I'll write it out a hundred times - sorry, sir.....

John D Clark's boook "Ignition" covers the destruction of a thick cement floor slab by chlorine difluoride spillage during rocket propellant tests (basically it is such a strong oxidiser that it causes stuff to burn that has already burned.....). That would indeed be impressive, when viewed from a suitable distance...
It's a bit like Reason (from Douglas Adam's DIrk Gently, not the music software named after it by Propellerhead).
Start with the answer you want and the software comes up with an impeccable route to that decision, but you aren't quite sure why. Which is why the protagonist's Bank Manager agreed to the loan for the sports car...
Unfortunately Gravity-Sync (a script to keep multiple Pi-holes in sync) is no longer supported with V6, which makes running >1 Pi-hole not quite as simple as it used to be.
Hopefully there will be a way to sync the settings (mainly manually-added domain blocks) before too long!
Very happy with it though - have it running on an old Model B and a Zero WH (and would use QNAP Container Station if it wasn’t such a RAM hog even with no load…)
If he ever found anything, the only proof he would need is if the Private Key to his BitCoin Wallet allows him to access it.
The Proof would be him moving the coins to another Wallet, which (assuming you knew his BitCoin address) would be evident from the BitCoin blockchain.
I think it may even be an 18th Century system....
The UK tax year ends on 5th April because it used to start on 25th March (also known as one of the 4 "Quarter Days"), but in 1752 we moved from the Julian to the Gregorian calendar, and 5th April is 11 days after 25th March. Then, since 1800 was NOT a leap year, it was moved to 6th April to accommodate the extra day and it has stuck there ever since.
Completely agree and I am immensely frustrated with having to tweak W11/Edge when updates are applied (e.g. new, spurious CoPilot "features"/interference, tracking etc.).
However, isn't the flip-side to turning off the telemetry on feature usage that they don't know what is used and what isn't (assuming that feature usage information is not covered by the unskippable "basic" telemetry that you can't disable)?
Oracle have done no significant investment in Hyperion functionality for 10+ years apart from Tech stack updates (including Essbase 21C). The thought was to push people to FCCS/EPBCS which are only now starting to become competent products for some Hyperion clients (who haven’t already jumped to OneStream/Tagetik)
They bought Hyperion/Arbor because their homegrown EPB (Enterprise Planning and Budgeting) solution was going nowhere fast and did not tempt anyone away from the Express-based OFA/OSA solutions.
Hyperion is like a Lancaster bomber - a million pieces flying in close formation (possibly less so now that the Brio stuff has been deprecated from FR) and I say that as someone who has been well-remunerated for many years for keeping Hyperion infra fed and watered….
There are amazing deals on first-generation Audi E-trons at the moment (more so on the 50 model due to the limited range). You can get a 3 or 4 year old one for well under £20k
I was tempted, but the insurance costs puts me off, and also the (potential) maintenance costs, since a £67k car still needs £67k car parts fitted when required.
