She wasn’t his girlfriend. He found her interesting because she was a client, and she slept above the covers.

Four feet above the covers.

Technically, its only a hamburger if it comes from the hamburg region of Germany. Anywherr else, it is sparkling beef.

You seal everything but the battery in one watertight compartment. The battery is a sealed, self-contained package, in a second compartment. Dunk the phone, the only thing that gets wet are the battery contacts, which are protected the same way that earbuds with magnetic chargers are protected: if the contacts get wet, the battery shuts itself off until it has been dried off.

This has made a lot of people angry, and has been widely regarded as a bad move.

Makeup.

I don’t care who I’ll be arguing with, but the disagreement will center on the hour and manner of Trump’s inevitable demise.

I’m thinking a trauma-induced stroke, caused when JD Vance has a sudden epileptic fit and bites off Donny Jr. in the Lincoln bedroom.

Pot, kettle.

If everywhere you go smells like shit, it might be time to check your own shoes.

4th grade social studies. The assignment was to transcribe the definition of the unit’s vocabulary words from the textbook’s glossary.

I forgot the text book at school.

Dad called another parent for the vocabulary words, gave me a giant, unabridged dictionary and told me to start writing.

Received a zero, and a lunch detention.

Fuck you, Bitting.

If it’s still hooked up, it might be useful as an emergency power source for keeping cell phones and USB power banks charged in the event of a long-term power outage.

My family was without power for three days recently, and about a week a few years ago.

It’s not the voltage you need to focus on. It’s the current.

Analog telephone wiring used 90v @20hz to ring the phones. Off-hook, they were at 9vdc, which rose to 48vdc on-hook. The insulation can handle potentials much higher than 5v.

But, telephone wires are typically 26awg to 22awg, which are only rated to .361 to .92 amps for power transmission. Pull too much current, and you risk melting the insulation and starting a fire.

Since DC power (watts) are volts times amps, to keep the amperage low, you will want to keep the voltage as high as the insulation will tolerate.

Telephone wiring is very similar to (and may even be carried on) cat5/6 cabling. There are formal standards for using cat5/6 cabling for power transmission: Power-Over-Ethernet standards 802.3af, 802.3at and 802.3bt. These standards call for 44 to 60 volt power injectors, and up to 15.4 watts per wire pair. If I were going to jury rig household telephone wiring for power transmission, I would use those standards as a guide.

You should use a current-limited power supply, to keep your current below 0.361A, or you risk melting the insulation and starting a fire.

There is no spoon. Get bent.

was just a standard residential setup,

The distinction is important because we are discussing IPv6. A “standard residential setup” with IPv6 would provide the user with an entire subnet rather than a single IP address. We still need a router to pass traffic from the ISP’s network to our own network, but we no longer need NAT.

It’ll take you public IP and translate those packets to use your internal one.

That is NAT, yes. But that is only one small function that a router can perform, and not all routers have NAT enabled. You only need NAT if your ISP only allows you to use a single IP address.

If your computer has an address that starts with 169, 168, or 10 there is a NAT somewhere in your network.

That’s not actually true. I can create such a network without connecting it to the internet, no NAT. I can create a second network, again, no NAT. I can then use a gateway router that allows any node on the first network to reach any node on the second. That router is still not doing any NAT. It’s just passing traffic between two networks.

Somewhere between Quartz and Topaz.

Ice cream needs to be served at 5 to 10F (-15C to -12C), so the freezer in your kitchen should be around that.

Long-term storage should be -5F to 0F (-21C to -18C), so your deep freezer should be around that. Colder is OK, but not really necessary.

Law and Order meets Harry Potter…

Yeah, I read that. It’s the 10-year-old part of it that I’m having trouble with.

If she was 15, yeah, no problem, 6 months in juvie.

13 with priors, maybe 30-90 days.

10 years old? There’s going to have to be some sort of special circumstances to justify incarceration. The severity of the crime isn’t going to do it.

You’re going to have to show that she should be treated as a much older teenager, or that the judge is excessively, abusively harsh.

Most likely, a 10-year-old would not be incarcerated.

The only reasons I can think of that this might not be the case is if the parents requested she be locked up, or an evil, corrupt judge, or a good judge needed some reason to quickly separate the child from the parents and used the hearing as an opportunity to do that.
