I disagree with the transcript. He’s clearly bringing a bottle of wine to his new friends. That was my first impression and I’m sticking with it.

Tech Bros love naming their stuff after evil Tolkien shit. And they seem to do it totally unironically - as if they read the books but were confused about which side the good guys were.

Supermarket rapid chargers tend to be 50kW while the ones on motorways are jup to 400kW - 8 times as fast. Just something to know if thinking about long journeys.

I look at itt the other way. The EU’s cookie rules require websites to allow opt-out in no more than 2 clicks. I think they’re just trying to confuse and wear us down.

I will continue to 2-click my way through these things and not worry too much. If they wanted to break the rules then they can do it all anyway and ignore my clicked preferences.

What’s the difference between limited interest and consent? The latter is unticked by default.

Give Microtopia a look. It’s ant colony as a factory sim and it’s really quite good.

Sorry, I don’t understand. On kukuklok.com , press Manage Settings and then Save Settings. Avoid the Recommended button. Job done?

A lot of sites make it look difficult but you can often opt out of their ad and tracking cookies in 2 clicks. Usually there’s a “Save my choices” button that defaults to doing just this.

It’s not in their interest to make it clear.

It’s not the regulations, it’s the banks. They’re super paranoid, everything has to be proprietary. And at the same time their backends are all ancient and seriously decrepit. Which has to be kept secret and airgapped from the public.

It’s up to employers who they employ. It’s not for you or I to decide what job or what person are suitable.

But if your skilled enployees are switching to burger flipping because they can make the same money then you aren’t paying the new market rate.

A rising tide lifts all boats.

Can’t decide if to down vote you for “soccer” or updoot you for funny. Argh. Got a headache now.

Take this updoot and get out.

Tea is not the midday meal, it’s the evening meal. Usually the largest meal of the day on a work day evening.

Firefox. Ublock is pn tge mobile version and tge desktop version.

If it works then great. My first one was SUPER choosy about what pans would work and exactly where you had to put them. It was borderline unusable and almost put me off induction.

Cheap induction stoves can be AWFUL. If you’re having to use certain pans and position them accurately, you have a crappy one.

They are secret and covert in that their identity is hidden.

Buy stuff, unbox it, return it for a refund. Please only do this to big players like Amazon.

They pretend it’s cheap but it’s only cheap when it’s a tiny percentage of their sales - the reality is returns are costly for all businesses.
