That seems like a huge inefficiency, DOGE should eliminate it.

That depends on if it is a dayfine or not.

A fine of €500 for speeding will only really affect poor people, 30 dayfines which value is dictated by the wealth of the individual is a better system.

Myst III was made by Presto Studios in collaboration with Cyan, it does have a slightly different feel to the other games, but it is not bad

Sadly, until three things happen, this is not likely to change.

1. LDAP for anything other than Windows needs to get way better, support for GPOs as extensively at Windows has is a requiernment.
2. Software, you can have the coolest OS in the world, but as long as it doesn’t have normal third party applications, it is not suitable for office or government work.
3. Technicians, you need to have knowledgable technicians to support the OS, without them there is no way any company or government would ever use it.

This is where the EU could step up and run an alternative.

I don’t agree that these are an eyesore, they are not as pretty as a tree, no, but disgustingly ugly? Nah.

Seems like a decent idea if you have an over developed location where you can’t plant a tree.

Myst.

Riven.

This is the first time I am hearing about that site, I have just not been in the scene much… could it be a temporary problem?

While I am no fan of cryptobros, I gotta admit, that is an effective stratergy

I have very few friends, but chatbots are not the answer.

I have an excellent backpack, a Thinktank BackStory 15, I do not blame it in the slightest!

At this point, we are talking about the storage media, not the camera.

Yay, I get to store 7 photos on one 250 drive!

I just need to bring a sherpa with me to carry 215 disks for a normal outing, should only weigh 11kg

And now, these days my camera would require 20-30 floppies to store a single image

Thanks, I’ll let Steve know!

I have four private planes I’d like to fly.

The Diamond Air DA62 - Just a gorgeous plane!

The Grumman Goose - with a water landing

The Cirrus Vision SF50 - A super tiny jet!

A Dassult Falcon trijet - Trijets are cool!

I would love to get to try the whole jet experience, but I am not interested in doing it regularly.

I came as close as you can while flying normally during the start of the pandemic.

I am an IT guy and was tasked with flying to one of the company owner’s country retreats with a new computer and set it up to be ready for the summer…

I get to the airport, the main airport of Sweden, Arlanda, at 07:45 on a normal weekday.

Attached is a photo of what the check in hall looked like…

Anyway, I get checked in and get to my gate, there are a few others there, my flight is called, I walk down and board the transfer bus, and the doors close behind me…

I am the only one on the bus!

I get to the aircraft, a Fokker F50, no company markings at all…

A cute flight attendant welcome me onboard saying that I can pick any seat as I am the only passenger…

And we fly away, it was super weird yet really cool.

You don’t need a special app on you computer to access the photos in thr photos app on you iPhone.

If you connect an iPhone with a cable to you computer you can access the photos in the photos app directly.
