His voice isn't much different!

I watch his videos because it's nice to have an insider view of what was the formative years of Microsoft's ~~assimilation~~ creation of a common office workspace. The anecdotes are deliciously 90's, the openness is refreshing, and the implementation detail is quite interesting.

My other half likes the videos because he has that quite monotone voice, with quite an even canter and the odd lingering pause that can send her to sleep.

Win win.

Obligatory Wendover video, he's better than that HAI guy.

It's worth the 18mins of your time, even if it's just to identify that nobody's immune to advertising or propaganda, and what the negativity bias is.

Alright, I'm going to be a real pain in the arse here and throw some edge cases at that idea - not because I'm trying to be a cockwaffle (I can manage that all by myself), but trying to straighten out my understanding of these things...

In short, what criteria does the data have to meet to make it immutable, and can that be changed in future?

Birth certificates are brilliant for establishing time dates and places, but what if someone changes their name or gender partway through life? Is there a function to amend the original blockchain entry, or is a new one created that supersedes an old entry in the ledger?

I have products prescribed to me with Fluticasone in them. Common trade names are Beconase or Avamys or Pirinase.

Good luck!

I can see the value in that, basically nature's insulation - though I'm not an architect nor an engineer, but that looks like a flat roof - so would overgrown grass or sodden soil put some crazy weight and pressure on the structure?

Fair play, I love how the community has taken on remastering duties over the years.

Fallout New Vegas is basically a different game with the QoL mods installed, and Descent was actually enjoyable on modern hardware with Rebirth.

I never thought I'd say this but I'm actually quite looking forward to playing Sonic 2006 as Project 06.

Intelligence is domain specific.

I need this on a plaque above my desk phone. It's perfect.

Ah sorry, I wasn't clear - I meant the way the issues were sensibly and rationally outlined!

yeah yeah yeah but how can we get the rage about sensible and rational issues like that???
