I had The Print Shop Deluxe and remember thinking it was the future, and that we woull all be making our own holiday cards, signs, etc. in no time. Every holiday, I'm amazed that everyone I know (including me) is now…
One thing that has been (and continues to be) an incredible resource in understanding classical music is the radio show Exploring Music: https://www.wfmt.com/programs/exploring-music/ It took me a while to be able to…
You can use more than one filter. I've heard it called a Corsi box: https://www.texairfilters.com/a-variation-on-the-box-fan-wit... Basically, you're making a cube. One side is the box fan, with the intake coming from…
I've heard the Scots version of Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone is really well done, and is fun to read even as an American. That said, I have no experience at all with Scots, so my opinion should have very…
Don't forget that a lot of us have weights or other exercise setups at home now. I would definitely try something as an alternative to powdered chalk to keep my palms from getting slippery on my equipment. Especially…
Just so you don't have the wrong idea, Osterholm's suggestion is that everyone who has already been given the first dose already should get the second dose as planned. Only for new vaccinations should we apply the new…
I use DDG for all searches, and do occasionally go to the second page of results (and sometimes even the third). When I do, I either find what I was looking for there or figure out what I might want to change or exclude…
It was on PIA, when I used them (stopped when I heard about the sale to Kape), so I'd assume it still is. Mullvad also does this. Here's their server status page, so you can see your options:…
Yeah, being able to run uBlock Origin is one of the main reasons I don't want apps opening links in anything but my main Firefox install.
If you go into Gmail's General Settings screen, you can uncheck "Open web links in Gmail". All the links I open in Gmail open directly in Firefox for me after doing that. If I leave that box checked, it does use a web…
Oh, cool. It's the same in Greek: πορτοκάλι = Portokali = Orange Πορτογαλία = Portogalia = Portugal
It seems like a joke, but the amounts make sense. It can't be so expensive that all of the inspectors' combined bribes become too expensive for the least able institution to afford. You don't want the bribes to be such…
Same thing in Soviet Russia. I am reading The Gulag Archipelago, and in it, Solzhenitsyn says about the mindset of one who is facing unjust arrest by the authorities: "...But as for you, you are obviously innocent! You…
I use a VPN whenever I'm not at work, so I know how frustrating it is to be told I didn't pick all the images with a street sign or whatever ridiculous hoop I have to jump through. Especially when I'm only casually…
Here you go: Intel Management Engine is a proprietary technology that consists of a microcontroller integrated into the Platform Controller Hub (PCH) microchip with a set of built-in peripherals. The PCH carries almost…
Krokodil is essentially just a shitty home recipe for turning codeine into desomorphine. If one did it properly, and filtered out impurities and solvents, the desomorphine would be fine to use/sell in stores. It's not…
