Like day 2 roadkill in the summer, right?

The Marvellous Mrs Maisel.

Managed to be funny and heartfelt all the way through, with a well written conclusion. Anything that doesn’t wrap up properly just sinks any enjoyment for me, but this show left me feeling satisfied.

Mike Row Soft, fast and funny!

It was for government owned computers, they didn’t want any pirated or virus-infected stuff, and at that point there was no way to lock down such a mish-mash of systems.

The software company (who also do things like run prisons these days) had given permission for us to run the software and given a set of fake data so we could go through the motions when talking people through things, but apparently that wasn’t enough to get it on the list.

You should come and visit Spain, much more high speed rail and a similar quantity of seafood ;-)

A long time ago in a galaxy far away (before the internet was a normal thing to have) I provided over-the-phone support for a large and complex piece of software.

So, people would call up and you had to describe how they could do the thing they needed to do, and if that failed they would have to wait a few days until you went to the site to sort it in person.

The software we supported was not on the approved list for the company I worked for, so you couldn’t use it within the building where the phones were being answered.

Makes sense, European crash testing looks for different things and the e-NV200 was only ever passed as a commercial vehicle here so you couldn’t use one as a taxi.

They are well handy, it’s a shame.

A Nissan e-NV200 is what you want … I’m in Spain, there’s a few about. They’re basic work vans, good amount of space in them, easily fixable, etc.

Pfft, no!

OS/2 Warp

I’m 46, the parts of my life where I haven’t needed to use a car every day have been great for my physical and mental health … now I live too far from work I use a little 125 motorbike to commute, and it’s still much nicer than having to take a car. When I am forced to take a car, the one I have is small and economical.

I didn’t start figuring this out until I was 30, maybe you need a few more years to mature enough to throw off the consumerist mindset?

At 85 years old my Mum can’t drive or walk, she does her own shopping with an electric mobility scooter and occasionally needs the help of others … that works fine for her because she lives in what might be called a “15 minute city” these days.

Just walk in to the local shop on your way to/from wherever else you’re going (or just to get out of the house for two minutes if you’ve been working from home) … that way you can have fresh ingredients every day, and you’re walking a bit regularly so you don’t get overweight easily

Like a giant garbage disposal of dolphins?

I do, because DVDs can’t get pulled from streaming services or be region locked, and it’s worked out cheaper to buy discs than subscribe to yet another service

Belgiums looking good there!

It’s good to see that there’s a few other countries going for it too, I guess there’s large parts of the world where it’s going to be near impossible though due to distances and lack of electricity (until solar cars are cheap and plentiful, but we might have all perished by then, lol)

However Nissan do have R&D and manufacturing facilities in the UK, so the law would affect them directly … also, outside the EU has anyone else proposed a set date to end ICE car sales?

Ok then, you don’t think wanking someone off in from of kids isn’t a bit more than “icky”?

You don’t thing wanking people off in front of kids is a wee bit more than “problematic”?

Nah, mines in Celsius … the poster above probably has an old British oven, they had a lot of hold-outs for imperial measurements.

Didn’t know about Soulseek, thanks :-)
