    @topspin I'm also getting a broken embed. Looking at the source code for the invisible button, I only get

      <button class="ytp-large-play-button ytp-button" tabindex="23" style="transform:scale(0.85)">
       
        
        
        
        
        
        
       
      </button>
    

    Maybe someone got really confused and left all that white space there for the video to play in.

    Yeah, I have to retract my statement. I see the usual YouTube embed (video title and preview) but no playback. Since usually broken embeds mean I don’t get anything at all I didn’t even realize it was broken for me, too.

  • @HardwareGeek Dang, the was a lot more painful than it should have been. Not buying the dongle, or installing it (although it wasn't exactly Plug-n-Play). No, it took a half hour for the stupid hotel portal to show up so I could actually connect to the network.

    Yeah, that's why I ask Google. Except that doesn't work for contacts I don't know the location for, because despite knowing their timezone Google doesn't let me know it.



  • @HardwareGeek Good luck with the connection. Hotel WiFis tend to be... slightly unreliable.

    Batteries can get a bit weird when really heavily depleted by very high currents. Stuff like the nanostructure of the surface of the electrodes can get in the way of charge transfer, yet with some time the natural diffusion of charge carriers (and the action of the caustic electrolyte) can fix things. It is all weird non-equilibrium stuff (and fascinating surface physics).

    The battery needed a good rest.

    Status: My pickup died a few days ago due to an epic FUBAR with the breakaway battery on a trailer failing (it involved smoke, a bit of flame, and pressurized sulfuric acid... 🔥 ). My starter would not crank afterwards, acting like the batteries were depleted. I couldn't jump-start it, and I tried charging the batteries for a while and that made no difference either. Almost no electrical juice at all and my in-dash voltmeter read about 8.5. So it seemed like the trailer failure caused a major electrical fault in the vehicle. I had to get it towed to a mechanic.

    I spent last evening inspecting all the wiring I could access, including doing resistance checks on the 12V lines to see if one might have an overheating high resistance spot somewhere. I can't find anything wrong at all. I also can't explain this mechanic's claim that the fuel system kept losing prime and stalling the engine, because I'm not having any such problems with it.

    Reading about @Tsaukpaetra and his reboot issues reminded me that several of my systems had a kernel panic yesterday and has not yet been fully restored. Luckily I run all my systems in dedicated VMs with redundancy where available so I could function mostly normal at work today, just that my bootup time after the nightly maintenance routine was prolonged, meaning I spent the first two hours working very slowly.

    Other than that, good luck!

    So, my iPhone seems to have a problem where it looks like something (the battery?) is slightly pressing the display outwards - both long sides have a small displacement in the right/left middle between hull and screen which was not there before. Top and bottom don't display this gap. Pressing downwards gently makes the display move visibly.

    Good thing I actually did opt for Apple Care+ this time so a display repair should only cost 29€. The phone is still working and I'll swing by the Apple Store on Tuesday so it kind of has to survive until then.

    Well, less than an hour from Phoenix

    Now in Texas. Yeehaw!

    TIL: The speed limit on the interstate in Texas (outside cities and construction zones) is 80 MPH (128 kph). I've never driven anywhere with a speed limit that high. Also, Texas is a place that does have a "left lane is for passing only" law.

    As a German, those are the sanest things I've ever heard about Texas.

    It's been more than a decade since production (presumably), maybe the water dried out?

    I will say the deterioration of the skin was mostly controlled by that point,

  • Statsu: To follow up from my post last week that disappeared without a trace, I manually changed the winter tires on both my parents' cars. This time I had to buy a new socket (because the craptacular adapter I bought that was supposed to let me use my 3/8" sockets with 1/2" breaker bar broke right half in two while loosening the third lugnut) and new torque wrench (the old one I had only went to 80 lb ft, but my parents cars both need 100 lb ft) which happened to be on sale.

    I also just bought a new torque wrench as I needed one that did 30Nm and I only had 2-24Nm and 40-200Nm.

    What do you have with that kind of spec?

    Yes, I copied the wrong number.

    Cylinder head bolts. Normally I'd consider "close enough" and go for 24Nm-and-a-bit but this isn't one of those times.
