    I have ordered a new MiniPC

    My monitor is an Iiyama something or other. I bought it some time around maybe 2010. It still works so I never felt the need to replace it. It just doesn't play with Windows 10 over an HDMI link any more.

    Lämmchen's Workout Thread

    Today's workout was threshold intervals. The first one was easy because it ended up being mostly downhill, but did take in a couple of short but steep climbs. The second one contained a gentle but steady uphill for much of it, and the third one finished on an uphill section. Along the way I...

    I have ordered a new MiniPC

    It looks like the one you listed maxes at 64GB and has an option to max it when you buy it. There was another one I saw that maxed at 64GB but the best option the site offered was 32GB. That seems like a bit of a punt - if they put 2x16GB in it then to upgrade you have to dump what you have and...

    Have you ever Googled yourself?

    Lots of fascinating stuff. None of it related to me, I have quite a common name so lots of other people with the same or similar names showed up.

    DIY faucet repair

    Depending on exactly what's being replaced, if the shutoff valve is close to the tap (and ideally it would be) you may be able to very gently turn the water pressure up and let it push something out. I did that when I couldn't get a good grip on the piece I needed to remove and didn't want to...

    Someone in your denomination who believes differently?

    I'm not sure what you're trying to say here. We're talking about generic situations where people believe differently rather than specifically about divine revelation. That said, if someone has a different view about divine revelation than the denomination of the church they attend that doesn't...

    DIY faucet repair

    Rubber gaskets and plumber's tape. And make sure you turn the water off before you dismantle anything.

    Pro-life supporters question:

    Josiah, in your opinion when does life begin? You make good points about inconsistencies in political perspectives, although I think a lot of the issue does ultimately boil down to the question of when life begins. If life doesn't begin until birth or later, abortion becomes a matter of...

    Pro-life supporters question:

    I don't think this is a fair conclusion at all. I never said that rape and serious complications ruin the pro-life case, if anything I freely accept they are a tiny proportion of people seeking abortions. The fact remains that situations like that make the situation more complex than "abortion...

    Do animals go to heaven?

    I'm not sure Scripture tells us one way or the other. I kinda hope to see some of the pets that have died in my lifetime again, but wouldn't like to assume either way.

    Why is Donald Trump participating again?

    You'd have to ask him. We can only speculate as to his reasoning. Maybe he just wants to be 45 and 47.

    Someone in your denomination who believes differently?

    I'm not sure how you got from that to "to each his own", given I noted that the person with a different view might be right (as opposed to saying they are right). There are so many denominations it's reasonable to conclude at least some of them must be wrong on something, so it's not a huge leap...

    Who takes out the trash?

    Our garbage company has a limit of 40lb per bag. They don't enforce it rigidly. We have a contract for two bags, so as long as the two combined aren't over about 80lb we're good. Sometimes I think we push the limits a bit. 200lb is a hefty bag to carry out to the roadside. I've carried 200lb of...

    Someone in your denomination who believes differently?

    I'm not sure how you got "to each his own" from what I posted. If someone has a belief drawn from Scripture that's not really "to each his own", and accepting that someone else's interpretation of Scripture might be the correct one even if my denomination teaches something else isn't "to each...

    When a person gets cremated,

    If they don't, it would raise a question about the fate of someone who died in a fire, or whose body was destroyed in some other way.

    Misquoted Bible quotes

    All sorts of things get ripped out of context. I don't know how commonplace it is but one I came across was "you will declare a thing and it will be established for you" (Job 22:28), used as justification to declare all sorts of things and expect them to happen. Job 22:28 does say exactly that...

    I have ordered a new MiniPC

    From the specs on the web site it doesn't look like it does - other machines show that they have space for one or two 2.5mm SATA drives and this one doesn't. They have a few nice looking machines there, although some of them come with strange config options (e.g. the board can take up to 64GB...

    I have ordered a new MiniPC

    Interesting, increasing it to 64GB of RAM and 1TB SSD only nudges the price to $789. It's not clear whether it would support an internal SATA drive, which is something that would be a definite plus for me. External drives just take up more space. I think when my laptop dies I'll probably look...

    Someone in your denomination who believes differently?

    Seems like a good approach. Since multiple denominations draw different beliefs from the same Scriptures they can't all be right, and if someone can argue with Scripture why they believe something that differs from the denomination it's possible they are right and the denomination is wrong. I'm...

    I have ordered a new MiniPC

    I have an old machine that doesn't quite meet the Win11 requirements but I managed to botch it to make it work. Curiously the instructions for the botch came directly from Microsoft. I don't know that I'd want my primary machine to be running an operating system that only worked because of...
