Under previous guidance, the CCSA recommended a maximum of 10 standard alcoholic drinks per week for women and 15 for men. Now, it says no amount of alcohol is completely safe, and recommends a maximum of two drinks a week to stay within the lowest risk threshold.

I'm surprised it's that high.

I think it makes sense to put labels on alcohol though considering weed and cigarettes already have massive warning labels. Seems like legacy or grandfathered in policy that we don't already.

    I know I can use an HDMI source like a Raspberry Pi and a small screen for HDMI and could twist copper cable together and measure continuity through them to narrow down which is which but I'm wondering if there is an easier way. Maybe something I connect to either end?

    That's the issue I'm running into. Once you select 4 pages per sheet it seems to override the booklet mode.

    Adobe seems to try to print

    1 2

    3 4

    for example. The only option I can think of is to arrange the pages to work with this but it gets a bit difficult with nearly 100 pages.

    I'd like to have each page a 1/4 the size of a regular piece of paper, in a booklet style, printing on the front and back, and have 4 pages per page one side of piece of paper.

    That way I can cut the page in half and minimize the amount of paper I use while making a quarter page size booklet I can keep in my pocket.

     

    It has two screens with and I can toggle between the inputs of my modded consoles (PS2, PS3, PS4, original Xbox, Xbox 360, and Nintendo Wii), my ThinkPad, and my desktop computer below my desk. When something is being displayed on my smaller screen it's passed through my PSVR processing unit so I can view whatever the output is in VR.

    Everything is connected to a passive audio mixer.

    My two computers are connected to a USB switch so that I can swap between the keyboard and mouse back and forth without relying on software.


    I feel like it's pretty functional but I am wondering if it's a bit too cluttered.

    Edit: The Xbox 360 Kinect can be used for its intended purpose but I can also plug it into my PC and use gestures for mouse movement.

     

    It's a bit of a long story but someone tried using spray foam to fill the hole around where my sink's plumbing goes through and it seems like it essentially expanded too much and causing the paint to tear.

    I was thinking maybe I could get some rigid insulation cut it to size, stick it in there, and spackle over it followed by painting it. I would probably cut the rest of the paint to the top because it looks as if it is going to tear eventually and it's at an angle.

    Any suggestions?

    The gap is close to an inch in size.

     

    I've been trying to recall a game I played briefly as a kid at a friends house.

    I feel like it was similar in style to Settlers 4 with an isometric view, typical click and drag a square around who you want to control, and a focus on building and combat. What makes me think it wasn't Settlers 4 is I don't recall it having that kind of cartoon style and I vividly remember there being some kind of cheat code that would reveal the map.

    The reason I say it's around 2006 was because I originally went to buy it in a Future Shop (a Canadian store that was bought by Best Buy) but my mom said I should get Civilizations 4 instead because she recalled my uncle talking about it.

     

    For context there are stickers on Lush product containers that have a cartoon photo of the people who made it. I'm wondering is there one person who just makes them? Are they made using preselected features? Do employees get to design them?

    No clue but I'm curious.

     

    Here are some things I plan to keep from my current build:

    • Corsair Vengeance C70 case
    • EVGA SupaNOVA NEX650G 650W 80+ Gold Certified power supply
    • 4 HDD + 2 NVME + 1 SSD

    Here are some things I plan to get new:

    • AMD Ryzen 7800X3D 4.2GHz 8-core processor
    • be quiet! Pure Rock Slim 2 CPU cooler
    • 32 GB (2*16GB) Corsair Vengeance DDR5-7200 RAM
    • Asus TUF Gaming OC Radeon 7800 XT graphics card

    Should I consider anything else?

    Everything seems to work out in PCPartPicker with two exceptions.

    It seems like most motherboards will need to be updated to support the CPU. I don't know if it's possible to do this without a CPU or how likely I am to get a board with an older BIOS version.

    It also says the RAM requires 1.45V more than the recommended maximum voltage of the CPU (1.35V).

    I plan to upgrade the RAM, cooler, and CPU first and do the GPU later when there are more sales. I don't think this should be an issue. I was thinking about upgrading the RAM later but my computer currently has DDR4 and I think the CPU only supports DDR5.

     

    For me it's Corner Gas. I still think it's pretty funny and there's a decent amount of references to Canadian stuff but not enough to be off-putting. I feel like an American wouldn't be confused watching it even if some of the references get a bit dated overtime.

    I have only seen a bit of the animated version in waiting rooms.

     

    From my understanding it varies from airline to airline.

    I'm looking at the Air Canada page that has details for example which can be found here.

    But I'm not sure certain what it means.

    Can I have a portable power bank that's 160W? If I bring that could I also bring on a laptop and a Steam Deck?

    It seems like you can bring 15 devices theoretically.
