It's good to have a second engine but it sure sounds like Gecko isn't long for this world.

You mean killing jobs and making electricity more expensive?

Yeah, shocker.

Texas: The fundamental right to privacy will be protected in Texas because owning a television does not mean surrendering your personal information to Big Tech or foreign adversaries.

Also Texas: You can't own more than 6 dildos and if you aid someone in getting an abortion we want your neighbors to snitch on you.

You know, because of the fundamental right to privacy.

Interesting use of the word 'deserved' - and the answer is he probably 'earned' his spot at Wharton, yes, he probably did earn it.

He didn't. His older brother got him in:

This is on top of lying about graduating first in his class (he didn't), never being on the Dean's list (the school provided a list of everyone on the list in 1968), or his SAT stats (someone took it for him according to Trump's niece).

So no, he didn't earn anything.

There was a time when a single checkbox would get rid of any notification of updates in Firefox. Not any longer. For years we are plagued with harassment if we don't update two seconds after the newest release is out.

For all the time, effort, and money Mozilla keeps wasting, it would be such a simple task to put back what was in the software from its beginning days.

You answered your own question. These are not investors, they are traders. Their sole job is trade on the discrepancies inherit in the system. The faster they can buy low/sell high, the more trades they can do which in turn leads to more profits.

They may not make much on each trade, but do this multiple times each day and the numbers add up over a year.

That may explain it. I have a Qrevo S, which is from 2024, while yours is from 2022. The only thing that it ever gets stuck at is one spot where, from under the couch, it can see out the ground-level window, and get stuck between the couch and window ledge (not actually stuck, just confused), because the LiDAR sees out the window. And I fixed that just by setting a small exclusion zone there. It never "gets lost" - maybe your house has some vast open spaces that it can't handle? But the LiDAR seems to see pretty far. The only other issues I've had are things like where I'll have a loose cord on the floor or some large piece of debris or whatnot, and even then, it's usually good at not getting stock on them. I'm also impressed with how well it deals with doors vs. a Roomba - my Roomba used to always get itself locked in rooms by accidentally closing doors after it entered, while the Roborock really tries to avoid ever touching them.

The Qrevo S has actually rotating mops, and they do a superb job with the floor. Spotless. My robot has the hardest mopping job in the world, too - it has to clean under my parrot's cage, and he poops off the edge onto a plastic mat under it ;)

I've never had to contact support - hopefully I don't need to :)

Good job, comrade!

So, not a permanent Federal employment with its guarantees? But perfect for bribery and grift. Why this doesn't surprise me?

The fact RFK is taken seriously by anyone is a stain on our collective intelligence.

There are more and more every day. And thanks to him, more kids will die. Have to give him credit, he's doing his part to stop over population.

Do you live in a city?

They just don't know where in the glacier it fell.

although map editing sucks and it often gets lost and can't properly reset its position. It needs to be rescued pretty often which is a major fail.

That's very distinctly not my experience. What version do you have?

A real vacuum cleaner just about maxes out a standard residential 120v 15a circuit, as anyone who remembers the incandescent bulb era can attest to. A circuit with a few lamps shared with a vacuum cleaner could easily end with you flipping a breaker or replacing a blown fuse.

When you look at the absolutely tiny lithium ion pack these robo-vacs come with, ...

Sitting on my kitchen table right now is a drone pack. It's 57,5Wh, smaller the batteries of most modern Roombas. It's 50C - thus it can output up to 2,9kW. And there's even higher packs available than that. Lithium ion cells can handle some truly high power outputs. It's *energy*, not *power*, that is their limitation. Run a pack at 50C and it'll be empty in a bit over a minute. That said, on hard floor surfaces there is absolutely no reason why you should be drawing more than 300-400W or so, and you can get by with well less than that. High powers are for like shag carpeting and the like. Also, the head matters more than the power (though of course contribute) - for a hard floor, for example, a fluffy roller head is ideal.

Pet hair has never been an issue for me with robots. My long hair always is. It's way longer than any pet's.
