Ah, gotcha.

I searched the text of the article for 117, zero results found.

Okay, can we get the facts straight OP?

Is it $17 billion or $117 billion?

The article says $17 billion, but you typed $117 billion in the post body...

Strangely, I kinda like it!

I'll pass though, I make my own avatars (which apparently I still haven't applied to Lemmy..)

I'll pass, AI doesn't need any more training data from me than it already has, especially focused on my username.

Thank you for the public service announcement, I had no idea this was such a common issue. I should probably keep some emergency testicles around as well..

😂

I actually own 2 penises, I keep the spare in a jar in case of an emergency.

/s 😂🤣

I happen to be a penis owner.

So what would happen if I were to install and use such a monthly tracker app and pretend I've been having regular monthlies for a while, then suddenly I miss a couple periods, then suddenly start having periods again?

Would the cops come beating my door down claiming I had an abortion? 🤔

Fuck this dystopian mass surveillance shit!

WTF? I just played that just long enough for my queen to take over their queen, and it turned my queen into a rook?

Is that even a legit rule in any variation of chess rules?

I wasn't aware of that either, now I'm kinda curious to try to find it in my 512 Atari 2600 ROMs archive..

Well shit, I figured out what the real issue was.

I'm on a laptop with only 3 USB ports, and I'm running a physical laptop hard drive on an adapter on one USB port, and a laptop CD/DVD drive on another adapter on another port.

Obviously that's probably pushing the power limits of the USB power, but it's worked before, so I didn't see why it wasn't quite working right now.

But this time I was trying a different DVD drive, an HP TS-T633P slot loader drive. Apparently that drive is extra power hungry compared to a conventional laptop drive, so I dug out my old tray loader drive.

Apparently the slot loader drive was competing with the hard drive for power, and they were apparently taking turns robbing power from each other. The system is perfectly happy with the tray loader drive though, no reconfiguration necessary!

🤦‍♂️😂🤣👍
