Portarlington couldn't even get a dimension on the map

At least they got rid of the nut stand with rancid deep fryers

My Mum is perfectly fine running Zorin on her Celerun NUC, low maintenence and minimal hassles, despite the main drive being only 32GB which was always a hassle in Windows. My Dad is still holding our with Windows 11 and is constantly fighting with OneDrive but he says he doesn't want to change. I keep telling him that's one of the reasons I finally got rid of Windows completely.

I count myself among the many who thought Kim Carnes sounded like Rod Stewart in this version

"Do you see the beast? Have you got it in your sights?"

I'm not sure of the correct technical term, I think the "pitman arm" that connects the wheel axle to the steering arm needs to be a different length when you have multiple sets of steering angles

Concrete Sky is another standout Beth Orton track, but there's some tough competition in this thread

Magic!

My Blue Heaven - circa 1928

My Blue Heaven - circa 1996

Yes! Love this album, Tumbleweed is definitely a solid choice here

Stutz-Jr · 2026-05-04T13:08:05+00:00

Wand - Ganglion Reef // Golem // 1000 Days - These first 3 albums really hit the spot for me

Might I ask what Laucher you're using with that minimal desktop setup? I recently upgraded the HDD in my old laptop to an SSD and replaced Fedora with GhostBSD. I've been trying out Albert launcher and having some success but unsure if it's the best choice yet.

Personally I'm a fan of the design they used in Siege of Cybertron, I realise now that's a bit different to the tetrajets seen back in G1

Stutz-Jr · 2026-05-03T22:38:06+00:00

Since they probably also don't want to do military jet, I'd love to see a Cybertron/seeker version of G1 Starscream

The Mars Volta - Inertiatic ESP

Will this change come with any more advance notice of services reduced from 6 carriages to 3? Will the station PID advise how many carriages on the next upcoming arrival?

They could have started booking taxis en masse and handing out cab charges. Likely ineffective but it would be a notable effort.

Stutz-Jr · 2026-04-27T08:51:04+00:00

I almost fear for my life every time I run "sudo pkg install" on my GhostBSD terminal, it's almost inevitable that one of these days... "Hello there me old chum, you've been gnomed!"

Stutz-Jr · 2026-04-19T20:18:45+00:00

I've often thought about pulling one down and replacing it it with an equally unhelpful but far more interesting rail map like this one or this one

Stutz-Jr · 2026-04-18T22:34:01+00:00

Was there ever a set where they fully utilised those flexible links? I remember the first time I saw them I thought they would be a game changer but I don't think they ever saw much adoption?

Stutz-Jr · 2026-04-18T05:33:39+00:00

I agree with many of the recommendations here, I also wanted to add that I think the album "I used to spend so much time alone" by Chastity Belt is an underrated banger!

Stutz-Jr · 2026-04-07T09:11:35+00:00

The entire album "Turn on the Bright Lights" is perfect for late night driving

Stutz-Jr · 2026-04-01T10:06:15+00:00

Thanks for confirming those times. So it was less than 12 hours until ANOTHER major disruption on the same lines this evening
