You could be in the right to shoot an unlawful attacker. Although you will also likely get shot yourself that way.

Lots of companies have it as the one and only option. Worked so well with internet explorer for them, I believe.

You forgot the (classic)

I wash them on saturdays, usually each week but sometimes every other week. The ones for showering get dried quickly after use on the upstairs handrail (bathroom is kinda small). The hand towels have a small heated holder in the bathroom, so they don’t get a chance to ripen as well. Face towels after each use.

Replacement only if they get thin or holey. And then they become cleaning rags.

Im sorry, I thought this was America.

I would still take it over 11.

Nomen est omen

Blackmailer: „why are they not bowing before my insane demands? They must be mad“

I would like there to be a law that mandates a „fuck off“ button in general. Not just „yes, please steal my data now“ or „maybe later“.

Whatever you do, do look at a few different options. Some refurbished computers can have huge price differences between sellers.

Fringe. Started as a clone of the X-Files, then devolved into the most random, convoluted alternate universe and time travel madness. One should have seen that coming:

You have an air extractor (like in the kitchen) and a fireplace? That’s a recipe for a disaster. Hope you have a CO detector.

What’s the problem really? You already gave them 24/7 access to your home.

Everything and anything to get your login and data. Fuck off, Microsoft.

„No i haven’t. Walk me through it from the start, please“ could have very well saved that performance.

But I guess that was not in the script.

Luckily part of our body is the brain and some brains are very good at finding solutions to our body’s problems. Break the cycle by getting a decongestant spray, ibuprofen and a neti pot.

„With the added trust of Microsoft“ 😂

I am still looking for a tool that would capture live streams on YouTube and can automatically resume when connection problems occur. yt-dlp handles the streams well, except it often needs to be restarted for longer running streams, which requires constant attention. Does this „fire and forget“ yt-dlp or does it keep watch over it?

To me the vague „I’ll pay extra don’t worry“ would be a red flag. Too many entitled shitheads around to whom that would mean a $5 tip and that you have to get it right to their imagination, not specification. And then haggling over the prices of the things you bought for them afterwards etc.

„Please tell me the cost“ on the other hand shows me seriousness. They want the owner to consider their request and return a quote. As a vacation rental owner myself, I would be more than happy to produce that, maybe with a request for a payment up front that covers the more expensive items and an additional day for the preparations.

As long as they pay up and don’t cause any damages, I wouldn’t care if they are billionaires or just a couple of people who had to save money for such an event.
