AliExpress at least lets you buy close to the source of a lot of goods that you won’t find made elsewhere than China. Some stuff I find there exists from European makers, latest example, trim clips for cars: you can buy Restagraf but you need to live near a car body shop supplier that will be willing to sell you a few clips without insane markups.

At the current rate (which may or may not hold and may or may not be legitimate) the initiative should beat “One of Us”, the biggest one yet with 1.9M signatures (pro-life, ultimately did nothing).

They are supposed to meet with the seven people who first put the initiative forward. It won’t change their minds if they’re already against the initiative but if they don’t care it may sway them to hear it explained to them. I have zero expectations since EU bureaucrats live in a parallel dimension but there’s some hope something happens.

Levi’s in Europe has been shit for decades so welcome to the club. Sadly it seems only premium denim isn’t fragile shit nowadays.

When you’re on the current regime’s side you’re a freedom fighter so it’s all fine.

Their sticker price doesn’t have tax, ours has the insane VAT rates already included. That doesn’t help. We still get shafted for a lot of consumer goods.

If you’re coding with them you can already try small ones, unless you need bigger than A4 size for each it isn’t insanely expensive.

Aren’t the impacts painful? I’ve used small hammers that were all steel and they weren’t there for violence unless you like waking up the tendinitis demon.

Mine turns off in the dark so that may help. I based my remarks off the manual. Good to know they’re pessimistic.

It’s not that inconvenient considering how shitty the Signal desktop experience is: it’s slow, bloated and has moody sync.

SimpleX is anonymous and works well.

The plain old digital ones with solar + radio time syncing are the best tool watches on the market in my opinion : set and forget, it even does DST automatically. The only limitation is you have to be outside during the day with the watch exposed a few hours a month or cheat with other light sources.
