Those numbers don’t add up. How are they worth ten times face value? Is bluey that popular?

Either that article or maybe another one I read says the coins are being traded at ten times their face value by collectors so yeah, maths seems right.

Like of lot of this kids stuff it's popular, look at how much to those bloody "free" Woolworths(?) little plastic groceries they give away from time to time go for!

What WERE their findings though? I read that link and 80% of it was talking about the "history of Venezuela’s elections"

Only relevant bit was 5 people went to a few poling stations each and they didn't see anything odd and people seemed to be happy to vote. I didn't see them claim to have done anything that could be considered proving the elections were fair one way or another, other than no obvious fraud at the polling stations themselves.

I use exclamations in Windows ("!!first" will be sorted above "!second" for example)

and "I’m curious what’s the need for the folder to be sorted first that something like folder pinning or tagging"

Not sure what "tagging" would be in a windows perspective, does it have that? and "pinning" could be using the Quick Access bar I guess which I do for folders I want access to GLOBALLY, but if I have many sub-folders, and in the context of THAT FOLDER I am interested in several more than the rest, but outside that folder I don't care less about them, I'll use exclamations so I can find them easier

(Example, I have a TTRPG folder of art assets for maps from dozens of different sources, each with own naming conventions, and two folders !!Sorted and !Working, as I slowly go though the list to find, name, sort, discard and otherwise clean up the list so I can find what I want. If it was called "Sorted" it would be in the middle of the folder structure and a pain to find when I need it, but I also NEVER NEED that sub-folder unless I am working on cleaning up/sorting that data)

“trying to be gritty and shocking”.

Yeah that was our take away. Overly gory, very little of the humor from the game. My wife abandoned it after 3/4 an episode (too much gratuitous violence for her) and I probably wont both with the rest

If you love that sort of hard core violence graphically depicted, with imaginative effects such as pushing a gun into someones head, and then shooting a hole through that (briefly) still live persons head, killing a few more people this may be your cup of tea.

Fidonet all the way initially (At the time it was faster to write your terminal program than to load it off tape every time you started the computer. Was only like 5 lines.)

But the with the "Internet" I was the first (I think, never saw any others) to write and release a Windows 3.1 program for Finger

Is something like this difficult to set up?

I grabbed a Linux Mint install, and followed this guide to install Plex on it

It is a "desktop" install, really I know you don't NEED a GUI yadayada, but it was very easy and got my foot in the door of Linux. It's worked well for me, faster than the older Windows install

What on earth does THAT mean?

What part of this do you think is hard?

Not hard... essentially worthless however....

The articles are saying "Here is a list of almost all known versions of Linux, these are good for you to use" when you query what the best option is.... Hardly narrowing down anything. Likewise saying "Use your favorite.. then install the product you want to use" is also useless information if you are asking the question I was.. I have no favorite obviously since I know nothing about it.. and OBVIOUSLY I am going to install the produce I just asked about installing...

The pages I was looking at answered the question "How do I install Linux?" by saying "First, Install Linux"

Not to say there aren't better sources, but all the first ones I found where along that theme

Walstad tank. Needs to be neatened up a bit. Pulled 3 swords and some Java fern out to give away but no one locally wants them

Interesting site but not without flaws, first recipe I looked at was essentially just "use a off the shelf bottle of curry paste to make a curry and cook some rice. Cooking time 315 minutes"

Gonna check through it though, seemed to have a nice variety, with a lot of cultures listed

In the linked article they are arriving randomly. It takes 10 minutes per customer and they arrive every 10.3 minutes.

I see the same thing. My language is definitely set to English
