Even “young person” is stretching the definition of “young” 😂

But, yes, I grew up with metric, and I don’t particularly remember learning anything about imperial measurements in school. Other than things like miles and mph (and why do we still measure fuel efficiency in mpg, when fuel hasn’t been sold by the gallon for years?), which as a driver I’m obliged to use, I’m fully metric.

I’m very much not a kid but I don’t understand stones at all, so my weight, which I rarely bother to measure anyway, I do in kgs.

Something like this:

(I’ve probably missed something, and also I don’t think that lbs for weight is correct, should be stone)

That’s a mechanical keyboard, so you should be able to map the missing keys to wherever you like.

Failing that, PrtScr is probably on Fn+P, and apostrophes will be Alt Gr+{, Alt Gr+[ or Shift+?. The first two look like they may be accent dead keys, so try Shift+? first, or follow them with a space.

I’ve only ever owned electric mowers (actually, that shouldn’t be plural - I’ve only ever owned one electric mower which I brought back in 2007 when I got a house with a garden). It isn’t a battery one - I’m not sure they existed back then - but I will change it for one when I have to replace it as the cable’s a bit annoying.

I’d actually rather leave the grass to grow but apparently it looks untidy.

Yeah, or there’s something obviously broken but no obvious way to fix, or a spring pings off during disassembly and it isn’t clear where it came from.

So many times I’ve taken things apart to “see what’s wrong” to no avail.

I’m not sure if it works the same way, but Google Wallet uses a virtual card number as well as needing the phone unlocked. There a layer of obfuscation over using a contactless card, that I like.

Trigger’s broom.

I like the comparison with the 1972 image:

The old one looks like the colour has been turned up too high. The new one is a lot more natural.

There are a few petrol shortages in the UK I believe, but that’s mostly people panic buying. I have an EV so doesn’t affect me!

Thanks, I don’t think there was a link in the article. I’ll edit it into the description.

With my own money, it would have been some ZX Spectrum budget title. I clearly remember Fantasy World Dizzy being mine and I think I bought it with my own money rather than it being purchased for me, so I’m going to go with that.

The “it’s twelve o’clock somewhere” beer.

Single tap. I just had it again when replying to another message but it isn’t doing it on this one.

Swipe typing is on.

Gboard keyboard.

Who needs Q, Z and, erm, A, anyway? Nobody!

Literally just tapping anywhere on any editable text is causing it here. Although actually it isn’t doing it now. Weird.

I’m on 422 - 421 worked fine.

It moves the cursor bit then the highlighting just happens ending at that point instead!
