I got a tree from my local library, but that wasn’t to borrow and neither was it a regular service.

I don’t think there’s space - there’s IQ above where the E would go.

Looks like a V.

There’s an L next to a triple the other side - ALE could go there.

You need to put the domain user in the local administrators group. Easiest way to do this is through the Computer Management MMC snap-in.

It’ll give full admin rights over the local computer though - You can’t just give admin rights to one program AFAIK.

As well as the ones that have already been mentioned, you can also check out (the pinned posts on) [email protected] which is in the process of being updated.

Yes, it does. Without the plate you will get hot and cold spots where the waves interact. If you don’t have a rotating plate you should be manually rotating the food, unless there’s some new tech I’m not aware of.

Yeah the main instance is Chinese, there are English ones but not many. It’s still new.

Apparently deaf from birth people don’t make any noise when they sneeze, as they’ve not heard anybody else do it so don’t know they “should”.^[1] I’m not a particularly loud sneezer but it strikes me as odd that any noise at all would be learned behaviour.

Some people do make a lot of noise though, to the point where I’m thinking that it can’t all be involuntary.

I think they’ve glued the Q and U together to make it easier. Technically that’s one single 11 point tile.

The eBay password limit is 256 characters.

They made the mistake of mentioning this when I went to change my password.

Guess how many characters my eBay password has?

Yep.

Drum on their steering wheel with actual drumsticks.

Maybe not Linux per se, but certainly learning how to write scripts and other technical stuff, to automate boring tasks or alert me of things, or writing applications to do things I need, has been a massive time saver - but also a time waster as I enjoy it, and probably spend longer on these things than the amount of time they’ve saved.

And as footnote, it’s always easier to do this stuff on Linux than Windows… plus you can stick things on a Pi so it’s cheap and quiet.

I don’t think I’ve ever used Dear to start an email; always Hi for as long as I remember.

I don’t like To, it always seems like a command rather than a greeting. I write it on cards and stuff but it always leaves a niggling feeling of wrongness.

If it calls for 200g of aubergine, then you can weigh that at the shop… It’s more convenient at that end, and you can get the right amount.

Depends what it is. In this instance I was buying cups of fruit, how many cups are there to a punnet? I already have the weight on the packaging, so if I know the weight I need it’s much easier.

I’m amazed they are that uncommon. Here (UK) you can walk into a supermarket and pick them up for less than £20.

Some good answers here, thanks everyone, I’ve learnt some stuff today. 🙂

Not quite the same as Stones and Kilogrammes are both units of weight. Using cups is like weighing somebody using those luggage size baskets in the airport.
