FTL. At least until you've beaten the game several times
Me too, and I remember in the mid 2000's before flat screens took off the biggest CRT you could get was 36", or there may have been a 40" but it was ultra expensive. One thing though is that the wider aspect ratio of modern tvs inflates the size number if you were to watch 3:4 aspect shows on a modern tv you are losing a bunch of viewing area on the sides.
Regardless, modern tvs are indeed insanely huge, and I'm loving it.
Cool though still a bit confusing, like what's a "Device file"? Also so many of those are so similar in use like /usr and /sbin. Why would one be used over another?
This was a few years ago but I was able to google something like "vacuum repair" to find this place where we got ours. They had lots of used repaired ones but we had to hunt around the shop a bit til we found the one we liked
We went to a little shop that repairs vacuums and such and found an old Electrolux cannister vacuum from the 70s or 80s for relatively cheap. Apparently they are quite popular with people who clean houses professionally as they last a long time and are repairable. It's a bit of a pain to drag around the cannister but really not too bad over all and works very well.
I think they are actually molasses flavoured toffee if it's the ones I'm thinking of. Always left to the very last, only to be consumed in the more dire of candy draughts
If the reaction of the kids who come to my door is any indication the best is ring pops. You can sometimes hear kids shouting to other ones down the street "hey, this place has ring pops!"
Worst: those molasses toffees with the orange/white/black wrapper
Yeah torn down for SkyTrain expansion wasn't it?
Don't worry about them being kidneys, they look more like rocky mountain oysters to me
Reading this headline as a foreigner is rather amusing. I thought they were referring to some kind of small scale modified version of cow-tipping but for flies.
It's measuring the distance to your nearest copy of Sid Myers alpha centari
This one gets me every time
How did you find crowdstrikes test plan?
Check with your credit card if you bought it that way. A lot of them offer warranty extensions that can double warranty length (up to an extra year). I've used it before once for a camera and it's a bit convoluted but it works. I think the process for me was to call the credit card company to confirm it would be covered, then getting a repair estimate from an authorized repair place. Then they either approve it and pay for the repair or pay you the original value if the repair would cost too much.
I once read that in his original iteration Cookie Monster did have a hole in his mouth so he could actually consume the cookies but children found it too disturbing so they modified it so he just sprays them everywhere.
Gotta look cool for the cameras
I've seen some produce with a sticker showing PLU and a barcode. Is the barcode in that case just an encoding of the PLU or something grower specific?
Ultimate portage
I've noticed recently that as I'm paging through lemmy in firefox if a video is posted it will start auto-playing with the volume maxed. I don't mind it autoplaying before I get there but it's very annoying to have a page load and suddenly getting blasted with unexpected sound.

Just saw these guys in Miramichi, New Brunswick this weekend when we were visiting for the eclipse and quite enjoyed their show. A mix of their own music (like this song), traditional irish/scottish music and covers of some local artists like Stan Rogers and Great Big Sea

Tried our hand at making deep dish pizza for new years. Turned out quite good but I'm no expert so I can't say how accurate it was. I am told the toppings are supposed to all go under the sauce but I couldn't resist putting some pepperoni on top
