My primary school bought one of these, I thought it was a pretty cool camera back then. It wasn't the best image quality available even at the time and writing to the floppy was slow but being able to swap to other disks easily was a big thing (a stack of floppies was a lot cheaper than memory cards) and being able to just stick the floppy in any computer and see the images was a real game changer compared to dealing with camera drivers to download images.

The societal reaction though would be very different and in favour of the woman. For an example a few months ago some English tourist was in Sydney, got annoyed at some guy waving a flag around her, sucker punched the guy in the head from behind, and received one punch back plus a free broken jaw as her prize.

Now check out how it was reported - it's all about how bad it was for the man to punch a woman and the pretty important fact of her assaulting the man before getting said punch is mentioned once in passing (and it being a punch from behind with the man not aware is not mentioned at all, which is relevant because this is normally highlighted as a 'coward punch' in Australian media).

I am also not opposed to banning x links - appreciate wider feedback on this though

I would generally prefer to see a screenshot of a xitter post rather than having to follow a link to it, for both my own ease of use and for reducing traffic to their site. However I do think a link to said xitter post should be able to be posted in either the body text under the screenshot or in a comment as a way to show the source of said screenshot.

Because men are statistically more likely to commit violent crimes.

So you're saying it's ok to make negative statements about a subset of people as long as they are statistically more likely to commit violent crimes?

That's pretty rough - one breaking that quickly is annoying but could just be unlucky, two breaking quickly should definitely not happen considering they're not cheap tools.

What part(s) broke on yours? Did they replace the second one as well? I'd hope so, though I could understand only wanting a replacement to sell and get some money back at that point.

I like a properly fast boot time, but a couple of minutes is tolerable. Much more than that and it feels annoyingly slow.

What is truly annoying though is when I have to do something that should be quick but requires booting a computer on my work's network. I got back into the office once and literally had to wait 20 minutes when all I wanted to do was to print out one jolly document and go home - I guarantee you I cared about boot time that day...

What speeds are normally done on the roads you would be riding it on? Up to 50-60km/h you would be ok with 50cc, if traffic normally flows faster than that then get a larger displacement bike/scooter. Bikes are a more enjoyable method of transport than your average car but it's noticeably less fun (and more dangerous) if you can't at least keep up with traffic.

Make sure to allocate some money for protective gear as well as a bike. If you're sensible bikes are nowhere near as dangerous as some people like to make out but if something does go wrong some proper bike gear does make a big difference.

North orientation is the standard for when just browsing a map, but when in navigation mode applications usually rotate the map to match your direction of travel. If your car has a Android Auto/Carplay head unit or one otherwise capable of displaying maps it will also likely default to autorotating the map when driving even without a destination input.

This behaviour does make it easier to distinguish relative directions to your position (roads on your left as you drive will be on the left on the map and so forth) but also takes away an easy way to orient yourself on a scale broader than the limited section on the screen.

Finally, someone with a good grasp of the proper ratios when comes to house space vs garage/workshop space. Chuck in a few exterior windows and I would be fine with something like this.

I would be checking how much weight above the living space can handle though - I suspect it might not be up to suitable floor loadings for workshop usage.

It's what the Americans call coriander leaves. If you haven't come across that name either it is indeed a herb.

The cover art is real, but the words have been changed. The real book is The Sword of Bheleu.

It already is for some specific rail freight, iron ore haulage in Western Australia being one example. Rio Tinto has been running them in WA since 2019.

The Sydney Metro is also driverless, albeit a passenger only line rather than freight.
