He's going to fake his own death to get out of this, isn't he?

Thin base, pistachio, rosemary, and green pesto base (no tomato). For topping honey, thyme, and goats cheese.

I still run ubuntu on my main work desktop and will likely do so until I replace it with a new one as I cannot face rebuilding it at this point in time. I like its broad support, its ease of install and use, but its becoming increasingly annoying having to disable all the enforced decisions the maintainers make, such as snap, ubuntu pro ads and so on. My fear is at some point it will not be reversible

Obviously people were taking screenshots of films and then stitching them together to make gifs for entire 2 hour films, so this is all about stopping piracy! /s

If it runs QMK I would port to vial over via any day of the week, cannot stand via. Granted I need to run the app when I want to adjust the key map (and only then), but it removes the need for WebHID or any similar problems. I have been able to replace my custom mapping and macros then compiling my own custom QMK firmware and uploading it to the keyboard workflow with live editing of the map and macros.

If you cannot charge at home or somewhere else cheap I really wouldn't bother at this point. UK we are slowly rolling out charging via lampposts, which will address the 30% of people who don't have off road parking in the UK. We just need to speed up the roll out and make it a requirement for landlords to support renters installing chargers.

If you can charge at home and have an EV tariff then the savings are significant in the UK. We put between 400 and 500 kwh of charge into our EVs every month at a cost of 8p per kwh, so less than £40 a month. We get an average of 4 miles per kwh, so approx 2000 miles for £40 per month. Even assuming 50mpg for a petrol ICE that would be about £280 a month, significantly more if petrol goes back up again.

Most rooms in my house each have at least a handful of different, indirect lighting solutions. I could pay an electrician to wire them all to a single mains switch, but then I would need them to come back whenever I want it changing. It would also be more complicated to have dimmers and set programs for different times of the day to to adjust the lighting to a number of presets.

I could just have the one or two overhead lights that these rooms came with, but that's just an unpleasant to look at experience to my eyes all of the overhead lights got replaced with ceiling fans that have no lighting that come on when the room is occupied and over a certain temp.

You walk in the room, a bunch of lights and may be a fan come on at the right lighting for that time of the day, then they go off at a suitable period of time. I even have all my garden lighting coming on via motion despite some of it being a separate 12v system that's battery and solar powered via a 12v zigabee multi channel relay.

Also worth pointing out that Mazepin offered more money for FI than Stroll yet the administrators decided Stroll was the better long term owner for the company and sold to him instead, in a remarkable common sense over profit decision. If Mazepin had succeeded in purchasing FI then Stroll would have likely stayed at Williams.

Hozelock adjustable long spray lance, absolutely unfit for purpose, disposable garbage that broke after 3 months.

Last refund was a nightmare as it was a purchase from Amazon and outside their 30 day window, so initially they did not want to accept the return and directed me to the manufacturer. Hozelock just refused to engage, and directed me back to Amazon, endless loop. After going round this loop I then complaining to Amazon for a solid 10 minutes and they eventually agreed to pay for pick up of the item then refund when it was picked up.

Replaced it with a more expensive Dramm lance that every part is user replaceable with available spare parts, and much less plastic components.

Its the same for films, without Robbie and Gosling would Barbie have done half as well with no name actors or even worse AI generated actors? I am sure Gerwig brought positive attention to the film from her name as well. Name value is important and as Kevin Hart and the Rock are finding out if you don't spend maintaining it properly its quite easy to lose all that positive association.

I did mention Lando really needs another DNF from Max, which is basically what he needs, a Lando win with Max scoring zero to make it more achievable. However the chances of Max scoring outside the points is about as rare as him having another DNF this season, or him not winning another race all season long, that would be quite the win less streak especially in such a topsy turvy season.

I am not confident of that happening as Red Bull seem to have finally accepted that they went in the wrong direction for car development and have made some good steps to fix it and have a month to work on further fixes.

It's not impossible that Lando pulls this off but it requires that Merc and Ferrari don't take even a single race win from him, and Max and Oscar don't either, oh and no dnfs. It's just really unlikely with how this season has gone. He really needs max ro dnf at least once to make it much more likely.
