Long Term Service Channel. It’s a branch that is used by devices that may not be recommended to be on the latest version of Windows, for example ATMs. When the device needs to essentially be consistently reliable and not received feature updates that could potentially break it.

I too can vouch for one of these. Great for removing a lot of fur. Anything left over I have to use a lint roller.

Sure, but we had Bonzi Buddy too. These days the best we can hope for is some AI that tells us to eat rocks.

I don’t play DRG, just wondering how it has been ruined? I see potency increases to various things to I assume offset the reduction in nastrond charges.

Most surprising changes for me are the Dark Knight changes and Esuna being made instant.

I suspected it would drop after I posted this. The trailer didn’t entice me and felt off with its music choice

Seeing Stardew Valley behind QWOP, I suspect the list is in no particular order. Who could put such an outstanding game truly made with love that low in a list of top games of all time.

No way has it been in Early Access for 2 years?! I picked this game up when I first released but stopped playing it pretty quickly as it felt shallow compared to what was already out there. Maybe I need to give it a go with this update.

Safety razor is the way to go! Take it slow and let the weight of the safety razor do the work. It’s so much cheaper than the multi blade razors too!

Software development. I’m still not very good, but I’m better than I was at the start of the year.

Ah my bad. I thought the song was written by Brandon Flowers after catching his girlfriend cheating on him in a bar in his hometown of Las Vegas.

During lockdown in April 2020, the frontman looked back at the video and noted: “It’s just a song about betrayal. I was betrayed and I was able to turn it into a masterpiece”.

Mr Brightside by the Killers. The tune was good and felt energetic when it came about, but it’s about a guy being cheated on. Having had someone cheat on me around the time it came out it hit really close to home and I just don’t enjoy listening to the song.

The problem with being in the UK is that it’s so overplayed and I just have to tune it out.

Kill the ads for sure, but go ahead and give me movie trailers before the start, but with some limitations in place:

1. None of this “THE. TRAILER. STARTS. NOW” before the trailer starts
2. The trailer must have a maximum length so it doesn’t go on too long
3. The trailer shouldn’t give the entire plot away

Loving Dandadan and obsessed with the intro. The initial episodes fan-service bothered me as it normally does in anime, but it seems to have died down almost instantly after the first episode. The story is both crazy and feels wholesome in some way.

I’m truly impressed by the photographer not being in the photos.

Got a couple.

The first bad interview I turned up and had to wait for the owner who rocked up 15 minutes late. We had a discussion and he was happy with my IT skills, we then got into a discussion of how to run the business.

He asked me what would I do if a salesman kept selling Linux support to businesses but the company had no one that had experience of it, I said it didn’t feel morally right to sell something that you can’t actually fulfill currently, put a cork in the salesman regarding Linux support, train/hire staff and when ready then continue to offer it. He said that’s not how his business works and to drive the business the salesman was doing the right thing.

During that interview I saw someone walk into the office that I had worked with in the past, they were incredibly unreliable, bad at the job and were fired, this one guy appearing gave me the final sign this was not the workplace for me. After the interview they gave me an offer that I declined.

The second interview probably a out 2 months later I turned up to was a small company of maybe 3 people. I turned up and it was a shared office space they used, he walked up to the receptionist and asked if there was a meeting room available, she said no. So he led me to the kitchenette area where he offered for me to sit on a sofa not to dissimilar to this…

Having the hum of a vending machine in the background added to the ambience. We got to chatting and it sounded like the guy didn’t really know what he wanted to do with the business or how to run it, generally seemed disorganised.

Towards the end of the interview wouldn’t you know it, the same guy I used to work with walked into the kitchenette wearing the t-shirt of a company in the building, gave me “the nod” and proceeded to use the vending machine, which failed to dispense his choice and he stood there shaking the machine.

This guy must have been some kind of angel in place to stop me from taking bad jobs. I declined the offer they gave me. A year or so later I was telling a friend about this and we checked on the company, it went out of business.

They were bad interviews, but I still got something out of them.

I picture a 36 month interest free loan on a big purchase could be “good” debt.

I don’t tend to buy things unless I can afford it outright, but sometimes the interest free option is enticing by letting me keep my money accumulating interest in savings each month and slowly paying off that purchase. In doing so it helps my credit rating should I need it in the future for an emergency.

I’m convinced that a lot of the Chinese takeaways in the UK are used for money laundering. Like 90% of the takeaways you go to only accept cash. I get they probably want to avoid a bit of tax on their earnings, but to completely exclude card sales and potentially lose out on that business really makes me think they are up to more.

You probably already have one, but if you don’t; get an electric toothbrush.

Also get a water flosser for when you CBA to manually floss! Imo something is better than nothing.

I found this really useful when I went to university. I was able to keep a job that I could go back to around Xmas to earn a bit of money so I didn’t need to work during term time
