- Comment on HP ditches 15-minute wait time policy due to 'feedback' 1 month ago:
I don’t think that’s fair. Plenty of people in this world do not know much about computers or the internet or anything in that area and just need a printer. So they go to their local big box store and there’s the HP printers and they’re a good deal, so they buy them.
Consumers do not get what they deserve when companies treat them like shit just because they don’t have certain knowledge.

Dahl was a great author but wasn’t a very pc person , his family have had to apologise for his anti semitism.
That is putting it very mildly.
"There is a trait in the Jewish character that does provoke animosity, maybe it’s a kind of lack of generosity towards non-Jews. I mean, there’s always a reason why anti-anything crops up anywhere. Even a stinker like Hitler didn’t just pick on them for no reason.”
He said that in *checks notes* 1971.

If you want ceiling tits, you better pull yourself up by your ceiling bootstraps.

Interesting! I had no idea. Thanks!
- Comment on How is my bedroom being heated? 1 month ago:
The ceilings here are super high. I wouldn’t be able to reach it. Would a heated ceiling be all that efficient?
- Comment on How is my bedroom being heated? 1 month ago:
Apartment. First floor (second floor for Americans). Heat does rise, so maybe that’s it?
- Comment on How is my bedroom being heated? 1 month ago:
So it’s just really good insulation?
- Comment on How is my bedroom being heated? 1 month ago:
Would the walls and floor still be cold if they were doing that? I honestly have no idea how that would work.
- Comment on How is my bedroom being heated? 1 month ago:
I am not on the ground floor, and I thought maybe it would be some under-floor heating thing like you are saying, but I have walked all over the room in bare feet and felt no heat in the floor.

I’m not sure how else it stays that warm when it is below freezing outside.

- Comment on Kindle Is Making It Harder to Switch to Rival eReader Brands. 1 month ago:
That’s my situation too. Got the Kobo Clara Color as a Christmas present for myself (the color was like $10 more, so what the hell) after resisting eBooks for years, and I really love it.
They take almost any ebook type, but they do have their own proprietary format, KEPUB. That’s what their own store uses. Thankfully, Calibre can convert to and from it. Due to Kobo being able to more easily handle zooming in to images and things like that with KEPUB, it’s sometimes worth converting.

You’re not learning anything if Copilot is doing it for you. That’s the point.
- Comment on Kevin sounds nice! 1 month ago:
Like pretty much every scene he’s in when he’s in the Spy Kids movies.
People who grew up with those movies must be in for a real shock if they ever end up watching Tie Me Up! Tie Me Down!

Are you saying his theme song is a lie? Because it says he’s going to take pollution down to zero!
