I wasn't really aware of this, I guess using a VPN would get around the issue though?

Not that I'm aware of, but perhaps the things I've watched have been more vanilla and not required that by the content owner.

Apologies, I’m not tuned into the details of the film as it’s on still my witch list. I didn’t want to overstate it just in case I was incorrect.

Movie rights will be a big factor also. Events like TIFF, Cannes etc, while being a platform to show films is also where deals are done, distribution rights are signed always for different territories etc. YouTube is essentially internation

I’ve not watched it yet, but a recent film called the Zone Of Interest sounds like it aligns to this. It’s about the Hoss family that lived next to one of the Nazi concentration camps, the father/husband ran the camp. Also, I recently

I studied design and visual communication. Around 2005/2006 I was doing a short animation but didn’t have a suitable way to show it when my project was being assessed. I did the same, I manually printed and trimmed each frame of animat

I guess the missing context here is how long the podcasts/playlist is vs how long your journey will take. I can see it being an issue if they are short, in a mixed order and you need to skip ahead etc. I've a habit of stopping eve

I’ve not used the mouse pointer but the previous models had a rotary encoder which is easier to work with. What isn’t mentioned is that there are hardware controls on the steering wheel for volume, next previous etc so you don’t need to int

No, a massive amount of the materials in use are printed, at the same time you can see the persistence of fraud of all types. It’s little things like this that are needed to provide some ground truth. Without the writers observation these i

I guess when I called them idiots the context in my mind was "how could they think they could get away with it using digital printing". They've committed fraud, plain and simple. As a consequence now all things like this may

There are plenty free non-fee-paying Grammar schools all around London. There are some private fee paying schools that were historical Grammar schools and still have it in their name. The only issue is that Grammar schools are super selecti

Good insight, thank you. Your right… there will be be a point where it will flip and then you’ll need a route planning app for gas stations. I plan on holding onto Our gas car for another 6 to 10 years if I can stretch it and at that point

I’ve see a video pop us of a woman watch her house burn down with fire fighters outside it watching it, you can hear them say there’s no watch. The pumps were dry for her at least. Lots of down votes… here’s the video I was referring to. I

Thinking longer term, what will happen to gas stations? I assume they will still be needed but the economic incentives will mean less and less use? Europe being a large landmass what about if someone drives their gas car from one country to

My personal opinion is that social media is an absolute poison. The internet is an amazing way of connecting disparate people who perhaps don’t have many connections in their immediate community, but as social media has grown those excessiv

I remember the Nintendo 2DS did the same thing, it was one screen with a partition and touch overlay.The game was rendered to both sides of it, it was a clever cost saving exercise. https://www.ifixit.com/Guide/Nintendo

The book with no pictures is great. As a parent though, it’s all about the performance of the adult when reading it to a child. I remember my kid was in fits of giggles every night when it was read :D

This is great, to add on to that, publishers are always looking for new content - there’s a print house somewhere right now printing the latest new story.

I imagine the celebs are likely being paid for their name and that’s about it. I would question if the book is actually good, or if it only has a market because of the association with them. To your closing question, new parents are biased

I’m a designer and also a parent, when you start reading children’s books to your child you realise how many bad stories there are, they can be empty, with bad writing etc. Once you find a good author you stick with them, perhaps back then

Random uninformed idea… this is surely wrong but… birds ‘knee’ joints are the opposite of humans, have their ‘butt’ muscles have evolved alongside their wing/breast muscles?

There are weaknesses in everything around you. If apple were to be the owner of the issue then what’s to stop apple covering it up? It’s better for a third party to support, track and collate the issues and then for that knowledge to be add
