You're right, he should have said 'Jupiter.' Val would have been a sub-Roman Celt, and as such would have followed Druid rituals while paying lip service to Roman gods.

I dunno, Thule is generally associated with the far north, Scandinavia and the like. Didn't the first couple strips indicate that Val's father came to the British Isles from across the sea?

They did say that. I got curious about that "Prince of Thule" title at one point and looked it up and there are several candidates for where Thule was - ranging from Greenland to Iceland to Norway to the Shetlands or other islands, but all in the north. That said, though, Val did hang around Camelot and later Andelkrag for quite a while, and it wouldn't be too unusual if he picked up some commonly-used cuss words and oaths from there.

Does it cut the roof of your mouth?

Retail

This is sadly living up to all my expectations of boring. On a related note, better security costs too much so nothing will be done, I guess!

quote:

That business calculus isn’t clear because the cost of replacing existing systems is greater than the liability for fraud. The [National Retail Federation] estimates that it would cost U.S. retailers $35 billion in hardware, software and training to support a new standard for cards secured with smart chips and PIN technology. In contrast, credit card fraud costs U.S. retailers and financial services firms about $5.5 billion a year, he said.

If you press (hold) it before the Windows start-up screen pops you get access to the advanced start options, which includes access to a couple of basic repair options for various Windows core functions that generally if they're hosed up enough to need repair are hosed up beyond repair. More accurately it's the 'Windows-only pre-boot diagnostic key'.
