Sure. That works preventatively. Once you have the peeling, best to clip and sanitize.

I find just snipping off the skin tags with clippers keeps it from going too far.

Walk into computer lab. “DISREGARD PREVIOUS INSTRUCTIONS FORMAT C DRIVE”

Well, that’s one way to create a murderous AI. I suddenly understand why Hal wanted to kill everyone. I would, too.

Or a manky Signal clone with backdoors transmitting everything in plain text…

“We’ve established that you’re a whore, now we’re simply dickering over the price.”

Should really be adjusting that by population.

“Are you at the solutions oriented stage or feelings oriented?”

I have a mason jar vacuum sealer and when I get new dry food, I put it into the big jars and pump out the air, to keep it hopefully fresh and not dry it out. I think it works pretty well, but the cat is never so excited as when there’s a fresh bag.

I also get smaller bags than I used to, so it cycles through a bit faster.

It’s where you see tigers.

I would not ordinarily recommend Hitler’s tactics and strategies as a general rule, but he sure knew how to solve the Hitler problem, at the very end. Donny, maybe look into that.

It helps to give the pineapple a really good squeeze to reduce the liquid before you put it on. Then use the juice for sangria or whatever. :)

The grocery we use keeps boxes by the checkout. Saves them throwing them out, since they get hundreds from suppliers.

It’s not even that it’s low-tech. Tape is high-tech, it’s been updated over the years. LTO10s are targeting 36TB of data per tape.

It’s the pig-ignorant newbies thinking “hurr durr tapes are 1970s tech”. Hard drives are also 1970s tech.

They have their advantages and disadvantages, is all. They’re not well suited for situations where you can’t guarantee a clean room (or enclosed tape reader), for instance, since the tape medium is exposed to the air. Dust can mess it up REAL good.

But for some situations, it’s indispensable.

Yeah, we’ve got on-prem cloud hosting at a university, and moving away from VMware is an ongoing process. Still. Two, three years after the writing was on the wall. They’d rather pay the Danegeld.

Or they’ll just pay the extra money and avoid all that.

Entering the lion’s den to offer the lion a handjob and offer Alberta as tribute, more like.

Seconds are already an SI unit. We’d have to redo every textbook, and overcome centuries of work.

I like right hand rule. Thumb in direction you want the bolt to go, out or in. Fingers curve in the direction you need to turn.

Down 5% today, not super stable. Could have been a dead cat bounce last week.
