I believe Trump/Stormy Daniels.

I didn’t realise it was possible to hate every side of an argument this strongly.

It was a few years back, but after it hit ChromeOS EOL I’m pretty sure it just got some KDE distro; I don’t think I even used LXDE. Didn’t need to do much.

I was mostly using it for web browsing, forums, spreadsheets, documentation etc. Nothing particularly strenuous.

I did have one really fun time of modifying PDF engineering drawings by opening them in Libre Office Draw which it handled kinda OK.

It did get a 240GB SSD but everything else was soldered.

I got a surprising amount of use out of a similarly configured C720 as a general purpose portable machine.

Have you never heard the phrase “died peacefully in his sleep” or “at least it was quick”?

Musk coveted Twitter, and we all know how well that went…

I’ll take ‘Violations of the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act’.

Ehh. Plenty of places you can go buy land and try, but you need a decent population mass (i.e. commune) to actually be somewhat self sufficient. Without money, you’re not going to be buying any tools, construction materials or any other supplies.

Medical treatment also ends up being questionable - if you’re in the US, you probably get nothing unless you’re about to die. If you’re elsewhere, other people’s taxes pay for it…

Waze is of course owned by Google…

The ‘door’ that blew out wasn’t an emergency exit: it was a plug that filled the hole where an emergency exit would go, if they put more seats in the plane and needed more exits.

From the inside of the plane, it looks like any other row except the window spacing is a bit off. Not an exit row.

Various articles and forum posts suggest that using the emergency/manual releases can crack the windows. It looks like the door can’t/shouldn’t be opened with the window fully raised, and part of the normal door opening process is for the car to lower the windows a few millimetres.

Well that’s not good. There was a recent software update which does electrically pull down the windows incase someone manually releases the door so hopefully that issue is no longer. Unless the window Reg doesn’t get power which can be caused by a lot of trivial things (like the puddle lamp burning out)

Blackadder: Would that be the plan to continue with total slaughter until everyone’s dead except for Field Marshall Haig, Lady Haig and their tortoise, Alan?

It’s pretty common to own a domain but not actually host the email server; doing on-premises email is a security PITA and most providers simply blacklist large swathes of residential and leasable (e.g. VPS) IPs.

Unfortunately, if you get someone else to host your email, they often charge by the account, not by the domain. Setting up a new mailbox is therefore irritatingly expensive.

A catch-all email works well, though, and is free from most of the hosting providers. Downside is you get spam…

Jane@JaneDoe certainly seems more common than mail@JaneDoe.

Ah! Doublethink!

I’ve certainly never heard of a chicken ranch, but plenty of chicken farms.

South Australia had a blackout a few years back because the grid standards were lax on how they should be configured, so the manufacturers had set the defaults overly conservatively.

It’s a learning moment but should be a solved problem.

Any grid stability issues can also be resolved by constructing more synchronous condensers.

Rail at 100mph - it’s in the comment.

Has been a thing since before WW2 by the looks of it.

With software that misuses /tmp, I’m more worried about burning out my SSD endurance than running out of RAM.

Only 15mL and into a syringe, right?
