Reading through their mail merge tutorial, their method looks insanely risky: putting all addresses in "to" and rembering to click another button.

"Gourmetally free", surely, without the oppression of the squeamish crowds?

IIRC Cloudflare is the only registrar that doesn't mark up from wholesale prices, or something like that. Basically makes them cheaper than most other registrars. I think the point is that they can then sell you their other (related) services more easily — the services that actually make them money.

Pure speculation: could this have been motivated, to any extent, by some desire to maintain a predictable portion of the population conscriptable, given that only men are conscripted?

The war isn't going quite in the way Putin would have hoped, after all.

Isn't soap technically self-dirtying since it's supposed to get dirt to cling to it rather than your skin?

Aka "(Korean) Italy towels".

My tech background is in the fact that our family computer in the early 2000s wasn't powerful enough to do much and my parents wouldn't pay for games, so I spent a ton of time digging around in Control Panel and system files and messing up the BIOS settings.

My studies have all been in the humanities and I've never worked in an actual tech role; I got into scripting and self-hosting because I'm lazy, I like FOSS, and I like systems that work in the way I tell them to rather than how someone else thinks they should work.

An umbrella makes a crazy difference, I basically won't leave the house without at least a lightweight one in summer.

Note not all umbrellas block UV equally though.

Investment bankers would like a word (but they probably don't have time).
