Swede here, I love driving, 100% love it, I don’t drive in the city unless I need to (last time I had to was three time last summer), we have excellent public transport, there very limited need to drive in the city.

My favorite roads to drive are suburban and rural roads, they are fun and interesting .

I have a 2021 Seat Leon FR PHEV Hatchback, a great little car, and I hate the massive pickup cars from the US.

Just look at a comparison between my car and a F-150:

(This was the only F-150 model that was closest to the year my car was made.)

The F-150 is insane, the bonnet is at the same height as my car’s roof.

We never had these when I grew up, but we did have these:

These are also a classic, there was always a rumor that one of the bigger kids managed to swing around the top, yet never any proof… There was also a variant that had a single attachment point at the top and could swing in all directions:

I seem to recall reafing that smart TVs have a list of default passwords they use to try and connect to the to wifi networks they find…

I can’t take an article that calls the BBC “MI6 Media” seriously, I get that there is plenty of people with good reason to dislike/hate the BBC, and using insulting names for organizations is funny in forum posts, but in an article where you claim to work with facts, you should stick to the facts.

I may call Trump “the Drumpfster” or Putin “Putte” in informal conversations, but if I am making an article about them, I will use the proper names.

If what is claimed happened, this sounds more like a reporter with a history of similar behavior working for the BBC inventing a quote, which the BBC retracted once it was found out to be bullshit.

Stuck how?

There are no border checks between the Vatican and Italy.

The Nobel Peace Prize?

The joke prize?

I am a simple man, I see UT2004, I upvote.

It absolutely might, but you should still keep an eye on the battery’s physical condition.

In general, laptops are good about keeping the battery charged properly, but lithium batteries does not like to be charged to 100% constantly.

Sweet, one word of caution though…

Keep an eye on the battery, see if you can run the server without it installed, if it starts swelling, that means it has started to become unstable, and may become a fire hazard.

Awww ):

Remind me of the cat we had when I grew up, she got a cut in her tongue while in a fight, she had the cut for the rest of her life, which was long and lovely.

Mikko is epic, 35 years at the same company, hosting talks, building a malware museum, finding the authors of the first ever PC virus 25 years later, and now hacking drones.

Yeah, Apple has built an image of hardware stability, if you want an iPhone, you will be able to get one at MSRP.

That shifts the perspective of Apple from just another company, at the whim of the market, to an institution standing against the market.

Here in Sweden we have a service called Swish, it is the equivalent to the Norwegian service (with a far funnier name) Vipps, and similar to the US Cash App.

I don’t know what the backend is using, but it is a local service that you can use in many shops.

I lost my bank card for a week and while annoying, I mostly managed using Swish.

Has she lost an ear?

You are very welcome

Good, very good.

An old Bluetooth module.

The lights tells you if it is connected, at what mode, and if there is data going through it.

The OS should get out of my way as much as possible.
