English discoverers be naming fruit like
  • Ananás & Abacaxi refer to different types of pineapple. In Portugal we use both. In Brasil, Abacaxi is used because it's the type they have and with time it came to mean all kinds of Ananás.

  • Dems Name and Shame Companies Paying Executives More Than They Pay in Federal Taxes
  • This is to pressure public opinion so that the remaining members of Congress and Senate vote to enable the ultra rich to pay their fair share.

    It's not meaningless theater, it's politics, and effective political action.

  • Ha ha take that tea drinkers
  • I've always liked tea and coffee, since I've first tried it as a kid. It was not an acquired taste for me at all. Without sugar or milk or anything else. I don't understand the opposite, why do people fill stuff with sugar.

    Alcohol, however, has been more of an acquired taste and in my 40s I still don't enjoy it that much.

  • Anon knows what he likes
  • Restaurant fatigue is a thing for sure. I think most people who are experienced travellers know this. That's where grocery stores and supermarkets help but also global fast food chains. You know what you're going to get and you'll get it fast.

  • Climate crisis with Poison Ivy
  • The thing is that we've gone through multiple generations of new owners each thinking a bit more than the last. Now they know how to appear decent while continuing to exploit earth, humans and other animals.

    And people keep voting for their puppets.

  • Computer freezing when connecting external monitor w/ solution

    Recently I have had an issue that whenever I connected an external monitor to my laptop it would just freeze. This is on an Asus laptop with nvidia graphics.

    The only way I managed to solve it was by following this solution https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/all/windows-10-reset-external-monitors-settings/b3a53cef-e54f-4410-b09e-6846fa297a3f

    The solution was essentially deleting these reg folders HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\GraphicsDrivers\Configuration HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\GraphicsDrivers\Connectivity HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\GraphicsDrivers\ScaleFactors With this, all configuration is deleted and when you connect a monitor you may need to reconfigure if it's extended, duplicated, etc.

    Hope this is helpful to others.
