The X games?
None, I use a Kobo for ebooks and mostly buy "real" paper books. But I was thinking this sounded like a great (and cheap) use case but then I thought why not just use my phone... I don't have any social media apps on my…
I was thinking of getting one for exactly the use case you've described here but then I thought, "why don't I just get my phone out and read the ebooks directly on that?" Can you explain to me why one of these is better…
Funnily enough I do the same with my Intel iMac... I have a 2TB Thunderbolt 3 Glyph drive as my primary and boot drive and it works a dream... if I got one of these new Mac minis without upgrading the drive, presumably…
An additional £1,000 for a 2TB drive is crazy though, rapidly takes the new Mac mini from a good price to a nuts price
Same in the UK
Are you in the USA? It's because Roget as a title isn't trademarked there so it's accepted as a name for any thesaurus. If you want the latest edition of the "real" Roget's, it's the one published by Longman.
ULU is gone now, University of London scrapped it
Playing Devils Advocate... isn't this the government taking action?
Depends on the laws in Belgium (I've no idea what they are)... in the UK for example trespass by itself is not a criminal matter, even if somebody refuses to leave your property... they need to be doing something else.
Would likely win in the UK as we have an unfair terms regulation, a small claims court could easily rule it an unfair as any reasonable consumer would assume they were purchasing the movie to watch whenever they want to.
The UK used to have that with its railway projects - the old government owned British Rail had massive and extensive knowledge on large rail infrastructure projects and no need for expensive external "consultants". That…
In the UK it's done by breathalyser and refusing is itself an offence.
How do you curate and keep on top of so many feeds? I have ~10 on my RSS reader and I sometimes have trouble keeping up if I have a couple of busy days
A decent tool could surely define multiple different views of the same information?
My wife and I have occasionally made our own butter for years now... one thing people always forget to mention is that it goes bad really quickly. The trick is either to cut it up into chunks and freeze most of it and…
As a highly experienced consultant once said to me, forget all the objectives, priorities and corporate culture bullshit, whatever anyone tells you, your job is to make your boss look good.

No issues here either
You have a way out... you are allowed to live and work in Ireland. Stay there for a few years (I forget how many) and apply for an Irish ( = EU) passport
As far as I can tell you can't buy the ebooks for Dungeon Crawler Carl on Kobo, they seem to be exclusive to Kindle... unless anyone knows differently? Otherwise I guess it'll be the seven seas for me which I really…
In the UK at least Fraud doesn't require any damages, just an intent to gain something of value on the criminals side.
I remember a friend who was really into his skiing telling me that ski instructors take bets on which overweight 50+ year old first time skiing city person would have the a heart attack first.
But how would you know until it's too late and you've already checked in? Doesn't seem to be a very effective way of achieving this... Just means my mate and I wouldn't go back to that hotel again.
Many years ago, all organisations - "Hey we can cut costs by getting rid of all of our expensive experts and not running our own data centres!" Many years later - "Oh no! Not running our own data centres means our data…
