I use them to get around shitty launchers too.

I don't agree with this.

We have been moving away from family for many decades now. However I was able to travel by train in 2000 from Liverpool to Reading, I don't think I would have done if it was £120, which is the current return price from Lime St. to Reading, it was half that.

That's insane.

Misleading by omission is deception

Here are some other examples:

A book, The Cathedral and the Bazaar about software development.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Cathedral_and_the_Bazaar

A fashion and "lifestyle" magazine

https://www.harpersbazaar.com/

We have a lot of foreign food stores around here that are called "The Bazaar Supermarket" etc.

You've never heard of people bending the truth?

Saying something factually correct, but misleading because parts are omitted?

I still listen to radio, however its almost all online radio.

Modern Pop, 2000's Pop, 90's Pop, 80's Pop, just really don't interest me or anyone else in my family, however its the vast majority of the radio.

Soma FM for me.

I disagree.

I've been though the Steam Sales for well over 10 years now, and I remember when they switched up how they did it.

Yeah you no longer have a 90% discount for a single day on a game so there isn't anywhere near as much chatter, which I miss, but there are plently of big names with 90% off. I think that is either what you miss, or you are now 5 years older and just don't get as excited, or there hasn't been much released that interest you.

Games with good reviews and 90% off:

Is it the sales, or are there just less games coming out at the moment that interest you at any price?

However all they appear to advocate for, are the things that historically we have done, and are mentioned in the article.

Veganic Farming? Its just Vegans trying to hijack a normal process of crop rotation and cover cropping so they can make some snide remark that apparently it is animal feed that's the problem.

That's weird that there are several ways to get access to the Quick Guides, and some seem to want an email.

However it doesn't use it and takes junk (I just used a@b.com which was accepted), but sad that the form you found needed it.

But to answer your question, no I missed that link and went to "downloads" which also has the guide but doesn't appear to require any email.

Seizing firearms does not make it a factory

I just did a websearch and first result was a download link on their US website too which didn't require registration.

There seems to be a lot of nonsense on here.

Err, you mean the piece of paper that came in the box, or is available to download on their website as a link without having to register?

Update your DAS? What are you talking about?

The brand that runs their OS off of a USB stick inside the device

Are you alright?

If you use a reputable brand, such as TerraMaster you'll avoid all of the scare stories you hear.

Almost everything bad seems to be along the lines of

I bought "off brand" XzzYyG from Amazon/EBay/Wish and it failed

Something like this:

It'll be faster than your spinning rust anyway, as long as you have high speed ports on your mini PC.

I've had "trash controllers" in Orico units which rewite the drive details which makes them annoying to work with but I've never heard of

your drives will vanish in the middle of a write, and corrupt themselves

That sounds likes its underpowered and when the draw is up the supply can't handle it, which could happen for internal drives if your supply isn't up to powering enough drives.

Use a reputable brand like TerraMaster and you'll not have those sorts of problems.

This is completely untrue.

You can get plently of performant arrays over USB. You do know how much USB 3.1 or 4 can transmit?

Enclosures often don’t cool as well so heat may degrade your disks faster as well.

DAS enclosures can do a great job of cooling by separating and not sharing the air inside a single case.

Thats an interesting position.

I dont keep my credit card information on the load balancer that holds my certs.

The plans come as low wind and solar power generation forced Britain to rely heavily on burning gas and wood pellets. As of Thursday, about 65% of Britain’s electricity was being generated from gas and biomass, with only 5.3% coming from wind.

Is that because although we have built "a lot" its still not much, or has wind just generally been down and we should be over-provisioning to make up for these times?

I thought that we've had a lot of wind recently, at least around here or is this a manipulation of stats because last Thursday was a low day and it helps set a narrative?

I tried to follow the link but it was shit on mobile.

I assumed it was just cheap whipped sugar with vanilla flavourings, but I have no idea.

No, it appears to be a Mars bar clone. However the nouget is dark in photos, so it could be a chocolate flavour.
