I'm sympathetic to the confusion, despite having a British origin myself, just because the thick-fluffy pancake is objectively more similar to other things we call "cake".

Bear in mind that you're reading a recipe written by John Locke, an English philosopher. So he's using the English definition of "pancake", which is nothing like the American definition.

You picked a bad recipe to suggest this on, because this isn't the sort of pancake that you'd want to add baking powder to. :D English-style pancakes (like this) are thicker than crepes, but they're still thin fried-batter

My understanding is that once they remove python2, there won't be any Python bundled. There will be a python3 handler that just prints a message asking you to use `xcode-select` to install the XCode command line tools, and that'

Oh, for sure. It’s just the difference between clothes you can wear a few times and only once -- it mostly means you can afford to either pack a bit lighter or go longer between needing to find laundry.

They're kind-of lifestyle, in that they do strongly convey a certain "woo special forces oo-rah!" vibe (that I don't actually like -- though you can occasionally buy versions without all the MOLLE), but they do originate

It does depend a bit on your needs. If you're only traveling for a few days, or you have convenient access to laundry, most of the hardcore one bag stuff is unnecessary. A lot of the expense comes from working out clothes that fit mu

It's a tricky timing to work out, I guess. You want to warn people about trackers near them, but you don't want someone e.g. leaving their tagged bag in their locker to cause loud beeping after 30 minutes.

I'm saying anyone who wanted to do this already could, and Apple's version is worse at being abusive than what they could already do. Sticking trackers onto the cars of people parked near bars isn't really a thing you do on

You're misunderstanding the proposed system. The entire system as-described only runs on content that's in the process of being uploaded to Apple -- it's part of the iCloud Photos upload system. Apple stores all this content
