Nice to have the option I guess, but I’ve yet to encounter a platform migration tool that didn’t make a complete mess of something, not to mention the fact they transfer however many years of cruft along with everything else.
It’s like moving house and bringing all the dust with you.
I find it’s far easier to just have a clean slate and manually transfer data that matters.
Have always had artificial. My parents still use the same tree they used when I was a kid. When my wife and I bought our own place we invested in a good quality artificial and I expect it to last just as long.
Real trees are a nice idea but I’ve seen far too many horror stories about them causing fires, and even if they don’t go up in flames they still drop needles and insects everywhere. Why take the risk?
Financial success is a poor measure for the worth of artists of any stripe. If anything, it has an inverse relationship.
Also UK and similar, except our council has five categories:
Food waste is collected every time, but the others alternate each week between either general refuse + paper or just mixed recycling.
If you pay for garden waste collection, it gets picked up once every two weeks during ‘gardening season’, or once a month during the winter.
We also don’t get wheelie bins - you have to provide your own general refuse container. Many people don’t bother and just leave loose bin bags out, which sometimes results in foxes scattering rubbish all over the street. Recycling goes in plastic crates and food waste in a caddy, which are provided by the council.
UK here. Pretty similar to the US in most respects, I think? But we have Christmas pudding, the queen’s king’s speech on telly, and Boxing Day on the 26th.
My wife is Belgian, so in our house we combine the otherwise conflicting traditions of when to open presents: most stuff gets opened at midnight, in the European fashion, but then we save the smaller ‘stocking filler’ gifts until the morning. Best of both worlds!
Hallucination
Perhaps of note that the pronunciations of some penny amounts are not intuitive, e.g.
In all cases, the ‘pence’ is commonly squished together so it sounds more like ‘pns’ (like in comeuppance).
Obviously you’ll want to start with absolute basics like mouse and keyboard navigation.
Beyond that? Maybe something involving a ‘treasure hunt’ to learn about navigating files and folders, renaming files, and copying vs. moving them.
Anecdotally, I’ve heard lots of kids coming up now really struggle with the concept of file systems, so it’s definitely something worth teaching early.
It’s on the album Meddle. It’s a 2:15 blues song with a dog howling throughout, which is exactly as bad as it sounds.
I maintain that Cake has never released a bad album, but Race Car Ya-Yas on Fashion Nugget is absolute crap. A festering boil on the face of an otherwise unblemished body of work.
The correct answer for Pink Floyd must surely be Seamus?? How that song ever got made, let alone included on an album, is beyond me.
Based on experience: play video games for too long instead of eating, watch movies they don’t normally enjoy, and forget to go to sleep at a reasonable time.
All in the same bowl?
‘Boring’ is a lazy assessment that says nothing. Dig deeper. Why do you think a given thing would be boring? What about it specifically do you think you won’t enjoy?
Once you learn to start asking yourself those types of questions, you can start looking for things that actually interest you, rather than dismissing everything out of hand.
Do you still support Valve? They practically invented the modern cosmetics and loot box economy and CS has one of the most exploitative implementations still in operation.
Fortnite hasn’t had loot boxes or anything even resembling item gambling for years. Everything is not only optional/cosmetic but also clearly priced. Of all the exploitative games to use as an example, it’s one of the least problematic.
No, because I’m right and everyone else is either stupid or trolling.

You forgot rule 5: If you can’t think of anything insightful to say, be sarcastic and dismissive instead.
So many people here (as on Reddit) seemingly can’t resist the urge to drop an oh-so-clever zinger so they can watch the updoots roll in with zero critical thinking skills required. It’s tragic.
Usually it’s combined with rule 1, so they’ll be reacting to something in the title without realising the article explained what they’re griping about. Confidently incorrect, always.
