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…
This feels a little nitpicky to me - as a short hand for language and currency flags are commonplace. But I understand the thinking: "a language is nothing but a dialect with a flag" The alternative is to use ISO (En,…
This is lovely looking, quick to load and easy to read. Props. Take notes people!
Yourself and Gwern both need to learn how typography works before you declare yourselves arbiters of digital design. On the plus side, your site is friendly in reader view. • Never justify text in digital • Never right…
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.
And your description of a hike fills me with dread and depression. The differences between us is what makes life worth living. Your outlook has you on a bad road mon ami.
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?…
There's a phrase in Europe. "Old money dies hard" And money in Europe is old, and hard fought for. We still have rich people who's families made their fortune in the 11th Century. Money in the US is new. And easily…
Seems right. Being huge means less inner ear dizziness, spinning small and fast is stressful on materials and makes humans sick. And docking would be a major POA. If we are talking km diameter structures holding station…
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…
