Haha. I’ll own that. And I’ll happily try (and, no doubt, love) the Nutella concoction you describe - but I’m standing my ground and not calling it fairy bread! 😉

No, I mean… chocolate sprinkles?! That’s chocolate ant bread! Fairy bread is white bread, butter, and 100s and 1000s. Nothing else. Australia needs to introduce a Fairy Bread Purity Law to protect our sacred food.

Am I the only one thinking “that’s not fairy bread!”?

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

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.

I use my password manager to generate the answer. My mothers maiden name is CzyHcjMKMfwT4tZ7HXbavQrOPo and my first pet was Avhu6FqPTRsWwafA, but we called him Avhu for short.

Well, any country that has tap water.

No, that was a different one.

I know you said “no nextcloud”, but I often see posts from people who say nextcloud was overkill for them, but they don’t realise that almost every component of nextcloud can be uninstalled if you don’t want it. It can be pretty barebones if you want it to be.

I don’t see how you’re going to get away from the domain requirement, though, unless you’re just going to connect to your raw IP address? (And if you are, I didn’t think that nextcloud required a domain?)

Sorry I can’t be more helpful with a different solution, but hopefully someone out there knows of something that would suit your needs.

18 dead Americans

… this time. The only thing “special” about this event was a few more dead than last time. There were 130 “mass shootings” in the first 3 months of this year alone. 48,830 gun deaths in 2021, and rising every year.

I know you weren’t saying this, but I think it’s important to state there’s a LOT more than 18 lives at stake here. I know these numbers won’t make any difference, but what people like this are really saying is that their “rights” are more important than the lives of all those people, and the many more to come.

What law would it be breaking?

Not sure about USA law, but in Australia we would call that “obtaining financial advantage by deception”. Otherwise known as “fraud”.
