Recent exposures have been linked to large school events in January and February — including state wrestling championships at Utah Valley University, which resulted in multiple people being diagnosed with the illness.
Three new cases confirmed in eastern Utah were also connected to a high school wrestling tournament last month, the Tri-County Health Department in Vernal announced Thursday.
What I find baffling is that they aren’t banning wrestling.
Wrestling is obviously the issue here, not vaccines.


Conversely, I replaced the battery in a T740 last week for a client .
8 screws total, including keyboard, and battery (2, and not glued).
I wouldn’t give this one a 10/10, but 7-8/10, probably.
Nice to work with, captive screws all around the shell, so no lost screws, no bullshit “screws under rubber feet” like HP loves to do…
Only gripe is that the usb c is not on a daughterboard. Or power and ports for that matter.


I have a lower end, but capable gaming laptop. R7, 1Tb Nvme, 32Gb, RTX… It is easy to open, service, expandable, with space for a SATA 2.5, for example. Spill proof, lighted kbd, etc.
It’s kind of built like an old school ThinkPad. A tank.
And that’s why I’m getting rid of it.
The thing IS a tank.
I really use it as a laptop, I do onsite stuff, so I lug this thing around all day. Many use these as “transportable”. I don’t, I have a beefy workstation at home, so the laptop generally lives in its backpack.
So, for me, a professional grade, light but sturdy, and repairable machine is just what the doctor ordered.
If you need rugged, some gamer laptops are pretty tough and accessible, but you will pay the chunk tax.
If you REALLY want rugged, get a proper ruggedized laptop, and carry it around.


Boy, aren’t we glad to meet ourselves!?


I don’t concur. I believe you are talking more of graphic style, while I’m talking more about the worldbuilding, the ambiance, the conceptual, pre-steampunk visual language. While Shuiten is a sort of Ligne Claire extremist, I find Moebius very difficult, if not impossible, to classify. He is often called Ligne Claire, but his style is often very gritty, and his protrayal of movement is clearly inspired by Franquin, the master of movement. Moebius has such an ability to move between styles, while keeping his personality, that makes him very difficult to classify.


I started Arcane, and pretty soon I felt like they were just ripping off a lot from the 80’s Shuiten and Peeter’s graphic novels, that I just quit.


Fun fact: Band of brothers depict Easy as the ones entering The Eagle’s Nest, while it is mostly credited to “La Nueve”, a company of Spanish Civil War hardened republican combattants who joined free France forces to keep fightinig fascism. They fucking liberated Paris, too, but were not credited until a few years back because the French couldn’t stomach that some french didn’t liberate Paris.
La nueve would make for an amazing miniseries.


Counterpart is simply brilliant. That such a gem flies under the radar is really a shame. Slow horses is great too.


That I had to scroll this far to see The Wire and Deadwood is appalling! Chernobyl is also a triumph.


Plus the problem of having my data hosted, not just In another country, but In a different celestial body!


I’m running an AM4 Ryzen 9, with 64Gb of DDR4, and the thing cooks. AM4 is just great.


Yeah, Ive been working on engines (mostly my own, for fun) for decades, and I never knew about brake fluid and glass.


It is not. It says what I want to do, and where.


I didn’t know that, and I have used liters of the stuff. Learn something every day.
Is it just Dot3? Dot4 is more common these days.
BTW, kids, we are talking about brake fluid, so don’t go spraying it on your camera lenses!


Fun fact. Air carbines, with a scope, can be very precise at short-dish range. Essentially a low powered .22, and fairly silent.
You should be careful to make sure you don’t hit glass, as it may shatter.
I wonder why in most jurisdictions there is no licensing needed?


Why shouldn’t dot3 mixed with paint? Just so I know why to avoid it.
