For flexibility and size I like external m.2 enclosures. I have some from Sabrent, Orico and Rosewill. Of them all the Rosewill is the smallest, has the nicest build quality, and seems to dissipate heat the best.
So I would recommend a Rosewill 9SIA072GJ92919, and add an NVMe SSD of your choice.
I think your MacBook is Thunderbolt 2, so you won’t get full speed but it should still be plenty fast. And this enclosure will give you TB3 speeds if you upgrade your PC later.
No. 1970 is 0 in Unix time. The NTP RFC specifies 1900. I had to look it up!
Better to represent it as a 64-bit unsigned fixed-point number, in seconds relative to 0000 UT on 1 January 1900. It’s how he would have wanted it.
Fermented and spicy - how about some gochujang? It’s like miso, but a Korean version with chili. Mix it with some good sesame oil and a splash of rice vinegar to lighten it up. Then put it with the tuna in your onigiri like you would the mayo. It’s already salty, so no need to add salt.
It’s not that one charging location was down. It’s that the current battery tech can’t charge in cold conditions without using some of its own power to heat the battery cells. This means people need to anticipate the cold and charge earlier and more often than they typically do.
Those who didn’t were stranded.
This is a real limitation of the current technology. Not a deal breaker for most people, but it’s a learning curve and a potential inconvenience.
In terms of language you are correct. But in terms of SI usage it seems to me OP is expressing it correctly. The SI unit prefixes have a name, a symbol and a multiplier. The prefix is a concept that encompasses all three of those attributes. So “kilo” is one way of identifying the 10^3 unit prefix, but the name kilo is not the prefix itself. It’s just the name we use to refer to it. And the symbol k in km is certainly the unit prefix portion of that unit of measure.
Just get into a habit of muttering “it’s not vodka” whenever you drink from it. That should put everyone’s mind at ease!
Upvote for the produce rubber band wallet. I usually prefer one from celery or collard greens, but broccoli is good too.
Blue Valentines - Tom Waits
107 Steps - Björk (this one is best after watching the movie “Dancer in the Dark”)
Gone Away - My Brightest Diamond
Gloomy Sunday - Billie Holiday Or Gloomy Sunday - Sinéad O’Connor No comparison vocally, but if you like Sinéad the second has a lot of emotion.
A Night Like This - The Cure
Traveling Light - Leonard Cohen
Looks custom. It seems unlikely that Lenovo would offer this.
Run your fingernail across the transition in each direction. Is the carbon fiber part higher than the rubber coating, or lower?
Conclusion of the article: no.
Cacik! It’s a Turkish chilled soup with yogurt, cucumber, mint, garlic, etc. Very refreshing in hot weather.
I’m late to the party on this, but I would agree with the others that Raspberry Pi is not only overkill, but will make this more difficult than it needs to be.
It’s a great job for a basic microcontroller, and the code needed for that will be simpler. You just need something like an Arduino, some wire, a few resistors and 4 buttons. Look at any intro to Arduino introduction that gets to button presses (and debouncing). Here’s a good guide from the start: https://learn.adafruit.com/ladyadas-learn-arduino-lesson-number-1/introduction
If you want to follow a guide end to end and can customize the code, this might be a helpful starting point with a very compact board: https://learn.adafruit.com/arcade-button-control-box/overview
I like LibreOffice Draw for this.
And if you did, and want a fun tech project to track what species are in your yard, check out BirdNET Pi: https://github.com/mcguirepr89/BirdNET-Pi
It can help to download your local map for offline use. The default basemap doesn’t have details like house numbers, but the downloaded maps should.
OsmAnd will do that. If you edit the destinations you can manually specify their order. Click sort there and choose door-to-door to get the most efficient routing.
The app takes some getting used to, but it works very well, and can act as a front-end for contributing to OpenStreetsMap.
See what’s using the space. This will list any dirs using >100MiB:
