    Baseball & MLB Thread, 2024 edition

    I think it's "&" for some sort of parser and "gt" for "greater than". I don't know much about it but I guess that "&lt" would be the "<" bracket. Back to baseball: You're overlooking their ballpark which is beautiful (and cheap!) while located in a great area to explore on food pre/post game...

    Sadly all of my friends/coworkers in LA are either a) not baseball fans or b) fans of other teams. Edit: realizing that tribus isn't a thing anymore. Mine used to say Philly --> LA

    Dumb confirmation: all ISO ThinkPad keyboards are the same, right?

    Could you just get a replacement Spanish keyboard and swap it out? It's been a loooong time since I've owned a Thinkpad but I think they are still more serviceable that most laptops. No idea what model you'd get, but Amazon (US) is listing a T470/T480 replacement Spanish language keyboard for...

    Other than your physical body, what's the oldest thing you regularly use?

    I had to replace the lid handle on one of them as it (somehow) looked like it was partially melted and difficult to grab with oven mitts. Thankfully Le Creuset hasn't changed the sizing of their lid handles in the better part of a century so a modern one worked perfectly. The won't help with...

    Other than your physical body, what's the oldest thing you regularly use?

    Similar for me. I inherited two Le Creuset dutch ovens from my grandmother when she passed. Our best guess is there are from the 50's

    Blood pressure monitors?

    Another +1 for Omron. Also a +1 to what Xelas said; if you want accurate readings be sure to find a reputable set of instructions and follow them (this PDF looks reasonable but I'm sure other reputable sites have good instructions too).
