Interesting. Doesn’t look like that brand is available outside North America, but maybe there is hope?

Serious question: what options are there for non-smart TVs these days? I remember looking when I bought a new TV a few years ago, and EVERYTHING was “smart”.

I fairly recently tried to do a rm match* but accidentally put a space between the match and the *…

I kinda thought they were in the wrong order, though: “rm -rf ~/“ should have been after “stopped thinking”.

I saw them live years ago, and have the book. Can confirm.

This is everyone in the world except in one country….

This is a much more nuanced view than a “total ban” honytawk suggested. I completely agree this should be the norm.

There’s definitely many sane countries that have “strict” gun control. But that’s very different to a “total ban”.

That is definitely not true. Even in Australia, which has some of the strictest gun laws, we don’t have a “total ban”. If you have a legitimate reason to have a firearm, you can get a license. And yes, legitimate reasons can include “guns are fun” - it just means that if that is your reason, the gun is only used at a gun club, and you can’t walk around the streets with it.

Edit: reading your other posts, it seems you mean “carried in population centres”. Stored and/or used in controlled environments within population centres, and even open carried by appropriately licences individuals (eg police) is still a far cry from a “total ban”.

What country has a “total” ban on firearms?

The emulators contain Potassium Benzoate

The XKCD one is interesting, but seems to be missing the transfer to/from the storage medium sent by FedEx.

If I want to move data from my computer to yours over the internet, the internet bandwidth between our devices/networks is the main consideration. If I’m FedExing SD cards or HDDs, I’ve also gotta take into account the transfer times to get the data ONTO those devices.

I wonder how the analysis would fair when taking into account:

• speed of internet
• TB/kg of storage
• storage medium transfer speeds

For me, the hard part isn’t driving on the “wrong” side of the road. You pick that up pretty quickly. You need to think a bit more when turning, but it’s not so hard. For me the harder part is driving from the “wrong” side of the car. I may have almost mounted a curb or two because I forgot where I was in the lane.

All, team, friends, everyone, folks (preferably prefixed with “howdy”)…

As a Australian, I tend to shy away from USAisms as a matter of course, but I 100% agree. English lacks a formal plural form of “you”, and while Australia has its own informal variation (“youse”), I’m a big fan of y’all.

I like to think that if enough people ended up taking 10 minutes on a support call to validate someone’s identity, when it should take 10 seconds, maybe the companies would learn to stop asking stupid security questions. I like to think that, but in reality nothing will change.

Ah, yes, D7k3y2mHy5lZhbyHa St, I remember it well.
