Or, at least, that would last a thousand years.

Same here. Whether I start the day with a strong mug of coffee, six litres of olive oil, two cartons on concentrated prune juice, or just a simple handful of laxatives pills, the result is always the same.

It seems crazy that a company that’s only really known for cars, motorbikes, tuning forks, heat pumps, brake pads, pens, tractors, fertilizer, display panels, outboard motors, pneumatic systems, oil tankers, furniture, locomotives, bricks, solar panels, ATVs, generators, hot air balloons, dinghies, hydrogen fuel cells, submarines, crop dusters, jet engines, cultivators, hedge trimmers, lawnmowers, precision optics and robots would suddenly pivot to rockets.

For giggles, I’d like you to explain how the President of the United States launching his old overpriced phone on his own overpriced network with every possible element named, adorned and even priced after himself could be considered anything other than abusing their power?

Same in the UK. We have an annual MOT tests and even with that some drivers let their cars slide so much.

Done and done.

Right. They’re hairy and secrete milk. So, mammal.

I assume it’s because of “hot pink” which now I type it sounds like a euphanism.

Did they forget the “to”?

I can also explain Microsoft’s straglehold on enterprise/government/institutional IT in two words: Group Policy. Nothing - absolutely nothing - from any other OS maker comes close to the granular level of configurability, customisation and flexibility that comes with Group Policy, not even ChromeOS or iOS.

"That’s great! I’d love to help you discover the exciting world of programming! The best language for a starter is probably HTML, which stands for Hypertext Text Machine Learning Code 5. You can write HTML in an environment which is a kind of software. The best environments for creating HTML are:

• VSCode
• Visual Studio Code
• Code
• HTML
• Eclipse
• Visual FoxPro
• Visual Basic
• Visual C+++
• Borland Turbo
• Pascal
• Vienna
• Innsbruck
• Salzburg

Remember to install your favourite using one or more supported environments. Begin with something basic and work up from there. You’ll be in no time. Have fun! Or should I say, Have Fun!"

Modern birds are more closely related to tyrannosaurus rex than tyrannosaurus rex was to stegosaurus. Modern birds are, by any reasonable definition, dinosaurs and sometimes they act like it.

Clever girl.

Sarcastically Shaking My Many Hydra Heads.

Ugh. I pity people who have such a lack of self-respect that that can tolerate living in this kind of dump. If the bed was rotated ninety degrees, they could watch TV lying on their side. But I guess whoever lives here is happy to just settle for imperfection.

I used to have an iMac that I loved (screen was excellent) but it quickly became a shitbox (because Apple) so I turned it into a X Server for my far more powerful Linux box. Is there a modern equivalent of that? Basically turn it into a thin client?

Edit: for kiosks, Windows 10 can be quite happy on 1GB RAM, but that 16GB storage is a problem.

If the cable coming through the wall is coaxial like the pictire OP posted, that’s exactly what’s happening. New installs will be FTTP and a lot of networks have been upgraded, but there’s still plenty of areas using DOCSIS over coax.

UK here. It’s just not a thing any more. I regularly drive - or am a passenger - on a ~200 mile round trip and insect strikes just don’t happen.

That said, I recently drove from the North of England to the South of France. Almost as soon as we crossed the Channel we were instantly getting insects splattered on the windscreen to the point we had to refill buy some bright pink no-nonsense washer fluid at the next services. So I assume some counties are more responsible than others with their use of pesticides.
