That’s a nice line but could you tell me what it means?

Not weird but I do think they’re embarrassing, degrading, insufferable.

Hah I’ve been meaning to give it away but I don’t want to inflict it on anyone I like.

Ah this makes so much sense! I bought a book on Amazon Germany last year, 1000 Essays That Will Change The Way You Think, and as soon as I opened it I had a feeling it was a pirate copy. I even tried to find the book in a physical book stor

I imagine there are contractual commitments and SLAs involved.

I’ve found literally no shows on Apple TV that I’m interested in. The only one I got through more than two episodes was Ted Lasso and I had gave up on that after five or six as it got worse not better.

I spent a long time living in the past. Back in the present now and I’m looking forward to visiting the future later today.

> Heck, I don’t even own pants or shoes worthy of wearing to a pub if I needed to. I wonder if your idea of what going to a bar is has been coloured by TV, movies etc. It doesn’t have to be glamorous. Most bars do not have a dress code.

Yea for sure. Mushrooms and LSD are not really popular and not drugs drug addicts gravitate towards. I don’t thin legalisation would hugely increase use.

Overnight YouTube videos? For sleeping to?

Yeah I can’t get it to fit the usual melody. Did you happen to put it on YouTube?

I only learned that in university. I did a joint major in English and history, but it actually came up in a history module in an offhand comment by the lecturer. I’m not surprised it’s little known.

I also agree with you. And the legal or marketing team that asked for it all have bosses too asking them for certain things.

I spent years having solo adventures only to realize I'd been missing out on shared adventures with a long term partner. With the right person, your adventures can be much bigger, at least for me. Your mileage may vary.

Selfish means to lack consideration for others or to be concerned only with your needs. A donation that makes you feel good but benefits others doesn’t really fit that term. If it’s done purely to advance yourself through brand or something

I suspect only a small subset of people who generally run an adblocker also block ads on apps as it requires a lot more specialized knowledge.

Person ignorant here of copyright when it comes to mathematics. What do you need to do to copyright something? It doesn’t work the way art like music and writing does? Which is that copyright is automatic just by recording or writing someth

For some people, some of the time. Many journalists will have their MacBooks prized out of the cold dead hands. I travel with my laptop and my iPad Pro never leaves the couch. And how close to most working artists’ realities are those slick

I suspect the scale being accurate +-30g is sufficient for personal weight management unless you’re a professional boxer or need it to be exact for some reason.

I’m not sure wearing headsets all day and air typing is going to be a lot better ergonomically.

I haven’t seen that in practice much, but in time I expect to see it displayed more and more. Doesn’t mean no one will lie, or find ways around it, especially less scrupulous retailers. For example by raising the price 31 days out from a s

The 13 inch Macbook Air M2 price has gone down EUR200 in Europe, making it much more attractive.
