I recently went to buy tickets to see a stage play at a local community theater. Turns out last play I saw there was 15 years ago.
Wtf? Why do you have info on an account I haven’t logged into in 15 years?
Until there’s real fines for data loss, these companies won’t change. Hell, for all I know they have friends in the dark web/hacker world and “leak” credentials to them.
Yea, the pocket door is a challenge, but there should be plenty of room - there should be a lot of space from the door to the ply panel. Once installed, a Molly should only extend about 1cm. Just make sure to cut the screw down once installed (the screw is longer so it can compress the Molly, easy to cut with a pair of dikes).
Optionally, you can use a wood screw for that end, one that’s long enough to just go through the ply when set at the right depth. This will ensure you have maximum thread engagement.
Wood screws will probably be OK, it just makes me a little nervous with that weight. Of course, more screws=more distributed load, but then you have to get them all to line up perfectly, which isn’t easy.
I wouldn’t use wood screws for that kind of weight on a floating shelf (even with that nice ply backer). A floating shelf has a lot of leverage against that screw, trying to pull it outward, while other shelf types pull straight down with less lever action.
Use something like a toggle bolt or Molly. They distribute the load a lot more. I really prefer Molly for plaster/sheetrock, because they stay in place. Perfect for a floating shelf.
Edit: I hope the shelf has 3 or 4 mount points. That’s still a lot of weight for just 2 screws with a floating shelf. I’d be concerned about the screw heads handling the load over time. They’re probably fine, but it only takes one poorly made screw to bring the shelf down.
The violation they target users for is sharing a video, and that’s usually through a file sharing service like torrenting.
Think of it this way - whatever you watch online via a browser you’re already downloading. Or via an app.
You know, it really tweaks me that torrenting is associates with piracy, when it could’ve become the defacto way to share files between users, if OS devs had just included the protocol in the OS (looking at you Android, but Windows and Apple too).
I’ve often questioned why it wasn’t…
Still, they don’t control it. Which means support is a real problem.
They’re not even paying for a service, which would give you contractual commitments.
I just say “post grezz sequel”. Sorry if it pisses people off, but it’s a stupid name, so I’m gonna say it the way I want.
I look forward to the day when all these lame-ass, insider naming conventions are looked down upon as the stupid things they are.
Wtf does “en jinx” or “engine X” have to do with it’s functionality?
I hate looking for an app on my phone that does a particular thing but hell if I can recall what the idiot developed called it.
Rules of English, the closest I’d come is n-jinx. You don’t pronounce letters individually, unless reciting the alphabet or something.
Unless you pronounce the letter “B” the same way you say it, like the bug that makes honey.
We don’t say “beenefits” or “bee eee an eee eef eye tee ess”
Wtf?
It’s Jason. If they wanted it pronounced that way, they should’ve spelled it differently…
Like GIF
Sorry, no, at least one could argue GIF. JSON is a single freakin’ vowel short of a common male name.
Morons.
Frankly the military should re-evaluate.
As good as Signal is for the average non-technical person, organizations with resources would be far better served by hosting their own, using something like XMPP with encryption, with servers only permitting connection from their own compiled clients, run in a container on the phone, which have been available since at least 2010.
No business I’ve worked for would accept Signal as a solution, in part because you have little control over it.
Easily replaceable batteries.
I have a 2017 phone I just put a battery in for $10. They’re replaceable, just not without tools.

I do think it’s target audience was kids. I had a younger family member (about 12) introduce me to it at the time. I got a kick out of the gameplay and styles. It was sort of a spoof of a 90’s video game (name I can’t recall) with a common theme then - sort of over-the-top, “we’re both in on the joke” kind of thing.
I’m sure they will. It’s always a cat-and-mouse game.
It’s been a while since I read about DRM, but what I recall the challenge is not being able to control end-to-end, which is what really drives trusted boot efforts in both Android and Windows.
If you don’t control the hardware and OS, then someone can use it to sidestep DRM.
Oh, I get what they’re doing, but I resent their approach.
So many just introduced the subscription to sucker the naive.
I don’t mind paying for software. So let me pay for a major version, and if I want a major update, that costs too. I have so much software where a given version works just fine (FolderSync for example, and Office 2016),that I see no need to upgrade.
Which is what’s so “magical” about it - Newtonian rules seem to break down at the quantum level.
It was an incredible discovery, and for practically anyone not a physicist, it’s incredibly hard to comprehend. I say this as a not-a-physicist who struggled to comprehend it decades ago, and read several books on the subject to finally get my head around it (as much as a non-physicist can).
Also, it’s just a meme mate.
It was about being fun, not to be a serious game, so approach it that way. It has a bit of silliness.
Remember it came out around the time the Austin Powers movies were a big hit.
No, because humanity has always had the same issues, and things are easily arguably better today than at any other time.
Things like starvation around the world have been driven down 30% in a 10-year period. The difference between my parents generation and mine are staggering, and then from mine to the next even more so.
You have to look past the talking heads, past the headlines - those are designed to sound awful to gather attention and to frankly, piss people off.
To quote Men In Black, “there’s always an Arquillian Battle Cruiser, or a Corillian Death Ray, or an intergalactic plague”.
I’ll blame the drivers (and some of that blame lands on MS).
Wow, 50 lbs (~20 kg) per stud, with a bunch of screw holes in the base plate. Problem solved, and you could just use a number of wood screws into the ply panel, just spaced well apart (like 2.5-3 cm), and anchor into a stud where you can with a long lag (3"/~8cm).
Or if you can only hit a stud on one side, use a single Molly on the other and a couple wood screws in between.
