Very impressed with the Greens - four seats is double what was expected. Great result for them.
The Lib Dems have also come out of this really well.
Avatar is a lemming in bed because this account wasn’t intended to be used except for creating communities… and then my instance announced it was closing.

I was going to put Bedfordshire in brackets next to that, but I forgot. I knew it could cause confusion!
I think the rest of my communities haven’t seen activity lately, so I’ll have to post in them first!
They were good before (and please correct me if I’ve got this wrong) EB bought them and did a “reverse takeover”. Since that point they’ve been going downhill.
Maybe you’re looking for !folklore@mander.xyz
Why? Because they’re mine and they need more love.
Do you ever get that thing where the more you look at a word the more it looks wrong? I’m getting that with “would” and “could” after reading this thread.
True, but the Switch was a big rethink so retaining backwards compatibility would have been tricky.
The 3DS had backward compatibility with physical DS games. The Wii U had backward compatibility with Wii games (the Wii could also play GameCube games). No surprises here - especially if they are going to call it “Switch 2” I’d have been surprised if it wasn’t compatible.
3DS cartridges had an extra notch on them to stop them being inserted into a DS. Probably we’ll get something similar here or there will be some software mechanism to stop attempts to run the new games on the old system.
Yeah, same. I set it up as it looked like the best way to control my inverter - I wanted to set it to charge from the grid when electricity was free, and discharge during saving sessions without having to do it manually. I then expanded to trying to calculate how much charge I needed overnight in cheap rate based on the solar forecast for the next day…
Anyway, I now have everything on it and keep thinking of things to add.
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.
Yeah, that’s the sort of thing which worries me. I suppose if it’s a recipe which doesn’t need precise measurements it doesn’t matter.
Depends how many sugars. At least three heaped teaspoons should qualify, two is borderline.
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.
