    Frankly, I think that given the scenario, pre-positioning a tank in that situation probably demonstrates a considerable amount of foresight.

    That sounds SUSPICIOUSLY like something a JAG defense lawyer might say

    Those numbers don’t add up. How are they worth ten times face value? Is bluey that popular?

    Either that article or maybe another one I read says the coins are being traded at ten times their face value by collectors so yeah, maths seems right.

    Like of lot of this kids stuff it's popular, look at how much to those bloody "free" Woolworths(?) little plastic groceries they give away from time to time go for!

    What WERE their findings though? I read that link and 80% of it was talking about the "history of Venezuela’s elections"

    Only relevant bit was 5 people went to a few poling stations each and they didn't see anything odd and people seemed to be happy to vote. I didn't see them claim to have done anything that could be considered proving the elections were fair one way or another, other than no obvious fraud at the polling stations themselves.

    I tossed it onto a old PC that was struggling with windows a few months ago. It was just a Plex machine and suddenly everything is running faster, easier to use, my wife even commented that she could browse Plex faster than before and videos loaded quickly...

    Good gateway drug for Linux really.

    It happens here all the time (Killing animals on unattended properties, Australia)

    Sometimes the owner doesn't even LIVE on the property where the animals are, and the butcher comes down with "third gate on the right, the one with the two trees, we want the two pigs next the the barn done" written on a post-it note.

    Personally we've NEVER allowed any animals killed on the property without us being there but it's not unusual.

    Few steps missing, the squirming, the unexpected discovery it is twice the weight you thought it was, the pointy hooves and contact with various fleshy parts of your anatomy and catching the bloody thing in the first place.

    Honestly from a lamb-over-the-wall perspective this is very much "draw the rest of the owl"

    I stufferd a store in for my players to shop (Foundry) because it had been a while, and just grabbed a pre-built one and tossed it in...

    they spent the night planning and implementing a massive heist because one item cost too much for them to afford and they wanted it..... I had NOTHING for this (half the players beliefs on the shopkeeper, how they worked and how they could be robbed was based on some crappy random generated name and they had made "assumptions"...)

    Found out later they thought I planned it all

  • Which character should I use in a Windows/Linux directory name to place it at the top of an alphabetically sorted list?

    I use exclamations in Windows ("!!first" will be sorted above "!second" for example)

    and "I’m curious what’s the need for the folder to be sorted first that something like folder pinning or tagging"

    Not sure what "tagging" would be in a windows perspective, does it have that? and "pinning" could be using the Quick Access bar I guess which I do for folders I want access to GLOBALLY, but if I have many sub-folders, and in the context of THAT FOLDER I am interested in several more than the rest, but outside that folder I don't care less about them, I'll use exclamations so I can find them easier

    (Example, I have a TTRPG folder of art assets for maps from dozens of different sources, each with own naming conventions, and two folders !!Sorted and !Working, as I slowly go though the list to find, name, sort, discard and otherwise clean up the list so I can find what I want. If it was called "Sorted" it would be in the middle of the folder structure and a pain to find when I need it, but I also NEVER NEED that sub-folder unless I am working on cleaning up/sorting that data)

    “trying to be gritty and shocking”.

    Yeah that was our take away. Overly gory, very little of the humor from the game. My wife abandoned it after 3/4 an episode (too much gratuitous violence for her) and I probably wont both with the rest

    If you love that sort of hard core violence graphically depicted, with imaginative effects such as pushing a gun into someones head, and then shooting a hole through that (briefly) still live persons head, killing a few more people this may be your cup of tea.

    Fidonet all the way initially (At the time it was faster to write your terminal program than to load it off tape every time you started the computer. Was only like 5 lines.)

    But the with the "Internet" I was the first (I think, never saw any others) to write and release a Windows 3.1 program for Finger

    Ok wow didn't realise it was that wide spread. These were just some locals talking about stuff and he was proud they had gotton a good deal on seconds sweets. Feeding left over stuff, bread, cakes, seemed common place.

    I was horrified about the plastic but seems to be pretty normal!

    This sort of thing still happens

    I've had a chat with a farmer in Australia where they were feeding dariy cows boiled sweets (He got access to some sort container load of factory seconds, still with the plastic on, farmer wasn't going to remove the plastic from millions of boiled lollies)

    Is something like this difficult to set up?

    I grabbed a Linux Mint install, and followed this guide to install Plex on it

    It is a "desktop" install, really I know you don't NEED a GUI yadayada, but it was very easy and got my foot in the door of Linux. It's worked well for me, faster than the older Windows install

  • My wife consumes whatever media I throw at our Plex server and I'd like to stick with it (The tv's + set top boxes/remote controls are all easy for her to use and stream Plex fine) I'd grabbed an old work PC I replaced years ago, Windows 10, and tossed a Plex server on it and it's worked for a long time but recently despite being used for NOTHING but Plex, its bloated itself like most Windows machines and I found Cortana taking 90% CPU (despite being disabled via registry) and some updates failing over and over. I'd like to replace it (the software) but really no idea where to start, even the most helpful sites are just "use your favorite Unix then install Plex" or "Here are 56 perfect versions of Unix to install for your Plex server" Honestly I use it for nothing except Plex, is there something easy enough I could look at?

    Had a great deal of fun with my Walstad Earlier photo ![](https://aussie.zone/pictrs/image/8e70ae63-73a9-4e56-a9af-ca75bf4ae672.png) Current look, some plants moved over to the left, some of the “bamboo” removed since it just lost all leaves and turned into sticks with a crown of leaves sticking out of the water (Bamboo? whatever the heck it was, just called Bamboo by the store, I have issues buying plants since we are a bit remote) ![](https://aussie.zone/pictrs/image/7a782519-3bc4-43c5-b5f8-5b199046dd7b.png) Definitely wouldn’t get the Swordtails for the next tank, I just wanted something orange to offset nicely against the green, but they pop out babies every few minutes it seems. I only started with 4 or 5
