Honestly, I have never heard of that term before. Regardless, here is a cute pic for you.
You shouldn't be scared of something that doesn't exist.
I like flying things. They are neat.
Rehabs do teach you a ton of things though and that is cool. I am sure you are getting really good at your "I" statements by now too and that is always good to learn for a ton of situations in life.
Don't worry about the pot fantasies. It's not alcohol. (Rehabs tend to treat it like the devil, if you haven't seen that yet.)
Above all else, your main takeaway from rehab is that rehab sucks ass. It can be enjoyable for some, I suppose. (I must have liked it so much I went back at least 4 or 5 times.)
An old acquaintance was confused as to why I kept going back and then he simply told me one thing: "If you don't want to get drunk any more, then don't drink. It's as easy as that." It took me the better part of 15 years to figure out what that really means, but I have a few years of sobriety under my belt now. (I don't count days. I was sober today and that is all that matters to me.)
(thinks out lound..)
If you could force different speeds and different voltages, you can make some guesses as to what the cable might support.
USB packets use CRC checks, so a bad checksum may indicate a speed or physical problem. (Besides stating the obvious, my point is that doing strict checks for each USB mode gives CRC more value.)
I just looked over the source code for libusb (like I knew what I was looking for, or something) and it seems that some of the driver(?) components hook really deep into the kernel. There might be a way to test specific parts of any type of handshake (for dataflow or voltage negotiation) to isolate specific wires that are bad by the process of elimination.
I think my point is that a top-down approach is likely possible, but it's probabilistic.
Your hands could find you. ;)
You don't need to bleed brakes for a pad change. Change the fluid if it's time to be changed, which also happens to be convenient to do while the wheels are off. Brake pad wear might coincide with fluid change timing, but not always.
Nope. I can't even see a resemblance.
Why not? Don't you wish you could detach your hand and send it on its own mission?
Cable testers can bypass all of the standard driver and USB negotiation bullshit before anything else. I would imagine building a device to manually control when and how the connections are made is much easier than fighting for low level device control on systems like Windows, macOS and Android.
I wish you the best and glad you are excited about your first chip! While I don't regularly go to AA anymore, I'll still walk into an occasional meeting every few months as a healthy reminder about why I don't drink. (I have personal disagreements with that style of program, but that is OK! To each their own.)
But yeah, alcohol is a hell of a drug. I knew all the bad things it was doing to me and I welcomed it. Since I was too chicken-shit to put a gun to my own head, drinking myself to death was the next best option.
And honestly, you sound really excited about the path you are taking and nobody here should give a shit about how far off-topic you might get. You keep exploring your sobriety in your own way! (For myself, if I was sober for a week or so, my ADHD would kick-in hard and my hyperactivity was uncontrollable.)
But yeah, I'll still check-in here every once in a while too. And yeah, you are helping me more than you know, btw. (Drunks share a very unique bond, even if they are half a world apart. )
