Thanks a lot! Exactly the kind of explanation I was looking for, but unable to find myself!

I always thought that the suffixes defined in which units the CPU temperature was measured.
K -> Kelvin
F -> Fahrenheit
T -> Telsius
I have lived with several Zen masters - all of them were cats.
His last invention was an evil Lasagna. It didn't kill anyone, and it actually tasted pretty good.

...and to the power of the length of your nose. Measured in Tentimeters.

For temperature it would be Tentigrade?

Exactly, That's what I meant! Telsius.

It's one of these: Anycubic Photon Mono[^] - a 3D SLA (resin) printer to go alongside the Anycubic FDM machine.
The other half is the wash / cure station (and the 1L resin / 5L IPA consumables) which are due this week.
I'm going to be good: it'll stay in its box until Christmas ... probably.

That's a good looking machine.
Might have to add one of their printers to my Christmas list.

Open it now. You don't want to find that there's something wrong with it after the return period has expired.
You're welcome.

You are up tomorrow!
Why "justify the V"? What solution did you get?

I got In = chic
Solent = water
I don't think water is a solvent but I may be wrong
Edit
Ignore that I just checked and water is known as the universal solvent ( how wrong can you be )

What's ruined doing in there? It's an anagram indicator, but nothing has to be anagrammed.

It's an red herring anagram indicator, there to persuade you to waste time looking for an anagram, when in fact "ruined" is a synonym for "insolvent", just like the other two parts of the clue!
I see it worked on someone ... if not everyone.

Since the most recent update (12.1.20.21 if anyone's interested), I've been bemused by the sorting of Samsung's Contacts.
I have a fire service colleague by the name of Col B****. His position, (along with several others) got renamed by the service.
I keep my contacts sorted by first name, so he used to appear in the C's, as Col B**** oldtitle .
I edited the entry to Col B**** newtitle , whereupon he got shuffled into the B's.
Eventually, by poking into the .vcf file, I figured that Samsung, in their infinite wisdom, has now decided to parse the name as
Title: Col, First: B****, Last: newtitle.
If I rename him to Colin (a handle nobody uses), sanity is restored. Well, almost. My other contact Col Ch**** is sorted on the Ch****, as though he has a title but no last name.
Makes you wonder how they'd handle Major Major Major Major....

Not to mention Captain Sir Richard Francis Burton KCMG FRGS ...
KCMG - "Knight Commander of the Most Distinguished Order of St MichAel and St George"
FRGS - "Fellow of the Royal Geographical Society"
(He normally truncated the rest to "Etc.")

When I moved to work in Germany I found that they were very keen on titles, etc. When I first got there they called me "Herr ..." but once they found out I had been a professor and had a doctorate they always called me "Herr Doctor Professor ..." which was fun to start with but they persistently called me that and it got really tiresome after a while. Thank goodness they didn't find out I had once been a Colonel or had an inherited knighthood! "Das Ritter Herr Doctor Professor Oberst ..."?
