It’s a corporate laptop, so no telling what it’s trying to do.
I don’t make it to the next day. I hear the fan running full blast in my bag while it commits seppuku.
In truth, I’m just a Frank Lloyd Wright fanboy.

I wish this had stuck.

Can't you just slap a Lamborghini-style chassis onto a lawnmower engine if you want?English2·4 days agoGo to a junk yard and look around the import section. Without a front bumper, it can be very hard to tell what make a car is.
Even RMS gave up on curl and elinks

You guys are missing the point- reading the meter isn’t the problem. To disconnect you, they open the cover the nest is built on, and pull the clear plastic meter out.
Though the one in the picture has a clamp ring instead, you’d still disturb them.
I’ve decided that’s a stall tactic. It’s like asking you to pull forward so they can get you fresh fries.
They don’t want or need to know if you have version 2.13.45 or 2.13.52 installed, they’re bouncing it back to you to game the metrics. The faster you answer their stupid question, the dumber said questions get because they have all of the relevant information already.
Ever notice how they only ask one question at a time? Why not ask all 4 or 5 at once?
The receptacle thing sounds like an attempt at vendor lock in.
