We don’t get that lag but we do frequently get it when the camera doesn’t work for somebody.

I really can’t understand the separation between teams, channels and chats. We almost never use anything other than group chats.

Its like if Samsung would remotely lock your TV making you unable to turn it on again because they stopped “supporting” it.

Didn’t Sonos do that with old speakers? I don’t think that it went down well.

If you make a claim like that then you obviously got it from somewhere. That means that it should be easier for you to quote that source.

From the other side it could be very difficult to disprove it because it might not explicitly be stated that it isn’t allowed. It might just not provide the functionality to resell the games. Looking for a source to prove that something doesn’t exist is very hard.

Visio is similar in that the lowest plan doesn’t let you use many of the built in shapes.

You can add them yourself as images but loads of useful shapes for a network diagram, for example, are missing making it very inconvenient to use (I’m now using draw.io).

I can understand limiting certain functionality (like only having a web UI) but not making basic tasks unnecessarily difficult.

That’s not really what it’s saying.

It’s saying if they sell less power then the cost per unit of power goes up. This is how all businesses work due to economies of scale. If you sell a lot of stuff then you can sell the stuff for less money and still make more money.

If you personally use less power then that won’t increase your price per unit enough to offset the savings you made by using less power.

I think that whether it needs plugins or not to do the job isn’t really relevant.

You can develop software in a large number of languages including writing the code (with intelligent code completion), building it, committing it to source control and running and debugging it.

If it didn’t use plugins to do that then it’d huge and take ages to start up.

The two inflation calculators that I found said that a dollar in 2014 should be worth $1.33 in 2025. That’s significantly lower than the lowest price increase in this infographic.

Microsoft SQL Server is most commonly set up as case insensitive in my (limited) experience (it does support case sensitivity too).

Eventually, Koru was towed away without her masts, which were later assembled.

It’s bonkers that this was an option but they still intended to dismantle the bridge instead.

I ordered a laptop the other week. It was a rush job because the previous one was unusable so I selected a model that had next day delivery.

I got an email at about 8.30pm that day saying that they’d dispatched it early! They’d have struggled to have got it to me next day if you’d dispatched it any later.

I used to work on an old DOS product and we didn’t have a debugger so we used to have a DEBUG command line argument with

if (DEBUG) printf(“debugging”);

to try to see what was happening and the number of times that code alone fixed the problem was scary.

It didn’t take long but they have fixed that now. You can’t do a dot as you have to draw a circle around the dot they have.

We would definitely pronounce our as “are” in some cases., usually when referring to a person. “Our kid” or “Our Jack” would have been pronounced “are”.

That bed is a Murphy bed that folds up into that cabinet at the head of the bed. The straps aren’t to hold a person in place, they hold the mattress and bedding in place when it’s packed away.

We still have the UK implementation of GDPR. That didn’t go away when we left the EU.

We won’t have any changes to it that might have happened since brexit but we didn’t remove the law either.

I always find the statement “we care about your privacy” to be a bit meaningless when they then say that they’ll share data with 100s of partners.

That’s what I’m thinking. The homeowner installed it to fake meeting code.

Maybe it’s not changed then because I was using it in the early 2000s. 😀

We used to use Redmine and it was a fantastic piece of software.

You’re right about the glowy baseball bats but I think that Jedi combat is a tough one to pull off well. You can force pull any of the lower enemies into a one shot with the light sabre as it is and there’s no reason that you shouldn’t be able to do that with all human sized enemies that aren’t force users except that it would make for a dull game.

The loot is shit but I don’t know what more a Jedi needs other than armour or blasters but they don’t really use them. It is very weird that I had to find something in a box for me to get the idea to not shave my beard so close.
