Thank you.

Brian Higgins had an unbelievably good 2023.

Would you care to list them so the conversation can be more complete?

Jeannie Miller would probably hold that over Meredith's head even longer than Sheppard.

No, the boomers with all their magic environment poisoning synthetic fabrics with antiwrinkle coatings did. The next seven generations will have microplastics in every part of their body, but I haven't touched an iron in a while.

Sorry, I must have skimmed too quickly and missed that.

~~Look for an expiration date. Radionucleotide style detectors end up failing with false positives when they reach end of life. You might need to have all the old ones replaced.~~

A relay switch could work. You would put the car 12V and ground across the coil connections, the 12V on the NO connection, the panel on the NC connection, and the power pack on the C connection. Make sure you get a 12VDC relay.

Are you going to have the panel installed permanently on your car?

Definitely don't connect a 24V source directly to your cars 12V system. There's a good chance of frying something important. A fuse would not protect from overvoltage so don't rely on those to protect components.

I lived in an area that was going to start strip mining for sand that was the right consistency for fracking. Plenty of conservatives were amongst the loudest opponents. There's plenty of hypocracy, no need to exaggerate. Their reasons were not wanting to have so much heavy equipment on the roads and fear of silicosis, not opposing natural gas extraction.

But if they have an accurate title like "Rishi Sunak Mildly Insulted By Student" we might realize how much of a non story this is and not click. Won't you think of their ad revenue?

Maybe lemmy is too popular for the hipsters.

The majority of people occupying the same bed will have congruent driver/passenger sides. Distant strangers don't need to know which side you are referring to. Couples from different regions could adopt the local convention.

You could just leave a line attached to the raft and a pole on shore.
