I buy books and music by writing the author and asking them how to pay directly. This ofcourse only works with very small authors so I'm not buying much any more. Reading and watching movies I do from the local library.

I don't know anything about the guy but the church has been on the news a few times. Just looked up the wikipedia page [1] that has some info on the older stuff. [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Church_of_Jesu

Mostly because they are too young and don't know better. There was a lot of blood, sweat and tears spilled before we got to this stage.

I'm in Unionen as an IT worker, and all my coworkers too. Noone is discussing why we should not be.

But this was a timer on a normal phone. It's pretty useless to tell me it's less than one minute left until the eggs are done. Do I have time to do a bit more dishes or will the phone ring in one second? Who knows?

Sorry, can't sort it in a column. I'm totally uninterested in everything that ever happened the first of january. I want to see the mails from last night on top.

One benefit with Thunderbird. It's still saying the exact date and time (knock on wood). If it's today, it only says time, anything else you get full date and time.

Vertically aligned motherboards are hard to judge what "up" is. Usually up is where the expansion boards are plugged in. But not all computer users know how a computer looks inside.

It's also nice to read for us in SmallCo. We remember why we took that salary hit to stay sane.

I sort of did that at my first web-job. I thought it was a bit unhandy that the customers had to be mailed a link to the admin interface, why not just put a link to the login on the front page? A couple of days later I learned why. There&#x

I guess that is meaningful in a location with higher ambient temperatures. Here we just open up the computer a bit and aim a big table-fan at it for better cooling :-)

Eccept that is breach of contract with the booking service and can cost them the contract[1]. Since everyone is using booking.com or hotels.com, they will quickly shut down due to no customers. Hostage situation. [1] At least last time I lo
