I haven't had it happen to me for a while now. I used to have a boot repair liveCD that'd always do the trick, but I don't think that specific distro even exists anymore.

The gist is you'll want to boot a liveCD and use the liveCD to reinstall GRUB, I'm sure you can find the right incantation to do so online somewhere.

Windows basically never nukes the actual linux install. It DOES like breaking the bootloader though. Which is fixable but still deeply annoying.

It was yes. Still I dont think the captain was super happy about it.

The crux is that a first-past-the-post voting system incentivizes voting for one of the two big parties. Voting third party is equivalent to voting against your preference of the top two. There's a bunch of really neat voting systems that avoid this problem handily.

By far most ink cartridges come without heads. The heads are mounted in the printer itself. Even if the head is on the cartridge the controller can still be in the printer.

I feel like most people would agree she's a terrible person. Makes for a great character in a tv show though because she shakes things up.

Just replace them as soon as you notice the surface is broken.

So like twice a month?

I feel like Sisko is a much worse offender tbh. Whoever played Jake just did too good a job of immitating Sisko.

I mean you can just run gold t-shirt foil through a plotter and get pretty much that exact effect. It'd still be a massive pain in the arse to get the waste removed and the pattern applied, but nothing that's outside the realm of capability for cosplayers.

Measuring by units would be WAY more skewed. The top 10 would all be free items, or if you exclude those $0.01 items. Measuring gross revenue is much harder to game unless you count "actually selling $500 hardware a lot" as cheating somehow.

That seems easy enough to make. Weave some metal thread into the paper or some such and you'll jam most shredders handily.
