I put that out but the stupid chicken choked while I was looking for a YouTube video 4:42 long

I saw the thumb and just thought, Macos for maco Monday?

The trick is to say “Linux sucks! It can’t even X!” Where X is what your issue is preventing. You’ll get the answer, to prove you wrong.

I got it, and beat it, in the last month, and I agree. Had a blast.

“Digital librarian”

I’m sure Mr Brazilian knows how bowls work, but like me doesn’t understand how they can be Canadian

There’s some loon still plastering their ill informed, anti Vax / anti mask stickers on every bit of street furniture across the nearby town centre.

In 1999 I spent a week in Cornwall (south western tip of the UK), staying in a spot right in the middle of the path of totality for the eclipse that summer. Every day, glorious sunshine, even got a bit burnt. Except one day. Day of the eclipse was thick clouds horizon to horizon. Ended up watching the BBC coverage from an aircraft via a 3" portable TV.

Did get to see the approaching shadow over the ocean, so at least that was pretty cool, but still disappointing.

Don’t think I’ll have another opportunity in my lifetime unless I travel internationally specifically to see one.

Sample size of two, but mine don’t seem to have strong feelings on them either way. Although the older one (still in single digits) prefers Minecraft on the pc to the Switch, despite starting out on the latter.

So that’s why the LHR graphics cards were a bit cheaper during the boom

There’s also the fact the mobile gaming industry worked hard to make it an ad riddled, predatory monetisation & whalebait laden skinner box hellscape.
I don’t deny there’s a few gems mixed into the dogshit, which is a shame because I’m not going digging for it.

Adicts gonna addict

They might not get discarded separately, but do they get recycled separately?
I always loosen caps when throwing them in the green bin so the bottles will compress more easily. Others might just throw them in separately or they might even pop off once compacted.
I don’t know how much of a problem having them separated might be (I’m just wondering out loud) but I could see how keeping things together and not having lots of small fiddly bits in mixed loads prior to sorting could be beneficial.
Sounds like it doesn’t take much contamination for recycling companies to redirect whole loads to landfill, so it it helps there it’s good I guess?

When I was about a year old I found a bottle of Tabasco and got the lid off. Wondering what was inside I peered into the bottle and shook it.

Or so I’m told. I have no memory of it but my parents had it burned into theirs.

I didn’t like it apparently.

Last mile at least, with equal access rules in the exchange

At the very least, nationalise the last mile.

A phone shop managed to palm one off on my FIL around the same time MS threw in the towel. He was using it until last Christmas when we got him a replacement due to it not having LTE and the 3g signal being switched off in the UK last month.
When I say he used it, I mean he could make and receive calls, and could read (but not send) texts. The lack of app support never bothered him because he never needed a smartphone in the first place. We got him a flip phone with physical keyboard and VoLTE. I had to use the WP a bit while dealing with the network to get a new 4g SIM and the UI, while alien, was surprisingly snappy for such an old device.

I’m aware of the community this is posted in, but my kid talks to her grandparents via the chat features in Google photos. Works over WiFi with specific contacts and no phone number required. It lets her show them pictures she’s drawn.
Google are involved of course, but there’s no algorithm pushing promoted posts or any of that BS

Don’t even have to pay for the base game (which is everything except the current expansion) now. The game is free for the first 20 levels (with social interaction restrictions) and with the rescaling at the end of the last expac meaning you can play those 20 levels in pretty much any part of the world (of warcraft).
The current xpac is a one off cost still, with the sub required to access the end game levels and remove all the social restrictions.
