All the movies by Bud Spencer and Terrence Hill.

It doesn’t matter which one, because the plot is always the same.

I like the idea, but unfortunately most PCs don’t boot from USB out of the box. It requires a few easy steps, but this might just be enough for a lot of people not to try it.

He goes on a rant, saying out loud what everyone is thinking.

This is unusual for him.

Personally I liked the start of it more, where he clearly and simply explains some basic facts that a lot of people need to understand.

Just like many other good distros, Friends ended when the larger one ate the smaller ones.

Depends on where in the world.

In my case, if it should happen to me, I would call the union and stop working immediately. The union would then contact the company to inform them of their obligation to pay me and of the fee which doubles every day until they pay. If they fail to pay me and the fees within the set deadline, which is usually 5 days, the working court would quickly send a declaration of bankruptcy. The company don’t get a say in that court. Only the unions of employees and the unions of employers have access. A simple matter like this is resolved quickly because unfortunately there are plenty of precedent cases.

At that point I wouldn’t really give a shit if the company pays or goes bankrupt, because my salary would be paid to me either way. If the company can’t pay, we have a fund to cover salaries to employees of bankrupted companies.

It’s somewhat more complicated for people outside of unions. They have to pay a lawyer to battle it through civil court. They’ll usually win but it can take months and cost a lot.

Pulled Winnie the Pooh.

It’s honey marinated and fat.

Yes, all good here.

They used to be.

“not all cultures in the southern hemisphere named it because it is always either close to the horizon or invisible. For instance, the Brazilian Tucano people called it the Large Anus of the Snake and in Samoa it forms part of the Heirloom Warclub.”

The thing is that native American didn’t get the name from Greek, yet, it is still reference to a bear.

Some constellations, including the Great Bear, were named long before our languages even existed.

Etymology wise we might say it comes from ancient Greek, but it’s also called Great Bear in languages that have no origin in Greek.

I’m going out on a limb here, but I believe the Great Bear is actually named after a great bear.

Not all cultures though. In Brazil, the Big Dipper is also known as “large anus of the snake”.

Can it be used to find the ICE employees?

Of course your barber will object to the practice of shaving yourself.

Photo retouching as a physical trade. Colour photography and instant development killed the art of retouching black and white photos almost from one day to the next, because nobody could retouch colour photos and nobody wanted to pay for retouching black and white photos anymore, when Polaroids were easy to reshoot. My grandparents did it, but had to close the shop in the 1980s. I still have a few of their pens, but most of it ended up in a museum.

50 years ago was in the 1970s. I actually think more skills were lost just in the 20 years prior to that than after. This is due to mass production and plastic, which created the consumer products since the 1960s. Prior to that, you’d actually consider all products (except food) to be a purchase for life.

When was the last time you ate more or less of something because someone in the government told you to?

This is an old Mandela effect.

The issue is that they don’t actually remember what the sun looked like, because you can’t really look at the sun.

Their memories are of the crayon drawings that they made in school.

I play all the rock instruments and then some. I never got along with fretless strings or horns, because they require much more practice.

My main interests are in theory, composing and synthesizers, so I like instruments that are playable from a logic approach rather than muscle memory.

I’m still pretty technically decent with guitars and the djembe. Maybe blues harp too.

If I were to join a band, it’d probably be on bass though.

My daughter’s school did something similar. It was a project about future city development, where groups of kids could create their own visions of what the harbour in the city should be like.

Some went sciency and made robotic models and programmed led-strips and such, but most just painted the sides of cardboard boxes as a restaurant and printed a menu card, focusing on the business aspects.

The school then invited parents and the city council to come see the presentations and to vote on the best project.

They did all the work in school hours, so it’s not like the parents could assist if they wanted to. Of course some kids could potentially ask their parents for funding for expensive robots but I don’t think anyone did or what the point would be. It wasn’t a graded project and the winners got a bag of candy, so it’s hardly worth cheating for.
