Keep running it for a while and after some time 5 or 10 years you will struggle when people ask you about (basic) Windows stuff.

Yes we need more long time energy storage. It helps to balance the energy grid and it helps for days when not enough energy is produced. Batteries aren’t really the answer, but pumping water uphill might be.
A while ago I came to the conclusion that a Casio G-Shock is the best watch. They don’t have to be expensive, a good one will sync the time multiple times a day, so it’s always accurate. A good one also has small solar panels in the watch face, so the battery will never be empty, and all of them are really build to last.
From a pure functional perspective I think it’s the best watch ever made. It basically tells you the correct time, always.
I work in software development, I understand websites, webservices and the backend it all runs on at a pretty deep level.
But I never owned an Apple device. So whenever my wife (iMac user) has a problem and I try to help, I struggle with all the basic shit. I don’t know the interface, don’t know the menu structure, don’t have muscle memory for basic key bindings (like copy paste).
Same with my parents, a few years ago my dad gave my mom his old iphone, didn’t do any factory reset etc. She used logged out his apple id and logged in hers. But the apps he installed refused to update, very little information from the device about the problem. They don’t know you shouldn’t do this and just give me the phone and say apps don’t update. It took me a while to figure out what the hell was even going on.

I just found out GUMBIES 7 isn’t backwards compatible with GUMBIES 1.
And yes I know GUMBIES 1 was released in 2013, but still what the actual fuck!
It’s just a number, and all units are relative. So if you set it to 1 and make sure the equation still is valid it doesn’t matter.

Based on that graph it’s 85% of aviation, so I think it’s under aviation, because passengers make up 85%
Also because aviation is actually not a big part of the CO2 emissions

We should still try to fly less, but there are other sectors that can make a much bigger impact.
I don’t know, maybe it’s because PHP used to be the default web based language? I just buy hosting, I don’t sell it…
I’m not the one you asked, but what I like isn’t really about PHP itself, but the fact that I can get dirt cheap hosting with PHP and MySQL. Every time I want to create a small “app” that makes some manual task easier it’s very useful to create something I can access from the internet.
Python is really useful for stuff like that too, but (in my experience) not as easy and cheap to use as an web app.
For example I go to dinner with some friends every month and we always forget who’s turn it is to choose and book a restaurant. So I just made this PHP page that shows the current and next 2 months with a name. So we always use that to see who’s turn it is.
I was thinking this as wel, we have an entire generation that is poorer than the previous one, something that you basically never see in history.
Also it seems that politics has gone utterly insane. At some point I feel left vs right was about money. Should we help the poor and take more from the rich or should we lower taxes etc.
Now it’s about wokeness, crazy conspiracies, actually supporting Russia (like wtf happened there), etc.
Exactly they really really need some weapons and are being killed by the Russians every day.
Exactly, this is how you pay off your mortgage
Why did Linux systems go for capitals in the home folder? It’s actually kind of annoying and takes extra key presses.

I’m fairly sure Microsoft is actively trying to screw Firefox. Outlook has always sucked in Firefox, teams is a shit show. When you use a useragent switcher somehow a lot of features seem to work magically in Firefox (which tells me MS is doing this on purpose).
For Outlook (exchange) I use Thunderbird with a paid plug-in (to make the 2FA stuff work). It’s pretty cheap and totally worth it for me at least.
