You should try a Halifax Donair.
Actually…yes. At least for the “war criminal”. I think the point is that you can’t hide your inner feelings from the feather. So if you genuinely, in the deepest depths of your heart, have no qualms about bombing civilians then you’re fine.
I think this points out the fundamental relativistic nature of morality and how the feather copes with it. Everyone has some sort of moral compass, and the feather measures how true you were to it. And really, what more can you ask of anyone? Decide, for yourself, what is right and what is wrong and stick to it.
Putting aside the fact that a toddler probably lacks the intellectual or emotional development to have a truely personal morality, I cannot imagine that someone who “broods” all their life over kicking a kitten when they were three is anything other than the nicest most moral person you’ll ever meet. I don’t think that have any trouble with Anubis and Thoth.
Also, the final note on the bass is a mistake, but they left it in.
Anubis and Thoth weighing the heart of the dead to see if it is as light as a feather before letting them into the afterlife.
I love the idea that there’s no “do this, do that”, or a concrete set of rules or commandments. But the idea that if you can look back on your life, and if your heart isn’t weighed down with the burden of all of the things that you did that know we’re just wrong…then you can go on to the afterlife.
It’s just no much more of a reasonable, adult approach to morality.
I think there might be a better way to deliver “ballistic missiles to Russia”.
The travel eSIMs are a bit different. My Orange plan covers Turkey and the UK, which I specifically wanted, and probably Switzerland as well. For my wife, I needed to get a “world” plan that covered Turkey, otherwise the Europe plan would have covered the UK.
But that’s an important point. The travel plans are NOT the same as regular plans in some ways.
I would have a couple years ago. In a flash. We replaced our phones a while back specifically to have eSIMs. It truth, considering the cost of Canadian roaming plans the phones have already paid for themselves.
Both of our old phones were single SIM, so using a local SIM would mean disconnecting our Canadian numbers which would put us out of touch with people back home. Which means that this card wouldn’t have work for us either.
I was at the point of looking at buying a portable WiFi hot-spot, when I found out about eSIMs. So we went that route.
I have an Orange eSIM with a France number that I have kept alive by reactivating it at least once every 6 months. It’s good for all Europe, without roaming charges, so that’s easy to do. Having the same number all the time is convenient, but more importantly I have gone through the hassle of providing passport info to Orange, which is a government requirement if you want a number for more than a couple of weeks. I think that’s an EU thing.
The local number is good for calling hotels and for making restaurant reservations. Just having that is a game changer.
For my wife’s we don’t need a number, so I just use Nomad for her data only eSIM, and get a new one each time. The cost is about $12-15, and you get whatever carrier you get, but the service has been good so far no I keep using Nomad.
We can text each other using WhatsApp, and you can even use WhatsApp for voice calls. The sound quality is acceptable.
We bought phones that support eSIM because we do a lot of travelling. Canadian mobile companies charge usurious rates for roaming: $15/day! Times two phones. I can get 2 weeks of data only for Europe for about $11 total on an eSIM. With voice it goes up to about $25. Total.
It has changed our lives when we travel.
Note that even if you start with an integrated wifi/router you can always by a stand-alone replacement for one function and continue to use the original unit for the other. For instance, I use my ISP supplied wifi router as a router and turn off its wifi, then use mesh wifi for whole house coverage.
I don’t think that they did.
It seems weird to have a figure from Greek mythology paddling between what looks like a Christian heaven and hell.
Platinum also makes fountain pens. The Plaisir is notable because the cap seals incredibility well. The result is that it can go a loooonnnnggg time unused and the ink won’t dry out and clog it up. A great pen for those that only occasionally need to use a pen. Fairly cheap, too. Around $20, I think.
Vintage Esterbcook nibs are often quite scratchy. Late 1940’s and onwards Schaeffer pens have a much stiffer nib design and may be acceptable for modern carbon copy applications. I can’t remember what that newer nib design was called, maybe “Imperial” or something like that.
Also, the hooded nib of a Parker 51 could probably stand up to carbons too.
It’s just a modern version of “Fuzzy Logic”
It’s just as much a sport as figure skating or synchronised swimming.
You might want to think about it a bit more before putting it to work. The comment with the streams example is far, far better.
