I believe THC is still illegal in France. So it's mostly convenience - a certain base of weed users don't want to buy from dealers, or want the security of a well produced product - an illicitly produced THC vape can be…
For one, not to mix it with vinegar. Chlorine gas. There was a spate of TikTok's recommending mixing them for cleaning purposes. To the horror of many.
Nearly all A&E (ER) rooms are managed by the NHS. Private ones are few and far between so it’s likely that a tourist with insurance will end up in a standard A&E - which can have very long wait times[1]. The NHS is also…
This is it for me, I used Apple Music for a few years and eventually I noticed that some of my playlists would have tracks missing - sometimes a listing would be ghosted, sometimes it would straight up vanish. I called…
I think this is the correct take. Most comments have been developers complaining that Safari doesn't do esoteric task _x_ rather than their clients can't achieve _y_ Apple make products for the top end of customers and…
It would be remiss not to mention Gold makes incredible jewellery. And jewellery - or the act of decorating ourselves to distinguish between one another - is an innate part of all our cultures. An item can last longer…
Agreed. I should have said ‘understand’. My point being that applying rules learnt from hundreds of years of literary culture and printing do not 1:1 translate into digital. Justified copy is as much about saving paper…
I think they are implying OP has used weed as a crutch and accidentally obscured a real condition. A bit like using painkillers to avoid having knee surgery. A crutch, not a solution.
Have designed and built apps for several high profile brands. When you are big enough: apple occasionally send an engineer to share upcoming features, or nudge you in a direction they are keen to promote (2018 it was…
4000 Princes, over 10k members of the royal family, Saudi.
For sure. With a healthy percentage of “I have £100k and I can only bring £10k before I need to declare tax and my employer canned the project and my visa. Allow the car”
People I know who’ve done it: • getting a drink (alcohol) is a major pain. Either underground, or some elite venue where rules don’t apply - and the jeopardy that goes with that. Really want to spill wine on a Prince?…
Totally. Who is going to pay a studio to develop the models, artwork and code required to have a ‘NFT skin’ in a game? Money is made by selling a skin multiple times to return effort. And what if I want that skin in…
My experience is they do indeed dig into your credit report and will approve/deny based on it. Not sure where your information to the contrary comes from? https://www.which.co.uk/money/mortgages-and-property/mortgag...
Can second this. I had to get a credit card as mortgage got denied because my credit record didn't exist. Three months after the card, I got approved. This is despite me earning an extravagant wage relative to my age…
I think on a Mac you'd struggle to get anything to pre-creative cloud to execute. Windows might be a different story? If you are doing basic PS work - the open source alternatives are more than capable. Some non-adobe…
Gravit is new on me. I'm bias against web apps, but it's very cool a someone is playing in that space. Thanks! It's beautiful to see that inside a decade we've gone from having a monoculture of Illustrator as the sole…
This is absolutely my experience of Adobe software too. Terribly engineered with priorities weighted for the board rather than users. I’ve been a designer for +20 years and sans-Adobe for five, I absolutely recommend…
I think it’s common knowledge that the Conservative party in the UK accepts large donations from Russian citizens[1] and that a section of the London property market is swimming in Russian money.[0] It would be a…
I agree with this on the whole. I’d add the form factor of a phone works against anything complex also. No D-Pad/Joystick or hardware buttons really makes it difficult to design anything that will hit that fun + complex…
Might be worth noting that the Stonehenge complex is much larger than the henge itself, and isn’t particularly well researched yet: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Durrington_Walls?wprov=sfti1…
The Guardian seem very lost: chasing the same slice of advertising pie as DM/Telegraph. Channel 4 news are a small team with a heck of a punch - but there is not a lot of daily output.
Sadly this is true. The BBC is staffed with some truly incredible talent and some of the output is world class - however, the news sub-desks are more or less a few freelancers copy/pasting from Reuters/syndicated news…
They are high. I had to get from the West, to London, and then to the north last week. Wiltshire to London: ~100miles, £24 London to Derbyshire: ~120miles, £158 I'd like to give the benefit of the doubt about peak…
Well put. The fundamentals are: pretty much everything in this world has a known fiat currency value. The difference with BitCoin is that you can't go to a farmer and buy his goods, or pick up a used car, go to an…
