It seems there was a lot of history going in to this, and it must have built up over some time to get to that point. But yes, you're completely correct it doesn't read well (at all) to someone coming in with no context (ie likely

Thanks very much.

Just closing the issue with no further comment on such an important allegation is not good though. I know my wife recently installed Audacity; I'm going to scramble to figure out what the state of this is now. Thanks Antisol for bringi

Loved your write up of your amazing experience, what a great post. Typed in game listings, I remember those well! There were magazines devoted to these for the Vic 20 / C64, with pages and pages of source code to type in. (We were abso

Hmmmm, I use WSL2/Ubuntu and I always navigate to my folder in Terminal and type `code .` from there - works perfectly. Really love this integration.

Or Win10 with WSL2, however I guess that can be covered as *nix . I'll agree and further add that learning about the shell is essential knowledge building, just as touch typing is an essential skill to have, yet it's surprising ho

Two cars crashing because one driver didn't care to stop for a red light is not an accident. It's a result of negligence, impairment of intellectual functioning, or a number of things other than an accident . The word crash cov

All good, thanks - and I could definitely have been more detailed in why and how I referenced it.

Nice info, P and GP! I built a RC buggy car with lipo batteries; it's amazing how quickly it goes, and how well we've suspension etc works. Sadly most of the time was spent on the build, too hard to get to the local track with fam

Even if you don't feel like it, drag yourself in and do a couple of things. Chances are once you get going you'll do a bit more, but regardless it all adds up. This works amazingly well with a home weightlifting gym. Even 15 minut

You've got to start somewhere, right? Kudos to the developers of this.

For the down-voters, I was pointing to the anti patterns employed by the developers to make it just about impossible at first sight to exit. You can't right click the task bar, there's no option on the file menu to exit. You actua

Yes, I did, and it stated piracy didn't impact computer games sales - mainly new/ big movie releases. The context of _this thread_ is computer games. That's why I posted it.

Samsung's Internet browser has a neat "make this viewer friendly" function in the URL bar that worked a charm here.

Your part about generating real interest in EVs is exactly what I had in mind when I wrote my reply. I have been following EVs for a couple of decades now; the way especially the Tesla Model S was launched was a breakthrough in shaping the

Pretty much thanks to Tesla. Electric cars wouldn't be anywhere near where they are today without him - whatever we may think of his personality, the advancements in tech and environmental impacts for generations to come are real.

"Fat man on freakishly heavy bicycle" => lol, thanks, I'm saving this for next time I hear "pay your reggo". (I _am_ paying on my ICEV, which I'm going to get carbon offsets for soon).

In Australia, roads are paid for by our taxes - not the fuel excise. I think I actually support a KM usage tax, but it'd have to be for all kinds of cars - not just the green kind. CO2/PM25 emissions tax should be on top of that.

It's a newly introduced km fee on all road usage for EVs only, not for ICEVs, in Victoria. https://www.caradvice.com.au/955801/victorias-ev-user-tax-is... . https://www.whichcar.com.au/car-news&#x2F

I found it interesting to follow the thought process, and enjoyed the read myself. It struck me that energy costs (which involves location etc) weren't included, but perhaps that's in the final service?

Not sure why you're getting down voted, that's how it works in Australia. Just look at how we're still embracing coal, and introducing mileage tax of EVs to repel their takeup. There's a big network of old chummies and p

Agree 100% (he!). The utilisation really needs to show busy as in % of presently available resources, and displaying what those are is a completely different concern. For Windows, if anything I'd love to see an additional metric, where
