I’m English, I assure you people here eat them all the time!

Are you sure they were invented in America? That seems very unlikely to be true so I googled it, wikipedia says recipes for muffins appeared as early as 1747 in English cookbooks…

Most English people don’t even know what an English Muffin is

Just in case it’s not obvious, they mean an English muffin, a kind of flat bread roll. In the UK that’s what they sell for breakfast at McDonald’s (sausage and egg, bacon and egg etc).

Big whoosh

I didn’t know about GCompris, I’m going to try it out with my daughter.

It’s on Fdroid as well which is cool!

Jesus, how high were the parents when they made that decision?

Sounds maddening!

Mostly I was posting the information above in case someone else has a beeping fire alarm system as it might be like our one and not like yours. I can’t imagine that one took off!

I’ve lived in a place with a fire alarm system like that, but the beep is because the backup battery is flat or the unit needs to be replaced.

Most smoke detectors are essentially a small radioactive lump with a Geiger counter next to it; if smoke gets in between it blocks the radiation and if the number of radiation “hits” falls below a threshold in a set time period the alarm goes off. So, as radioactive things have a half life, there’s a point where the radiation emitted falls below the original threshold and you need to replace it. We fucked around with the batteries in ours for ages assuming one of them was low, but eventually replaced the detector itself and the beeping stopped.

I’m pretty sure Ukraine doesn’t have enough ATACMS to completely change the situation. I’m confident they will find clever ways to make Russia hurt with them though, they always use the weapons they are given to good effect.

That’s also a nice compliment though, I.e. it’s so good they think people would pay for it!

Yep, personal tutors etc

All of this also applies to women saying horrible things being called out by other women who they respect / think are part of their social group.

And only to men, because of course there aren’t any women who hate on trans people!

I don’t like musicals but this film is amazing, truly one of a kind. Absolutely worth watching!

To ship it they have to work out how to build that version themselves from source though - that’s their whole thing. It’s not like a normal app store where they take pre-built binaries from the developer.

That’s a strong wrist. Too much self-pleasure!

Circumference, not width

“Append…before”, AKA “prepend”!

What’s sobe?

Was it that the PDF produced by latex was less OCR friendly than the word one, or just that you didn’t submit the PDF at all most of the time?

I guess if you trained a program to OCR PDFs that are produced by word it might get really good at that and less good at PDFs from other sources.

I’m curious if your CV font was computer modern?
