elsevier, they’re pretty helpful, and you’re just trying to read a book you already have access to.

Good luck.

I always assumed the creature was just like a maggot or worm (we never see anything other than a “head” with an “eye”, along with some tentacles. Something that commonly infests garbage dumps, not put there for any particular reason.

What's stopping people who lash out at the world from going after corporations?

Obviously violence isn’t ever the answer but I’m just curious, when people go nuts and decide to take life and cause terror, what makes their decision to attack something like say a school or a church/mosque, a sporting event. As far as I see it in this day and age the biggest stressors in our society are corporations yet...

Someone did attack the Youtube headquarters several years ago. She was mad they had demonetized her videos.

I really, really liked his podcast when the co-hosts rotated, including Kristen Schall and Eugene Merman. Then it became Chuck Nice all the time, and I didn’t stick around to see if it ever changed back.
