I practice this same thermal battery idea as well with an extra tip of having a couple of fans on timers (sun up to sun down) that sit on the floor and blow the cold air up. It makes a significant difference, especially if you can sit a fan where the cold air from the AC falls to the ground.

I work in the telecom industry in a call center environment. I just saw an addon for the platform we use with this exact capability. I laughed, rolled my eyes & shared it with peers for them to laugh.

I would personally never recommend implementing something that can change the voice of the caller. Without having researched the product at all I will just say I cannot recommend any company install this capability. My primary reason for concern would be if legal proceedings have to go forward, what would stop either side from saying it was AI generated voice and not the actual caller? (Yes, for all I know the call recording may be stored raw.)

Ahh, there it is. Linux user confirmed. :D

Ahh. Thank you for the info! I too was in that group who did not know! Can’t wait to see what the final picture comes out as!

For those not in the know, what is Canvas? I do not recall seeing this last year.

Same! I liken it to a knock off version of Mongolian Throat singing.

What took so long?

Looks like the amount you get from buying it at a Dollar Store. I’ve had a similar issue when I forgot deodorant on vacations in the past.

Imagine living in a tourist state and thinking it won’t have the pitfalls associated with everything being catered to tourism.

Highly recommend everyone read this. What a crazy wild read it was. Will have to set news alerts to get updates on this one because I need to know the conclusion.

I would love to know what this so called justice official’s stance is on the Death Penalty; for or against.

I will look it up later as I am being lazy at the moment.

That’s the whole point of What If… Ridiculous questions with science backed answers! The baseball at speed of light is hilarious.

3. Block stuff you don’t want to see. I block porn, sports & country specific ones that I do not speak the language.

I used to listen to them all the time.before the move to Spotify. Once they came out from behind Spotify and I could get them in my preferred app, I just couldn’t get back in the grove of listening to them. It seemed like for every 5 of their releases, I would find one interesting.

Don’t let this stop anyone else from listening to them as they research the shit out of their topics. Their Jim Jones episodes were more informative than any other description I have ever heard.

I have also noticed it seems harder to find stuff on Google now. My pet theory is that it is the building in of AI to search (Bing Chat anyone?) that is affecting Google search results. Lately, I have been going to Bard & ChatGPT to do searches but treat it more as a jumping off point to help point the direction of where or how to search.

Not perfect, but just a method I’ve been playing with for the past month off & on.

Not sure I fully understand the use of two domains. Does RHEL IDM do more for Linux machines compared to a Windows DC?

For my setup, I have a single Server 2019 AD Domain Controller that my Linux VM and laptop connect to using SSSD for domain level authentication.

I do have to be cognitive of bending over after swallowing something because I can feel it trying to make it’s way back up.

For about a year, I used a husband pillow behind my pillow so I would sleep upright. Eventually, I figured out what works best for my body which is basically just make sure I don’t eat at least 2 hours before bed.

Other than that, the fundoplication takes care of preventing stomach contents from coming back. Here’s a quick video!

Never hurts to get checked. See about having an enscopy performed and they can check it out. Another procedure is called a Esophageal Manometry. They put a thin tube up your nose and down your throat and make you swallow fluids to measure how well your esophagus squeezes or in my case, they said it spasmed and basically doesn’t respond as it hood.

I wish you the best.

I see what you did there and I am disgusted to say I love you for it. :D

First Dr visit was sometime in 2018 with surgery in Q2 2019’ish. I would have been 37’ish when symptoms first started coming on.

From what I’ve read, only 1 in 200,000 have it so it took multiple Dr’s to finally find one who said to me, “I was just at a convention last month and heard a talk about a condition like yours and just happens one of the top Dr’s on achalasia lives here in our city.” Few months later and I was scheduled for surgery and it’s been worlds better post-surgery. :)

It definitely affects my life every day with what I can & cannot eat (bread is a nightmare) but I take it in stride and drinks copius amounts of water with every meal.
