Same. I settled on Debian around 1999 and stayed there. A brief side trip to the ope source Solaris.


Switch to experimental, switch to proton Glorious Eggroll, check protondb, set proton_log and look at log files.
Lotta products packaged in the USA and shipped up.
Thry try harder to hide it lately…
Probably not with French on it.


So instead of the historical flooding and deposition of sediment, the flood water goes downstream? I don’t know if that’s necessarily better, as described. Flood water needs to spread out, slow down, and soak in. Else it creates worse problems elsewhere.
Zeeland being in the Netherlands, though. The way you replied made it sound UK.


I can’t imagine the video transcoding is very good. Is that an issue?
I’d never heard of premade dough powder. It might be something you can make yourself though. Pizza dough is just flour, water, salt, yeast. Optionally a little sugar, garlic powder, oregano.
We do an overnight ferment then freeze the dough balls.
Sounds like Rincewind and Cohen the Barbarian, all right.
That’s totally a decent option. Unless you want the space under it for cars or something, of course.
You kinda answered your own questions there. You get a lift and a crane. Presumably whatever local company installed them would also repair them.


Now we know.


Yeah, it’s good. Sort of like a survival cookie clicker.
Sometimes!
But yeah, no, chocolate bars are usually 50-60g. Which is also a thing, because they used to be 72g. I remember that number specifically because that’s two of your “ounces”, except on a second Tuesday during the ides of march when an ounce is like 85 grams. But only for red things. There’s a whole separate system for blue things.
hahah, there’s a small deli up the road and the same guy runs the counter most of the time.
True that, especially as they shrinkflate it. A chocolate bar is usually 50-60g these days. Used to be 71g as I was a kid. Gee I wonder where that number came from…
I’ve heard that one of the reasons that metrification didn’t take off in the States was that when they converted highway signs, they rounded down instead of up, so people got mad at “losing” a couple km/h. Tactical error, there.
yeah, a duodecimal metric system would have been better. Still, it’s more important to have a standard system than it is for it to be ideal. It’s the strongest argument for US customary system within the USA, as well - but that argument breaks down when you widen the scope to the world.
In the 18th century context, and its dozens of competing measurement systems, something like the metric system was sorely needed just for standardization. We’re just lucky that it was something more or less sensible. Had the US customary system won out, I think we’d be objectively worse off.
So it could have been better, but it could also have been MUCH much much worse.
In any context where it’s important, you’d note it with +/-. Not really a problem.
I guess there’s nothing wrong with saying 1/8th metre, 1/8th centimetre, 15/16th metre either. Just as some people might use 0.356 inches.
That’s a shame. I wonder if they’re losing money on them now. Always been borderline.
