On around the 12th October last year, there was an interview on the BBC World Service with former Israeli PM Ehud Barak.
He confidently estimated it would take 'about 4 weeks' to completely destroy Hamas.

How much d'you want to bet that Putin was waxing lyrical to him about Hannibal (the Carthaginian General and great military tactician), and the ignorant fuckwit assumed he meant Lecter?
Edit: typo.
I mean, I'm not saying I like it, but it probably looks much less garish IRL.
The estate agents have clearly taken the photos on an overcast day, then (with their usual cack-handed approach to photography) fucked with the sliders in Photoshop until the pictures look less dingy.
I can't find the original study, but according to this NPR article they were all scheduled for surgical abortions.
The abortion pill is a two pill process - the study was to find out if progesterone injections could reverse the effects of taking the first pill only.
I switched to Linux full time (I'd gone back and forth for a while) about 10 years ago when my XP laptop died.
I had access to Windows 7 via work, but I didn't like how much telemetry was being sent back to MS...
For Enterprise/Education you can disable the 'recommended' section entirely via group policy. Doesn't work for Pro/Home versions though, from what I remember.
It only works on desktop, but I use Syncthing to sync the whole profile (with the cache etc folders excluded).
You do need to make sure the profile path is identical on both machines as it's hardcoded in the extensions json file, and otherwise your extensions won't work properly.
So long as you close the browser on one machine before opening it on the other, it will sync your open tabs as well.
One person household - excluding recycling/food waste, I empty the kitchen bin every 6-8 weeks or so. If the wastepaper baskets need doing I do them at the same time.
I don't have a Windows 11 machine available, so I can't get you the exact command, but this should get you there.
It should remove it from all users on the laptop, and (hopefully!) prevent it from coming back:
Open Powershell and run:
Get-AppxProvisionedPackage -Online | Where-Object {$_.displayname -like "*Copilot*"}
Copy the Package Name entry and run the following command, with PACKAGENAME replaced by what you just copied:
Remove-AppxProvisionedPackage -online -packagename PACKAGENAME
OP is clearly a troll:
In fact, trolls traditionally count like this: one, two, three . . . many, and people assume this means they can have no grasp of higher numbers.
They don't realize that many can be a number. As in: one, two,three, many, many-one, many-two, many-three, many many, many-many-one, many-many-two, many-many-three, many many many, many-many-many-one, many-many-many-two, many-many-many-three, LOTS.

I imagine their conversations go something like this:
"...unfortunately, they can no longer move anything else."
It's not my fault! The bigger boys tricked me!
I got the Oasis/roll with it bit (probably because I'm old), but I had to look up what oasis soup was.
OASIS (Oldways Africana Soup In Stories) is a celebratory anthology of culturally-informed soup recipes that seeks to foster and expand conversation about nutritional knowledge and Black women’s wellness.

Edit: Though the book may have been based on the original joke, come to think of it...
Not sure I'd categorise us as a civilised country at the moment, but in the UK it's a full week before your employer can ask for a note: https://www.gov.uk/taking-sick-leave
Huh - I assumed they were the same thing.
I wonder if it never aired in the UK...
Cosby predates One Foot in the Grave - I remember watching Cosby as a kid in the 80s, and OFitG didn't show up until the 90s. OFitG became (I think) Curb Your Enthusiam.
I've been working in Primary School IT for the past 20 years - I can guarantee that IT (if they were asked at all) told the school how many PCs would fit, and were ignored because they 'need enough for a full class!'
It's infuriating.
'Hmmm - what can I bring in return? No cool shiny things around here- ooh! Gizzard stones! They're useful! Hope this one's big enough 'cause they're much bigger than I am!'
