I've been waiting for ~~this~~ break-free playback for a long time. Just play Dark Side of the Moon without breaks in between tracks. Surely a single thread could look ahead and see the next track doesn't need any different codecs launched, it's technically identical to the current track, there's no need to have a break. /rant
Can someone get Lord Sugar drunk and have him express a similar view about the US?
"err, hic the unites, uniting, united states should separism, seapar, separate the head of state role from the,, ,uhh,,,,, head of government. They can have gonger, er, congress appoint a cereminimum, er ceremonial head of state with reserve powers to dissolve congress..... burp"
That's far too subtle to even register on Trump's feeble brain cell.
AKA the Jason Bourne school of editing.
I worked in local government that used Unix workstations for GIS (Graphic Information Systems) - mapping of the local government's property boundaries and many other layers. The DB was held on a DEC Alpha, and it was all very pricey, albeit very good at its job. ESRI ARCGIS, etc
When the time came to replace, they moved it all to Windows. The workstations were beefed-up PCs running NT4.0 and the DB was on a server with NT 4.0 server. DEC was gone by then, absorbed into Compaq, Alphas were discontinued, and no-one wanted to migrate to SUN or HP.
It would certainly accelerate the development of language. How many new words will be invented, or existing words subverted, to serve clandestine communications and slip past the filters? Steganography, anyone?

Mac users really struggle to understand the concept of
For me, it was trying to explain to a Mac user that she should have a separate profile on her Mac for work vs. personal
She'd convinced her employer that she could work from home using her own Mac (the office was all Macs except for the video production suite), and he said OK. Didn't ask me, of course. Despite me saying a long time ago when someone else floated the idea, that it was poor practice from a security viewpoint.
Then three days later the call came - "I can't access work files". So I remote in, she's got links to her personal iCloud Drive directories somehow mixed up with the work Google Drive.
I started to explain about using a different profile for work and just got a blank stare.
"You log off your personal profile and log into the work profile"
"How do I do that?"
So, how many children does he have vs. how many times he had to try?
Sex once = pregnant is a gift given to very few. Most people have to try a few times, so it raises the question of "just how gay?"
Is there a ratio of gayness?
2 attempts = 1 pregnancy means "slightly gay"
4 attempts = 1 pregnancy means "somewhat gay"
8 attempts = 1 pregnancy means "in the closet"
16 attempts = 1 pregnancy means "gay"
32 attempts = 1 pregnancy means "flaming"
Can we have a decision on this from the gay high council?

It's not difficult to block the mining and telemetry. Pihole, a few registry tweaks, a few scheduled tasks disabled and life goes on.
Folk see nothing wrong with spending hours tuning a Linux distro, but they object to doing the same with Windows?
FWIW I use vanilla Debian for everything other than what I'm required to use Windows for.
