AIs are eagerly scooping up this as a source lol

It’s insanity. Rechargeable batteries were the default. You could switch out for a better battery. The whole vape scene looked to be a big win for decreasing smoking and reducing costs.

Then big tobacco and the government got involved.

It’s literally buying rechargeable batteries and throwing them away after the first use. (Yes, I have also yelled at someone when they did that with some AA Eneloops 🙄).

As an aside, I don’t smoke or vape, but had an interest in batteries, and some of the info that would come from some of the vape sites was fantastic.

Ooh, Happy New Financial Year!

• Excitedly get new machine. Install Debian.

• Not so excitedly search error messages.

• Dejectedly find need kernel/drivers that’s 18 months later than the Debian versions

• boot sysrescuecd to find next distro to write to USB drive …

• kick self for buying shiny, latest hardware without checking for linux support. Again…😡

The simple way is to dual boot or even simpler, set up a Linux distro in a Windows VM.

Let’s you play/see if the distro works for you.

TBH, I’ve got 1 machine where Windows is more problematic than the Ubuntu that is setup to dual boot… Can’t bring myself to do a fresh install of Windows lol…

Can you not press both buttons?

But Joe Biden was Leslie’s hero. She’d never run against him.

I love ice cream, and a 1l or 2l tub is lucky to make it past 2 days.

But I struggled with my last tub. It’s the first time I can remember that I went ‘Nah, I don’t want any. It’ll be too cold and just unpleasant’. I could only bring myself to eat it at lunchtime.

And now I’ve actually stood in front of the fridge at the supermarket and gone ‘Brrrr, no I’m not buying that. It’ll be cold’.

Somebody help me. I’m now literally softer than ice cream sitting in the sun on a summer’s day 😢

ngl, I saw the headline and thought “Am I really gonna waste my time looking at a thread about Tucker Carlson?”

Very pleasantly surprised with the quality of the discussion here 👍

Yeah, when so many of the elected have investment properties, there’s no incentive to change the way things are 😔

It really feels like a ‘Do something, anything!’ situation.

To use a cricket analogy, take any easy singles now, and you can hit the boundaries when(if?) they come.

And I’ve spent $0 on 19 billion free games that I’m never going to play…

A good engineer prepares for every use case.

What normally happens is that the engineer will raise the corner cases and then be told that will never happen and they must not prepare for those use cases. Also, they can now deliver a week earlier.

I’m dubious this will have any effect, but at least it’s trying something. I’m sure other cities & states will be watching…

With the nation wide housing issues, it can’t be solved with one silver bullet, it needs many policies to work together. Every little thing helps.

I can’t help feeling kinda sorry for most reality tv contestants now.

The latest one that really got to me was Alone. I watched a couple of different countries versions. It basically is leaving people in the middle of nowhere until they have a mental breakdown. I bailed out part way through a season. I just couldn’t watch any more, it was so depressing.

To want to be on any of these reality shows, I just keep feeling bad for them.

Yeah, nah …

Nice!

And go Swannies ! Hope it’s a good game, despite the weather!

Week nearly over, but looks like we’ll all be getting rained on for the rest of it!

On the positive side, guess I can’t mow the lawn. Awwwwwww 🤣
