Any of Brewbakers of Onaway's ads, ever... VO talent yellin' & pukin' all the way.

It keeps everyone honest. So, while they all pretend to offer pay at the pump as an option, it really do...

Re: Add Another to the List

People here would be constantly driving off without paying. In fact that’s exactly what was happening and it’s why we have to pre-pay. I don't believe that. It doesn't happen in Canada and Canadians are no more or less honest than our friends in America. What colour is the sky in your world, Cliffi...

Re: Windows 10 Issue

The main problem with Windows 10 is Windows 11. Microsoft does not want to support 10 anymore. They just want you to buy 11. If your computer is new & fast enough to meet the so-call 'technical requirements'; you already have WX; and you don't mind giving up some features that WX has: WXI is a free...

Peter Eckersley, co-creator of Let’s Encrypt, dies at just 43

Let’s Encrypt wasn’t the first effort to try to build a free-as-in-freedom and free-as-in-beer infrastructure for online encryption certificates, but the Let’s Encrypt team was the first to build a free certificate signing system that was simple, scalable and solid. https://nakedsecurity.sophos.com...

Re: The Agony Of Mississippi

I was an instructor in my Union's education program for a number of years. I never once told anyone how to vote. That was never part of our curriculum. Good for your organization. Make of it what you will. With miles of lakefront in MI's Cheboygan County, the UAW's nice little education center is a...
