Perhaps to test this, you could have two sets of identical statues. Two dolphins need to interact with the matching statues together to get food. If you followed the 'five monkeys and a ladder with a banana' experiment and found t

Can confirm. Have the Precision 5510. With the 4.4 kernel, it more or less works fine. Last I checked, I was getting ~5hrs on battery. Which is pretty shit-hot for a linux laptop. One gripe so far: Since I updated the BIOS, the entire thing

So thats what LTSE is. Saw it in the compatibility table for the TB15 thunderbolt dock. Which, I really can't tell if it'll work or not. Really need to plug a 4k monitor into it.

The best explanation for the super rich I've had is something along the lines of: (Hoping my numbers are right) If you make $30,000 a year, an xbox costs 1% of your income, and a loaf of bread costs 0.001% of your income. For the super

I bought the new Dell Precision 5510 (Business version of the new XPS 15) this week. With a 4.4 kernel, Everything seems to work more-or-less fine. There's one or two issues with the graphics stack (HiDPI display, Nvidia Card), but the

It might have changed in the last 5 years, but I found #5 a point of contention. I found it incredibly hard to find a new job opening when I wanted one, let alone get hired for them. Flew to London and have had jobs thrown at me nearly ever

We should also ban alleyways, as criminals can hide in them too. Also noisy pubs and bars, because they provide an excellent environment for criminals to converse without people overhearing them. And possibly the postal service, because cri

A part of me hopes (read: dreams) that the keyboard/gpu is all interfaced to-spec as Thunderbolt 3.1 (spec supports bidi power, and external GPUs). And that the TB3.1 spec is "bullshit free" (unlike DisplayLink).

I don't pay for Prime. Ether I or my wife buy something once a month 'next-day'. Amazon fail to deliver it, we complain to customer service, and demand a free month of Prime. Rinse/repeat.

What I don't understand, is why I can't pick my delivery slot for free. Everybody has jobs. Everybody finds it annoying to buy something on line. You never know when it's going to turn up. You have to take a day off, and hope

I've got a suspicion that Amazon has been trialling/building this in the UK since their purchase of Yodel, perhaps earlier. A number of times some bloke in a car has turned up and delivered me a package. No uniform, no branding. J

I don't put locks on my luggage either. Instead I put an easily breakable cable tie on the zips as a tamper evident seal. The one time I've had a bag come back with it missing has been the time the TSA decided to inspect my bags.

Yep. I live in the UK, have a Prime subscription, yet I'm probably just going to get it off the Pirate Bay because their software is such an ass to use.

Hah, yeah. I was wondering where it was, thought it could be NZ, but Ireland and Scotland look pretty similar. It was the Tui that confirmed my suspicions.

If it's anything like London, the price of the black cab is regulated. So, even if there is hailing via an app (Which afaik exists for some black cabs), you're still paying the regulated and more expensive fare.
