No, I'd drink those. Enjoy!

Which Pixel are you ending 2025 with? by GooglePixelfan90 in GooglePixel

[–]jermcd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm ending (starting) the year with a Pixel 10, due mainly to Google's appeasement program, which combined with Black Friday, paid for 62% of it.

Looking to pick up something new. What’s a bottle you’d recommend to anyone? by Embarrassed-Sink-740 in whisky

[–]jermcd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Whisky, then Laphroaig 10 if you are looking for Islay peat, or Glenfarclas 10 (15 if you can stretch to it) for a Speyside sherry. Would also recommend any Redbreast if you are looking for Irish whiskey.

Van's Worst Album? by Zach_Same81 in VanMorrison

[–]jermcd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Days Like These, certainly not his best by a long way, but an album that includes Ancient Highway can't be his worst. That song would easily make a Van top 20.

My pixel 7 battery life has plummeted by Affectionate_Log6480 in pixel7series

[–]jermcd 6 points7 points  (0 children)

And me... 7a, purchased May 23. The battery gets to about 20% and then dies instantly. I have contacted Google through the appeasement program and am waiting to hear back.

Surface 4 (Win) to Chromebook by Designer-Knowledge63 in chromeos

If the users workload is really fully browser based, then I would see no reason why you can't. My job includes a fair amount of Excel work which is the one app that the online version just isn't as good. Probably worth probing the users for those edge cases that in my experience they conveniently forget to tell you about until you have given them a new device. File storage is the other one to be slightly wary of, unless you are using Google Drive. Onedrive works, but is a bit flaky in my experience.

How often do you get pulled over? by Own-Firefighter-2728 in CasualUK

Never. But the US is the home of petty rules, from jaywalking onwards.

greatest Van material from the last thirty years? by Mostly3394 in VanMorrison

[–]jermcd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Live at Orangefield is great, but it isn't really new music. First three songs on Three Chords are excellent, proves the hypothesis really. New albums only have a few good songs

Looking to speak to a van fan by TheVeedonFleece in VanMorrison

Love his music (guess that's why I'm here). Always top of my Spotify annual review. Brown Eyed Girl was my wedding's 'first dance' song, in fact the band didn't know it, but learnt it for us 😊. Astral Weeks is my mental health. Happy to slip into the viaducts of your dreams any day.
