Cloth, snow, hair, and other complex textures with entropy are considered "Holy Grail" to CGI producers. Modeling these realistically has been the key to moviemaking in houses like Pixar and Sony. So modeling cloth is like a bench

It's squeezing from both ends. If a bureaucracy sends out a thing that requires followup/action, and it arrives right before the sidewalks are rolled up, then the citizen is sort of flailing for days. Might even forget to act at 9

Yes, the Catholic Church supports and encourages belief in the supernatural. It is strange, isn't it. In fact it's nearly mandatory! Paderborn is particularly mentioned in the article I linked. Paderborn condemned the pagan belief

Our SATB chorus was about 75 strong, with about 2 women who could sing tenor. They were highly valued, especially in the limited membership of a women’s barbershop ensemble. If you’re male and you can sing anything or play a pipe organ, you

If moving it to another port from the OS is beyond the pale for you, your router should implement PAT (port translation) or forwarding, so that from the outside, users could connect on, say, 443 or 2323, and the router rewrites the segments
