To WiFi users.

Do you reduce your router's WiFi Transmit Power to the bare minimum as required by you?

  • Do you just keep it at the default 100%
  • Did you not know you could reduce it (until now)
  • Are you not able to control "your" WiFi router because it's the ISP provided router and they didn't give you the password?
  • Do you actually require the 100% !?

Simple. \n when you just want a newline.
println when you need to flush at the moment.

Useful in case you are printing a debug output right before some function that might do bed stuff to buffers.

pops into my head semi-regularly

Isn't that called "trauma"?

Maybe Reddit required Trump-approved sources.

Who knows, maybe some of their mothers were fine women and you got banned for misinformation


Edit: Somehow I added an apostrophe. Looks like the virus is spreading to me

Steam baths are the best.
Get the steam directly out of a pressure cooker.

You will need a barrel, a rope and a pulley on a pole. Oh and something to make holes in a barrel with.

To compile:

  • rope the barrel and lay the rest of the rope over the pulley
  • drive the pole into the ground next to your desired source of water
  • optionally, keep the barrel's lid openable
  • make holes in the barrel in a convenient position, such that the holes will face downwards when you eventually mast the barrel

To charge:

  • Set the barrel in the water source and wait until the barrel is full of water (optionally open the lid at this point)
  • If you optionally opened the lid before, then mandatorily close the lid, now
  • Pull the rope from the other side of the pulley such that the barrel goes up
  • Let the water pour from the barrel and have fun with the shower

... which can only be fixed after rooting the phone.

my Driver Registry needed defragmentation to avoid WiFi Corruption

That's their tech literate filter, which helps them not waste time on people that would almost definitely catch-on to their scam before actually getting scammed.

And that's why I don't use smart pointers.


Well...
I actually did make a logical flow diagram describing all conditions for pointer deletion. They just don't care to read it.

Ahh right. I didn't notice that part.

Guess I should have read the image as carefully as your text.

imagining fields (not forces,

Yeah that thing. Except that they were dubbed "magnetic lines of force". Also, I remember it being separately explained that even though they were called that, they didn't represent the direction of force (of course not, or you'd not need the right-hand-rule and left-hand-rule).

Looking at the iron shavings though, it seemed more like low potential energy regions/ stable regions.

Also it give a feeling of being analogous to fringe patterns.

For anyone whose magnet related memories are not filled with various line illustrations of the forces, that's probably it.

And even though my head is full of those illustrations, I don't seem to understand how the iron fillings and ferrofluids make the shapes they do instead of just sticking to the magnet. And I am too lazy to do the maths to make myself understand.

 

A person, on the Gnome Issue, suggested that terminals inhibit sleep when there is stuff running in them.

Continuing from that discussion, I am trying to understand, at which point it would be desirable to implement said inhibition - terminal emulator, the shell or the program itself

Additionally:

  • We want to inhibit when running stuff like pacman, wget, cp or mv
  • We don't want to inhibit when running stuff like htop, less, watch
