Not sure how far back his YT channel goes, but I used to follow Jamie way back when he was based in a crappy flat in Southern England, developing some kind of hexapod toy, and thereafter when he was in [somewhere in North America] building

Huh, I tried it in Chrome to see how it reacted here and it maintained about the same position as it did in my usual browser, Firefox.

Crikey, it's easy for me to forget how easy I have it sometimes. Thank you for responding!

> I grew up in a country that rhymes with toroko. I'm very curious why you chose to take this tack. Are you in not-Toroko now and are concerned about being tracked?

Circumcision is kind of ingenious - physically mutilate the essence of a man's fundamental sexual identity before they have a say in things and BOOMPH! tribal lock-in for the rest of their life, and that of their progeny and ever there

Yeah, I've had this experience with Five Guys here in Britain - the few times I've had one in London, it's been great. Slightly expensive, but quality 'plain, old fashioned burger'. Visited one in Harrogate on a sta

If you mean me, I run a shop with various machines that produce things as a business. Irrespective of who you mean, you should perhaps keep your sanctimony closer to your chest, it grates here.

It is a bit daft, but I think it's not the underlying functionality, rather just these particular thematic colour combinations. I guess the marketing goons think FOMO's a good hook in this context? Me neither.

For you, perhaps - I've come across it a lot in similar contexts and all the people who upvoted my comment seem to disagree with you too. I'm not saying I like it necessarily, but it's quite clear what it means in context and

'Colourways' is a fairly standard term to describe different colour options on various different product types. Mozilla haven't made this up for themselves. 'Theme', to me, suggests ye olde browser customisation whe

Depends upon where you are. Here in Blighty at least, it looks like people are paying attention... https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-58911296 ("Neighbour wins privacy row over smart doorbell and cameras")

I professionally use a vector editing program all day long, in this case Illustrator, and absolutely will not consider mis-affording pirated software.

The present subscription model and the prospect of where an entirely web-based equivalent will lead. Also, most of the people I know who use Creative Suite have absolutely zero need for any of the recent multi-user / social/web-

Well, I certainly don't like where this is going. Mind you, I suspect I'll not be alone and by the time Adobe transition to a fully web-based subscription lock-in, Affinity et al will be better positioned to entirely fill the void

If you're on Firefox, there's an add-on called 'Instagram guest' that allows you to get around their annoying attempts at lock-in.

I just had a weird experience on mobile where I for a second quite enjoyed spastically swiping left then right, scanning down the lines as if I were some quaint analogue mechanism reading like a human me ght, for the first time.

I've for years fantasised about being able to go on an airship cruise in my twilight years. I'm genuinely surprised it's not been seriously mooted by any companies.

I work with acrylic every day and I'm telling you - it scratches a helluva lot easier than plain glass. You can practically just show it something with a higher shore rating and it'll scratch itself... .
