Yes, I think the US pint is 16 Oz (2 cups), whereas the UK pint is 20 Oz (4 gills).

I encountered something like this at work. It wasn’t pass related, it was just a means of getting people to make text responses. Ampersands were replaced with some gibberish format, which annoyed everyone.

I got some kind of explanation from our tech people, which I understood to mean that ampersand was used to indicate that what followed was live code. Turning the ampersand into gibberish text was a safety measure to stop mischief.

I’ve noticed ampersand replacements in some news feeds too

Yes, that’s true. Keychain Access helps a lot.

My understanding is that your GF will be using Apple’s KeyChain, which is pretty good except that it’s hard to look inside and manually edit. It’s not just in Safari.

The upcoming Password app is just a nice user interface to KeyChain. So no change to the functionality as such, but I think it’ll make a big difference to how it’s used.

This has changed since I did biology. I remember:

I (interphase) Pissed myself At Tracey’s

My student accommodation had cockchafers. The university didn’t believe us until one of my friends presented them with one in a matchbox.

I imagine that’s quite a common situation.

[–] Puttaneska@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago

Me too.

I’m sure there was stuff that I’d enjoy, but finding it was near impossible.

At the end of the occasional thing I’d watch to the end, an irrelevant ad for something else jumps up. Kin annoying.

I have used OpenOffice on Macs.

Also there are some free Apple apps that aren’t installed by default. (GarageBand and one for making gifs)

That sounds right. I think I remember paying for iWork back then too.

This would make sense, although I seem to remember being told that hosing can be used to pump warm air from the top of the warehouse down. So cheap , environmentally friendly heating.

If OP knows weather it sucks or blows, we might have this one solved!

Oh, I didn’t know that.

It threw me when I first heard it. Present and future tense all in the same sentence!
