@yehuda_feldmann we will hope that the peace-loving citizens of Tel Aviv will rise to unseat their right wing government determined to start WW3 so that the people of the entire region and the rest of the planet can return to some semblance of peace and restitution can be made for those killed and harmed in the recent conflict. ๐ โฎ๏ธ

@fetchezlavache the only place worthy of consideration as shelter is the construction tunnels they bore to dig the main Shinkansen tunnelsโฆ if one could break in or find someone with the key.

@yehuda_feldmann thanks. Thatโs about double the price as last month. Free shipping I assume (i.e. you will transport it sans perfume without gratuity?)
Christopher Keener, pHd :ddg:
@RoboticistDuck@mas.to
@cypnk yes this is the kind of thing that topples governments! Hoarding after the quake warning is probably factor as are decades of strict regulations about rice production, an aging population of farmers, and maybe even the tourism boom.

@justinto usually one of the LEDs in the circle burns out and you can short it and the circuit will adjust with one less LED, but sometimes itโs a more serious issue like a bad capacitor, etc.

@justinto donโt toss such well engineered bulbs. There are plenty of tutorials on YouTube and elsewhere about reviving them for at least a bit more life through relatively simple means.

Biwa Pond is a natural body of water at an elevation of 4,500 feet in Shiga Kogen in the mountains of northern Nagano Prefecture. It has a depth of 68 feet that is apparently used for limited electricity generation. It's name derives from the shape of the pond resembling a Japanese short necked lute (biwa).
