Hardly embarrassing - you don’t seem to understand light hearted banter clearly….yes I was playing on Murphy/Muphry.

Geez straight to name calling though - classy 🙄

Have a nice life.

Well then use this as a teaching moment and elaborate then?

I live in a country that uses the King’s English, not the American version so please enlighten me - I do enjoy learning.

But don’t say there are an amount of errors without even trying to quantify them….given the burden of proof rests with you.

“God safe us” - irony right there especially when critical of someone else’s use of an acronym perhaps one’s own grasp of the English language should be a little better!!!

God save us ….

I just read it myself, as a “mature age” student at University in 2024 I have often sarcastically asked some of the 18-21 cohort in the class if they need the old person to show them how to use a computer when they don’t even know that a “program” for a PC/Mac is just another word for “app” even the teachers look shocked when you hear most of the class nod in agreement about not knowing what software actually is and that it can be installed without an “App Store”.

I think the thing is most people just see computers and tech as just another appliance the same as a microwave and to know anything more than “turning it on and off again” is just seen as far too nerdy or a waste of time when they can get on the internet and read their influencers on social media or just watch YouTubers instead….

But they are the first to complain when “the internet doesn’t work!!”

That blog could have been written today!!

Guessing some of the commenters have never dealt with Telstra here in Australia - it’s already reported that these telcos just flat out never tested any phone that they haven’t sold - phones that up until now were actually working perfectly fine (and even have the same model handset being sold by Telstra/Optus/Vodaphone etc) suddenly disconnected.

It is purely laziness on the part of Telstra and the rest of them and they are using it as an excuse to get people to buy their handsets instead - have not seen one of the “offers” of zero cost replacements either…..

Telstra are just corporate scum and this could have been handled a whole lot better but then again you only have to look at the shitfight that we have here called the NBN - a national government funded internet network that the telcos will charge you more than the rest of the developed world to access and nowhere near the speeds, level or service or quality as seen in the rest of the world…..

Nobody here in Australia is really surprised this was a massive cock up and anyone who is mustn’t have ever heard of Telstra then…..

One of those three will be on Tony Abbot’s shortlist for being the next “Minister of Women”

As someone who works in aviation regulations, this just means they have updated the regulations - they have not greenlit any operators or any actual vehicle designs - that is still many years away given that manufacturers and operators would still need to seek approval to actually operate - that’s all still undecided - it’s just the framework is now there where it was not before.

Really? So I could use my Wacom Cintique and my 2024 versions of Adobe Illustrator and Adobe Animator on Linux then? Because I use them to make a living and if I cannot use them on Linux easily then there is no point.

As a former Linux user from the early 00’s the biggest hurdle was art software and convincing Linux users that Adobe software means more than just Photoshop…..

Ah yeah fair enough that makes sense. Cheers!

Is Crunchyroll actually beholden to US law if they are a Japanese owned company?

Here in Australia the moment someone in the US cries foul it is waved away because simply not applicable to the laws of this country regardless what US federal law is broken, the same way all these other international companies wave away breaches of Australian law 🤷🏼‍♀️

I guess it would come down to the employment contract and if he was employed by a Japanese company or a US owned one?

Not sure which is why I ask.
