Something I should have learned DECADES ago: the reason pencil lead keeps snapping even after you’ve just sharpened it is because the sharpeners are poorly designed.
I’ve had enough issues that the second I found out I was allowed to use a mechanical pencil, I never looked back.

Newer hard drives of 6 TB or more do not have the middle screw holes that older hard drives had. I just populated a server with seven 8 TB drives but didn't run into the issue because those specific drives didn't need the middle screw hole removed in their design, so they had the traditional three holes per side. I dodged a bullet there as I spent $600 on those drives and they wouldn't have worked properly in my NAS case if they had the newer hole arrangement.

France has mandated that large and medium-sized car parks cover at least 50% of their area with solar panels. The government is offering substantial incentives to offset the cost of installation. There are exemptions for environmentally or culturally sensitive areas, which may opt for green canopies (such as ivy or shade trees) instead of solar panels.
This scheme is estimated to add up to 11 gigawatts of solar power to the country’s electricity grid. Boru
