Likewise in trail running, Aonijie is building a decent reputation for accessories.
"exagerrating a bit" ? I've bought a few things off Temu and Shein, and the quality's been perfectly acceptable.
Where I've seen the difference is in the quality of the instructions (which matters) and the packaging (which arguably doesn't). The bricks themselves are, as you say, basically flawless.
In the UK you have to declare the item, and local museums are then allowed to bid a fair market price for it, which you have to accept. This money would then be split equally between the person who discovered the item…
The display on my Samsung S21 (with original, unchanged screen) turns pinkish when I'm wearing polarized sunglasses - presumably it's filtering out part of the blue wavelengths. Mildly irritating when I'm driving and…
That's just modern fashion - in other eras "flowery" language would be considered superior.
Might have to have a read of that - reportedly my grandfather worked on antifreeze solutions at the NPL in London during WWII. Be interesting to see if any of his work is referenced.
Cork trees are an exception to this, and are harvested all the way round without harming the tree.
It's amusing to try turning it round, makes you realise just quite how sexist it actually is: "No, of course I'm not offended by being called a firewoman, why would I be? It's clearly referring to both women and men" -…
I'd add a working knowledge of regex to that. With a decent text editor + some fairly basic regex skills you can go a long way.
Not only that, but a whole load of the services in Amsterdam will only accept Dutch debit cards. Which is just great when you've got a Spanish credit card (that you've used all over the world, just not in Amsterdam...)
The Weezer video it included! Still love that song!
I find the easiest time to do this is at midday. It's a great way to wake you up from your after-lunch slump. The kids aren't around so no one's expecting you to help take care of them. And it's a lot easier to explain…
BLIT has something along these lines, not exactly flashing lights but similar: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BLIT_(short_story)
They don't in Spain. They might be able to read it (just about), and given a week or two on holiday they might be able to understand a fair bit... but fluently? No.

Lincoln Castle prison (in the UK) used passive cooling, there's a Time Team documentary about it - the jail fever outbreak section talks about it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pm6A9sNXnzw#t=2013 (The entire…
How do you legislate against a seed library? I can understand the big companies patenting particular seeds, or lobbying against state funding for libraries - but actually legislating against one? (Not trolling:…
Think of it as "open source justice", where more eyes means less bugs.
Even "ordinary" elections have a similar risk to Crimea in some parts of the world - if I lived in the Basque Country in Spain, and voted for the (mainstream, right wing) Partido Popular I wouldn't necessarily want that…
I tend to agree, but you could argue that as US taxpayers are paying for the research it would be stupid/unethical/incorrect not to maximise any potential profit from its results. (Note: I'm not a US citizen, I'm…
They become enforceable when the Chinese company exports them back to the US, though. I wonder if the US government could offer free licensing to all national companies, which would seem to be the best of both worlds?
Of course, although I find it hard to imagine a modern corporation funding something like the Apollo landings.
