Virgin is the fucking worst. Throttles upload, blocks sites, isn't even cheap

Edit: basing this all of my friends' wi-fi's because I would fucking never pay for Virgin

Rancher got a lot better very quickly, but I've never used podman and have heard mixed things about it... Might give it a whirl at some point, but I've been saying that to myself for years

Dunno if it's decent but I've been hosting one service on quay.io since about 2017 and other than that time redhat changed the login system and I had to fart about for a few mins,, I've never had any issues... Tbh though I probably only update that image about twice a year so I'm not exactly power-user-ing it

I never got the impression Michelle even wanted to run, and frankly I'm not impressed by the notion that the best candidate was a wife of a previous victor. Didn't work out terribly well last time, and not actually particularly great credentials on their own

Many years ago, my aunt bought an old, terribly specced laptop and couldn't get Windows to run on it. I installed Ubuntu and everything was fine - she could check her email and browse toxic conspiracy theories on Facebook and all was good with the world.

Two years later when visiting I got my first support request - would I mind showing her how to print something? No problem, but would you mind showing me what you were trying? She was selecting menu items to send to a virtual printer, not the one on the network. I show her the correct printer to send to and the thing prints. Easy. Out of curiosity, I check the outbox queue for the virtual printer. Over a hundred documents, going back two years.

For two years she'd been unable to print, and every single time she'd ever attempted to print something she'd followed the exact same steps that didn't work, and just accepted that this was the way things were.

SMH.

They missed out the context code:

trait DoW { def length: FiniteDuration }
object Monday extends DoW { override def length = 24.hours }
...
implicit def toDoW(s: String): DoW = s match {
 case "Monday" => Monday
...
}
var day: DoW = _

Producer of calculators says kids don't need to learn maths, they just need a calculator

Acorn falls on car. 'Shots fired! I'm hit!' Shots were fired. By him. At car. Man was in back seat. He not police now.

I just want to never have to hear about this cunt again. Is that why people like him?

Kids can be really sweet, when they're not being twats.

I mean, it's red in the middle. That's not normal for a kiwi. Big fan, never seen these
