They were best sourced form a relevent alt.binaries. groups. Two I recall were Movies and Videos, which had TV show rips.

These were big in the late 90s going into the early 00s. And there were also SVCDs which were MPEG2 video insead of MPEG1. There were a few brands of DVD players that supported them, APEX was the 90s one form China and then Phillips had some models that played lots of formats including avi files. The avi files often used a testing mpg4 video codec in the microsoft video player that got extracted and became the standard and grew into Divx and later Xvid.

This is depressing, I just got this x13s hoping to give this arm craze a try as supposedly it has fairly full Linux support. I will just ignore any claims about Qualcomm until Dell or Lenovo release models with Linux pre-installed and they get real world reports over time.

Whew, thank you for this summary. I just got this laptop as it seemed to have "good" Linux potential, but I've been stuck so far. And as further caution to others, hibernate doesn't work on Linux, and audio is glitchy. Even on windows 11 pro the shutdown menu is missing. It seems to sleep on windows but not sure about battery drain, which is reported to be 1-2%/hr in Linux.

We as a planet were approaching Peak Oil consumption and this mishap has just acclerated that slightly. In all likelyhood annual oil consumtion will slowly decline or maybe quickly.

Philips Warm Glow A19 Medium Dimmable LED Light Bulb 479428, is something I've found. Phillips has been making more lights in the amber range. I really can't stand lights with higher kelvin ratings.

The cathedral movement started in 1006 with a quiet goal to redirect resources away from the crusades. It was also from a sort of cultural vacuum after the world didn't end at the turn of the millennium.

I checked to prevent a duplicate. I hope this isn't a pause while the other requirements get litigated.

It can be roughly calibrated to blood work later.

I wasn't positing "which is better?", I was just mentioning that some prefer the aisle in spite of the window view.

Personally I prefer aisle seats. I am 6'2" and the slightly curved space on the window isn't as comfortable for me, same with some trains and busses. Yes the aisle has its own negatives but that's the devil I prefer.

40 years ago we just wrote as much as we could down. The teacher usually hand wrote on the chalkboard. Some courses had slides, a precursor to PowerPoint. There is some reasearch that writing down on paper or with a stylus puts the stuff in extra places in our head.

The "Yen Carry Trade" has been a popular way to fund speculative plays in the financial markets.

"15 Year Old Wannabe" clearly differentiates him from any credentialed engineer.

Reinforced toes? That might be a reason.

In a statement, USAA said the association’s data is misleading because it lacks context about why a claim may be closed without payment. Those factors could include claims that were later reopened, claims covered under separate policies or multiple claims from a single event that are consolidated into one case.

“When all factors are included, less than 6% of USAA homeowner claims were denied without payment,” USAA said. “Most claims closed without payment involve losses below a member’s deductible or claims the homeowner chooses not to pursue.”

So thalen it might be 6-8 months to get to useable on a local open model? Of course state of the art will be a year ahead, a generation at the current pace.

This suggests otherwise, https://radwatch.berkeley.edu/background-radiation/ Another exposure increase is from increased home insulation likely increases radon exposure.

OK, I will hope it is a marker for better tech in the entire product.

Around NJ and the adjoining cities we have many College stations.

A curious one is truly independent as it's parent University closed WFMU https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WFMU

WSOU Pirate Radio a heavy metal and hair metal focused station at Seton Hall U.

It was different as we might listen together to the same station across town. There were TV shows too. Many stations had sort of countdowns of the week's top songs. It was just a different vibe.

The Ed Sullivan Show American Bandstand Soul Train

Top of the Pops BBC

One of the guys from Nirvana wrote a good essay on how Billboard destroyed music in the 1980s by consolidating the number of radio markets feeding the chart and allowing ways to trick the top seller lists. Before the MTV modern billboard era there used to be local artists on local radio and eventually one might break out onto other markets and eventually break nationally. Then artists became famous simply due to being good looking, having a catchy producer driven sound and a corporate machine getting them into everyone's ears. Things were a little different from the late 60s to the early 90 and some artists broke out organically.

Here is an example of a station that was independent an influenced early MTV programming during their first couple of years. WLIR documentary, 'New Wave: Dare to Be Different,' chronicles the rise and fall of one of the coolest '80s radio stations.

A funny example of a non-corporate act was the group KLF who hacked the Top of The Pops formula and got onto TV with absurdity. A documentary about them is called "Who Killed the KLF".

This isn't an item to cheap out on. Find one with aptX HD support and decent reviews if you have any room in your budget. I use the bluetooth to FM all the time. I have a pair, one in my car and another in my travel kit for rental cars. The key is to find one with aptX HD and other newer hi-fi codecs as there are older chips still being sold with lower specs as BT has been a thing for awhile now. I just did a search are there are ones that are usb powered or wall powered. Another better method might be a real FCC certified FM transmitter that are marketed for Drive Ins and "church parking lots" and use a bluetooth receiver or a usb-dac as the input.

Plastics, the increase in background radiation, pesticides, and or a side effect of extra calories are all possibilities. Daily allergy medicines might also be a factor as those reduce immune response slightly.

Regular Human Insulin isn't "rapid acting" it isn't delayed released like NPH, which lasts almost 30 hours, but it isn't "rapid". Yes getting R & NPH can keep you alive but it creates a caloric and glycemic burden as those types of insulin stoke the stove without enough glucose to run it. Some remote place in Greece might only have the pharmacy open M-F business hours like 8-4, we living in built up urban or suburban USA might not realize that other countries may not have pharmacies open late or over the weekend like here.

As to $20, their website says

"ReliOn™ NovoLog® insulin Rapid-acting mealtime insulin, starting at $73." on a block without any link to go further. This is rapid-acting but it is buried on the site to access any clear information about is that the stuff that can be accessed without a script.

Thank you for both of these recommendations.

The upcoming financial quarter is a big issue for whomever licenced that content to Apple and to a lesser extant Apple Inc themselves.

True but that is the old Human insulin which is in some way not a drug the way the current modified insulins are. Thanks for giving people this heads up.

Yes, I used to carry scripts for insulin and needles in my wallet just in case. NY implemented all bbut mandatoery eprescribe so I feel I have to use a national chain so my script can be seen if I'm traveling. And yes the notion a script for Insulin can be stale is truly insane. Of course regular checkups are best especially with being insulin dependent, but with 2 million T1D just in the USA this is just bad for everyone.

This is why I was uninterested in joining a clinical trial for one in the 80s. But to travel w/o backup blood sugar testing and spare insulin and needles is suicidal. For any T1D here, walmart has dirt cheap glucose packs in tubs or 8 and bottles of 50 for very cheep.
