Random Thought of the Day

Quote: Nareed

Question: Given this year July 4th falls on Tuesday, do most of you in the US expect to get Monday off as well?

I have to arrange all my time off in OCT/NOV for the following year
So last fall, I marked July 3 as a off day
Paid day off :-)

Futurama: Worlds of Tomorrow, is out in the app store.

Unlike Futurama: Game of Drones, it has animated cut scenes and dialogue voiced by the original cast.

Maybe the boss is up to something.

The television series MythBusters investigated the effectiveness of Chinese water torture in episode 25 of its 2005 season. They found that it was extremely effective, capable of causing emotional cracks within a couple of hours even in a controlled environment.[1]

The office coffee maker broke last Friday afternoon.

I had to pick up office supplies Saturday, so I thought I'd buy a new coffee maker there as well. I looked up online and saw a basic 12-cup (6 real cups) Mr. Coffee reasonably priced. The decanter looked similar to the one we already had, too.

when I got to the office today, I found the decanter is exactly the same, and so is the filter basket. So now we have spares :)

The important thing about coffee makers is the COLOR. You have to be able see any roach or whatever so you can avoid drinking boiled roach coffee, so I always buy a white coffee maker, never a black one. This is particularly significant here in Florida or with someone who is in a state of alertness similar to mine before they ingest that second cup of coffee.

The Sally always has lots of coffee makers available real cheap..

So I spent the first day of my vacation recovering the Win 10 PC.

Long story short, do NOT use AVG antivirus software.

Earth's gravity isn't uniform across the planet. At the equator, the gravitational acceleration is 9.7803 meters per second squared. At the North & South poles, it's 9.8322 m/s squared.

But here's a weird anamoly: Mount Nevado Huascarán in Peru has the lowest gravitational acceleration on the planet, at 9.7639 m/s squared. So if you fell from a height of 100 metres at each point, you would hit the surface in Peru about 16 milliseconds later than in the Arctic.

Why do you say that? I use AVG on lots of my computers.
