@Clifford We're quite lucky in Northumberland and this is a particularly good spot - 800m of calm deep water. About a 10 mile drive unfortunately, but at our house the river is still tidal, occasionally a bit murky, plus you risk being harassed by curious seals! 🤣

Trying out Pop!_OS on a Lenovo ThinkPad X380. First impression is that it's looking good. Lenovo Dock works fine, Touchscreen is ok. So far, so good. 😁👍

@kev @garritfra Looks very similar to the method I'm using. I've occasionally tried looking at F2L tutorials, but can't find one that makes any sense to me... I think if I could understand that technique, maybe I'd save a little time just by dealing with any (luckily) conveniently oriented pairs - and falling back to the beginners method for the rest because I don't have the inclination to learn any complicated algorithms! 😂

@kev @garritfra Must admit that I lost interest in the 4x4 as soon as I discovered edge parity! 🤣

@kev Meanwhile, masterpieces like Gangnam Style are languishing on a mere 4.3B views...

@mike @Mundon Always leave fifteen minutes early on a Friday... that's just "Office Space" 101. 🤣

These prayer apps share your personal, location and device info with everyone... except god. Who presumably would have the data anyway?! 🙄 https://www.buzzfeednews.com/article/emilybakerwhite/apps-selling-your-prayers

Stumbled across this low-code game development platform via a link on FreeCodeCamp... looks cool, wish I had more free time! 😉 https://gdevelop.io/

From an advert on #NewScientist ... I didn't bother to follow the link, obviously. I'm just going to jam a toothpick into my USB port and say goodbye to adverts for ever. 🤔

@Gina But somehow I doubt if there is going to be a lucrative niche for my feet thoroughly battered by climbing shoes and running shoes! 🤣

What kind of an ignorant, uneducated imbecile would even credit 'Imperial' with the time of day?! 🙄 PS: Petrol around here is almost £8/gallon.

@Clifford Exactly. I always told my school teachers there was no point learning times-tables beyond 9x... they never listened! 😉

"A Yorkshireman by preference..." Spotted this memorial bench at Mount Grace Priory in North Yorkshire, a 14th Century Carthusian priory. Don't know who he is, but love the inscription.

@kev It's sad, had to do a double-take when I first saw it. Nice sentiment though, I thought: Yorkshireman and steadfast friend.

@kev I'd been thinking it was some kind of modified Spaceballs reference. "Never underestimate the power of the Quartz!" 😉

Cateran Hole earlier today. It's a 30m gritstone cave, reputed to have once been a hiding place used by smugglers. Sadly, no contraband remains! #Northumberland #Cave

@stannard Don't worry about learning more words... just sing the same line over and over. Hyper annoying for them!! 😂

@stannard I'm not sure anyone should be voluntarily exposing themselves to GB News 😂 you're a braver man than me!! But I think this word could be a possible portmanteau: "a teflon coated poncho". 😉

When Hadrian's Wall became Hadrian's Fence...!! 😂 This view is seen on the descent from Whinshields, looking towards Crag Lough. It's a great Whin Sill vantage point. #Northumberland #Photography
