Wrong game, that’s AOE I. (although it is a taunt in AOE II)

I’ve not read the article yet, but I’m going to assume it’s affecting my sleep because I’m reading about how it’s affecting my sleep at 04:21 instead of, you know, going to sleep. Just a guess

… said the stubborn person refusing to upgrade.

I was still on Windows 7 until about four months ago when I needed to upgrade to 10 for work. I totally agree and understand your point

I live in a rural area and know a lot of farmers (meat, dairy and veg), none of whom are wealthy. Several don’t own land, but have to rent it instead. Those that do own land tend to be asset-rich but don’t actually have cash (as in, they own land and farm equipment, but they can’t sell it because then they wouldn’t be able to keep working). Maybe it’s different in other parts of the country, but around here people are struggling. We also have the issue of banks and other large corporations buying up land to plant with timber as carbon offsets, rather than putting in work to reduce their carbon footprint.

Since when are farmers wealthy?

In case anyone actually wants to know a couple of reasons

A) It’s not fair that some people pay and some don’t. (Of course it’s also not fair that some can afford $70 on a video game and some struggle to buy food)

B) If everyone would pay then we’d all only have to pay $50 each, lowering the price for those that are paying $70 at the moment. (Whether developers would lower prices or just make more money is another question)

Polluting vehicles are not the same as people… you know that, right? The reason for the ULEZ is to keep emissions low, not restrict tourism

For you Americans reading this, 1.3m is about 4’3"

You can take what you’re given and be happy /s

I didn’t know where this city was, I was just making a pun off of “highest”. Would’ve been more sensitive if I’d realised. Sorry :)

If they’d all stop doing drugs maybe they could’ve planned a bit better /s

Actually true though, in roughly half of all cases. More if you count cloud cover as not being blue

I am being sarcastic. We have a brown person as our prime minister, after all

I wish people would stop going on about Brexit. It was what the people wanted. Literally every single brown “”“person”“” has left the country and we don’t have any EU overlords shoving their rules down our throats. Every other aspect of our life bring worse and facing food shortages is a small price to pay

I’d assumed you’d read my other comment. When I do have both drives plugged in at once, Windows always does a disk check on every startup, which takes a long time and is completely unnecessary. Just switching which device I boot from isn’t a good solution for my computer

Probably could, but it’s not worth the time or effort. I switch so rarely that even if it only took five minutes to configure, that’s still more time than I spend switching in six months

I can’t leave them both plugged in because Windows keeps complaining that my drive is damaged and it needs to run a disk check. The reason I don’t set up grub or something else properly is mainly laziness. I use one OS for a project that lasts several months at a time so I don’t switch between them that often. It’s just not worth the time or effort to save two minutes every few months

I wouldn’t recommend it, but my current setup is I reach into the computer, unplug one SSD and plug in the other. Not the most high-tech dual boot but yeah

Hope this helps!

Old houses aren’t necessarily a problem size-wise. The main problem in my town is people buying old houses, splitting them into four or six of the smallest flats imaginable, then renting them out.
