It’s a basic AC rectifier, the resistor represents an arbitrary DC load. You use similar circuits all the time, though generally with additional failsafes and some mechanism of smoothing out the rectified current.

“Conduit” is the word for those tubes for wires. Probably a shared etymology with “conductor” though.

Having the pipes in the mortar/bricks sounds like a maintenance nightmare.

Ah, if you need to build a .NET project that makes sense

Nuget is a the .NET package manager. Like npm or pip, but for .NET projects.

If you needed it for a published application that strikes me as fairly strange.

I love the detail that she put “+ AI” on both sides of the equation so that it’s still technically correct regardless of what the AI stands for.

The Windows version definitely does not open your default browser to download a new installation package which you then need to install yourself.

Nobody suspects a thing…

…why does your body wash burn?

Sounds like we’re in complete agreement.

What really gets me is when someone crosses the line from “enough to hold it together” all the way through “cohesive item you can take bites from” then dives headlong into “everything sloughs off as the cheese stays connected and drags every other topping with it”, then acts like nothing is wrong and it’s a good thing.

I might be an outlier here, but I absolutely think there is such a thing as too much cheese. My partner and I have regular disagreements about how much should be put on a pizza when we’re making one at home.

Yes, that’s all true, but none of that describes its free-fall trajectory. Drag causes it to deviate from free-fall very slightly, and it definitely wasn’t in free-fall when the pieces were launched from Earth

Spent a moment thinking about this and I think there’s an implied definition for what “on earth” means that we intuitively accept but don’t ever really need to state.

If your projected free-fall trajectory both forward and backward in time intersects with the surface of the earth then you are “on earth”.

Standing on the ground? Intersects twice. Thrown rock? Intersects twice. Person in an airplane? Intersects twice. ISS? No intersection. Incoming impact meteor? One intersection.

We wouldn’t recognize the aliens symbols for 0-9 at first either.

What compression settings are you using for each? If you’re just accepting defaults it’s quite possible you’re comparing against a lossless webp, which is quite likely to be larger than jpeg at typical quality settings.

The way the quizzical “huh” is sometimes pronounced is close perhaps? I don’t know if I’d call that an English word though.

Was ingrown on both sides, and grew back the same each time.

Ah, yeah. I was told that was a possibility when I had it done. Sucks that it happened to you.

Completely gone. Was badly ingrown and after a doctor removed it three times and it grew back ingrown again every time they just destroyed the root completely.

You joke, but I’m missing a nail on one of my big toes and it’s so much more comfortable and less hassle that I kind of wish all my toenails were gone.

…not so sure about fingernails though. They’re pretty useful for picking things up or prying things open.

Jellyfin has some security issues that, depending on who you ask, are either critical vulnerabilities that make it completely unsafe to expose to the Internet or largely unconcerning for regular users.
