Yellow Dog in early 2000s, and I think I switched to Debian PPC not long after. My memory of back then is quite hazy. A way while after that I had an Eee PC which I think I put Ubuntu on initially (the desktop was dog slow) and then changed over to LMDE. Have a feeling I had something else on it before Ubuntu… may have been the default Eee distribution, which I forget the name of (think it began with an X).

Had you been watching Wallace & Gromit?

I’m not sure I believe in past lives, but that sounds very much like the sort of thing which would be used as evidence for you remembering a past life.

I think you’ll find that’s the recommended spec, not the minimum requirements.

My work laptop always complains that it can’t shut down the “Shutting down” app when it tries to shut down.

Just as a point of interest, it doesn’t work properly in the Android version of Firefox. Use Chrome.

Guessing it’s the sales tax? Most countries will price things with tax included, not add it on afterwards.

To be fair I’d not heard of Malbolge so whatever.

I would have put Perl as lawful evil, Brainfuck as Chaotic Evil and maybe ASM should have been Neutral Evil

This looks intriguing (also every game should have a Nigel Mode). I’d definitely be up for a Switch version, I don’t get chance to play on anything else these days.

I had a survey from my local (Tory) MP. On it were “on a scale of zero to ten, how important are these national issues to you?” Alongside obviously important stuff like the NHS, was “Immigration”. I rated it Zero.

Nearly as expensive as printer ink.

I’m pretty sure that eliminating DEI is against EU law, so I’m not sure how they are supposed to conform (and, of course, they shouldn’t). Maybe sue the US government for breach of contract and move on.

The issue is more with embedded systems which have been hard coded to European DST.

Most sane software will use the OS timezone and not care about DST. Most sane embedded systems will have some config for DST. I bet there are lots of cranky unsupported things which are horribly broken though.

I believe this was the original EU plan. Scrap it, countries decide which timezone they want to stick with.

If you have a grill directly above the oven, put them in there whilst the oven is on. They’ll warm up nicely.

Yeah, little words aren’t supposed to be capitalised, but I’m never quite sure which ones to leave off so usually I just capitalise everything.

Here’s a massive list of the UK allocations: https://static.ofcom.org.uk/static/spectrum/fat.html

Hmm, if they’re making Cheddar in America it’s not really Cheddar.

But American cheese manufacturers adding food colouring makes sense. I don’t think there’s a single other country in the world where I’d believe that.

“Let’s make this already yellow cheese even more yellow by adding unnecessary food colouring. Let’s make it out of plastic whilst we’re here!”

Why is American food all processed to oblivion?
