which is why people always wipe them before playing

As an aside, don't wipe records. While dust is unlikely to damage it, scraping something across the surface can cause scratches which can affect the playback. An air duster is your best bet 👍

I did the same a while ago. I signed up for Instagram because a few friends were on it, but never use it. I signed in a few weeks ago to catch up, and it showed me three or four posts, said that I was caught up, and then just showed me ads and sponsored posts.

Yes, definitely.

I received a live donor kidney transplant over a decade ago, and because of that, my quality of life drastically improved, and I lived long enough to meet my kid and my nieces and nephews.

I've got complex medical issues, so my organs might not be any good, but they're going to be available when I'm gone.

Only way to find out is to check 👍

Go and look now, it doesn't take long 👍

Fair enough. I tried video calling with it at the beginning of the first lockdown, and it was fine for what I needed, but most of the video calling programs were a bit rubbish then.

I very rarely share files with people outside of an already set up organisation, so I haven't had a reason to try their file sharing.

Genuine question, but what's unusable without Nitro? I don't use Discord very often, and the only thing that I've seen Nitro pushed for is reactions from other communities, and that's pointless anyway.

Yeah, it's one of those stupid things that hardly any manufacturers thought of. It probably saved them a few pennies per board though 🙄

Considering how the BIOS beeps were the only way to know what had gone wrong, short of pulling components and testing, it was very shortsighted.

White onion? Lovely with a pinch of salt :)

Pork with apple and cheese is amazing. I usually do pork chops with apple sauce spread fairly thinly on top, and grated mature cheddar on top of that, then cook it under the grill (broil?) as usual.

You'd have to spread the apple sauce thinly on the pizza too, but, yeah, that could work :)

Have you tried talking to a therapist about this? 🤔

Nope. A lot of them back then either had a small speaker in the box that you had to connect, or relied on the case speaker, and they just had the motherboard headers.

I used to have a small collection of the speakers, because you could guarantee that the friend's computer that you were repairing didn't have a way for you to listen to the BIOS beeps :)

From the link you posted, it's a 24" 1080p monitor, so probably not too expensive to replace these days. Check the total cost of any adaptors or converters you need before you buy, as you might find that it's almost the same cost to replace the monitor.

Same here. The question should be has anyone not seen coal 😆

Slightly more seriously though, I've got a bucket of coal in front of my fire right now.

Good point 🙂

A lot of cases from back then only took 80mm fans. To move more air, they had to spin faster and produce more noise. The loud fans were the upgrade 🙈

I haven't used that module, but I've fixed some problems in the past by running npm install in the module's folder, then either rebooting or restarting the MM software.

I don't know whether it's the mirror or the module that causes the problem, but that can help

I wouldn't be surprised if there's a large crossover of people who want to use Messenger but only access it through Facebook.

I've genuinely seen a post where someone was looking for help because they had a problem with Windows and DISM /online /cleanup-image /restore health wouldn't run, it said command not found.

The marked answer from the 'Microsoft representative' was to run DISM /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth

Yeah, they've got no excuse then. It sounds like they just don't give a shit about disabled people or anyone who's not cis.
