Strange. I have a displaylink box ar home. My Ubuntu machine works first time every time. My wife’s Windows 11 PC takes 10 minutes of stuffing around every time I try to connect it.

I’m an Aussie. Same king, different colony :P

Crosstalk while trying to dump a load sounds horrendous.

I caught the train for my 9-5 in the CBD. I have no idea how I dodged that!

This is bullshit because no bloke has ever mumbled a word in a dunny block.

No, because this article was published in April.

Linux is great when you have the opportunity to choose the right hardware upfront.

There’s a few things that are outright neglected.

I’ve been running a relay from home for years. I think I’ll have a shot at this. I’m not sure we want Russians on tor right now though.

The client APK that I’m running appears unaffected.

I have uBlock origin on Firefox and it looks fine. No ads. No deformities.

Can confirm. My car is that colour. Am yet to collide with a cyclist.

I don’t have great hopes for the Australian election 6 months away.

ISPs often have SMTP relay servers. If you hook into that, your mail gets instant street cred.

IMO anything sold by weight should be measured by weight in a recipe.

I could have an exception for things under 20g, which scales seem to get wrong a lot. I can do spoons, but not cups.

Also: Metric only. A tablespoon is anywhere from 13g to 20g depending on who you’re talking to. A gram is always a gram.

It once played perfectly fine under WINE, then Roblox explicitly blocked it for no good reason.

They turned it into Cher-noble.

Reducing the size and weight of a car goes a long way for environmental impact. People seem to think it’s just less fuel being burned.

In reality, there is a reduction of almost every consumable. Smaller tyres. Less tyre wear. Less brake dust. Less oil used. Less chemicals when washing. Less wear on the road surface. Less manufacturing emissions. Less disposal when it’s done.

The relationship isn’t linear either. Doubling the weight of the car results in about 10x the surface wear.

I’m parenting two kids with ADHD. One is also ASD.

1. Sleep. They won’t get ready for bed. They won’t go to bed. They won’t get out of bed in the morning. They won’t get ready for school.

2. They struggle a bit. They can make 5 minute friends, but they often become demanding or lash out at the first sign of frustration and their friends don’t hang around. They can offend people easily.

3. Meds. Melatonin and stimulants. Super effective. The school will call me within 90 minutes if I forget to administer meds. It’s that obvious.

4. I am burnt out. All the time. It’s hard to do anything but raise the kids and go to work.

5. Probably a reliable babysitter. The grandparents have very limited capacity.

I keep telling you. She’s 18 years old, and she’s dead.

Don’t get short with me, buddy!

Where I’m from, “dragged” means to be removed against your will.

You know, like “the pitcher got dragged after the first inning”.
