The music industry needs to die off already.

You know what I find it akin to in the industry I work in and I know this gonna cause some controversy - but the 9-5 Mon-Fri managers we have at work.

I work something called Continental shifts which are basically days/nights/days/nights on a A/B/C/D rota throughout the space of a month.

What I find telling is we run absolutely fine on weekend days and all our night shifts but, we have these what I'm going to call leeches (but the controversial term is.....Office Drones) just like the copyright fuckwads illustrated here that suddenly appear throughout the week and are a general nuisance?

They really don't do anything I can see that benefits the company/industry other than sending emails etc for others to send them a report that's readily available/start bullshit investigation etc.

They make me grumble these leeches :/

I almost just want a cheap piece of crap dumb phone

Looked into a KaiOS device? Not entirely dumb, GMaps is only the web version so no voice navigation etc.

But might be something of interest to ya?

We also have KFC and McDonald's, but does that mean a study from the US about them should be posted here too?

It's really not on topic especially since it's coming from an Australian study?

What's this got to do with the UK exactly?

[–] ladfrombrad@lemdro.id 21 points 1 year ago

You'd think they'd include an ethernet port on the device itself.

Or, hopefully they include a power brick with a RJ45 port. WiFi for streaming large high bitrate files is less than ideal especially if it's touted as a set top streaming box.

Very true.

I generally just use my ceramic bladed hair cutter on 0 when I'm not required to have a clean, clean shave, and then like I say above just use a BIC when I need a baby's bum face for work etc.

The twin / triple blades I find can be off-putting to some since if you have too much growth they latch on and snag.

APKMirror uses the hash from the Play Store to verify they're serving you the legit apk.

It's been around for years, the owner is very keen about their little baby, but relies on adverts. If you can put up with the latter you're gucci

Yeah, we've got something I recall being called the P-laws or something brought in, meaning all new sockets need to be a certain height above floor level.

I've seen many rented houses here that still have them on the floor since older builds ain't required to rectify them. Scary if you see all the recent flooding we've been having in some parts of the country :/

But those three pin / fused BS 1363 whilst been one of the safest sockets you can get, I can confirm they're an absolute bastard if you stand on one.

Personally, I never learned how to use a razor

🤔

Alright. Ima be ur daddy and tell you have to shave in 3 minutes flat.

  • Acquire some BIC single blade razors

  • Head to shower, put it on steaming hot and apply steaming hot water to face. Getting a hot towel after getting out of the shower and leaving it on your face for a while makes a tough shave even moar comfortable.

  • Lather shaving foam all over face

  • Run BIC razor under cold running water and shave until your face is like a baby's bum

  • Rinse thoroughly with cold water to remove all lather

As a Britbong, I'm always proud of not only BS1363 and the safety it has brung us over the years but the fact that I know that number off the top of my head.

I usually have a goldfish memory for things like that.

Ah I see, that's pretty cool. Suppose it's just the look of their website that reminded me of a knock off site or something.

While I've used ClamAV and knew they had a Windows app as well as other platforms I've never heard of the above website, and it smells funny to me.

ClamAV has been around for years, and I'd throw caution to the wind with the above Windows executable from ClamWin......
