I always like reading about, and comments from, ESL people who learned basically Internet English. Subtly different to UK and USA English but comprehensible by all.

No because crypto is a useless scam on the whole. The exact opposite of an Industrial Revolution. Actually it’s more of a virus or a parasite upon our industrial society. Adds no value, consumes gigawatts.

Just fyi as I recently learned this it’s ‘brouhaha’ rather than brew as in beer. No offense meant just passing it on!

I read that it was. The M2 was backported to the N5 process due to pandemic delays. I can’t actually find anything other than ‘analyst states’ type links though.

Mii's even had legs! Seriously this is like a shittier second life where you need to buy a $300 device to even test it, and like when second life first came out the hardware can barely run it so it's janky as hell. The dangers of

Yep plus early ‘discman’ didn’t have anti skip and battery life was terrible. Cassettes we’re easy to remix, record, share. The physical mixtape was a cultural touchstone of romance and friendship for a while there. So yeah, I guess ‘good e

It surprises me to see that described as an obscure phrase. It was/is commonly used in my upbringing in Liverpool, UK (second generation Irish catholic diaspora family). I’ve also heard the term in Texas recently.
