I remember people giving Biden shit for smelling his granddaughter’s head, right in that spot in the middle of the scalp that always smells like a newborn baby. People make me so sad for the little wholesome things its obvious they missed out on, so they label it “predatory”.

Fair enough, but 42 in any octet is going to be common anyways because nerds love us some Douglass Adams.

You think you’re arguing with me, when I’m just quoting Driver’s Ed, and several states’ Driver’s Manuals. Mental Gymnastics? 🤷

Actually, it is a driver’s job to avoid and/or mitigate a wreck by any means necessary. The only mental gymnastics taking place are yours. You’re arguing against the wording of multiple driver’s manuals.

While I’ve never seen a router default to the 172.16… range, to me it just means that someoe bothered to modify the settings. No wonder the network is faster.

Fear-mongering much?

They are counting on you to not show up in court.

Last time(20 years ago) I got a valid out-of-state ticket though, the fees and whatnot were less than 20% of what I expected. One criteria where Illinois is cheaper than Indiana, it turns out.

I’ve heard this from cops I knew, as a more general rule; No one around here drives less than five over unless they are drunk, stoned, or into some shady shit.

Anything less than 5mph over the cops consider suspicious where I live. 6.2 mph over is slow-lane, but at least reasonable.

Anywhere with sensible traffic schools. Accidents are almost always caused by drivers going 10mph faster or slower than the rest of traffic. Being the odd man out in this criteria is dumber than ignoring some numbers on a sign that everyone else is ignoring.

EDIT: Since it’s become apparent it needs stated for those of you who missed that week of Driver’s Ed, and didn’t read the manual; One: I merely quoted the manual; Two: it is INDEED the job of EVERY driver, regardless of their position relative to specific other drivers, to take any actions neccessary to avoid or mitigate an accident in the making. Idiots like you are the reason No Fault states exist.

I mean, I agree its already broken, but proponents of this “it’s x thousand pixels wide!” non-sense will point out that at least it rounds up to that number, so I opted to point of the vaule at whict that excuse, too, breaks down. 4k has 4 times(2x2) the pixels as 1080P, and 8k has, well shit, 16 times(4x4) the pixels as 1080P. Someone shit the bed with this non-sense.

Apparently the “official” standard defines nothing beyond 8k. Go figure.

Good luck with that, shit-bag.

Oh, so you’re certain that OP even tried to lookup a service manual, and that there’s not one available? Endoscope and the right screwdriver together are still cheaper than a new blender.

Ever heard of a teardown? Go watch some on Youtube or Peertube. You won’t find many that fail to disclose the manufacturer, that break the plastics, nor will you find many, if any, blenders that use a more common screw-head for the motor shaft.

… but sure, pontificate on behalf of targetted rage-bait that actively discredits this community versus anyone with an ounce of experience or common sense.

I deal with worse than this Blender on a daily basis, or rather I might, if the internals of the devices I work with weren’t behind literal lock-and-key, and yet, NONE of them are left un-supervised with your standard schmuck, their CHILDREN and pets.

HIDDEN screws, glues, DRM and fragile tabs are indeed a real problem. They are major reasons we need service manuals and “guitar pics” and all sorts of other non-sense that inspired the Right-to-Repair movement. OP’s Blender has NONE of those things.

Is that new blender going to help them fix other things around the house? $30 endoscope plus $8 screwdriver is still cheaper, and now they’ve broke the one blender, they’ve given themselves the excuse to just buy a new one anyways. Sure, applaud them for it, here of ald places.

Okay, but, 4k has literally 4 times the number of pixels that 1080P does, 3840 horizontal(“4k”?) versus 1920(“2k”?), and 2160 versus 1080 vertical. We are not so far from breaking the “1000pixels” interpretation completely; “13k” would be 12,480 pixels wide.

Seems to me that marketers are trying to conflate “k” and Megapixels, but if we started using Megapixels for Displays, the side-by-side numbers would look truely pathetic(versus what “seems common/attainable”, not what’s “percievable”.

Full HD/1080P is 1K. If you meant better than 1080P though, then more power to you.

Since its not about access then they never had to break anything for any reason besides their own impatience, plain and simple.

This was NEVER about access to the screw.

Sure, a twenty year character assassination campain against her created the Bimbo Squad that … character assassinated, intimidated, harassed and blamed Bill’s victims. Republican conspiracy!

Don’t forget her Bimbo Squad to deal with Bill’s victims. She blamed the other women, just like any misogynist.

They didn’t find the screw by breaking the blender. They were able to reach it with a screwdriver before that, just not the right one. They broke it because they were too impatient to find a way to look into the hole and then find, make, or buy the right tool.
