I was reminded of the early days of Twitter and the FailWhale! But I don't think they ever went down for two days? But certainly Twitter were notorious for regular outages!

I've been responsible for large 7 figure budgets in Australia. And I have anecdotal data that showed that we reduced spend, and business kept on keeping on! Some key points though: * It can be hard to understand the reason for your gro

Can you order it from an online Australian pharmacy? Or know someone here who can ship some over to you? They ID you in Oz, but it's fairly easy to get. Pharmacists know the PE stuff is junk! I've also found Ritalin works as a dec

Upvote for Tailscale. I find it super useful! Even if just for remoting into various boxes; the kids for instance often tether their PCs off their phones or I'm tethered and want to remote to my LAN. (I have terrible internet)

I've thought about getting one or two... I can see the appeal. But I have come to the sensible conclusion that an Intel NUC is far more useful, to me, as a general purpose computing device, media server, file server, linux dev box and

Miller Columns for GUI file navigation! OSX has them, and is one of the workflow reasons I prefer OSX. Windows doesn't have column views, and the 3rd party file explorers options are not to my taste! I wish Gnome would add them! I&#x27

This is correct IIRC. I got in early when it was 1GB! As you say, at the time over free email was only in the single or 10s of MBs. Or you had your work email! OMG to think I used to use Work email for personal emailing! GMAIL also came out

I've worked with and for brands with multi million dollar budgets. My general advice, which I borrwed from somewhere... Advertising is like an Aircraft. You power up, use a lot fuel(budget) and you get airborn! Then you cut the engines
