  1. Well, that was weird - I've just seen Stuart Damon on The #WheelTappers on #TPTV - *singing* ?! (Well, sort of).
    Did William Gaunt ride a unicycle?
    Did Alexanra Bastedo play the spoons?

  2. Does anyone else here regularly watch #TheFootageDetectives on #TPTV ?
    I'd never heard of that 'special' backronym for OMO mentioned my Mike and Noel. How very interesting.

  3. #ComputerNames #JustWondering

    Just wondering, what did you name your computers? And is there a theme in your naming scheme?

    I mean... The thing that pops up when your computer connects to a network, or when you go into your terminal.

    I decided to go with philosophers myself.

    My main desktop is named Kant.
    My new main laptop is Seneca.
    My old laptop, used in the kitchen, is named, Plato.
    My server is named Socrates. (Partially because I have no idea what it's on about half the time)
    And my backup NAS is named Diogenes. (Cause would be better off in a bin if I didn't need it)

  7. #JustWondering Is there a reason, other than pre-digital printing workflows, for #Adobe to put so many, often fairly centrally important, parts of #Acrobat functionality into #Preflight?

    I always find it most counterintuitive and disruptive, a kind of failed non-visual skeuomorphism. Why aren't these components just regular parts of preferences or normal menu items?

    #Disclaimer I no longer use Acrobat myself.

  12. I'm having breakfast across the street from McDonald's. Right outside McDonald's is a tent and a #police vehicle parked next to it. The tent's canopy reads:
    PNP-CIA #Bayanihan #PublicAssistance Station

    That's nice, i think. #BetterThanZero. Though I wonder: do people know about this temp station* that they would know the nearest place to go to for help? 🤔 #JustWondering

    Or maybe it's more for having cops stay near areas where there are no actual stations, for faster response.
