Huh, TIL. What’s it intended for then?

I hope so but they’ve lost my loyality so I’d have to be impressed to return to them

Considering the Nothing phone next

Totally agree. I’m on restricted duties at the moment so meet all of my clients on teams. I hate it. The audio is terrible so one or both of us is always mishearing, my desk is in front of a window so I have to keep my curtains closed for them to see me. I don’t get to build the same rapport with them and their responses to my questions are more stilted because of it. A large part of my job is judging body language and reading non-verbal cues, which is next to impossible on teams.

And on monday, my computer decided to do a mandatory, 3 hour update, so I missed an appointment and couldn’t access the client’s number to apologise or explain. So I had to text a colleague to run over to the client’s office let them know I wasn’t going to make it

My 2 was amazing, it lasted me years and worked so well with minimal bloat. I went for the 10pro this time and it’s not the same. The camera’s phenomenal but it’s now two years old and just not holding up well. Glitches like crazy and the battery’s starting to die. Can’t distinguish it from any other phone now

Oneplus have paired with Hasselblad, if you’re looking for something with a good camera. I regret the phone because the quality has gone downhill over the generations but the camera is on point

Yeah but it’s still a third of the price

Just here to let you all know that mine is currently 1. Living in the middle of nowhere has its benefits, at times

Yeah, probably an old wives tale, I guess

I can’t speak for all women but I think I’d try to have enough of both food and pads/tampons if I could. Pads are much more efficient at absorbing than a bundle of cloth and are cleaner, so wouldn’t cause thrush and other infections

Pads and tampons are also good first aid supplies - I think tampons were first invented to plug bullet holes

Yes, well done. The US is behind Iraq and Zimbabwe so of course nothing needs to be done in the US until those countries sort their shit out

Yeah, by stuffing moss and bundles of cotton in their knickers. If it’s a choice of that or stocking up on pads when I’m raiding Tesco, I know which one I’d rather

Yeah, seeing that they have a physical location has ruined me

Yeah, I like the sustainability of it - and there’s so much that knitters can make use of

No problem. I’m always on the look out for sustainablity in the craft world so got a bit excited when I saw this

Eh, if he’s already saying it, might as well make it true

Imagine being selected for jury on this case. It’d be so surreal

‘nothing of value’ - I think purplepuppy was suggesting that people/migrants/human lives have value

Something like this but make it longer, do a knot hood and find a simple colourwork pattern?

Or this, with a hood and in black and white?

It depends how comfortable you are modifying patterns, I guess pp

The reason I never made socks is because I hated how the heel flap looked and was too intimidated by all of the others. Bit the bullet and decided to try with FLK and never gone back. I think that the instructions are a little overexplained but, overall, it’s a very easy and rhymic pattern.

I’ve started experimenting with the ratio of side heel:centre heel:side heel and have found that I prefer the heel to be ⅔ of the total circumference, so you might want to try a few alterations once you’re familiar with it.

Thanks, that’s the one I’ve seen recommended the most, I reckon
