Very short version: one autistic US teenager wrote a massive majority of the Scots Wikipedia by copying the English Wikipedia, doing find-and-replace for a limited collection of words and rewriting the rest in a…
Guiness Zero is my go to for a sipping beer when I'm actually in a pub. I like a pine needles and lemon IPA when it's very cold but they get a bit much when you're having a few over a long evening.
No, you're poisoning any research into an endangered language. Do we have to remind everyone of the Scots Wikipedia fiasco?
This was the stated intention with Samsung DeX - and it almost works but there are just enough pain points in day-to-day use to make it unviable for me, and a thin&light laptop is almost always the better solution, and…
Yup, sitting here on a work-issued laptop that's locked down tighter than a walnut - I couldn't install chrome if I wanted to, and yet every time I have to actually go to google for something I get the "would you like…
Pls use an image host that I can view without having to turn on my VPN - signed, a brit.
The BBC's "impartiality" is frequently it's biggest downfall - It's a very standard UK joke that if the BBC was discussing if the earth was flat you'd get a 5 minute interview with a top geographer or physicist from…
Same's true in the UK, but honestly they're some of the best drivers out there 'cause they've been hustling in farm equipment since they were tall enough to reach the pedals. I've seen farmers get picked up from my old…
But there was a place in which to do nothing - whether it was a scrappy patch of land that's now a big-box store, or a permissive neighbour's garden who has now put up a fort knox of ring cameras, or a mall that used to…

They're basically bank receptionists for old people who will type details into the same system that the general public has access to. They also handle cash for small businesses (I worked in a cafe during university and…
There's a noticeable increase in sleep disorders and related conditions in the far west of the single time zone [0]. I think when it's on the order of a single hour's shift for daylight savings the effects are pretty…
The Red Bull branding almost goes without saying at this point.
There's something about the connection between people you get with physical media as well, beyond just the "playing it for other people" effect in the article. - I have a collection of a few hundred records I've mostly…
I can believe either of these explanations. This employee also seems to be an outlier in terms of amount of shit they have to deal with. I worked at an FC for a month and a half while waiting to start a graduate job,…
Unless something's changed since I bought my big maglite, the outer ring only controls the beam pattern, and the button just gives you on and off. Things might have got fancier in the meanwhile, but mine still does what…
There's an excellent book called "Flight Sim X For Pilots" that's essentially just a walkthrough of flight school, starting in a piper cub and gradually progressing through to instruments flying and multiengine flying.…
From the article: "If we ended up sending only a small number of messages through one provider over the long run, they might not be massively incentivised to be a provider in the future." Gotta keep the service provider…
