My friend’s house does this with their generator. There is a lockout on the breaker, and the main must be off to move it and open the one that feeds the back porch where they tie the generator in. Once the breakers are cycled, they can plug the generator into the outlet on the porch, and it runs there, sheltered from the weather. When the main power is working again, they turn off the generator, remove the cord, disable the breaker, toggle the lockout bar, and turn the main back on. The particular outlet on the porch is useless when using grid power because of this setup.

But the trick is you have to manage to point it directly into the camera lense. May the odds be ever in your favor.

Meanwhile, in England:

Found it.

Try eating them in yogurt instead of milk.

That book only matters to them insofar as they can use to it to control others.

My mom does it all the time. I asked her about it once, and she said it’s a habit while her thoughts catch up. Basically, a text version of ‘umm’.

If you’re oversleeping your alarm for hours, you should really reevaluate your approach to waking.

2 holidays a year? Must not be working class. I got enough time to write this message only after 5 years of service.

Not like the brazen giant of Greek fame, With conquering limbs astride from land to land; Here at our sea-washed, sunset gates shall stand A mighty woman with a torch, whose flame Is the imprisoned lightning, and her name Mother of Exiles. From her beacon-hand Glows world-wide welcome; her mild eyes command The air-bridged harbor that twin cities frame. “Keep, ancient lands, your storied pomp!” cries she With silent lips. “Give me your tired, your poor, Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free, The wretched refuse of your teeming shore. Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to me, I lift my lamp beside the golden door!”

We need to implement ranked choice voting and abolish the electoral college, or voting third party will remain as effective as screaming into the void.

Sounds like a lack of will.

Selfishness and greed. Anyone that stands up stands alone, and the others are quick to lick a boot as they grovel for scraps. For some inconceivable reason too many consider this preferable to standing together and working to make things better.

Wait until you pay the bill and someone thinks they need to crank the heat instead of putting on a sweater.

I never said it was impossible to keep the old style. Though I do refuse that the start page is only useful to touchscreens. I would have preferred a bit more options than just large or small squares, but it still was a nice way to keep shortcuts close at hand without having them on the desktop. Bringing the shortcut screen over top of everything is much more useful than keeping the shortcuts at the bottom, on the desktop.

Frankly, I found it ridiculous that the start page got so much hate while stuff like bing searches being forced into the local machine search gets no reaction.

I liked the start page. I don’t use icons on the desktop though. Being able to pull up a customized shortcut screen was quite nice.

8 only gets hate because people lost their minds with the start menu change.

I think the students had chained the doors with bike locks, and the police are trying to claim the chains constitute professional involvement.

Looks more like an egg-flower.
