I resolved it by installing an air purifier in the bedroom where she vapes. But agreed, her vape isn’t invisible (though I think some e-liquids are) and OP didn’t mention so it’s low probability in this case.

My partner’s vape triggers ours https://www.kidde.com/home-safety/en/us/products/fire-safety/combination-smoke-co-alarms/KN-COSM-IBA/

Does anyone in your house vape?

If you are a disregarded entity, are not currently and do not in the next 6 or 12 months expect to make enough profit for an AGI above a certain percentage of the FPL, and your state has Medicaid, you can apply for Medicaid with dependents using recent profit and loss reports to substantiate your effective self-employment income.

Go camping together. Nothing fancy, just a weekend at a park with a small tent and backpacks.

Let your team know you’ll be unreachable. Once there, phones off. No working. Just walk and talk, rest and eat, explore your surroundings, focus on what and who is in front of you.

You may not sleep well on night 1, but you will on night 2, especially if you covered some ground that day. The morning after night 3, however, will be the most well-rested you’ve felt in a some time. The effect carries to subsequent nights, then eventually wears off, but can give you the chance to restructure your days for better sleep in the long term. Use as needed.

Ah! Been there. Allocating lanes on small systems always seems to have more trial and error than I expect.

And here’s that x4 SFP+ card: https://www.trendnet.com/products/10g-sfp-pcie-adapter/10-gigabit-pcie-sfp-network-adapter-TEG-10GECSFP-v2

can’t find any SFP+ card that is x4

Pretty sure mine is x4. I’ll check.

Edit: confirmed.

When your brand of comedy deals heavily in the prejudices of a time (and most do) be prepared to adapt when times change. If you can’t or won’t, your career ends. That’s comedy, Jerry.

If that’s all it took to kill comedy, it probably wasn’t worth saving.

I have nothing against practical monogamy save for this. You must free the ones you love before they can freely choose you.

It’s why insisting on lifetime guarantees of sole-possession is the worst possible way to soothe your jealousy or fear of abandonment.

If you can’t let go of that fear long enough to put someone else’s happiness first, it doesn’t matter how many oaths, contracts or incentives you use to fortify your conquest. You will never know what real trust feels like.

Maybe yeah. Also got the sense from the strong opinions that this is a preexisting debate, presumably in the context of continuous workloads or cached arrays with minimal spindown intervals. In that context it’s true that rotational disks still often win in energy efficiency and robustness (assuming we’re comparing them to consumer SSDs and not the latest enterprise u.2 stuff that’s rated for continuous work).

Not sure what everyone is arguing about here. Clearly SSD is better for intermittent r/w, whereas HDD can be more efficient at continuous r/w (especially in terms of watts/TB)

Just looking at specs should be enough to see that. SSDs can idle in ready state at close to 0 draw (~0.05w) whereas HDD requires continued rotation to remain ready. So consider an extreme case of writing for 1 minute then maintaining ready state for the rest of the day. For that the SSD will be far more efficient, obviously.

I don’t know, but I’d guess the buffered chipset controller has more stability during certain power state transitions.

Most ducting in the dash of vehicles can be accessed with just a screwdriver, and there are usually only a handful of screws and plastic fasteners/snaps you have to remove. Downloading the diagram from a shop manual will show you where they are so you don’t have to find each of them, but it’s usually apparent in situ.

If you don’t remove the ducts to clean them, while you may be able to lessen the smell by removing vent covers and snaking cleaning materials through the ductwork, your car will still always smell. The only way to get rid of the smell entirely is to remove the affected ducts and properly wash them.

Before any if that, however: do you know which ducts are affected? It will reduce your workload considerably, especially if the affected duct is in fact your fresh air intake, as I would expect.

The way I would determine that is to

1. run the fan on high with recirculate ON and all windows open for several minutes, then
2. sit inside and close the windows. Is the smell lessened from before?
3. If so, confirm the diagnosis by turning recirculate off. If the smell suddenly gets stronger, it’s likely the rodent never made it past the blower manifold.

In that case you’re in luck, as you may not need to disassemble the dash much at all. (You would be working mostly in the engine compartment and passenger footwell.)
