It annoys me that they didn’t build this right by the train station. Instead it’s likely literally at the other end of town.

i’ve even received them as gifts (very expensive ones) but i just threw it in the trash

Wouldn’t it have been better to tell the gift giver that you’re really happy that they thought if you, but for security/moral reasons you don’t want to install it? At least they could have returned it and got their money back.

Must be just an American thing? I never hear anyone say it here!

Also, could you be on of Lemmy’s oldest users?!

Nope, it’s just by accident. Must be a certain demographic that seems to have fallen into the habit of saying it as I never hear people use “on” in real life.

I think they’re calling you out on saying “on accident” rather than “by accident”

Treasure Island Dizzy only had a single life. One of my earliest memories is of my sister losing her shit as she accidentally dropped the snorkel while she was cycling through her inventory underwater.

Can I run your patched version of docker on docker?

Ah you’re just up the road from me. Guessing you changed at Preston? Hopefully you find something soon!

It’s not even a $5 one-off fee, it’s a $5/month subscription!

You need to use tags on your resources if you want to get a better breakdown of what your more specific resources are costing you.

You can filter by tags in cost explorer.

Probably because it’s the defacto messaging app in the UK and nobody probably questioned it.

No? You need to drive at the speed limit when it’s safe - not over it or under it.

You can go slightly under the speed limit but going much slower for no reason could get you pulled over. It’s also something you would fail to pass your test on if you were driving under the limit for no reason.

Onto the struggle point I don’t really understand the foot pain thing, there’s barely any travel on the accelerator between 20mph and 30. Personally I find the struggle is finding the right gear to stick to 20. It’s too fast for 2nd gear, but a bit too slow for third, at least that’s the case for our car.

It’s a noble goal don’t get me wrong, but cars are just way too convenient to get rid of for most that don’t live in the central zones of cities. Just things like taking your kid to their swimming lessons, evening activities, going to the tip and garden centre and dropping off at your parents en route, visiting friends that are several villages away, kids birthday party and then going to the supermarket after to pick up some food etc.

Something I’ve noticed is that people on Lemmy never seem to advocate for busses, it’s always trains.

As much as people on Lemmy love trains, they’re not replacing cars no matter how good the infrastructure is.

Trains are already electrified.

You’re supposed to stop using the mouse while it is charging, and use the mouse unplugged.

Why? Says who? There’s been a few times where I’ve booted my work laptop up in the morning and my mouse is dead and I’ve had to plug it in. Once it’s charged I unplug it. What’s the harm in that? I’d be way more furstrated if I had to open up my laptop (I keep it closed with an external monitor) and use the trackpad instead.

I get that, but it doesn’t really make sense with a mouse as I pretty much never see the front of it as it’s always ahead of me. The only person who would see it would be if someone were to be sat opposite.

This is clearly propaganda by Big Penis.

It was awesome. Especially paired with the msn messenger plus mod.

Near the end of its time and also when WiFi was taking off, I had friends with everyone in a uni house, but their WiFi was quite unreliable, so every hour or so I’d get 6 “person is online” pop up toasts appear simultaneously, stacked up on top of each other.
