What cheeses me off

[TheRealTMA]

I guess they can't change their definition of 'date' now, but you'd think they could add one more date function tool to accommodate <1900.

Maybe this would be useful?

Or store the <1900 date as text and use a string function to do calculations.

I know. The reality is that as ACL is unenforceable the buyer is at the mercy of the seller in the Amazon jungle.

...and/or maybe just by living in the US, world history is unimportant

I would go with the tech nerd interpretation - whilst world history (actually world anything) is unimportant to the general run of people living in the US, they do acknowledge their own history prior to 1900.

And the buyer is responsible for ordering the correct item and returning it within the defined time if not suitable.

Trying to prove identity in SA app to obtain digital licences. All the usuals. Plus DL and the number on the reverse. Then it asks me for the payment number of any vehicle owned by me. This payment number is not located on the certificate of registration. It's a number that is on the sheet they also send for renewal of registration. I never keep it. I do keep the actual certificate and the notice I need if I want to sell. Now I remember why I stopped trying to do this a few months ago.

Yes, that’s what excelsddict referred me to.

I just have to sort a long column of dates and accompanying data next to them, so adding 1000 works ( because as you’re seen from the formula it gives, it’s not just a straightforward addition)

Lots of rear “dash”cams. Most people install them as a double combo.
They are usually quite wide angled so will catch side stuff too, at times

My rear cam is an old one, not plugged in. A bit of white card behind it makes it very obvious to anyone following

They flatten my battery if I forget to turn them off. But I’ve put a battery powered security camera in the rear of my car in case people in the building get vindictive with what we’ve done with BC issues.

If connected only to car battery this can be an issue. Need to get a rechargable lithium battery connected to the camera.
