Good history here (and, you're not incorrect) -
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Passport : modern passports 1920s.
"While the United Nations held a travel conference in 1963, no passport guidelines resulted from it. Passport standardization came about in 1980, under the auspices of the ICAO.
ICAO standards include those for machine-readable passports.
Such passports have an area where some of the information otherwise written in textual form is written as strings of alphanumeric characters, printed in a manner suitable for optical character recognition.
This enables border controllers and other law enforcement agents to process these passports more quickly, without having to input the information manually into a computer."
Another EU purchaser here. I've passed the link around - I think there would be many people over here that would be interested.
Also...consider, dare I say it, Windows?
Or am I mis-reading "delightful, Mac-tastic software
Photon Transfer is designed with love exclusively for your Mac", though I'm sure the usb c is er...bipartisan?
I'd say 30% of the people I know use a mac, the rest windows, all with linux for work etc.
*getting stuff from the states via post is no problem, just gotta check on import fees (relatively easy to circumnavigate, but I'd rather not).
>and by far windows is more annoying with pop ups.
I get no pop ups apart from required system messages (confirming deletes, admin account req'd - which is the most stupidest Windows thing ever...I am the administrator).
Do you mean in your browser?
Horseshoe crab-counting...the hyphen makes a [UK English only?] difference.
I found it hard to read - I thought they may have crowd-sourced some telescope buffs.
First message: p 0 r n, s i 7 e
Second message: dot
Third message: come on over.
Forth message: Sorry my mistake, organising the house.
After a while the second, third and fourth won't be required.
Jeeze...we learned obfuscation fucking years ago (torrenting was punishable then, probably is still, and a few people may be made examples of, by ip tracking etc as subscribing becomes more disliked).
Always
NOT surprised why politicians get exempted from these kind of rules. You would think they would set the good example.
They're not stupid, and they're NOT example-setters (very few exceptions) - for myself.
#never voted, and very proud of it.

I believe it to be more common in the EU to have dangly bits (metal fencing?) that hangs from the barrier to the floor. when the barrier lifts up they 'fold' vertical. This presents a proper barrier (that stops kids, cyclists, pedestrians from getting under the barrier when deployed), the 'struts' are painted red and white so they're very visible.
*can't speak for absolutely everywhere, but my ride to work there are two sets of tracks I pass that have barriers that are designed to stop the stupid. Oh, I guess self-driving vehicles, too, now.
I get no spam, until I send something...then it's an avalanch for a few weeks then they dry up until next time I need DHL (or, indeed, any other carrier - €40 to send a registered letter, DHL priced themselves out of my budget).
I have a choice of three very-local pharmacies. I stuck with one, and now they know me (10+yrs) they'll give me a prescription, and get the note from the doc (electronically) shortly, after holidays etc. I'm just honest with the doc - and he's 400m from the pharm, so no shenanigans there.
...psychedelics have been around for thousands of years.
People like trippin'.
"Jazz isn't dead, it just smells funny"
It would send a very convincing message, though.
Should 'decadelong' be two words?
>Nor does one hot day make summer.
You're not from the UK.
I always heard it closed due to the threat of terrorism...
>Charging should have a cost and the chargers should be made in the USA with the Tesla standard plug.
Why so the USA?
Comment might not be helpful, but it's very true.
Gdpr doesn't stop recordings...they just tell you it may be used for "training puropses".
Auditing Britain, dj media and dje media on yt would care to differ.

8-10 regular sites, then mindless scrolling. Hundreds of bookmarks I'll never re-visit.
I do miss forums.
Thanks to whom I enjoy two days off a week and, the safety dude immediately corrected something I'd pointed out as dangerous 5 years ago.
