Must be that's where you Aussies kept your boots. I think that's British English, tho, right?

Whatever, bearded lady.

Circus in town?

Not thinking of many off the top of my head but I am sure there are many things called by an obsolete name.

Trunk of a car, maybe. Used to be a literal trunk (box) strapped to the car.

Filming someone. Or taping. No film/tape involved now.

"Floppy" disk icon for saving in PC apps. Youngsters probably wonder wtf that is.

There's probably a word for this.

Wow. You are one ugly lady.

If you really want to isolate it, grapheneOS lets you put it in its own profile almost totally isolated from anything in any other profile.

But you probably don't want to buy a g! Pixel.

You could buy a separate phone and only run that app on it. Hassle but it would be secure.

Rimac announced on May 17, 2023, that the Nevera set 23 performance records in a single day, including 0–97 km/h (0–60 mph) in 1.74 s, 0–100 km/h (0–62 mph) in 1.82 s, 402 m (1⁄4 mi) in 8.25 s, and 0–400–0 km/h (0–249–0 mph) in 29.93 s.[26]

Wow.

Thanks for the tip!

Is it possible to dual boot that and keep my existing win 10 install?

I'd like to see passenger vehicles with a motor on each wheel. I don't think that exists now for any in production.

The bullshit I put up with. Goddamn.

That full screen win 11 thing had me going for a while until I noticed the "opt out" button. When an OS starts to become obtrusive, I start to look for alternatives. The primary reason I use Windoze is because of gaming and most of that is through Steam. SO, now that the Steam Deck has pushed some great improvements in gaming on Linux, Linux MINT may be in my near future.

I already use open office on my home machine instead of the MS Office I have to use at work.

Keep pushing M$. You'll push me right away.

I thought the group living just above poverty limits were called the working poor. Does United Way think the new "sexy" acronym will get this group more attention?

I've always felt pretty bad for these folks. They're working and struggling. Minimum wage really does need to triple or quadruple.

You are a bean sandwich!

I am betting on the 4 day workweek. If UAW can get it them I might too.
