There’s a cricket ground near me called the Hampshire Rosebowl. At least, that’s what it was called when it was built.

Since then it’s been sponsored by a series of insurance or finance firms, so has officially been known as The <FIRM_NAME> Bowl.

But not to me. Nope. It’ll always be the Rosebowl.

It always amuses me that the US - the land of the free, the home of the brave - has a fair proportion of its people living in homes over which they have significantly less control than basically everyone else in the world has over theirs.

I have a couple of Linux machines, but I also use a MacBook. It’s been a year now, and every time I use the Mac it kinda pisses me off that I have to hit Cmd+Space to bring up a search. It feels like a massive step backwards.
