Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 26-1-2019: Uganda

26th January, 2019.

Hmmm … 

I have to admit, I do like my Apple products.

Really.

I’ve been quite the loyal one for some eighteen or so years.

Right at the moment, though, I have to admit to being one that’s mildly annoyed.

I’ve installed a recent set of updates: serious, security, ones that I discuss here.

The downside to those updates … ?

Simply put?

Is that, since installing those updates, my copy of iMovie is behaving distinctly badly: causing system hangs that only seem to clear up, if I force a restart, switching my machine on and off again.

Frankly?

As someone who relies on that app, I’m not exactly what you call happy.

~≈§≈~

Let’s move on, shall we?

Yesterday’s Teaser saw Badwolf*, Olga†, Debbi‡ putting in their answers: with all three scoring five out of five.

Let’s see how everyone does with today’s questions, shall we?

Here they are, along with the How To, License and video … 

Q1) 26th January is Liberation Day in Uganda.   Making the end of the Tito Okello’s regime: in which year of the 1980s?

Q2) He died in what was and is, Uganda’s capital city.   What is that city … ?

Q3) Uganda is a what: constitutional monarchy, absolute monarchy or republic?

Q4) Name one of Uganda’s two official languages.

Q5) Finally … ?   Which country has the smaller rail network: Uganda or the UK … ?

Here’s yesterday’s questions and answers … 

Q1) The first winter Olympics opened on 25th January.   Of which year?

A1) 1924.

Q2) It was held in which French commune?

A2) Chamonix.   (Also called Chamonix-Mont-Blanc.)

Q3) The Games featured the Military what, as an official sport?

Q4) How many gold medals did host nation, France, win … ?

A4) None.

Q5) Finally … ?   Which nation won the most medals at these first Winter Olympics?

Here’s a thought …

“The problem of Africa in general and Uganda in particular is not the people but leaders who want to overstay in power.”

President Yoweri Museveni of Uganda.

And a national anthem …

Today’s questions will be answered in tomorrow’s Teaser.

Have a good day.

*        Morning, @Badwolf!

†        Rarely goes into 1 figure temperatures?   That decides it, Olga, where do I get Spanish citizenship … ?

‡        I’m glad that clears things up, Debbi!   Oh, btw … ?   Are you on Mojave?   And getting issues with Final Cut Pro, or iMovie?   iMovie’s behaving noticeably badly on macOS 10•14•3 … !   Badly enough for me to Tweet Tim Cook … !   (In the hope he’ll do a Jeff Bezos.)

Dear @tim_cook I think I have an issue that I’d like your opinion on.
I’ve just installed the #Mojave 10.14.3 update: with those important security updates.
*Since* then? I’ve had issues using iMovie: as my whole system hangs when rendering video with the app.
