I'll be revealing my nationality with this one, but Wheatbix and Milo (chocolate malt usually for milk drinks) is something apparently no one else I've met has.

Before I moved away from dairy entirely, I couldn't stand the taste of plain cow's milk and adding Milo helped with the wheatbix severely.

Edit: it is AI generated, completely missed the genAI tag on the Adobe Stock website, and [4] is not a ton like I thought, it's 307kg

It's listed on Adobe Stock photos[1]

I did find other similar photos[2][3] so it looks like it's an actual thing that exists. Actually found a listing for a 1 metric ton roll of it[4].

From the FAQ of stopkillinggames.com website

Q. Aren't you asking companies to support games forever? Isn't that unrealistic?

A: No, we are not asking that at all. We are in favor of publishers ending support for a game whenever they choose. What we are asking for is that they implement an end-of-life plan to modify or patch the game so that it can run on customer systems with no further support from the company being necessary. We agree that it is unrealistic to expect companies to support games indefinitely and do not advocate for that in any way.

I thought from the headline that it was just a downgrade to Business Standard, no this is to Business Basic! That's a huge yikes, it's so much harder to be productive in those web versions.

I honestly would not be surprised if users work out installing LibreOffice et al. so they can still have a desktop app experience because of this move.

The anecdote at the start of the article is insane; "I didn't hit you, otherwise my sensors would have gone off. You rode into me!"

Outside of that, the statistics in this article are very eye opening, especially as someone who has to ride their bike along an unprotected bike lane on a major highway just to get into town if I don't want to use the car. 38 deaths / year is a lot less than the ~115 for pedestrians, but considering how many more people walk than ride, those odds are still pretty terrifying to me.

And speaking of that car, funny the article outright says "If you're in a Mazda 2, you're not coming off okay [against a collision with an SUV]" because my daily driver is an early 90s Mazda 323. It's always felt unnerving to drive it alongside large cars, especially as it's so old it doesn't even have *an" airbag or ABS.

I hear you, and I'm sure others do too, even if they don't reply back.

I'm not sure how to take this post, whether you're looking for some direction on where to go next, if you're just venting about your current situation, or something else.

Regardless, you've reached out to someone somewhere here on Lemmy and that's great. Maybe someone else here will comment some great advice specific to you, but otherwise I would highly suggest you find some free service to help if you haven't already.

I'm not sure where you are in the world (and I don't expect you to divulge that), but a good start might be a debt helpline. Australia has one, and I've been fortunate enough so far not to need it, so I can't speak for how good or bad they generally are but I don't see the harm in trying.

If you've already tried reaching out for help and you're still both in this situation and clearly stressed, don't discount all help options because the ones you tried didn't work out. Outside of public services, even asking friends (especially older ones) for advice would be worth it. Even the lady across the counter you regularly shop at. Don't dump it all on them but just ask if they were in crippling debt what would they do.

Like with all my devices, I will try to set a wallpaper that I took, usually from a trip. Each device has its own wallpaper to differentiate them and to remind me of different places I've been.

Here's my lock screen where I took a photo of a small roadside garden while I was in Hervey Bay, Queensland.

That's about as 'judging a book by it's cover' as it gets.

Ultimately OP isn't trying to sell it to you, they're just saying that for them, they've been happy with it.

And hey, if you choose your distros based on their name, I'd like to see you sell that idea.

To actually answer your question, it's likely this dinghy has an aluminum floor or structure, and that 'bollard' would be an anchor tie-off point.

I wouldn't know much more than that and I'm sure I've used some terms wrong, I just know that my father's Naiad dinghy is built this way.

I'm sure you get asked this a lot, but why is your username backwards?

Kind of. They're actually trying to avoid this according to the article:

"The company says the content served to bots is deliberately irrelevant to the website being crawled, but it is carefully sourced or generated using real scientific facts—such as neutral information about biology, physics, or mathematics—to avoid spreading misinformation (whether this approach effectively prevents misinformation, however, remains unproven)."

I'm gonna beat the same drum most people beat here, you know it's dystopian when you need the manufacturer's permission to be "let" delete something from your device. This criticism equally applies to Android devices with locked bootloaders.
