It’s an island with a Chunnel to the mainland… the switchover absolutely happens.

Read my post you replied to, I realized that.

Last I checked Calais is though.

That’s why I called it the American solution.

I assumed the EU would have some mechanism in place to make it viable, but damn, just checked the one way rental prices from Calais to Spain (didn’t even think about the left/right driving), and the rental fee is 65USD/day, but a one-way fee of $978 and $208 in sales tax. For a Fiat 500 manual….

I see now.

More expensive? Damn. In the states getting a last minute flight costs 3-4 times more than a 24 hour one way car rental. And it looks like London -> Barcelona is only a 17 hour drive, but yeah, the whole not driving thing makes it a moot point.

Could have gone with the American solution; rented a car and been back home in less time than you spent waiting at the airport.

Nice

You may have been working for Patrick Rothfuss.

I found Tinder’s add campaign for Wisconsin.

“robot wolverine”

Then you would need to build a robot Jim Harbaugh to coach it, and it would choke in every important firefight.

Why? Wisconsin cheese is awesome.

And Wisconsin more than doubles Argentina.

Nah, that’s what sick days are for.

Do a Ferris Bueller and have sound effects ready to go as well.

I feel like Backyard Scientist is lurking just out of frame about to blow something up in a ridiculous manner.

Do you by any chance have a dishwasher or something that uses hot water scheduled to run at this time? I discovered with my boiler when it is really cold, if I am running hot water for a shower or something, its not heating my radiators during that time. During our christmas cold snap when it was like -1 outside with high winds, in the time it took 3 people to take showers we lost 10 degrees inside. As soon as the showers were done temp started clawing its way back.

Had to scroll way to far to get here.

Martin does not owe anything. Rothfuss on the other hand… he promised in 2009 Kingkiller was completely written and would be released at the rate of one book per year. Add on to that he conned a lot of people in donating to his charity promising content arriving by Feb 2022 at the latest, that has still not materialized.

In the case of Antarctica, at the South Pole, yes. Landmasses at poles of a planet are generally going to be dryer as the weather patterns are not as affected by the Coriolis effect nearly as they are at higher latitudes.

The ice sheet is up to 3 miles deep. Antarctica is also a desert getting less than 2 inches of precipitation a year. Also, the glacial ice flows out. Imagine pouring something very viscous, like honey on top of a bowling ball. That kind of like how continental glaciers flow.

So as the ice flows out, the annual sheet accumulation thins out, to where 1 year’s worth of accumulation can be like 1mm thick. And those layers can be read like tree rings for the age in an ice core.

The cheap way? take some sandpaper to the inner ring to rough it up and increase surface area. Take a rag soaked in water, preferably without a neutral PH and rub it around the inner hole for about 5 minutes, resoaking the rag every minute or so. This will help dissolve the feldspars in the granite. Immediately after while still wet, stick it in the freezer for an hour. Pull it out and let it come to room temp. The water will have soaked into the areas of dissolved feldspars, frozen, expanded, and chipped out undissolved material. Repeat this process about 50 to 100 thousand times, and you will probably get close to the 2" diameter.

Or get a stone router bit like these and work the inner circle until its the desired diameter.

It was a single example, not an exhaustive list. And I clearly said it’s not the full reason. At most schools IT accounts for 5-7% of their operating costs. I just would like to see the rise in operating costs included in a breakdown like this to really see a full picture.

Not saying shenanigans aren’t going on, but one thing that always gets left out of these posts is how much more it cost to operate a college than 40 years ago. IT infrastructure is stupid expensive to build and maintain.

They aren’t failures, they are steps along the way to innovation
