One step forward and two steps un-forward.

Well, you can configure only manual updates with notifications but I'd prefer automatic updates except not on day zero. At least on Win 1X Pro, on Home I think not.

I have Linux everywhere except one computer that needs to run Windows. Can I configure it to delay updates by, say, two weeks?

Dude what? I'm just talking about a topic that you introduced by making assumptions of owners of dogs that we have exactly one photograph that has exactly zero context. That is totally uncalled for.

This looks like normal dog clothes to me. A sweater is necessary but quite sufficient for a grey hound or a whippet because of their coat but dogs are normally without shoes in the winter unless the snow is particularly harsh and icy.

I think this is all a knee jerk reaction because people think it is posh when it is not.

I don't understand why people are upset that these dogs are well cared for. Here in Sweden it is cold a large part of the year and it is common that dogs without a winter coat wear a jacket or overalls. My doggo loves the cold and does not need one but most of his sighthound friends do.

From the 80s-90s, my guess would be some proprietary format of conferencing or intercom that has not existed for thirty years or more.

I think it is fair to assume that if you get electronics branded by a candy manufacturer, you will not get any sort of quality electronics.

Obviously they shouldn't be a fire hazard but still.

Repo Man comes to mind.

It's very useful for dog owners when you can't give it a proper shower. Dry shampoo and then brush it out.

Pro tip; do it outside. It's a mess to clean up indoors.

I think it sounds like something different. Lucid dreaming is being in a state between awake and asleep to stay in first person control with the brain in unrestrained creative mode, while this is about training the brain to make up desired interpretations after waking up from full sleep mode.

Oh this is interesting. I've recently come to terms with the amazing plasticity of the brain. So if the brain assembles a narrative only after the flood of random stimuli, it should be possible to train it to use certain baselines for what narratives to assemble.

Any neurologists and psychiatrists and other brain specialists in the house?

For nerdy nerds like us a torrent client isn't anything complicated. Regulating up and downstream bandwidth to personal preference isn't complicated. Managing torrents to seed and not isn't complicated. For your Average Joe though...

I haven't watched Mad Max one in twenty years, but I'm pretty sure the backdrop is rising international political tensions and the ending suggests a global nuclear war.

Not daydreams but I have scenarios that I explore in different narratives I make up to ease myself into sleep. Currently it's a sci-fi one. They are not intended to be stories for anybody else and I have no ambition to write anything down.

Sweden. Some people are having decorations up already but normal is from advent. Christmas is celebrated the eve of the 24th with dinner and Santa visiting in person. Dinner is commonly a Christmas ham and other regional or family traditional dishes. 25th is a slow day when kids are playing with their new toys and the adults are relaxing after the build up until Christmas eve. The evening of the 25th is quite common for young adults that are visiting their family home in a town where they no longer live to go out to the local bars and get shitfaced with people they used to know, possibly air their teenage grudges or crushes and get in a fight or laid depending on the scenario and outcome.

Same here with ml and I got banned from subs and by mods because I am just a filthy leftist and not a full on totalitarian cultist. Signed up on some different other ones. Learned some time ago that it is possible to filter everything and everyone from ml and my Fediverse experience has improved bigly.

It's not funny and sad, it's hilarious and deeply depressing.

My understanding of space engineering is that getting rid of heat is a bigger problem. Makes me wonder how much of efficiency of Stirling engines are lost due to extra weight and complexity for heat exchangers and radiators.

My dog is very happy about cold weather and crispy frozen leaves on the ground. I'm happy about my dog being happy about cold weather and crispy frozen leaves on the ground.
