  • 'Light rail' is yet another term for tram

  • (because they were just a bronze age tribe in Palestine making up stories about take history in faraway places to big themselves up among the other tribes)

  • Thanks now I have the image of a cheap plastic Charlie fountain, oversized head in the booth with the banner in front in my head

  • We just got seatbelt/phone use cameras in Canberra, Australia. We've had stopped cameras for more than 20 years, most now average your speed over several kilometres (on one highway for a couple of hundred kilometres) and disincentive speeding effectively

  • You quite like the letter o, I take it, but what have you got against the word shine?

  • Waiting in windows explorer in a shared directory for write access to a document, with "notify" set. It says filename.doc is available, double click it. "Sorry psud, this file is being used by psud. Open read only or notify when this file is free?"

    Because of course explorer opens the file read/write to show the preview

  • Just normally closing any file browser windows usually releases the drive. Windows is usually locking it in an explorer window for "I was in that drive an hour ago, I need it in case my human wants to go back" at least when Linux says no all you need to do is cd out of the drive, and navigate to any other folder in a file browser and then it'll work

  • That's not theft. We only see it as theft because the cat does it sneakily, but it only sneaks because if it didn't the fajita might have escaped, as cats assume all food other than wet food and kibble is like mice

  • Technology Connections in his recent video (or was it on his second channel?) points or that since dishwashers had only six functions, all of which run when given line voltage, and case running when depowered, anyone with Arduino and some relays could make a new control board for a dishwasher pretty easily, to make programs that way better. Laundry machines are similar but simpler, if they ever get that bad, they'll be easy to lobotomise

  • Too many people identified the monitor as the source of their frustration, when really it was the box on which it sat that was to blame

  • I looked for some troubleshooting for my podcast player, and was really mistrustful of the AI summary, but it was right. But of course the solution was pulled from a forum, so could easily have been from a different product, or an outdated version. The last thing I looked for gave a well out dated answer for fingerprint readers under Linux

  • Most Linux malware is aimed at servers, that's where the money is, and where Linux has serious market share

  • The no holds barred way of getting root on otherwise secure systems

  • Since it has malware abbreviated in its name I think it's a joke

  • To another version full of errors due to the same faults? This is the sort of thing that has people looking for alternatives

  • I haven't had teams crash, just behaving badly, not marking chats read, not moving updated chats to the top.

  • It's incredible how quick they become when converted to Linux (though I always put light weight Linuxes on old machines, and that may have contributed)

  • The version of windows 10 my Lenovo laptop can't see wifi. I don't like factory resetting that machine (actually I can't anymore since I wiped the recovery partition when I moved it to Linux) my framework laptop came with no OS so was immune to bad factory OS version problems
