I recall Louis Rossmann saying something along those lines, and sounded perfectly reasonable to me.

I recall having the image not found error last time. A mix of creating the USB with another program and tinkering with bios solved the issue. Sorry can’t be more specific, but Linux is all about tinkering, so have fun :)
Doritos. My dad brought home some bags from USA and instantly got hooked on that shit. Fast forward a decade and now with money and selling locally, I ate them until I got sick.
Yup, 700/700Mb. Also wimax but that only gets up to 25Mb
155.000€ for new 5 bedroom 200+ m2 duplex in my small town in Spain.
No HOAs! supermarkets and schools are in walking distance ;)
Cheapest is around 30K, but why bother?
Quite bad. This was over 10 years ago so the details are muddy… It was on BQ hardware and the first weeks it couldn’t even work outside on GSM or 3G (or whatever was at the time). It was clearly developed and tested solely on Wifi. Using cellular connection make it fall apart and constantly hang.
Then it never was able to get WhatsApp working. Everyone uses WhatsApp, and had to get by using old SMS or whoever I got to trick to install the then unknown Telegram.
Eventually got tired and got back to an Android phone. An Alcatel if I recall correctly.
After some time, BQ offered a way to revert the hardware back to its Android version, did that and had a backup for many years.
It was a very messy and buggy launch, but being on the bleeding edge, it’s expected. If they had offered a WhatsApp app I would have hung on way longer, it was the only deal breaker.
I used an Ubuntu Phone as my daily for about 6 months.
Be careful, you may have it good now. For the next generation, they will make them pay a subscription to the police and firefighters service.
I only use 2 PCs with windows. An old laptop with XP I use for vehicle diagnostics and repair manuals, and a Win10 laptop my employer lent me for work. Option number 1 for both.
Yeah, monitors were somewhat dumb, just received and did what the vga output asked to do.
The noise most likely came from the semiconductors that controlled the magnet field that directed the rays onto the screen. These components are selected for a specific speed that the monitor can handle. So going under or over it’s spec can make something resonate in the audible range, and could even destroy the components if stressed too much.
The thing is that for each resolution and refresh rate you had two values to configure, one for the vertical speed in Hz, and horizontal speed in kHz. These values were usually specified in the owners manual. Typos can happen, and this was quite a risky operation.
A 19" monitor was quite big for the day, and expensive! I hope your gf didn’t beat you up too much for that :)
Not the installation strictly speaking, but my most “funny” fuckup was setting up xfree86. There was a configuration for crt monitor scan frequency that you had to setup. I messed up something and the monitor started to squeel like crazy and quickly hit hard reset in panic.
The monitor didn’t die, but it had a slight high pitch noise to it after.
Keeping people that don’t like to drive off the roads is only a good thing.
I don’t see a problem here.
On the other hand, if you are buying cheap it’s usually because you aren’t familiar with the product and it’s characteristics. So you can take it as the price for learning about said product and what you really want from it.
For example, I got a cheap electric scooter for my wife on her birthday. We are new to these things, and didn’t even know if we would use it at all. Fast forward a year and we have used the crap out of it, even the kids can’t stop taking it out for a spin, and we now know what to look for and what sort of power and features we want when it comes time to replace it.
I took WFH for higher pay in 2013. It makes sense because I’m more productive without the noise, uncomfortable lighting, interruptions and subpar hardware.
Not conidering going back to office unless things change A LOT
Not really to impress, but everybody likes a good paella.
Easier on a gas than with embers as I tried the latter for first time and was quite challenging.
Just ask first if everybody is ok throwing in rabbit or chicken, not everyone is fond of rabbit.
It’s funny that in spanish only the “c” is translated.
We say “ce sharp”
