   My Mondeo is the first car I've ever had that doesn't have numbered radio buttons. My usual flow of listening to Radio 4 until The Archers comes on then switching to Radio 3 in one press was ruined.

   I build and maintain some libraries that are used by teams working on GOV.UK projects in Rails. Have been inundated with offers since their release, and they've gone on to be used in some fairly high profile things. https://

   I'm all in on IKEA smart home stuff. I don't do anything too advanced, but having my lamps on timers and being able to turn everything off with one button press is amazing. It integrates perfectly with Sonos too, so I wake to the

   I switched from zsh to fish a couple of years ago. My setups are very similar in capability but my fish config is about 10% the size. I get nearly everything I want for free and now only use one plugin, fzf.fish

   If your TV supports CEC you'll be able to control your Raspberry Pi with your TV remote. It works perfectly with OpenELEC, I suspect other platforms are fine too.

    I've also been using git since around that time but had no problem _switching_ in 2019 because I'd also spent many years using svn. Choice is good, switch just fits my brain better.

    git has had `switch` and `restore` for years now, they provide a more sensible interface than having `checkout` do so much.

    I can't really see how they won't. Microsoft were forced to rename SkyDrive to OneDrive by BSkyB, a company with less in common with them than Meta/Threads Software Ltd.

    Microsoft is a HBO distribution partner. If you can point to some evidence suggesting globalstore.uk were I'll accept it might not have been a scam. Good luck.

    This is incredibly US-centric, the line between manufacturer and carrier is much clearer just about everywhere else in the world.

    Scammed them by downloading an illegal copy of a TV series? It was House of the Dragon, I'm certain HBO don't offer any official downloads from third parties. Plus, the listing showed photos of DVD covers and make it look like I w

    Out of interest, where doesn't ctrl-l work? I only use Linux these days and readline's ubiquity means it's pretty much everywhere I go.
