It’s important to remember that no lock is entirely unpickable. It’s just a matter of time, skill, tools, and know-how. Generally speaking, if someone is willing to pick a lock, they will be able to pick your lock eventually.
But arguably even more importantly, most people do not possess the skill, tools or know-how to pick a lock and will not try. So you get the same benefit from just about ANY lock for the vast majority of people that might break into your home, in that any functioning lock will deter them equally.
Also, even if you have the most secure door locks known to man, even if they are literally unpickable, that will not keep motivated people from entering your home through other means. Having a perfectly secure lock just means that it become preferable for them to break in through a window, by literally breaking in a door, by your crawlspace/basement access, etc. They could also catch you outside the home and use you to gain access by threat, trickery or theft of your keys.
So, to me, even if a smart lock is less secure than a standard lock they are both going to act as sufficient deterrence for most situations and the tangential benefits of a smart lock can be worth the marginal loss of security. But that’s a choice you have to make for yourself.
Edit: Also, some features can make smart locks massively more beneficial to addressing a break in attempt even while being easier to actually break in. For example, there are can be some secret distress features, like a alert combination that unlocks the door but also secretly alerts the police of a break in. Or notifications that alert you that the door was unlocked even when you aren’t home. Smart locks come with vulnerabilities, yes. But also unique features that you can’t get with conventional locks.
American style bubble chip?? As an American, wtf is a bubble chip? Our chips don’t look anything like on that package. Im assuming these are potato based?
Pretty much, although these days a lot of folks find it more convenient to have the rules in .pdf for easy access. There's hundreds available. Here's a listing I had posted last night on the @13thFloor magazine I run over here on kbin - happy to crosspost if you feel it fits.
Ah OK, stuff that’s always free isn’t really what I made the community for, it’s more about grabbing games that are normally paid. I do think that !rpg would be a good place top cross-post to though!
Is there any butter/marg on this at all?
That's where your problem is.
Nice layer of whatever fatty goodness (if you don't have the "spreadable" kind, leave it out so it is), then the marmite goes on to that, spreads no problem and tastes nicer!
Now you've made me want a marmite sandwich and I have no bread in the house. 😥😂
I’ll have you know it’s only the best Aldi spreadable butter. The clumps are a requirement because the 7 year old will inspect the interior and needs to be able to see the butter.
There is spreadable butter on here, some has already melted at room temp so it’s not that visible. But it’s a tricky balancing act with the wee man. Too much butter is a negative, but he needs to be able to see it also. I’m hoping he mellows as he grows older, but I suspect that’s a vain hope! I shall try and perfect my technique. I’ve almost always been a toast and martite person, so I think this is a just a life skill I have never learned properly.
Best advice I can give in that case is make sure all the ingredients are at room temp, otherwise there's no escaping the torn bread situation.
The other option is make them as toast the night before and serve them cold and a little soggy the next morning? Sounds a little bad spelled out like that, but I'd eat that no issue. 🤷♀️
Somebody needs to find whoever was responsible for the original NT task manager and learn a thing or two. That thing was bulletproof. I had servers over the years that were so broken nothing else would run but you hit CTRL-ALT-DEL and tada!
for the love of god, for the past 27 years it’s been ctrl-shift-esc (since like NT 4.0), while ctrl-alt-del opens up the security menu thing. I can’t believe I’m saying this…
CTRL+SHIFT+ESC is simply a keyboard shortcut and is useless on a locked up system, it dies with the shell. CTRL+ALT+DEL throws a hardware interrupt, which contributed to the aforementioned bulletproof nature.
