Getting preggers in space? It puts a new spin on the mile high club.
I'm not sure how this all works if there are exams where you sit down with a pen and paper. Do they still do those? Anybody who has shortcutted on coursework will instantly fail.
How does that happen - lack of external moderation?
You don't even need to learn a foreign language if you're an English speaker at some very good universities in Germany.
Thereâ(TM)s a thriving community for everyone if you can find it the channel, all hidden away from the echo chamber.
Finding a secret space full other like-minded people sounds exactly like an echo chamber. Sometimes there is just an incredibly small percentage of people that have certain opinions, but when put together from all of the world, the numbers and lack of alternative voices can give the false impression of normalcy.
Polonium tea and other forms of chemical terrorism like novichok are not limited to attacking people in just Russia. Oligarchs have also had strange accidents and unexpected heart attacks in other countries too.
As a Briton, I don't recognise anything you just said. I think I can disagree with every sentence you wrote.
Youâ(TM)re actually thinking about the question. Everybody else has given answers about total boot time to get to the point of using the system. This isnâ(TM)t what was being asked. TFA is about a dual boot system and how long it takes until they can choose which OS to boot. Itâ(TM)s asking about how long it takes to start booting the OS, not finish booting it.
Iâ(TM)ve got Macs, all of them dual boot. Thereâ(TM)s definitely a delay before the OS boots, but not normally annoyingly long. What I did notice though: I have an external boot SSD that I move around between Macs. I installed OpenCore Legacy Patcher (OCLP) on it to upgrade the OS past the max supported version. Now my Macs hang for a long time before they start booting if the external SSD isnâ(TM)t attached.
I canâ(TM)t help feeling that youâ(TM)re focusing on the upfront costs of a new technology. Whatâ(TM)s the total cost of ownership over the next 10 years of both technologies?
Once this battery recall has been resolved, this story becomes irrelevant.
TFA says that the batteries have been recalled and are a fire hazard. Surely that fire risk has got nothing to do with indoor charging. The article doesnâ(TM)t go into any details about this at all and thus just reads as an attempt to attack the green agenda. If there wasnâ(TM)t a recall, I bet this would be a non-story. Itâ(TM)s like complaining that a batch of diesel buses are shit because of a recall on the fuel tank that means they canâ(TM)t be filled enough.
What is it with Canadians and talking about windchill as if itâ(TM)s the real temperature? Itâ(TM)s not. The Russians and Swedes I know donâ(TM)t do it. Is it some attempt to sound more macho? The wind chill is just an indication of how quickly heat dissipates. If you roll over dead in a ditch, your corpse wonâ(TM)t cool to the temperature of the wind chill, and neither will those batteries.
Not to dismiss your point, I know from personal experience how cold it gets in Montreal. The lowest temperature this year has been -25, and the coldest in the last 25 years was -29 (source: https://ancillary-proxy.atarimworker.io?url=https%3A%2F%2Fmontreal.weatherstats....). Itâ(TM)s impressive that buses are fine and if correct, a good counter to fluffernutterâ(TM)s anti-EV BS.
There are so many, where do you start? Yes, I live in London where the decline is lower, so maybe our pubs have adapted better. But whenever I visit friends or family elsewhere in the country, mostly SE and SW England, there are always good pubs. I enjoyed some hiking in the Lake District (NW England) last year and very much enjoyed the pub scene there. A few months ago when we went for a walk in the countryside an hour from London, found a fabulous village pub for lunch without even trying. None of these fit the description proffered.
Yes, of course there are crap pubs too, mostly Wetherspoons, BTW. I was at the Leigh Sports Village last summer for a tournament my son was competing in, and the pub on site there was awful and rammed with people coming from the last rugby game of the season. Sticky floors and everything, but entertaining and buzzing atmosphere. What do you expect in a place like that? Visiting friends elsewhere in the Manchester area always leads to plenty of good pubs though.
Youâ(TM)re a miserable fucker, arenâ(TM)t you? There are plenty of really nice pubs where I go with my family, or just to catch up with friends.
Alcohol consumption per person has been declining in the UK over the last three decades. Meanwhile, itâ(TM)s been increasing in the US. Itâ(TM)s possible that Americans now drink more than Britons. Itâ(TM)s people over 50 that drink the most in the UK; younger generations arenâ(TM)t so interested.
Never ask two questions in a business letter. The reply will discuss the one you are least interested, and say nothing about the other.
