You know that episode of Silicon Valley where the kid genius hacker admits he took down the bank on accident because he didn’t know what the fuck he was doing?

So they can falsely advertise $20 tickets.
I’d break that number down further, into both taxes and fees, and then ask yourself why they made sure to say “taxes” first.
Nice try, NSA
Of course, BitCoin is doing better than ever, and it will continue to rise while Russia is under sanctions and drives demand.
Unless you do what they call a “rookie move” and don’t keep a personal wallet.
Yes, in this sense.
Clicking the mechanism converts the manual input to a mechanical or electrical output.
If you pushed the lead down entirely by hand it wouldn’t be a mechanical pencil, which is exactly why you pushing or flipping a plastic cover into place entirely with your own muscle power makes it a manual shutter.
When you type on a mechanical keyboard, what, precisely, do you think is happening? Are you literally outputting a letter by pressing your finger down? For that matter, what do you think a mechanical keyboard does?
Fucking Google it.
I do love having to explain basic terminology to a relatively well educated yet stupendously deaf audience.
Really restores my faith in humanity.
We’re not fucking cooked, and the mental infantilization of the population is not complete.

People are dumb, and the only problem some people have with racism is that it can be directed at them.

You can show them where it is, but you can’t make the jackasses drink the water.
Y’all have fun sharpening your mechanical pencils.
Do you believe a ball is a mechanical system?
You can have a manual input to a mechanical system. For example, pulling a lever to operate a machine.
The typical distinction is whether it uses and translates the input through various mechanisms. Moving a shutter with your thumb is not a mechanical shutter.
Flipping a switch or pushing a button to do same thing could be. The manual input is translated to a separate output instead of the person providing the energy directly.
Did I explain this middle school vocabulary lesson to your satisfaction?

You’re welcome for the lesson on the finer semantic details of your secondary language.
Bonus terminology:
“Appeal to authority”: A logical fallacy in which it is claimed that a person’s expertise in a field is proof of a claim itself. This is a disputed fallacy, as there are indeed certain instances where it might applicable, such as a mechanical engineer describing the workings of mechanical systems, but is always a fallacy when they attempt to use their expertise in one field as proof in another.
That’s not what mechanical means, but I can understand the confusion.
Those are manual shutters. If it’s mechanical, unless you are using a very archaic definition or speaking in a different context it is capable of self movement in some form.
Not that I’d be particularly surprised to find out product marketing on the question is all over the place.
No, he’s a black anti-semite. It’s a thing.
You willingly own a laptop that can open its own shutter?
No customers behind the counter.
We take the trash out at 4pm though if you want to wait.
Yeah I worked at a Subway in college.
We’d just set it aside and it became a worker’s sandwich later.
Literally my favorite moment working there: Some douche was trying to be aggressive about the cost for some reason I don’t remember, some nonsense of some sort. Said he wasn’t going to pay for what he ordered. I say “Okay! Bye!” and threw that shit in the trash right in front of him. The sheer shock on his face as his little tantrum didn’t work out the way he wanted… Like we were paid enough to give a shit, lol.
But there will be now
