Got a source on that? According to Backblaze, Seagate seems to be doing okay (Backblaze Drive Stats for Q1 2024 https://www.backblaze.com/blog/backblaze-drive-stats-for-q1-2024/), especially given how many models are in operation.

Heat-Assisted Magnetic Recording. It uses a laser to heat the drive platter, allowing for higher areal density and increased capacity.

I am ignorant on the CMR/SMR differences in performance

Pssh... call me when they're dipping in McD Szechuan sauce. That's the real sign of intelligence.

I grew up in NY. The gun control laws were draconian 45 years ago. I can't imagine they have become more lax since I departed the state 30 years ago.

My misguided, ignorant younger self would absolutely assume self-blame.

Now I've got engineering powers and skillz! I can rationalize... errrr, I mean EXPLAIN my missteps with root cause analyses and preventative actions! 😆

• Moving out at 16 to escape my abusive home life (after the second time I was hospitalized for injuries from being beaten)
• Getting out of homelessness twice and putting together a career
• Finally finding the correct set of tools in combination with the right therapists to un-fuck my maladaptive behaviors—bad templates that resulted in me repeatedly choosing bad partners as well as sabotaging relationships with a handful of truly beautiful people

Here's a link to the article for those people like me who don't trust a screenshot: https://www.themarshallproject.org/2024/12/11/pregnant-hospital-drug-test-medicine

Wow, yeah, it sounds like they shit in their own lunchbox. I'm always disappointed, but never surprised, to see the arc of a business move in the direction you describe. It's like they never learn about the death spiral of taking away the features that made them great.

I never got into SoundCloud, so I'm categorically ignorant here. What made it good in the first place and how/why does it suck now? Thanks.

My read of it was "the C-suite hates when the engineers actually know how shit works, and the leadership must kowtow to the people doing the actual work." YMMV or the commentor may have meant something completely different.

If the silicone is oozing, i e. feels oily no matter how much you wash it, make a thick slurry of baking soda and water. Scrub with a gentle brush and the slurry. Allow the slurry to dry, and rinse with very warm water. Wash with basic soap or dish detergent.

If your stains are just polymerized lipids, soak for an hour in boiling water with dish soap and washing soda (sodium carbonate). Silicone isn't completely inert, so you may have some staining.

That said, these methods worked in my galley for my silicone kitchenware.

This is a serious bummer all around. But wow, does that article suck on its lack of detail. But I guess actually digging into the facts wouldn't make for clickable headlines. "Oooooh, DRONES!"

1. There are Temporary Flight Restrictions (TFR) in place for that region.

2. Was the drone part of monitoring/firefighting efforts? If it was, that is a terrible error on the part of the sUAS operator and observer. Then again, smoke and fire, which would make for a less interesting story. "Drone participating in firefighting hits plane." Editor: Boooring! Let's make it vague so we can cash in on some drone fears.

3. Lots of drones won't even fly in a TFR zone. More professional drones will warn the pilot AND provide a warning about planes in proximity.

4. All sUAS 250 grams and larger are required to have RemoteID. Plenty of drones won't even fly unless the RemoteID is functioning fully. And if it shits the bed during flight, lots of drones will just automatically land. Again, except for more professional models or for small cheapies. So one of two things are true: the FAA knows exactly who the responsible party is, or the operator is an utter douchecanoe
