And then you want the owner to pedal this to an RV dump station? That’s simply not happening. Best case, they park it near a rainwater sewer drain and literally dump their shitpile in the road.

Unfortunately, that’s going to be the main reason that vehicles like this won’t be allowed to catch on. If you’ll pardon the pun, there are shitty people on both sides of this - people who don’t want to be reminded of ‘the poors’, and people who will dump literal shit outside other people’s homes. Both of those groups help to stop us from having nice things :(

You’re being downvoted, but you’re right. Every adapter I’ve bought for a full sized hard drive has needed its own power supply. I’m not sure if I’ve seen one for a PATA drive that didn’t come with one.

I have nothing to add but Cartman

(((>.<)))

That’s the one, thank you :)

There’s a 30 day Linux course on here somewhere, and it repeats every month. I’m drawing a blank on the name, so can’t search for it, but it’s about setting up a Linux server and going through the commands etc.

It looks very helpful, and is definitely worth looking in to :)

Minecraft, if I’ve got a project to do.

I run a local server so that I can play with my kid, but I’m the one who has to actually get things done. Simple things like looking for diamonds is enough to keep me playing for hours. I’ll find a vein, and I think that’s not enough, I need to find more, so I’ll find half a dozen more veins, but then my brain switches to the ‘I may as well carry on’ mindset.

I mined a mountain down to ground level recently because the top was spoiling the view from our village, and once I started, it was quite soothing.

I commented on the last post about this, the three stars are difficult to make out on a small screen, they look like a blurry capital A. On top of that, it’s apparently used in astronomy to represent clusters of stars, like a constellation.

The whole point of this campaign appears to be to replace a unique symbol with one that’s already in use and is hard to read at small sizes 🤷🏻‍♂️

From the two photos you’ve posted, it looks like there’s a little bit of the grooves left in the top of the screw, but not enough for your screwdriver to grip.

Try the rubber band trick first, mainly because it doesn’t cost you anything other than a rubber band to try. The combination of the little bits of the grooves and the grip from the band might do it.

If it doesn’t, a sacrificial screwdriver might work. You basically need to file off the pointy tip of the screwdriver until it can reach what’s left of the grooves, and unscrew it with a bit of downward pressure.

Good luck 👍

I suffer from heartburn and acid reflux, so this could be very helpful, thank you :)

Gatorade tea would certainly be interesting. I don’t know if it would be good interesting or bad interesting though…

Either way, I just found the thread:

I read on here somewhere recently that a pinch of salt in a cup of over brewed tea takes away the bitter taste, and I’m sure the reason given was something to do with the acidity of the tea being lowered.

I might be completely wrong, but it might be worth trying with a small cup 🤷🏻‍♂️

86% of Mozilla’s revenue came from the agreement keeping Google as Firefox’s default search engine

That explains a lot. I’ve only recently switched back to Firefox after Chrome took the throne years ago. I still use Google’s services for now, so wanted their home page as my new tab page.

The only way I could find to do that was by using an extension, but every so often I get a warning from FF that my new tab page has been changed, and it gets reset. I looked up a way to stop the warnings, and found a Mozilla blog post with comments from staff claiming that it’s a security feature.

Apparently the only reason that you might not want to start with the FF start page is because you’ve been hacked 🙄

I had the same problem. Luckily for me I found out before they went past the 30 day?* window, so I was able to renew and then transfer them away.

*I can’t remember the exact length of the window, but I think that’s right.

Still, don’t they require ID and phone number and shit these days ?

I’ve got no idea. I haven’t had to do either, but I’ve had my account for years, and pretty much only use it to keep track of birthdays.

I’ve used marketplace a few times for buying and haven’t had to add any extra info, it just connects me with the seller through Messenger. I’m in the UK if that makes any difference.

I don’t know, if Suicide Squad is as bad as people say, I might be better off missing out! 😁

Would a virtual machine work for this? Set up a minimal Linux distro with a browser and set the browser to delete cookies on exit, then only use it for Facebook. VMs are not perfectly secure, as I understand it, but I can’t see Facebook tunnelling its way out of one.

Yeah, possibly. It’s a bit annoying if that is the case, but I’m not overly bothered about the games, so I’m sure I’ll get over it 😁

Did you manage to get these? I’m in the UK too, but they didn’t show up for me.

That’s a really good idea, thanks for the link :)
