Elon Musk is the joke. It’s just not funny.

I think the original book title is: Rita Hayworth And Shawshank Redemption. So not as crazy as it seems.

I’ve told you countless trillions of times to stop exaggerating.

I’ve never heard of that bracelet (surprise surprise) - talk about a pipe dream. I just want to be able to view diagrams and plans on something bigger than a phone. Whilst on site and off grid. And yes, I know they’re available on paper but… reasons. We use tough-tablets sometimes but their pretty cumbersome when not in use.

More screen space in a smaller portable form is of tremendous use to some people - until projectors come of age at least.

Honestly, where I operate, almost nobody uses (outgoing) sms/mms - unless their phone has actual physical buttons on it. It’s all iMessage for those who can or something like Viber for those who can’t. I can’t see why anybody would take a step backwards to RCS when it offered nothing that we haven’t already been doing for years - and it’s apparently network dependant.

Honestly, zero is a good solid points haul for some Only Connect rounds… my girlfriend did a victory lap of the house the first time she scored anything.

I found it tiresomely political and strangely dogmatic way too much of the time. I didn’t get the impression that there was a wide cross-section of people on there.

Perhaps if an app wants to do business in a country it should send an ambassador there to have a full time presence. Seems a reasonable compromise to me.

He really is the DJ Khaled of technology… which is not a compliment. Can people not just tell “certain sections” of Texans that an uppity African American with a couple of baby mommas and lots of money is moving in to their neighbourhood? And bringing his “business interests” with him too.

I used rhythmbox on a system running Mint to move music to and from an iPod nano 2. It was fairly straight forward. Save the transfers before closing the programme and you’re good to go.

Enough with your psyop, Bill. Go back to trying to cure malaria to atone for your past sins.

You may have heard of PVC (Poly VINYL Chloride I think) cladding - same thing. In the UK it’s predominately used for soffit and fascia (the normally white plastic bits between the top of a house wall and the beginning of the roof tiles where your gutter lives) It’s worth noting that PVC cladding is only to “pretty-up” finished buildings. It has zero construction strength but when fitted properly will stop all water penetration. Give it a wash once a year and it’s as good as new.

They most certainly do - and appear to have always been. Look at the Hijra or another similar group. Do you really think that of all the billions and billions of humans that have been made that nothing has ever gone slightly differently than usual at around week 9 of pregnancy when biological sex begins to be determined? Really? If you can be born missing a limb or fused to your twin it’s not a stretch of imagination to realise it could be possible to land somewhere in the middle of the two established biological sexes.

Apart from the fact you can hide photos in your album this is so out of touch with reality… applying stop and search with your kids. Imagine a high ranking police officer forgetting about how important trust is in any two-way relationship.

First person singular and third person singular. Both singular.

Yeah - that’s probably all true. Most people seem to cope with “you singular” and “you plural” in English but struggle with “they/them singular” and “they/them plural”. I’m not sure why.

“I goes”. Incorrect “They goes”. Incorrect

“They” can quite happily function as singular. I asked my friend about this and they gave me their opinion. They told me that they use “they” or “them” to discuss people when their biological sex is unimportant or unknown. I would like to ask them more but they have to leave. They tell me that they’ll be back later.

They (singular) say something. He/she/it says something. They (all) say something. You (all) say something. I say something. You (singular) say something. You’ll notice “he/she/it” seems to be the irregular outlier here. English is strange.
