My understanding – and I’m not a New Yorker – was that he has been often credited with reducing crime in NYC. Part of that was, as I recall, by cracking down on minor crimes, things like aggressive panhandling, with the idea that that was kind of a gateway drug to more-severe crime.

I don’t know whether that approach or him in particular was responsible for it, or whether it was other phenomena at the time – my gut is that changes like that usually aren’t just driven by one person – but my understanding was that crime did considerably fall off around the time, and crime was something that a lot of New Yorkers had been really upset about.

It is whatever you buy a battery and charger for first. Then you are unwilling to forfeit that battery to just buy another too

One could go pneumatic, get a compressor and pneumatic tools.

You can get portable compressors.

MPD + ncmpcpp, I hate both and I’m yet to find anything better.

I’m an Emacs graybeard

Emacs does have a music player, emms, which is what I use.

I just have a concern about fan noise and was wondering how loud or quiet these things are since I will be sitting next to it all day when working. It doesn’t need to be silent, since nothing else in the rack, though currently nothing like the levels of typical rack equipment.

Not really what you’re asking for, but there are enclosed racks with sound isolation. Though they are a bit pricey, to my way of thinking.

I don’t think that soup does improve as leftovers.

If you do like old soup, though, there’s probably bacteria growing in it, and as others point out, that won’t be happening with caned soup.

Given the trend to make “Super” variants of games for the Super Nintendo, we could have seen “Mega Mega Man”.
