Many years ago, I was supervising at a supermarket checkout. An older lady (late 50’s / early 60’s) started berating one of the young checkout girls, she was newish about 16yo.

I over heard, it was hard not to after a little while. I walked over, I was 19 at the time. I’m not a big guy 5’9" and weighed around 60kg (checks math…132lb). The old woman sees me and begins to go into a rant, to which I simply said, get the fuck out of my store. It was latish (8:30pm), there were no managers left in store.

She went into (what is now called) full karen mode, ranting about calling my manager. I got a bit pf paper and wrote my managers and the store managers numbers down with their names and said, “go ahead, call them”. She quickly calmed down and went to go stand back in line…I said, “no I told you to get out”.

Underrated comment

If we are going with de-extinction, then the Haast Eagle. NZ is really far too safe, we need a genuine predator to keep us on our toes.

That last line…deep breath…

I tried that and it works perfectly.

But it is kind of a crappy work around for a basic function.

Paste into stuff, no extra file created

Ctrl copies it to the clipboard…

Timer doesn’t work with an area, but works well for the whole screen

Thanks for the replies, on my work computer (Win 10) screenshot “just works” to capture an area with no change to the screen.

For years the built-in tools for print screen on Liunx was far superior to Windows, but this seems backwards now.

I eat kiwifruit like this. Fur and all

Little kids concentrating, like 2-3yo. When they are just about to “get” something, and they know it.

It is really cool to see.

I just wish everyone would switch to Firefox.

It is because Chrome has a monopoly, is close enough to monopoly.

In the winter, probably once a week. Unless I do something strenuous, then it would be once I get back home

Summer time, mostly daily.

Except for the crocs, this also applies to New Zealand waters.

If you feel yourself being pulled away from shore, relax, swim across not against.

Also suffers love rips, express line back behind the breakers.

Most of the time it is pretty easy to know what the winter is trying to imply.

It gets really silly when using big numbers. e.g. a nanometre is 100,000 times smaller than a human hair.

My pet peeve with mathy stuff, “something is X times closer/smaller etc than something else”

If A is 1 away, saying B is ten times closer means what exactly? Is B 10 away? 9, 0.1?
I think what most examples are trying to say is that A is ten times the distance to B, but the way it is said if just annoying.

There was a young man from Bluff,
Who quite frankly had enough.

Feeling sick through,
With with interchangable red/blue.

With research in hand,
And policy that’s not bland.

This time with great zeal,
This time I’ll vote the colour teal.

To be fair I haven’t had a Nvidia card in about 4 years.

So things could have changed, but over the preceding 15 odd years, no other thing caused me more issues than Nvidia drivers. But I put up with it, that is what you had to do to get good graphics.

The AMD GPU I have now, has been great, no issues at all. I had chipset issues mainly on the new laptop.

Yep, really new hardware is still an issue.

My new Zenbook (AMD CPU/GPU) had pretty major issues until the chip family was around a year old.

Previous to this laptop, I always got older hardware when it went on sale (usually from Dell), chip sets and CPU’s that have had a while to “mature” I never had any issues with. Except of course with Nvidia drivers, those are always shit.

If you stick with older hardware, you very likely wouldn’t ever experience hardware issues.

I’ve been running various distributions at my primary OS since around 2006. Hardware support these days is amazing.

This vegan sour cream is really nice, super easy also: https://youtu.be/8ILzKYAZWGY?list=PLxWGB-fhb7NXHzQPI5dn6kM_8cGxarJKl
