veroxii,

I also started getting way more once I moved from chrome to Firefox.

veroxii,

Most people do.

veroxii,

I mean that’s the point. He’s clearly Don Putin in this configuration.

veroxii,

They exist here in Australia too. Which is a Commonwealth country with lots of English influenced heritage and culture.

veroxii,

Or when Netgear just randomly picked university of Wisconsin as the NTP server for all it’s cheap routers. pages.cs.wisc.edu/~plonka/netgear-sntp/

veroxii,

Always thought it was “back pussy”. Completely gender neutral.

veroxii,

As a hubspot user this is actually not surprising at all. In fact the only surprise is that they’re not requiring you to buy more Professional seats for the answer.

veroxii,

Sounds a bit like the topiary scene in The Shining. (Book version)

veroxii,

15 minutes? Those are rookie numbers. Gotta pump up those numbers.

veroxii,

Going to suggest some less mainstream ones.

Fisk - Australian comedy just released worldwide on Netflix

Rake - not quite a comedy but a drama with lots of funny and reeiculous moments. Also Australian also Netflix

Working moms - Canadian comedy… Maybe it’s more funny if you’ve had kids before but it’s pretty good and what we’re watching right now.

Rosehaven. More obscure so not sure how you’ll find it but Australian and very sweet comedy.

veroxii,

2 of the dead people were her parents-in-law. So her ex husband’s parents.

veroxii,

If a piece of hardware can’t run doom is it even hardware?

Are American tv shows stuck in Act 2 for their entire runtime between season 1 and final season?

Season 1s are great, setup, some payoff, a bit of lead into the overarching story. Then season 2 to X. The heroes win and then lose in the final episode, cliffhanger to next season. People get bored. Final season is announced and they wrap up the show.

veroxii,

Star trek is notorious for having bad first seasons.

veroxii,

Is it true that if you don’t use it, you lose it?

veroxii,

Nice hotels have a pillow menu.

veroxii,

Sure. Why not?

veroxii,

Pillow menu. Not towel menu. You can ask the hotel for a latex pillow or foam or soft or hard or duck feathers etc.

veroxii,

The cultural context for myself as a teenage boy was that Christina Applegate was in it.

veroxii,

Man I remember when KDE came out and us young naive kids thought “this is it… It’s virtually identical to win95/98… But without the bsod”

I feel old.

veroxii,

Also every single kid who grew up in a metric country intuitively knows how long 30cm is. That’s the length of a standard school ruler… in the pencil case of every child.

veroxii,

Totally. Kids are pretty much wearing 90s punk and grunge clothing. My 9 year old daughter will probably start raiding my wife’s cupboard of old clothes she kept from that era.

veroxii,

Maybe sometimes there are special circumstances?

veroxii,

Atilius was “banished” by the senate. I’m guessing banished to partake in someone else’s gladiatorial games.

By Jupiter’s cock!

veroxii,

Not who you asked but just switched too and haven’t noticed any difference with Gmail, YouTube, docs or sheets.

veroxii,

Enshittification and masturbation.

Where Do You Sit in the Movie Theater?

It seems everyone has a different sitting preference at the movies. I want the ultimate experience: the screen completely filling my vision, like I’m in the movie. Usually the third or fourth row. My wife complains we’re too close. Then I see people way in the back and it must be like watching TV the screen is so small. I...

veroxii,

Not who you replied to but this is awesome. My old man bladder thanks you. Installed.

veroxii,

It feels good to be home

veroxii,

I suspect they’re thinking about port forwarding. For another torrent to connect inbound to you, you need to have a port open for inbound connections and most VPNs don’t provide this as standard.

But you can still torrent if you don’t have ports… But you can only initiate outbound connections to other peers. And it works two way… Those peers you connected to can request data from you without problem.

However if there are too many peers without ports then it becomes a problem because no-one can successfully connect with each other.

veroxii,

Waves hand mysteriously… “Yes… This is the most dangerous weapon in the galaxy…”

veroxii,

Agreed. It’s like people forgot about Microsoft and IE. They also had drm options in the browser. Anyone remember Silverlight?

And how did that work out for them?

veroxii,

I remember running the 2 command line McAfee scan and clean commands. And it would tell you scanning for 15 known viruses or something lol. Then it became hundreds and eventually just changed into the tsr apps running in the background all the time.

Generally just booting from a clean disk with clean on it would make you the PC repair god.

veroxii,

Have you checked your carbon monoxide alarm? Maybe it was you?

veroxii,

How the Best and Hot algorithms work on Reddit is completely up to Reddit. They 100% tailor it to the user.

veroxii,

In Australia some local councils use aerial photos to check for structures and developments without a permit. Built a new deck without the right paperwork, put in a big shed without approval, expect a knock on the door soon.

veroxii,

Yay America. In Australia all competition winnings (even the lottery) is tax free.

veroxii,

Well… Not really that shocked.

veroxii,

Buy any kindle you prefer. Install calibre. Connect USB cable between kindle and computer.

Done.

Now download ebooks from anywhere, import into calibre and sync to your Kindle.

I have the paper white touch screen one.

What is your machine naming scheme?

I’ve ended up with a number of machines on my network, and a need to name them all in a somewhat logical way. For several years I had them named after the planets, which worked well until the PCs for myself, my girlfriend, servers and Raspberry Pi’s quickly summed up to more than the eight planets. I’ve broadened it...

veroxii,

Star Trek ships at home. And Game of Thrones characters at work.

veroxii,

Well it’s harder for them because they are kids and their brains are still developing. You’ve had a lifetime of experiences to draw from where you use math concepts subconsciously many times a day.

veroxii,

Wow. What a time to be alive!
