My dad (a licensed master electrician) kept a plug with a switch attached for just that purpose. Plug it in, flip the switch, find the breaker. But he never used it on Federal Pacific breakers. He did say that different brands of breakers affected the life of the switch...

Much easier to draw a square.

Easier to draw a simple quadrilateral. No need to worry about right angles.

Much easier to draw a square.

but where is the fun in that?

 

[Half Fast]

Easier to draw a simple quadrilateral. No need to worry about right angles.

That wouldn't satisfy the problem statement:

Part-time job?

Part-time job?

Nope. Two server crashes. Lots of data recovery attempts. Data all saved, but the restoration was a disaster.

As I've reminded vendors and others, there's a reason they call it "backup software", not "restore software". You have my sympathies..

All the data was restored/recovered, but the one server had to be ground up rebuilt. This only after fighting with restoring it for way too long.

“Select all squares showing a fire hydrant.”

My favorite is "select all squares showing a car" when there are 2 sedans, a mini van, a (toy) pedal car, a pickup truck, a bus, an 18-wheeler, a tiny electric delivery van, and one of those enclosed three wheel motor scooters in the 9 boxes.

"Select the squares that contain a bicycle."

The bicycle is mostly contained in 4 boxes, but the back of the wheel clips another box, I spend 5 minutes debating whether to select it or not, and then they tell me I'm probably a robot.

Are you sure you're not? How would you know? Have you ever dreamed of a unicorn?

Or an Electric Sheep?

Or an Electric Sheep?

If androids someday DO dream of electric sheep, don't forget to declare sheepCount as a long.

"Where's Simo?" would be a pretty mean game.

Especially targeted to a Russian audience.
