These thermal imaging cameras don't have specific temperature for each color. The hottest area in view will always be at the extreme white/yellow end of the graduent, and the coldest will be at the black/purple end. Even with more insulation in the attic, the hatch will likely still be this color. That is, unless the hatch was more insulated than the ceiling, or it was colder in the attic than the room this photo was taken from.

I personally shy away from the idea of binary labels. Whenever you have two opposing extremes, I find hard to believe that someone can be the 100% embodiment of one and 0% of the other. Whether it’s ‘authoritarian/libertarian’, ‘left/right’, ‘straight/gay’, ‘neurotypical/neurodivergent’, or even ‘male/female’, I see all of these as a spectrum. Whenever binary opposites exist, I believe we all fall somewhere in the middle.

To say that someone is 0% man or 0% woman seems to reinforce the idea that these labels are based on physical characteristics, concrete, and/or absolute. If you believe that personal identity is fluid, and that change is constant, then how can you reckon with the idea of someone being 100% either? It won’t be possible to swing upward passed 100%, so the only other option is down; into the gray area and constantly wavering over time.

As for myself, I might have been born with a penis, but have plenty of characteristics that I would not consider “manly.” I strongly prefer to sit on a toilet to rather than use a urinal, I’ve worn a skirt around my home and fantasized about having breasts and beautiful hair, and my Spotify wrapped from last year classified me as a “pink Pilates princess”. I’m absolutely not presenting these to declare myself a woman, but I suspect each of these admissions would diminish my standing as “man”, especially in a non-anonymous environment.

If anyone was ever unsure about their gender identity, experimenting, or just non-committal to a binary gender assignment, I can see how a having another individual assign this black/white classification on them (and banning them as a consequence) would be incredibly stressful and harmful to their wellbeing. With how gray gender identity can be, it is no surprise if someone in this mindset doesn’t push back with a claim of the opposite binary choice than the sex on their birth certificate. I believe this kind of moderation serves to reinforce conservative societal norms and discourage empathy across the gender spectrum.

I didn't downvote, but I can assume the reason is that other sources like the one you just affirmed had already been posted in this thread by the time you asked. It was likely interpreted as disingenuous.

That's not what is being reported.

Maxwell collected letters from Trump and dozens of Epstein’s other associates for a 2003 birthday album, according to documents reviewed by The Wall Street Journal.

The letter bearing Trump’s name, which was reviewed by the Journal, is bawdy—like others in the album.

A birthday card to a 'terrific guy' who likes beautiful women as much as Trump does, many of them on the younger side.. Just besties celebrating a 50th birthday and reminiscing about all the fun they've had together.

The WSJ first broke the story on Thursday. However, it didn't include an image of the card, only the text and a description. From all the sources I've seen, the original image has not been released. It is possible that someone only leaked a written report to the WSJ and they dont even have a photo of it. I suspect all these photos are fake, but since Trump will likely sue for defamation, I don't believe this story would have been published without a high certainty of the text's authenticity.

You could also use a wooden panel as a spacer to get a series 3 upper box over the raised edges of the lower box. If you're worried about the top box sliding off, the spacer can be bolted to the bottom of the upper box so that the raised edges still function as a barrier to capture the upper assembly.

Good question. I'm honestly not sure. You have a good point about screen readers, so I think the way you have it would be preferred by those who need the text. Alternatively, I've seen "[sic]" used to indicate that text is reproduced exactly as it originally appeared, including errors. However, I'm not sure if that would help screen readers in any way.

I was only pointing it out because it seemed fun to claim "worht" was in any way correct. Also, I always wondered if the alt text was manually entered or if some AI/ML generated it from the submitted photo. Thanks for clearing that up for me!

Hmm, looks like there's a typo in the alt text. It's supposed to be worht.

I'm still rocking a 7-year-old Galaxy S9+. A few years ago my headphone jack wore out and the gapped hole no longer retains my earbud cable. Since then, I've been using a USB-C adapter, but the combined earbud and charging use is starting to take it's toll and the port is beginning to feel loose.

Adapter use seems more abusive to the USB port than just charging, as it occurs when the phone may be in a tight place (like a pocket), with torque applied to the adapter body. I'm convinced that if I was limited to USB-only over the full life of this phone, I would have lost wired headphone and wired charging capability a long time ago.
