My experience with these goes back decades, and my experience - outdated as it clearly is - was not positive.

Of course, but I'm more thinking about near to mid term, where a heck of a lot of domestic heating and cooking infrastructure has been built upon the assumption of gas, so is an incumbent sunk cost. All new builds and renovations shoul

I was resoundingly in the 'induction hobs are crap' camp until this NYE when we found ourselves staying away in the countryside in a place with a basic plug-in induction hob. I sighed and presumed my Absolutely Necessary morning t

It doesn't really very much, and what it does say sounds to me to be ... incorrect : "which allows both states to conduct military exercises in the territory of the other country without permission". And yes, self-promotion.

Thanks for this - it looks it'll be ideal for feeding the craving after my partner and mine's daily Wordle!

The place I recently stayed at in Umbria, Italy for New Year helpfully tolled bells 1-to-4 times each 15 minutes to describe whereabouts in the hour we were. All night long.

I guess start by describing what I know of orbital mechanics and how the solar system works. After that, build a small furnace with an exhaust that can shift a propellor shaft. After that, a flushing toilet. Then describe a manual Blockchai

Ooh, reminds me of my days abusing St John's Wort (amongst a great many other things) during Uni days and feeelig my skin bristle and burn in the heat of light shards of sunlight streaming between otherwise closed curtains... .

Instead of the histrionics, why not just log out and never return?

I've long suspected that this route would be a much more likely path for an interested alien civilisation otherwise disinclined to make contact with us to take. I also suspect that at least some insects have been utilised for similar

As an Amiga-owning Brit living in the South of Europe back then, as much as my eye was cast homeward culturally, it was also eyeing Germany quite a lot. You guys made great games too (never mind the demo scene, which Germany and the Nordics

Forgive my ignorance, but what would they be - the complete implosion of all forms of known security, or something else? This is a bit beyond my ken :)

I can't believe I was {HOWEVER OLD I AM NOW} when I learnt that the Moon is 'upside down' when seen from the Southern Hemisphere. I mean, of course it would be - but I'd never made that deductive leap. Made me feel like

I'm not sure about that - after a couple of initial waves, interest in the concept does seem to be receding a bit, as the reality of their ultimate pointlessness becomes apparent amongst the swell of people who might at all be interest

Well, in that case you sound like an exception to the generality, so good for you (and I mean that genuinely, not the British snarky mode it's usually delivered). However, most people use such baublage to signify success and wealth, ap

I'd like to think I wouldn't, were I in that lucky position. Genuinely-made art, perhaps I might have some time and cash for, but expensive wrist baubles that exist solely for the purpose of extracting money from rich people to sa
