"Auf dem Rückweg schien die Sonne, als wäre nichts gewesen, nirgends lag mehr Schnee, hier und da war ein Hauch von Grün zu sehen, ein normaler, fast schöner Tag, der, völlig unpassenderweise, versprach, dass der Winter bald zu Ende sein und der Frühling erwachen würde, und das alles war für den schlaflosen, rotäugigen Anders ein Schlag ins Gesicht."

Erinnert mich immer an die Sache mit dem Alkohol - "wie Du trinkst nicht??? Och stell dich nich so an, eiiiiner geht doch..." 😡
Jau, das geht mir auch tierisch auf den Sack, ich kenne das auch. Ich bin nicht unbedingt Abstinenzler, ich mag durchaus Cocktails & co (wobei Mocktails auch sehr gut schmecken), trinke aber relativ wenig, ich glaube der meiste Alkohol, den ich verbrauche, geht beim Kochen drauf (Rotweinsaucen usw). Sowas gilt auch für Vegetarier, die müssen sich auch immer rechtfertigen, was ich auch unmöglich finde.

Here's Tom Gauld's decision tool - enjoy.
And, you may need a bigger suitcase....

so your bios/firmware upgrade encompasses upgrading Intel AMT / Management Engine ? Is that even desirable
( Comment inspired by: https://community.acer.com/en/kb/articles/9576-guidance-for-upgrading-the-me-firmware )
Step 1: Check if your system is AMT provisioned or not. If your system is not AMT provisioned, go to Step2 and upgrade the ME firmware directly.Acer (Acer Community)

I've finished Guards! Guards! by Terry Pratchett, Narrated by Jon Culshaw.
Guards! Guards! Was my introduction to Terry Pratchett, so for me, it maintains a special position in the Discworld canon. But I also think that objectively, it is one of the best Discworld novels and a great place to start.
The world is fleshed out and the tropes are familiar to the average reader without much experience in Fantasy literature.
On this reread, I tried the new penguin audio adaptation and loved it.
I had trouble with other Discworld penguin adaptations, but with Guards! Guards! I had very little trouble adapting to the new character voices.
I learned that playing the audiobook at normal speed allowed me to appreciate the better voice acting.

Yes, Jackrum's voice grated on me as well.
In Small Gods it was Vorbis that sounded completely wrong to me, the narrator did not understand the type of villain Vorbis is.

Ukraine has sent 1,000 tonnes of wheat to Gaza through Jordan as part of a 7,000-tonne package for the war-battered Palestinian territory.
The shipment, announced by the Ukrainian embassy in Amman, is Kyiv's first participation in the international effort to assist more than two million people struggling with acute shortages of food, water, fuel, medical care and shelter.

GOP: The Dems have to stop exaggerating and calling Trump fascist.
Trump: “Get out and vote. Just this time. You won’t have to do it anymore. Four more years. You know what? It’ll be fixed! It’ll be fine! You won’t have to vote anymore... You gotta get out and vote. In four years, you don’t have to vote again.”
I'm sorry, what is he suggesting, exactly? #VoteBlue to save democracy.

Anyway.
Major Chinese banks shut off Russia.
The result? A wildly superheated Russian "war economy" is about to go critical: it's going to blow up spectacularly. Putin go buh bye.
The political instability and internal struggle for power will quickly become a very dangerous time, because there's a lot of terrorists who would like nothing more than getting their hands on loose Russian nukes.
Truly a jesus take the wheel moment folks.
Hey. Whatever.
