Twist it!

Well, I celebrate your lunacy and perseverance. Maybe go all out in a few comments. It’s like a puzzle.

Shavian, right?

Edit: while some might think it nuts (it’s not like GBS was universally received, he was deliberately inconsistent), the idea of rebaselining phonetics from scratch was impressive.

My wife is still on Mac OSX, but my son has embraced Mint. I’m a bit cheesed off that there aren’t (obviously) many kid friendly programming tutorial resources, other than maybe getting a sub to codeacademy. Other than that, all good.

She cancelled some concerts in Vienna recently following arrests and intel about ‘ISIS inspired’ threats.

That looks great thanks!

Er, this is mine.

This is an exceptional write up, thanks!

I started with Mint and it was very simple to set up. I don’t really like the DE though (personal preference, I’ve used OSX for over 10 years). From your description it sounds like I can change Cinnamon to something else - is this fairly straightforward to do?

I’m looking to use the machine as a photo processing platform (from film and digital) and finding alternatives to Adobe products like Lightroom and Photoshop… with a view to ultimately having a NAS and cloud backup once I get to it.

TIL. Huh. Thanks! Now it makes sense.

Feature flags baby. This is how we do it.

Make it live but disabled, have an env prior to prod with them on, for any regressions.

Launching your already comprehensively tested and actually live feature? An easy deployment.

Can someone please tell me how to do this for the BE. Ta.

FYI you can text the police (or any emergency service) in the UK if you pre register. Took me less than a minute to do.

Oh wow this is real.

Nice, someone congratulated him in the comments. 😂

Maven, you can speak to us random internet people. We’re still (mostly) real people. We may not have anything useful by way of response. Who knows.

Is it ‘ubiquitous’?

Wow. I hope the mods have batch-removal tools.

I refer to our sysadmin as a BOFH and he doesn’t seem to mind. The younger devs don’t know the term without googling it.

The sysadmin column feels so right.

Mint Cinnamon was very straightforward for (a not very technical) me on a 2016 MacBook Air v7! Dual boot was a tiny bit trickier, but it’s given an old machine a new lease of life. Highly recommend.

Aah same actress as Deadpool’s significant other. Morena Baccarin I think? Absolute smokeshow.

Who is that on the right?
