Build her a server, install it at her house, set up some sort of automated DVD ripping mechanism so that she can digitize her own collection, wait for the inevitable tech support call, then go spend a Sunday afternoon fixing her server and digitizing her collection for her while she makes you dinner. You get to call it “quality time”, and you get fed while keeping her happy and her collection as far away from yours as possible. Win/win, everyone is happy.
Yeah that’s cool and all. But now build that into the front of this, and I’ll really be impressed.
I never disputed it. I said I don’t care. They can pronounce it however they want. In regular conversation with people around me, I’ll call it whatever I want.
They released a joke video, as evident by the singing and the fact the kids still said it “wrong” at the end. I think they are very aware and understand that people will still call them Soos.
I live in a place where people call things whatever they want to call things, and when enough people call that thing by that pronunciation for long enough than it becomes the default pronunciation. Which is exactly the same as where you live.
IKEA in North America pronounces it I-Key-Ah in their commercials. That’s directly from the company itself. If they are OK with accepting the different pronunciation of their own name, then why am I expected to say it the European way? That goes for Suse and Asus as well, since they’ve been called Soos and Ace-sus for years before they decided to “correct” everyone.
Non-Anglophone countries are free to exist and are free to pronounce things however they want. I would be looked at as if I had two heads if I pronounced those things like those non-Anglophone countries. It’s about not wanting to be treated like I’m a idiot just for pronouncing things the “proper” way.
I don’t care. It’s Soos. It’s Ace-SUS, not Ah-soos. It’s I-Key-Ah, not E-Kay-Ah. These are the way everyone around me says these things for as long as I can remember.
I suppose you’re also a billionaire too?
Tell us you’ve never been in a relationship with a woman without actually telling us you’ve never been in a relationship with a woman…
That sounds like an Apple product to me.
Yet again, dismissing and reframing the event…
The conviction still has to be decided, yet the action has been judged to be sexual assault which is what brought the charges in the first place, and the judge had already decided the jail time involved. Try to keep up.
If that’s sexual assault, that also should be punished with jail, remains for the court to decide.
It was sexual assault, and the punishment was jail as decided by a judge. But here you are, arguing against it despite having no authority at all…
For the unwanted sexual assault, and the concerted effort to dismiss and reframe the event afterwards that was designed to silence her while never taking responsibility for anything.
Like seriously, the charges are in the article. And here you are, trying to dismiss and reframe the event afterwards…
That’s a Priority 4 Severity 4 ticket. I wouldn’t bet on it being completed until sometime during the next epoch.
I learned a long time ago that the manufacturer doesn’t matter much on the long run. They all have a bad model occasionally. I have 500GB Seagate drives that still work, and some 1TB drives that died within a year. I’ve had good luck with recent WD Red 4TB drives, but my 2TB Green drives have all died on me. I had a some of the Hitachi Deskstar drives that worked perfectly for years when no one would touch them because of a bad production run. I currently have a Toshiba 8TB that I had never heard of before, but seems to be rock solid for the last year.
Pick a size that you want, look at what’s available, and research the reasonably priced ones to see if anyone is complaining about them. Review sites can be useful, but raw complaints in user forums will give you a better idea of which ones to avoid.
Yet the stock price is still going up. And still no one is talking about it except you. No one cares. Even I forgot about this.
Seriously, just let it go. You were wrong. That’s not a bad thing unless you make a big deal about it, like you are right now.
Not everything is an attack. You can interpret things however you want, but you’re the only one that has to deal with the consequences. I wish you good luck…
But how do I avoid feeling that horrible sense of emptiness? It’s not done until it’s 100%…
