Do you know where I can buy a 2 mile extension cable to get to my nearest plug socket this morning?

I used rhythmbox on a system running Mint to move music to and from an iPod nano 2. It was fairly straight forward. Save the transfers before closing the programme and you’re good to go.

Enough with your psyop, Bill. Go back to trying to cure malaria to atone for your past sins.

The difference in usage that badboy would get during a football game versus a gig at the same stadium would be enormous. Things like flush cycle frequency and when to turn the system on/off to conserve water. Nothing massively sinister - boring facility management stuff mostly.

I remember that now you mention it. Bartering with a super power seemed crazy to me back then. It’s amazing how little seems to have genuinely improved for Russians (specifically) since the fall of the USSR - we had high hopes of a new age but… gestures broadly at the current state of Europe and shakes head.

The fact that both me and you are questioning whether this is satire or not worries me greatly.

Me too. Nice to see the passion of the construction industry ( and the weekend warriors too)

People (try to) use a drill driver as opposed to an impact driver? Wow. I now understand why they could have a grim experience… thanks.

I’ve driven tens of thousands of pozidrive 2/3 screws into timber with an impact driver. For whatever reason my experience is the diametric opposite of yours. Big up the Pozidrive massive.

I was thinking of some (gentle) lazy flaming or trolling but your mention of instigating international conflict has inspired me to better myself and aim higher in life. Thank you.

I’d like to apologise now for when, in the future, I place a “parody” sticker on a genuine social media post. I know, there’s something wrong with me… but I thought I’d give you a heads-up about it as you seem pretty reasonable.

I pretty much agree with all of that but wanted to add that when BlackBerry BB10 was discontinued (miss you, Z30) I had the option of Microsoft, Google or Apple. I chose the least bad of a poor bunch… The original monopolists or an ad-obsessed stalker were of no interest to me.

Just had to check I wasn’t miraculously back on Apollo trawling the Snoo site. Thanks for the laugh…

Good. I’m glad. I had my suspicions that was the case but it’s nice to have it confirmed by an insider. I always struggled to believe that an entire nation of so many millions of people would have a one size fits all pro/anti stance on any one topic; it’d be absurd.

Are you familiar with sarcasm / irony / satire? I’m quoting and subsequently mangling a slogan from 1985. (c. Forty years ago) Surely you haven’t taken that comment at face value?

Pepsi - the choice of a new generation… of woke, pronoun-shifting libtards. As an aside I like your spelling. It’s reminded me to listen to Ice Cube’s Amerikkka’s Most Wanted again.

It’s a well known internet phenomena that’s actually called the “The Scunthorpe Problem”. Wikipedia has an article about it. Scunny isn’t the only town that suffers. On a side note the Spanish name Enrique can be shortened to the sounds “key-kay” which would be spelled “Kike” which is the spelling of an ethnic slur in English. I believe Sony deleted/banned some ps accounts because of this.

Yeah - in non US places gun ownership only means one thing: you own a gun. It says nothing about your politics. And yes, US democrats being referred to as “left” is ridiculous. The Democrat party wouldn’t even be a centrist party in most (western) democracies.

Damn. I didn’t know they still manufactured the 95% electrons stuff. Probably left over stock that they sell at discounted prices.

It kind of depends on the “quality” of the electricity that runs your domestic property. In the UK there is some serious juice coming through the socket and the kettles there go hard and fast.
