So, oddly enough, I rarely ever back things up. I will back up things that I absolutely cannot afford to lose, but other than that my general thoughts are to leave my data in the hands of the HDD gods.
Sometimes it’s good to have an unexpected clear out… But only sometimes.
I’m also aware that this could entirely just a “me” thing.
Reminds me of Dianne’s line from Bojack Horseman: “I can’t believe this country hates women more than it loves guns”
In an episode where there’s a huge uptick in women carrying firearms, instead of helping to make society a better place for women, they just decide to ban guns instead.
For anyone playing Monopoly soon: house rules almost always make the game WORSE.
To play a good game of Monopoly, any rules that are imposed should be in place to help remove money from the game. Rules such as “can’t collect rent from jail” or “fines collect at Free Parking” only serve to prolong the game and make it more annoying for everyone involved. Properties shouldn’t be skipped when not bought: auction them; that way the properties sell quicker and the game moves faster. Also, don’t waste your time going around the whole board once before buying properties.
Playing Monopoly the way it was intended is quick-paced, brutal, and only lasts a couple of hours or so.
Then when confronted they’ll insist that they’re not racist, that they’re a melting pot of friendship whilst using the classic line: “Some of my best friends happen to be black!”
Sadly I noticed the typo then fixed it. Then I saw the funny side myself and reverted the fix 👍
Yes I went on the site because for some inexplicable reason my email my business account decided it wanted to put my girlfriend’s name as my account name (presumably it did this after she logged in her work account not long ago), and now everyone keeps referring to me by my girlfriend’s name 😂
I wasn’t sure how to turn it back (turns out the outlook app lacks a LOT of features. Who knew?), and one of the search results linked to Microsoft’s help page.
Ended up logging in via the browser to fix it. Stupid Microsoft.
I was listening to radio the other week when they were talking about companies dumping chemicals into British rivers. The effects that they were talking about sounded awfully familiar to anyone who has ever heard Alex Jones open his mouth.
They’re actually putting chemicals in the water that’s turning the frogs gay! (kinda…amongst other things)
You know you’ve fucked up when you’re making Alex Jones sound sane.
