I have just noticed that on the UK menu, there are a few crumbs or sauce drips next to every single burger, which there are not on the wonky Japanese menu. It seems there are definitely some interedssting nuances between food photography in

Yeah I suppose the same alternative is not really possible for video based media. I sometimes see producers touring their independant films along with a Q&A session, but I doubt that it is ever going to become popular to go and pay a ve

I would imagine it is intended so it loads quickly on mobile devices using slow data connections in crowded areas. I have noticed web pages taking a lot longer to load when I am in a city centre on a data connection. Its pretty cool and may

However, the buns on the Japanese menu are much more obviously askew than other countries menus, which is the interesting point I imagine the OP was getting at. Compare for example with the UK images which are much more symmetrical: https:

When Spotify came along, music piracy all but vanished. It has already been proven in other media, it needs to happen with sports and streaming in general, then media piracy will be a thing of the past.

You are still ignoring the fact that they have to provide a face scan to publish to trusted friends now. Also that kids < 16 might be the ones who want to share games to thir friends who are < 16. They still need to pay a subscription

You said > For friends, they need to do an age estimation only. Thats not true. It says to share with trusted friends and 16+ they need an account in good standing (paid) and an age check, which constitues sending a face scan or id. I li

In the linked page, point 2 literally says this: Publish to 16+ and Trusted Friends - To publish a game that reaches Trusted Friends and users over 16 you must: a. Complete an age check b. Have an account in good standing c. Have an accoun

But the term 'Roblox Devs' can also include other children. You seem to be missing the point a bit that kids used to be able to make games and share them with their friends for free. Now they need a paid subscription and a face sc

'Trusted friends' is the key term here. To become one you need to have a paid subscription and to submit a face scan or id, which is what most people here are against. I for one will not let my child submit a face scan to Roblox i

What about if a kid under the age of 16 wants to publish a game for other under 16 year old friends, like what Roblox was created for? Now they need a paid subscription with an id check to become a 'trusted friend'.

In most countries you can either sign up for contracts with regular data allowance, or buy pay-as-you go phones which require topups. It sounds like if you bought a pay-as-you-go sim card in Korea that it would immediately give you the slow

No need, it is correct. Bikes have tyre pollution, and trains have brake pollution. Seems like a pretty simple statement to me. Interesting that you have moved from arguing the point into semantics now without addressing anything else. You

Lovely tone, you sound like a really nice person. I never mentioned train wheels at all. Their brake pads are made from things like carbon, ceramic, and resin compounds. These wear down like any brake pads and so cause the same dust polluti

If cars are causing microplastic pollution, Im sure bikes and trains are too. Im seems using rubber/plastic compounds for tyres and brakes is always going to cause this issue on any vehicle.

Fully agree with you, however eating small bits of PFAS from pans seems to be pretty non toxic. Even in the recent Veritasium video about it they said that unless the chemical was heated to above ~300 degress C if will pass through the huma

This sounds to me like a normal black/white list, but everything is on the blacklist by default. I imagine this can be achieved with most mailboxes with a simple deny all rule and then cherry picking email addresses to whitelist.
