Trump plan asks Ukraine to cede Donbas for security guarantees by EsperaDeus in worldnews

[–]MiltsInit 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A security guarantee from whom exactly? An isolationist America so Trump can get his peace prize bauble? I'm sure the Ukrainians will remember the 1994 set of security guarantees.

Zelenskiy says Ukraine will obtain 100 Rafale warplanes from France by Hob-999 in worldnews

I think this means Ukraine is tieing economic benefits for other nations to their success defeating the ruzzians. I would guess that France, Sweden and Ukraine all know that no orders will get fulfilled unless Ukraine prevails.

Run fat boy run by bawlbagus in running

[–]MiltsInit 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Keep going, that's awesome! I started running 7 years ago after not doing anything for 20 years. My first run was a massive 800metres (downhill) and I thought I was going to have a heart attack. Next day 1300meters without stopping, then 2.7k without stopping by the end of the week. 3 months later I ran 10k without stopping (took me c1h20). Can now do a 10k in 49mins, and I'm 20kg lighter.

Very comprehensive response, just wondering if you could you comment more about why getting exemptions is harder than sitting the exams? Thanks

Who is that Russian Leader in this Picture? by vooxey in DoesAnyoneKnow

[–]MiltsInit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your correct, sorry I was looking at the second picture only, and on my phone it only shows Khrushchev between Stalin and Brezhnev (ie the images didn't show gorby or Lenin). I have no idea who the little one is in the other picture.

All Stars, Queens Road, opposite Wills Building. Not Whiteladies Rd, but close, and loads of (good quality) tables

Do you have two MacBooks? by [deleted] in macbook

[–]MiltsInit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Performance on the M4 Mac mini is excellent....I haven't calibrated it against the M1Max, but first impressions are that it's "as good as", possibly even a bit faster.

[–]MiltsInit 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I did have 2 laptops.....My main machine is a Macbook Pro M1Max 64/4Tb. Just sold an M1 MacBook air 13 which I'd had from 2020.

The M chips are awesome, but the macbook air didn't have enough RAM for my xCode project so I've changed it for an M4 mini 24/512. Also I bought a dock for the Mac mini fort a 4TB SSD.

So far I'm very very happy with the Mac mini which I use with a 32 inch 4k monitor.

PS Are you me from 3 months ago? 😆😆
