The 1576 event was perhaps the earliest example of deliveroo. As part of a major shooting tournament, a delegation from Zurich travelled by boat to deliver a cauldron of hot millet porridge to the city, to prove they could reach Strasbourg

It's better if the sender includes tariffs/import duties in the price the customer pays originally, but it's easy to set up a system where the receiving country collects taxes on incoming deliveries. Ireland has it: https:&#

Love it. The tone is just right. A couple of suggestions: Have you tried a "filled line" approach, rather than "outlined" strokes? Might feel more like individual marker strokes. I made a demo video on the free tier and

Perhaps it is more a reflection of you, or of US (?) attitudes. This 3,000 person study [1] in Germany matched pairs of strangers for private face-to-face meetings to discuss divisive political issues. It found asymmetric effects: conversat
