Part I of an account of the wild story can be found here; it’s really quite interesting, at the least! https://web.archive.org/web/20220112152207/https://www.wired...
Perhaps relevant here would be the current approach in South Africa; it’s been decriminalised for use (for adults) in private. One can grow a certain amount at ones private residence, and consume it freely there as…
Also recently four Russian jets violated Swedish airspace during joint Finnish-Swedish exercises. From the linked article, described by the Swedish airforce as '"particularly serious" given the current situation, [who]…
Just to comment on your take about the brand itself. Ray-Ban is owned by the Luxottica Group, who are set to merge with Essilor - looking at ~25% global value of eyewear. This means they own enough to possibly a) start…
I believe it relates to any personal rights you may have as an artistic creator. Things like altering any works you produce, removing your name, and so on. I would hope that this waiving extends only to works created on…
One fun (free!) resource is DrawABox. Despite the humble name, you'll learn a lot more :) Well structured, exercise-based, it takes you all the way from the absolute fundamentals. https://drawabox.com/lessons
I don't have any particularly interesting ideas about this, but here's a relevant and fun read; an interview with Simon Pegg: https://kingalfredpress.com/2017/09/20/the-infantalism-of-cu...
I agree for many many sites, but do sometimes find it useful - specifically when you know exactly what you want from a particular site, but don't know the URL. Example: !deb for debian package information.
But still: >"The researchers also noted a mild positive effect on employment, particularly in certain categories, such as families with children" at least says something.
It's dawning on me that it's likely to only become more of a pain with each iteration of upgrades (e.g. install tweaks, synaptic, remove apport... And now remove snaps). Time to check out Debian! *Edited. I can't type…
Point taken on the shoddy behaviour, but if you'd like to try it out there's this helpful post on disabling snap[1] shared here[2] when I installed 20.04. Quick and painless! 1.…

And <c-w> clears the previous word :) Also <c-y> pastes the line/word back in (so you cant think of it like cut-copy).
Markdown is great! You get just enough formatting with little effort to structure docs well and include URLs and so on as needed. It can be written in any editor. It gets bonus points for being easy to convert to other…
This is what we have in Finland; basically either: 1. Military service ranging from half a year to a year. 2. Civil service for a year. 3. Half a year prison sentence. 4. Exemption for medical reasons.…
I prefer take-home assignments. I know that they often get a bad rep and have the potential for abuse; for this reason I'd argue for implementing some or other solution in the field. I recently had one requiring me to…
