Sorry. I can’t.

Manufactured or mined.

Asking them important questions.

Same people install white or cream carpets just before they decide to have kids or a party.

This.

Only about one in twenty of recorded ‘crime’ is ever solved. I don’t know whether that includes posting a tweet (aka non-crime hate incident). That’s recorded crime (if they’ll let you record a crime).

Same view as you: got turned away with that same phrase “civil matter, sir”.

I’m guessing that the real figure is maybe 1 in 100 at best. I’m sure I saw a pod cast of that undercover detective (Pete® B-something?) who was evicted from the Met who said the figure was in that ball park. Can’t find it or remember his name. Bah!

That last by-the-bye got me. I’ll bite.

Sounds like you’re having a tough time at the moment. There are some good communities here if you’re needing a virtual hug bigger than I can give.

Hopefully your throwaway line is just that you’ve had a fixable row with them and are cooling off somewhere else.

Best wishes this Christmas, one and all.

They’re no longer John’s, they’re porn stars. No shame necessary in this century, where OF exhibits consider themselves entrepreneurs.

This century is a fail if that’s really all we’ve collectively created: a machine to destroy young people; a place to watch the light in their eyes fade.

Just film it. Paying porn actors is not illegal usually, but take the camera away and …

I have used GNUCash for maybe a decade (sounds impossible to me) but it’s actually difficult to get much out of it for all the data one puts in. I’m in the XML data store I think, so maybe the SQL data implementation is better.

The graphs are ok and correctly setting up sub accounts as virtual envelopes within your normal account for your current account allows you to replicate the buckets/envelopes/spaces in, say, Starling bank (UK bank which sells its software to other banks as hussle).

I’m looking to set up something like Actual Budget (server) going forward.

AFAICT, they go around it via terminal staff.

This is great! Google seems to be slowly murdering Waze which I loved. Hoping that this will replace it!

Thank-you all.

Thank-you.

I’ve just installed Perplexity and reading about it replacing Google on https://www.theregister.com/2024/12/16/opinion_column_perplexity_vs_google/

Oh thank-you. As you have guessed, I haven’t done even basic investigation.

I’ll try to add it on as a search engine on Firefox to play with.

Thank-you again kind netizen.

Can you use the brave search engine from other browsers? (Is it a proxy for any other search engine?)

I’m expecting a negative, but a fella can dream.

Full disclosure: currently using StartPage and reasonably happy. StartPage is a proxy for Google as far as I can tell, although I’ve seen people say (on Reddit) it refers to Bing too.

Buy yourself a Mac, fella. You’re not ready.

You really won’t need one, but your username says you specialise in great suffering so you won’t want one.

This.

People still use Cron?

Use systemd timers which are very easy to configure.

You ever watch a UK TV series called Bread?
