Gee, I can’t imagine why they chose to drop this bomb today.

It’s like they wanted it to be drowned in other news.

My wife is definitely team ‘make it from scratch’.

She is also a very slow cook. We also have an infant that is currently taking up 110% of our time.

It’s hard for me to justify spending two hours a night preparing a lunch for the next day. She likes to sleep in, so I never get to eat it fresh… it’s always leftovers.

I don’t mind cooking something fresh for lunch or dinner, but I’ll do something that takes 20 minutes of prep and then take care of itself on the stove or in the oven. Chilli, pot roast, or a casserole.

I think frozen dinners probably have a better balance of protein/carbs/veg than either of us makes, and at half the price.

I’d go somewhere in-between to keep things dry.

Condensation around windows and outer walls make great growing grounds for mold. 15°C is the recommendation here.

Shit can happen. Boilers break. Leave your faucets dripping and run your circulation pump off of a battery and inverter to save your pipes.

In my country we have designated billboards where candidates get to put up their posters ahead of elections. Usually along roads, by malls, promenades, etc.

Messing with those is election interference. Believe it or not, straight to jail!

If the would-be murder was denied the purchase of a gun and then just decided to go get some MacDonald instead, then it’s not really attempted murder.

Conspiring or planning, perhaps. But even then you’d need to prove what he was intending to do with that gun.

I’ve never stood in like for early voting in the EU. I’ve done it at my supermarket while getting groceries.

Grab a ballot and envelope, enter booth, do the thing, walk to desk, flash id, get crossed off list, watch volunteer put your envelope in another envelope and drop it in the ballot box.

In-and-out, three minutes.

Come to think of it, voting on election day has always been just as smooth. I just have to go to the library or some school, so it’s not as convenient.

The theorem holds true. The theorem states that the monkey has infinite time, not just the lifetime of our universe.

That’s just lazy science to change the conditions to make sensational headlines. Bad scientists!

A lot of software did not run under windows NT4. Especially stuff that used the soundblaster directly.

Plug-n-play never worked, and drivers for hardware usually only came on floppy for DOS/win3/win95.

For some reason USB-drivers were not installed by default, either. That’s after swapping through 18 diskettes during installation. Just copy it all if you’re going to have me be a human jukebox.

I don’t use make-up, but I make an exception for the soap from the hardware store.

My routine goes a bit like this:

• get into shower
• turn on water
• get wet
• turn off water
• lather up
• turn on water
• rinse off
• turn off water
• rub dry with that same old towel

I do this as necessary, but at least before Christmas and midsummer (even if not necessary).

I don’t really watch Christian movies.

The last thing I saw him in was that home alone, but with a dog instead of a kid. “Alone for Christmas”. I can’t really recommend that, either.

Currently on a CMF phone 1.

Best phone is a tie between Nokia E70 or the HTC Dream. Suitable form factors and physical keyboards <3

I’m driving a 2007 which I guess I’ll move on from in a couple of years. I loathe the day when my only options are cars that get OTA updates.

Everything smart has shown their true colours about altering the deal. My TV didn’t use to have ads on the home screen. Now it’s 80% of it.

That’s harsh coming from a second-generation immigrant who keeps marrying immigrants.

I wanted to name my daughter Zelda. Mrs Pano vetoed it.

The Z makes it sound sexy. Also Moxy got shot down.

Hi Elaine!

The contributor above works at Baikal Electronics, which are a defense supplier in/for Russia, and therefore sanctioned.

The Linux Foundation is based in the US and have to bide by those sanctions.

I’ll keep that secret from her 😅

Three years ago, I bought my wife a laptop with Windows 10 to replace her 10yo windows 7 machine.

It had hardware issues out of the box, and went in on two repairs. It works fine now, AFAIK.

But, she still doesn’t trust it, and she doesn’t think that she can move her Adobe CS6 license over to it…

I even bought her the affinity suite.

I’m starting to think she’ll never move on from Windows 7.

I think the major browsers stopped supporting it sometime during the last year, so my best hope is that some included certificates will eventually make her favourite websites stop working. That has to force her over to something more recent… right?

I use arch, btw.

They sure do.

The point was that Orange Man and his followers were calling to stop the count when early votes and mail-in ballots were counted towards the end and made him lose swing states. He said something along the lines of “we were winning, and then they found these votes, and suddenly we were losing”.

For the occasions where you’re uncertain if it’s gigabytes or gibibytes.
