Same trouble here with the new coffee machine, after a few cups of coffee it gave up with all kind of errors on the display. Nobody knew how to clean it, as there was no user manual only an unreadable installation manual. So after a week it was goodbye to that machine and a new one was purchased.
A tip: always keep some instant coffee at hand

Quote: instant coffee You mean the coffee like substance that you mix with hotwater?

Do I detect a bit of irony in your question?

Just a touch!

This movie script reflects the situation accurately
"...
You know, in my day, when you wanted to make a cup of coffee you just had to boil the water and strain the grinds. Now it seems like you need a PhD. Dad, you have a PhD. That's a juicer.

Here's another nice quote: Quote: He was my cream, and I was his coffee - And when you poured us together, it was something

So they released the winners of the Nobel prize in literature today.
As usual I haven't a clue who they are. And it's probably about as good as usual.
So allow me to introduce my suggestion for best literature instead :
BEFOREHAND: close door, each window & exit; wait until time.
open spellbook, study, read (scan, select, tell us);
write it, print the hex while each watches,
reverse its length, write again;
kill spiders, pop them, chop, split, kill them.
unlink arms, shift, wait & listen (listening, wait),
sort the flock (then, warn the "goats" & kill the "sheep");
kill them, dump qualms, shift moralities,
values aside, each one;
die sheep! die to reverse the system
you accept (reject, respect);
next step,
kill the next sacrifice, each sacrifice,
wait, redo ritual until "all the spirits are pleased";
do it ("as they say").
do it(*everyone***must***participate***in***forbidden**s*e*x*).
return last victim; package body;
exit crypt (time, times & "half a time") & close it,
select (quickly) & warn your next victim;
AFTERWORDS: tell nobody.
wait, wait until time;
wait until next year, next decade;
sleep, sleep, die yourself,
die at last No, I don't have a clue who wrote it originally.

It seems everybody is so impressed that they forget to react.
Even Griff will be weeping after reading: Quote: kill the "sheep"

Seems they are all completely stunned to see real poetry in the Lounge. It's either that or Perl.

Btw. how is your quest for the ultimate tablet going ?
|
|
|
|

Crap.
It seems the selection of tablets to choose from over here is really poor. And I don't really feel like importing one over the internet from overseas.
So at the moment I'm looking at:
- Lenovo P10, but it's not really having fancy hardware at all, so then I would have to buy a new one again in a couple of years. But it's at least fairly cheap.
- Samsung S5e, if I can find out how to remove the crapware that Samsung always put on their machines.
- Another iPad. But they're both expensive and incompatible with everything not made by Apple. But they really do last.

We were thinking about a vacation in Sweden next year, maybe I can take a tablet with me

Lenovo P10
Samsung S5e, you would have to root it. I'd prefer living with the crapware... but that would be my choice from the list.
iPad, nah.

Apparently one can disable packages using Adb shell debugging. I'll read up on it and report back if you're interested.

SUre, but ain't that too much overhead for the achieved result ?

I wouldn't know until I own one.

GitHub, check out, you lazy lout
compile with a fire hose,
up to your knees in debug and release
and a milestone to your nose

Love this stuff.
Also, I have substituted some grilled chicken for lamb on occasion in the past, with excellent results.

You don't fool me, that contains spinach
Might give a try this weekend, comments below it sound positive too. I wonder if I can replace the baby-spinach with half the amount of parsley?

I love spinach. It makes me strong like Popeye.

In real life it is more than 90% water. According to recommendations, Popeye would need 2500 kcal/day. 100 gram of spinach supplies you a whopping 23 kcal. Meaning Popeye needs to eat 11 kilo of spinach per day, just to get the average nutrition a normal person gets.
Now, before you say that doesn't fit in your stomach, remember that it contains mostly water. Evaporate that, and you're left with a kilo of greens.

There you go again Eddy - getting all technical and realistic with me. Can't I just pretend I am as strong as Popeye and call it a day.
