This reminds me of people who used Computer Modern to make it look like they had written their paper using LaTeX to get better marks. It usually worked

Macintosh Pus actually. At least I hope it’s a Plus. If they gutted a 128k or 512k that would be sad.

If you are a big company there are often ESCROW agreements for things like this. I have encountered the “data dumps” from time to time and whilst it’s “better” it’s not ideal. Half finished documentarian, virtual machines of mis-configured OS installs… it’s almost as if it was just a straight copy of the development environment as it was just as they made the final version of the software…

But it’s better than nothing.

Main issue I can see with this forcing open source would be libraries and frameworks licensed from others who would likely still be in business and wouldn’t agree to those parts becoming open sourced. See also WinAMP https://www.theregister.com/2024/10/16/opensourcing_of_winamp_goes_badly/

Phoenix Wright?

I would have suggested Farnell but apparently they got bought out by an American company in 2016.

Garmin watches come close?

These really annoy me. I used to spend a lot of time in Sweden so I tried pretty hard to get an account set up to let me pay by swish. I gave up. If you’re not a resident you can’t get a person number so you can’t get a bank ID so you can’t use swish.

What is frustrating is that lots of places I went required swish and wouldn’t take cash or card, so I ended up having to get other people to pay for me.

I bet many other systems in other countries are similar

Kinda surprising nobody thought to make a lightgun version of xkill. At least, a few minutes of searching and I can’t find anything

My hair is thick and waist length. In the summer months I have to have it tied up somehow or I overheat, much to the annoyance of people in my life who like to see it down 😅

I’ve considered trying natural lightening techniques (some people say lemon juice, others in my family with similar hair say it works) to lighten it to reduce the heat. Maybe this year I’ll give it a go.

One other thing I’ll say is that if you’re already hot, adding volume makes it worse as it traps warm air

At this point I think that’s probably a feature

Yeah I take the tips off and only clean those bits. On my earbuds they have a pretty good mesh filter which stops wax etc. getting further into them

I use an ultrasonic cleaner with warm soapy water. Works wonders - they basically look new!

Penzance to London is a similar experience, but with older trains.

I think a lot of the people who were working on the Airports now work for Ubiquiti

Technically two?

Victoria, Circle, District, Hammersmith and City, Metropolitan and the new Piccadilly Line trains (due soon) all have regenerative braking. The rest will follow as new trains are procured.

As anyone who travels on the Victoria line in the summer will tell you: it helps, but not much.

I’ve been using this for a while now and the only thing I’ll say is that a lot of videos don’t have alternative titles, so since it’s all crowd sourced I feel that the best solution is to have more people using it.

Brilliant idea regardless.

Thick Bleach like that is really for cleaning inside your toilet, though. Hence the angled top of the bottle

You know that Pro is actually free for something like 5 computers
