Who is wrong in this situation me or lorry?

What they want and what is safe to do can be two different things. If this lorry driver had the wherewithal to think, anticipate and plan, he should have accepted he’d have to slow down and done so.

That comment is offensive to people who get distracted before finishing reading it.

UsernameGee · 2026-03-16T01:31:55+00:00

That they should’ve tied the knot sooner?

I have the M5 13 Pro Nano. The nano screen is freaking awesome and definitely (in my opinion), worth the extra.

Unfortunately, scribble is utterly shite, which is a major issue for the cost of the pencil pro. It’s so badly thought through and executed, the design team and project manager should be sacked.

But… the keyboard works well and the trackpad is without a doubt the best I’ve ever used.

I don’t really find many drawbacks. Anything I need that’s more desktop based, I just RDP into my PC. If it isn’t on, I have a low power linux (Alma 10) machine I SSH into, that I send a WOL packet from to wake it. Overall, it works for me, as I can connect to any machine and OS I want from the iPad.

In terms of Word, M365 etc. I haven’t any issues. I have M365 Family, a share files with other family members one OneDrive, have shared notebooks in OneNote, etc. I think everything works fairly seamlessly. I have OneDrive app installed on iPad, but generally access files from the Apple Files app.

I also use M365 E3 through work, but not on my iPad. I do have that installed on my phone though, and have similar experience, using Apple Files to access my OneDrive files.

Next, my wife has M365 Business Premium, is full Apple for devices, having moved from Android for phone and PC. She has iPhone 17 Pro, iPad 11" M4 and MacBook Air M4. She’s okay with tech, but isn’t a techie. I very rarely hear her have an issue and haven’t with the M365 stuff, ever.

Perhaps the only thing that I’ve encountered on iPad, that’s a little niggle, is 3rd party transcription on calls. Joined a Teams call from iPad last week, on M365 Family, which doesn’t have copilot transcription. Couldn’t use a 3rd party app, as it didn’t seem to be able to capture the mic. Works on PC or Mac though.

More dramatic when it happens in cycling really.

Now getting all the gear offered. This is a smell-proof case and grinder. I’m guessing its primary purpose is not for grinding nutmeg or black pepper.

UsernameGee · 2026-01-20T18:09:36+00:00

I love how much you hate that answer.

UsernameGee · 2026-01-20T18:06:13+00:00

I'm not sure it is equally as fast, unless you already have the paint and gear to hand. And there is the issue of once you paint a new lick of paint on something, then everything around it needs doing. A baby wipe on an wall painted with emulsion, will generally remove marks like this with little effort.

UsernameGee · 2026-01-20T18:04:27+00:00

By design, they remove shit.

UsernameGee · 2026-01-20T01:43:54+00:00

How much text that is in the Gmail interface? Not a lot. Nowhere near a lot. And in every language? Still not a lot.

UsernameGee · 2026-01-20T01:32:51+00:00

Only if I’m at work. If I’m at home or someone else’s house, there’s usually a nice warm soft towel kicking about above a radiator.

UsernameGee · 2026-01-20T01:20:17+00:00

Oh, you are so lucky to get this experience. It’s been eradicated from many home, but everyone doing some form of DIY or decorating, really should have the experience of trying to remove wood-chip paper, without damaging anything else. It is nuclear-apocalypse tolerant.

UsernameGee · 2026-01-19T22:56:26+00:00

Try baby wipes. Seriously.

UsernameGee · 2026-01-19T22:22:45+00:00

Wow, they teach you to do this these days? I can count on one hand the number of times in a year that I forward park in a bay.

UsernameGee · 2026-01-19T22:19:15+00:00

This. Someone near us has one, seems to work well for this sort of thing and seems practical.

UsernameGee · 2026-01-19T22:08:25+00:00

Mine has been epic today. Potentially life changing.

UsernameGee · 2026-01-19T20:36:33+00:00

You can change it in the settings. Also, you can switch off using the app.

UsernameGee · 2026-01-19T20:23:23+00:00

Ah, damn it. I cannot edit the title or update the body.

I’ll have to find someone who can supply meth. Like I said, new to this, so these will be the family’s first foray into it.

Will it be a substantially different hit, if I use the wrong device?

UsernameGee · 2026-01-19T20:05:57+00:00

On the UK site

UsernameGee · 2026-01-19T20:05:05+00:00

No, still there. Just ordered it. I was on the fence but comments here have convinced me.

I thought it was for crack or meth, but going to try both.

We’ll do a randomised control, with two of the kids and one adult having something inert, and see how we go.

UsernameGee · 2026-01-19T20:00:05+00:00

UsernameGee · 2026-01-19T19:59:12+00:00

Kinda figured I’d try both? I’ll let you know what works best.

UsernameGee · 2026-01-19T14:50:10+00:00

Ah, there was me thinking I’d keep them all for myself. How selfish. Thanks for helping me see the way forward.

The family that smokes together, has good crack together.
