What is the newest installment of 'Random Thoughts' on Physics Forums?

In what way?

Maybe a German rhyme can help:
"April, April, der macht, was er will!"
(April, April, who does what he wants!)

It is meant to refer to the weather, but who knows?

Ok. And I was referring to referenced strictly to months. I am aware of names like Augustus, Julius and the likes, but those are in reference to emperors and not related to the months themselves, unlike April, May, June, at least that I'm aware of ; on these bring the most popular references.

I spent a lot of resources trying to figure out how to determine if a device is 5G compatible , without any real success. Best I found was calling my phone rep and giving them my IMEI. But, yes, this may end up being the real version of what Y2K was supposed to be. When are the 3G towers being removed?

There is the actress July Namir. And from a baby page https://www.babycenter.com/baby-names-july-69925.htm

It's the bandwith. Some USUKAUS info.

Thanks. Guess we'll have to wait and see until August to see if there's a serious fallout.

Now I need to set my PC to transfer data through the USB and not just automatically start charging. Phone provider techs have all given me poor advice. Otherwise will have to use something like Share It on my PC ; I already have it in my phones. Guess old phones can also serve as a backup medium.

If you have local WiFi, they can also be used as tablet computers; my wife repurposed hers that way.

I (Seriously) know of some versions of the term "procrastinating" that are not negative. You put of things until the right moment and when you feel ready. Faster/Immediate is not necessarily better. But it's a tricky deal and can backfire if you don't do it right.

Apparently there's a procrastination society. Their monthly newsletter is called "Last Month's News"...

Yes, guess it may have been noise.

Have run into a lot of variants of the word 'Line': Deadline, Top Line, Bottom Line, Life Line.

You are so yesterday. It should be slackline!

Didn't see it in the Lineup. But maybe it's there in the movie 'Chorus Line'.

I keep going back to the issue of the type of relation between Conservative Vector Fields and Holomorphic Complex Functions. Conditions: $U_x= V_y; U_y =V_x$ are identical. So every Holomorphic function maps to a Conservative Vector Field. Does it also go the other way round? Does it make sense to talk about Conservative Vector Fields in higher dimensions, e.g., for maps $$F(x_1, x_2,..,x_n)=(F_1(x_1,..,x_n), F_2(x_1, ..,x_n),..,.., F_m(x_1, x_2,...,x_m))?

Nice Quote from Benjamin Alexander, former DJ, Jamaica's first alpine skier:

"I've come to appreciate that Olympic participation is a worthy goal. Participation that's aimed not at getting a gold medal does have its place," he said.
"Most people, most athletes at an Olympic Games ... one: no medal, and two: don't get into the finals. That's a reality.
"Life is a struggle, anything worth doing in life is a struggle. And anytime you enter into a struggle, you are going to suffer. And the one thing I would like to communicate to people that people think that suffering is something to be avoided: no. That's the reality.
"What we need to develop is: how are we going to survive in the struggle and the suffering, and eventually triumph?"

Sometimes, it seems like this is easily forgotten.

They even have a women's bobsled team!

The Robertasled team.

I think they didn't pass the qualifications, i.e. I haven't found them in the results of the best 20.

However, the pilot of Bob Germany 3, currently (half time) second, is called Mariama Jamanka. Close.

Onions are like covector fields! Onions have layers! Covector fields have layers!

I assume copyright expired for that image. Otherwise Disney lawyers would be contacting Mr Stewart.
