Just a thought…

Politics blaming each other’s, but right now trying to blame European people, that they don’t want to come and help Britain in need.

Everybody forgets what was shown last year. Thousands of HGV trucks have been stuck in companies car parks as they were not needed. The world has been fighting with Covid so no such many goods have been moving around.

When you buy Solid State Drive (SDD) the last thing is to have your drive fail and all files are lost.

With SSD is not as easy to restore anything as it could be with mechanical drives. If they fail it’s rarely anybody will bother to fix it, and most companies will just give you a new drive if it’s still on warranty.

Don’t expect any money back or help in the restoration of your files from faulty drives. None of the warranty covers that from any manufacturers - end of the story.

However, in this rare instance of failure, you expect swift action without any hassle and any extra cost for yourself. You already have a big (unrectified) cost for losing all your data so why to get another one?

And here the problem occurs.

I never classed myself as a creator despite I have learned to use new things to create something new.

I am more of a person who can use certain skills and available tools to achieve my goal.

Most of us have certainly heard about the requirements for Windows 11, when it comes to hardware. A large number of users were disappointed, checking whether they will be able to update their hardware to the latest system from Microsoft. But… how it is not possible, if it is!

Looking across various internet forums, from time to time I see people asking a support question, and straight away they add their apology for their poor English.

Most of the time, the question, issue or general query is formed correctly. English and not native English speakers can read and understand what the author got on his mind. The addition to showing the author’s weakness in the language (where he is not an English speaker) is unnecessary.

Since I migrated my personal blog to Hugo, I dusted off my knowledge for HTML and CSS. It’s like been back in 2008, with some extra magic available.

When WordPress starts been popular, I been using it on every project. Luckily, that’s not a case anymore.

Recently I found myself in an interesting situation at work.

I have been sitting comfortably on my office chair, slightly distanced from my desk, empty-looking on the computer screen that doesn’t display anything apart of my desktop with icons.

A bright observer from the “outside” can say that I am not doing anything, wasting time or even pretending I’m working. In reality, I got a brainstorm and debate with myself on how to do this and that.

This is how sometimes a job of Quality Manager looks like.

We live in a time where information is worth more than money. Information that may seem worthless to us (trivial) may turn out to be crucial to our security. I am talking about information in electronic form, i.e. our email and passwords.

Have you seen Sky Mobile’s “It’s not me, its you” ads on billboards lately?

Well, in recent weeks there has been quite a change to the benefit of consumers, especially mobile phone users.

Mobile phones are everyday life. In the UK, this sector is a huge business, especially since the island pays a little differently and you can afford slightly better phones on a monthly subscription.

Personally, I am not and never have been a supporter of subscriptions in the UK. Therefore, the introduction of the requirement of easy operator change and even easier number portability using only text messages (SMS) became something groundbreaking, so I decided to take a look at it.

For years, various speed dials or fast dials have been popular among users who wanted to start browsing the internet with something other than the Google search engine.

Trends have changed, along with the browser add-ons people used. Since Chrome became the dominant force on computers, fast dials haven’t evolved enough to fit into society.
