My guess is it’s similar to the electric motors they put in cars vs industrial motors… they can both put out X amount of power but the industrial ones (or in this case the laptop power) can do it continuously without overheating while the other can only output “up to” that power rating for a short time without burning up.

In this case though, the laptop power probably also outputs a higher voltage as well.

Oh 100% for sure they do. It would be silly to not take advantage of real world testing if they had the chance.

He is the master debater.

That’s weird, still works for me.

It’s still there, just further down the page.

Earlier we reported on the deaths of five health workers in an Israeli strike in Derdghaiya, southern Lebanon last night.

The government-run Lebanese Civil Defence emergency service says the five workers were waiting in a makeshift centre in a church hall in the southern town of Derdghaiya when it was hit by an Israeli air strike.

We’ve spoken to Father Maurice Khoury, head of the St George’sCatholic parish church there, who says those killed were “a model for humanity and chivalry. They sacrificed their lives for the wellbeing of others”.

Father Maurice adds that parishioners and villagers tell him there was no military presence on church grounds, and no gunmen in the vicinity. He says he doesn’t know how the health workers “would have a target on their backs?"

Father Maurice, who left the village on 22 September right before the Israeli escalation, says the health workers killed were looking after the 200-400 displaced people seeking shelter there.

“The church’s two halls were filled with IDPs [international displaced persons]. The Civil Defense used to come with food, water and aid. They were the only one supplying aid to the IDPs,” Father Maurice tells us.

He says one of those who was killed was “the pinnacle of generosity” while another “was a member of my parish. He was my right-hand man. He strived to provide a dignified life for his wife and three daughters. What wrong did they do?”

Israel says it only attacks military targets and the town was in an area which the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) had warned people to leave.

The BBC has approached the IDF for comment.

With additional reporting by Joanna Majzoub.

You can do that with the 9 volt batteries and feel how much “tingle” they have, but never heard of it working with aa batteries. Wouldn’t he have to stick the whole thing in his mouth to complete the circuit?

“Do a back flip!”

And I was just going to comment “What year is it??”

Have they tried turning their government off and on again?

If the guys that made Internet Explorer also made bombs…

Yup sounds about right lol

I think she’s gotten a few jobs off there in the past but she’s always on the hunt for better/ more stable gigs. I’ll have a chat with her and find out for sure. Thanks for the tips

Thanks for the tips. I know she’s been looking at some other places as well and she has gotten a few jobs here and there but nothing major. She’s gone to school for video editing and she’s pretty good at it (fatherly bias kicking in here) but she’s always looking for something to help fill in her time.

That’s my thought on it as well. I only knew she was on that site a little while ago and right off the bat the address sounded off to me so I started digging in to it only to find that whoever is running it REALLY doesn’t seem to want anyone to know who they are, which is raising all sorts of alarm bells in my head, but my daughter is insisting “lots of youtubers go there looking for jobs.”

That means nothing to me, because I know how easy it can be to look like a busy legit site when the reality is anything but. And the fact that whoever is running it is actively trying to hide their info is very concerning to me.

I hope he’s right, but I’m not holding my breath until Putin is in the ground where he belongs.

In Democratic America school finishes you.

Taco Bell is usually involved.

I read an article saying one type of the pagers that blew up was an Apollo AP-900, which uses triple A alkaline batteries, so there’s no way a battery overload could have caused that.

I don’t know if my energy levels had anything to do with adhd or if it was just a unrelated companion, but I’ve always been that way. Sugar was banned in my house I think because my mother thought I’d implode if I got my mitts on any. I couldn’t even sit long enough to watch a whole movie from start to finish until I was in my 30’s.

Sitting still and not being bored senseless. I was a hyperactive kid with adhd, having to sit anywhere for more than 10 minutes was the bane of my existence.
