As the new tablet has begun to acquire cobwebs, and the 8 year old tablet already starting to show a little wonkiness, went ahead and transferred the data with Smart Switch. Went fairly well, although the program can be a bit picky if things are not plugged in the required sequence. 🙂
Fun fact, the micro Usb 2.0 to USB C cable purchased for the…[Read more]

Yep, such actors get a rep as leading lights in their own unique way – typically when they score much coveted roles on offer like Lamp Post #1. 😛
Yet, Shallow Grave gets a fairly positive rap from th eviewers, so on the list – as does the (unrelated) 1994 movie. 🙂
Have you seen A.I. Artificial_Intelligence? Much investment in time and resources…[Read more]

Yep, attempting to convince a 240 lb butcher wielding a meat cleaver his mince sucks is arisky at best. 😛
There are some good bike trails in Florida, pity they do not co-exist with main roads very well. Problem the world over. 🙁
In the Florida Keys Heritage Trail, there’s “obey all traffic laws.” Over here bikes on trails aren’t considered as…[Read more]

Indeed, and as Gordon Gekko might have once said, “Green is good!”
Talking of bones and teeth, here’s a nice sound

Sounds like a robotosaurus would make the perfect villian in the next Transformers movie! 🙂

Never judge a magazine by its cover, go to the back page and check out the cartoons first! 😛

Having a major bitch about our national emblem minced, cracked teeth are no fun at all.

Neither do they focus on Ley Lines, Te lapa, Fairy Circles, creepypasta, or things that go bump in the night!

Yeah, the 45 minute episode formula, even the original X-Files was no more than a bunch of lightly serialised single episode stories – ever come across anything that spanned more than one episode?

We did mention Starwars – so came across…[Read more]

Ooh, missed that, or misread it. Or they have changed the wording- here’s plenty of mods for Palworld just loaded up today. A couple for yesterday though. 🙂
Yep, because Nintendo never chose to make their content available cross-platform, it’s sour grapes when someone else “does it.” 😛

Is it possible for the captive Mewtwo to escape? It seems that once he was used by Giovanni, so he is one to watch as well!
Nexus won’t host content for Palworld. The level of hubbub in controversy is sacling up, there’s the question of ripoff, do you think that’s fair?

The Children Act is a classy piece bringing to sharp relief the folly of adhering to rules of religion, and, spoiler alert, it has a rather depressing outcome.
OTOH, the opposite effect tonight after the screening of Dodgeball: A True Underdog Story, a cracking cast and script (highlights).

The extra…[Read more]

Might be best to consider open source alternatives like Omnivore or Wallabag where there’s a facility to port data over. How big is your database? Some cross platform rtf files can have a tendency to bloat – is it possible to convert them to something else?
Not quite the same thing though – certain sites which provide personal favourite sections -…[Read more]

Checked the IA for the time, no dice – even posted the links to them, the only response was from our ever present friend Mr. Nokandu.
At first spec FindMyPast has quite a few nice features albeit somewhat intrusive, did a search for a name on their site while logged on, and promptly in came an email entitled ” We’ve discovered something just for…[Read more]

The forums migration at CPanel still burns hot in some memories, the post formats were not carried through in every case, and a few posts that were made around the time of migration were lost forever!
Signing up with FindMyPast probably won’t help as much as desired, even with a subscription. Their free services include:

The series currently screamed is Bang!, comes with a slow burning drag on for a bit too long kind of vibe, watchable though. There is a bug in the streaming channel where the option for (English) subscripts doesn’t work if there is multilingual content, fortunately there is not a lot of (English) mumbling so we are good.
The critics were rather…[Read more]

A name for the mouse? Heck no, these might come in handy for a list later: The mouse fairy, Tydium Night-rat, Mouse-in-pad, De-tail E-lab-o-rat, House of Shining Rodients!
These days they won’t need to, as there is a webpage. Is there life after death, and was there life before 1937?
Talking of the out-there and mysterious, someone posted an SCP…[Read more]

😀 So I went to the markets to purchase a second hand pet. A sign in the stall said, “Buy one, get one flea,” another sign said “Flea bargaining permitted”, another said “An itch in time will save you mine”. The betting stall opposite had a sign “No scratchings” which did not ease the oncoming pruritus.

😛 New tech innovations = New square pegs for old round holes!

There was always something about the whole Star Wars brand that came across as rather dinky, if not hokey. Might have been the overplay of the disco version of the theme at the time:

It was all right as far as disco-dent themes go, the…[Read more]

He looks great, at least, yet the dithering effect on FB as a result of attempting to enlarge the image is not complimentary at all. Zuck, make yer rendering more endearing m’dear (alternate lyrics to Have Some Madeira M’Dear):

Agree, Enceladus is quite small (310 miles in diameter, and cold externally), so likely not a habitable home for billions of starving humans. Spectacular views from the surface3 though. 🙂
Amazing capture of mouse tidying thins in a farm shed:
