I've recently bought some studio monitors to replace a hifi I was using and they didn't come with grilles. Seems to be a difference between studio kit and the hifi world.

Not being predictable by us does not mean they offer free will.

The preconditions are so precise that you'll never be able to get exactly the same results from trying to do the same thing twice - you'll never be able to do the same thing twice. But that doesn't stop cause and effect determining the outcome. There is no place where free will can enter in to any equation at any micro or macroscopic level and just having unpredictable microscopic events doesn't give you control of your own destiny. This is totally separate from your own perceptions of having choices you make. Personally I find myself doing things I didn't consciously choose to do. Once you start noticing them you might find more and more.

Eastern Ukraine isn't an ideal tourist spot at the moment.

EndeavourOS on my desktop and laptop. Works like a charm. By far the happiest I've been with a desktop distro.

On my server VMs I'm running Ubuntu Pro because it's absolutely impeccably stable, Pro is free and I like the idea of having the option of not upgrading them for 10 years.

All running on Proxmox. I have a few appliance type VMs like opnsense and 3CX and they're nice and stable too.

Everywhere? Where will we put all the existing things? You can't turn the whole world in to just toilets, that's taking the piss!

I was once not spotted whilst wearing a bright fluorescent orange cycling rain jacket and standing 6'5" tall in an office of suits.

I'm with you. The infantilism of films is so depressing

Just because a DE looks sparse doesn't means it also uses less resources. In imagine KDE would actually run well as it doesn't need all the bells it offers and is actually a well written performant DE.

I mean I can't pick one really. Parabol/Parabola by Tool ranks pretty high

(I told you I can't really pick one)

My camera (Nikon Z6) has a lot of features I never use and probably never will. Bit it's still an amazing camera that I can use to take photos with that I couldn't with other Nikon cameras I could afford. So it doesn't matter if it has a weird feature I don't use when I regularly make use of a feature it does so well. Paired with an old 70-200 2.8 I have taken a lot of photos I would have previously not have dreamed possible with my older camera setups.

There's 3 things that really stand out for me that I would say made a massive difference to my life:

  1. Cordless screw driver. Bought the day after building a flat pack bed with a crappy screw.driver that just shredded my hand. Thought it was frivolous at the time, but I've used it so much since. It's light, small enough to fit in my pocket and good for 90% of DIY tasks.

  2. Tassimo coffee machine. Bought it 9 years ago, use it every day. Nice quick easy coffee. What's not to like.

  3. My first DSLR camera. It was a Nikon D50 back in 2005/6 and it sparked my interest in photography to this day. It gave me a hobby I can take lots of places and do it alone or with others. I never loved the D50 camera itself, but I did get some really nice shots with it
