The translators did a heroic job. They even changed the names to make them funnier (Getafix is Panoramix in French). I do wonder what the Corsican’s name is in French given that boneywasawarroirwayayix is very English (language and culture) specific.
As a humble brag my Pa knew Anthea Bell’s brother - she was doing the English translations.
Just thinking aloud here…
Can you boot the install media when the laptop storage is installed?
If so, you can use gparted from the install media to clean the storage device and start from scratch. That might help.
You should be able to tell what mode to install the os in from the boot mode of the install media.
That is odd. However iirc it is an option in the bios.
Fwiw telling grub to uefi boot will not work if the boot device doesn’t have uefi support (and trying to boot in bios mode from a uefi disk fails as well… Been there got the T-shirt)
To get the install media to boot you could try removing the laptop storage…
On all the lenovos here hitting enter when the bios displays the Lenovo splash screen gives a menu that allows you to get at the bios or a boot menu.
You have to be a bit careful cos it’s on a countdown, paused and resumed by the enter key… And you have to get it timed right.
Pre 1850s, in most cases, you needed to have lots of offspring regardless of wanting them or not… Mortality was high.
Like all men, his wife tells him what to do … She is his handler after all and has been since he brought her to the US of A.
Excellent! Can’t wait to find out what one looks like…
No… Wait… :)
Not my problem… Whatever my SO/surviving descendants want is good by me.
In the UK there is a split between England and Wales and Scotland. “southern” UK trespass is a civil offence. Scotland it is criminal.
So in southern UK trespassers will most definitely not be prosecuted (the railway and power plant property are, iirc, the two exceptions because they have by-laws) but may be sued for damages, in Scotland they can be prosecuted.
One thing other answers have missed is that some ssds encrypt data before writing and obviously after reading (this prevents a swap the storage controller type attack) A secure erase on such a device consists of changing the read/write key. Takes milliseconds. Irrevocable (unless you find a way to read previous contents of the key storage)
If it was an SSD… Its possible you have an SSD that claims to be say 256Gb but actually has a 32Gb chip inside (or smaller) that lies about how big it is and just wraps the writes so they complete… However the format is broken, as is the drive.
Back in the day there was a cat-scan website… Lots of arguments about cruelty to cats because of the scanners bright lights. Lots of great scans of cats.
First off - not a retail employee.
Untidy carts in the corral, for some reason, annoy me. Even if it takes a few minutes to sort them, for size and straightness, I have to - much to the annoyance of people who are waiting for me to get back to the car.
I guess it’s irritation at the bad people who cba to be considerate to the cart collectors. Ffs you aren’t doing someone’s job, you are making their lives a bit less shit for 30s of effort.
Guys
Problem solved - nope, let’s be honest worked around.
You know that saying in Technology & Design “never update the software” with respect to CNC machines etc.?
well it seems if I install the latest and greatest from XYZ the printer is not recognised. If I keep the original versions everything works (whatever version of windows is installed). So now I have to work out a way of stopping the auto-update…
It’s a hay rake design by some guy called Barnsley… Arts & Crafts movement. Plain oak top, 7’x3’ ish, dovetail fit to oak hay rake frame which is wooden pinned together. The top has been abused over the years but being oak it just absorbs the abuse and turns it into character!
There is one in the same style in Cheltenham museum (UK) but mine is nicer. My cousin has its twin.
Not sure it counts but I have an oak dining table my grandfather bought back in 1910 or there abouts… So 113 years-ish. Still used every day.
Now that is something I wouldn’t have thought about.
Will try it and see - anything is worth a go!
Tried that - no difference.
Tried setting com port and baud rate in Cura environment for USB Printing NG plug in. No joy (though monitor in Cura stops complaining the printer is offline, it won’t do things like pre-heat the head)
Real head scratcher.
Nope - that’s the one thing I didn’t do (because 3D maker worked with out it)
Thanks for the reminder though - I will try that in the morning.
Err NATO-Restricted isn’t one of the highest security ratings. It’s one that’s sorta kinda a problem if it gets released rather than a “omg oh noes I am so dead if the leak gets traced to me” type problem.
It’s also actually a caveated protective marking. The NATO bit tells you that only NATO eyes can see the materiel which itself is marked Restricted.
The trouble is there are at least 3 classification/protective marking schemes that I know of and in one Restricted is used to describe materiel that is called Confidential (or is it Secret? It’s been a while) in another.
