@NatalyaD @jalefkowit @jtonline I'm at a point where I'm wondering whether it might be beneficial to put Mint on my 2011 MacBook, and give it to MiL.

She already uses Firefox, so all I'd need is to make sure that's prominent and available and signed in to her account. We'll be able to remote into it if anything does awry, and I can run software updates in the background.

It has no battery, but she never moves her current laptop anyway. And it'll be a damn sight more stable than the budget Windows laptop she currently has.

@jtonline @NatalyaD @jalefkowit TOO MANY ARE ALREADY AFFLICTED WITH WINDOWS

@jtonline @jalefkowit My mother in law had to force-reboot her laptop the other day, but couldn't because she has arthritis and the stupid, artfully designed tiny little power button was too small and tough for her to push.

There were also more swans than I've ever seen in one place. Truly, a bastard of swans.

After we left Netley Abbey, we mooched over to Weston Shore, where we watched Queen Victoria sail by.

It's always kind of odd seeing her, given that I worked aboard her for two months, back in 2011.

And you #Bloomscrolling types; degerates, all.

I know what you #Mosstodon folks want, and it's bloody disgusting.

Well, the sunshine ended up being not that timid.

I've lived across the river from Netley Abbey for half my life, but never visited it until today. It's really cool. Saw a buzzard too, but didn't get a photo.

Having one of those days where I've done a few reasonably energetic things, such as unload/load the dishwasher, swapped the TV onto a new cabinet, and tidied up a little bit, and now I'm completely and utterly wiped. Zero spoons.

Going to try heading out into the timid afternoon sunshine we've got here. We're going to visit one of the two ruined abbeys that are within a twenty minute drive. Take some photos and see how the rest of the afternoon goes.

@TheBreadmonkey @Nickiquote Why have you posted a photo of Danny Trejo in response to a post about Arnold Schwarzenegger?

Up the Asda, where the gingerbread men are called 'gingerbread persons', and I, as a sensible God-fearing conservative am OUTRAGED!

How am I to know whether I'm suckling on sweet, delicious, feminine gingerbread breasts or being FORCED to perform a disgusting, perverted fellatio on a big, fat, juicy, swinging gingerbread penis if those WOKE LIBTARDS at Asda refuse to gender their biscuits‽

Email from Royal Mail: "We delivered your parcel! How did we do?"

Mate, you did the bare fucking minimum expected of you. Your entire job is to accept the parcel that someone wants to send me, transport that parcel to my house, then ensure that the parcel enters my house. That is literally your job.

Reviews are for things that cost people money to experience. I will review a meal. I will review a new record, or a new movie.

I will not review a fucking parcel delivery. Particularly not the default parcel delivery service in the UK.
