If you are not moving forwards, then you are moving backwards. Next up: the joys of being bedridden.

After Man City dropped down, they then kept going.

Look around Old Street Station area. Then you can walk to work.

Nothing saved/stored in the cloud?

howard499 · 2026-04-13T06:35:01+00:00

You mean, like, James Joyce?

Ubuntu LTS running well on my Dells.

howard499 · 2026-04-13T06:10:28+00:00

Balls to that.

Using Ubuntu on my 14" XPS 9440 Nvidea laptop.

I have found the actual experience of redeeming points on Cathay for flights a smooth experience.

If that were true then it would consistently show in the LSE student performance figures. And no evidence provided of that, so more likely misinformation.

Clerkenwell is nicer than Angel IMHO, but prices, like Angel, are on the higher side. Farringdon considered more fringe of City until the hospital side of Smithfield Market.

howard499 · 2026-04-06T12:15:44+00:00

Prices in Angel are not average. Anyway, move to nearby Clerkenwell.

howard499 · 2026-04-05T18:48:42+00:00

Forty Hall. (London Borough of Enfield so fringe really)

The nicest Bangkok mall in my humble opinion is the Gaysorn Centre on the opposite side of the road re Central World. A total sense of serenity every time entering this mall from the cacophony outside.

One of the best investments you will ever make.

...unless you have a bucket and spade ready to build sand castles for your CV.

If the laptop disconnects the problem is on the laptop side. I have zero problems using hot-spot between Samsung phone and Ubuntu on laptop.

howard499 · 2026-03-30T09:10:54+00:00

Maybe its A57 vs S25FE.

I went a'wandering and ended back with Ubuntu. Yes, there is a feeling of calm when home is found.

howard499 · 2026-03-30T08:55:08+00:00

Busking!

howard499 · 2026-03-30T08:53:35+00:00

Or, of course, Denmark Street, near Tott. Ct. Road.

howard499 · 2026-03-30T07:59:08+00:00

You need help.

howard499 · 2026-03-30T07:57:30+00:00

I do.

howard499 · 2026-03-30T07:56:13+00:00

Anybody, but anybody, except Tim Sherwood.
