I'd read a novel detailing how that alternate timeline plays out.

The LG 27GM950B is a 5k 27" with 2,304 dimming zones and a 165 Hz refresh rate. I have a strong suspicion that this is the same panel as is in the new XDR. They haven't announced pricing and full specs yet, but I doubt it's going to be more than $1,800, meaning the Apple XDR will be $1,500 more for a webcam, an aluminum case, and some speakers.

The LG LG 32U990A-S 6k is a good replacement, minus the local dimming, for the old 6k and has Thunderbolt 5.

Based on the rumors, I was expecting an actual upgrade to the Studio Display with mini-LED with the price remaining the same. Instead they went with this absurd offering.

I had all kinds of feeders. They were great and I loved looking at the wildlife, but they dropped a lot of seeds on the ground around the feeder. That attracted mice and the mice decided they should build homes near their food source. They decided the best place to live was inside of my cars.

They ate through the wires going to the brake lights, left seeds everywhere, got into one seat and ate the occupant detection sensor, ate 3 seat belts. I managed to fix the seat belts for ~$300 and the brake lights I spliced back together. Sensor is still shot and I'm not sure I even want to mess with disassembling the seat.

Neither Israel nor the US took credit for the strike that hit the school so this could be a matter of genuinely not knowing which of the two was responsible.

The US military's Central Command (Centcom) said it was looking into reports of the incident, while Israel's military said it was "not aware" of any IDF operations in the area.

The empty space between the components in the frunkless version makes it look like they would be a lot easier to access for DIY repair. Certainly easier access to the 12 V battery would be an improvement.

Stinks like the Gulf of Tonkin incident and I bet the admin is involved somehow.

I got an Asian pear tree, a Nijisseiki specifically, a few years ago. Asian pears are usually really good, particularly the expensive ones that come in little pear bear bras. When you have your own tree though, you can harvest at absolute peak ripeness without having to worry about them going bad. Absolutely amazing fruit. Chill it in the refrigerator for an hour or two before eating so it's cool but not cold. Perfect dessert.

I started using leather conditioner on my work gloves and it probably doubles the lifespan if you use it regularly. Especially if they get wet or contact soil, that really pulls the oils out.

I got 4 used 14 TB drives for $400 a few years ago. If the AI bubble bursts at the right time, maybe I can upgrade to 4x40 TB for the same amount.
