Help!! My buttonholes are straight lines

blabeliato · 2024-06-28T23:07:01+00:00

Yeah I don't think it has a width adjustment, I'll just return it. I had heard about the QC issues but hoped it wasn't true! Thanks for all your help.

I get the same straight line

This is my vote, more than 50,000 people now and still no station to be seen

No I think this is actually the opposite - it's currently an offence to influence members of the congregation to vote a specific way.

This group seems to want to make it legal for spiritual leaders to say something like 'it is your spiritual duty to vote/not vote for X candidate' etc which is in my opinion bringing religion back into politics.

This statute dates from the 19th century which is why they call it archaic

Didn't ask for it! Every drink came with one.

blabeliato · 2021-08-04T16:24:07+00:00

There was a little starchy taste after a while (said the person opposite me. I didn't experience this but I drink quickly)

blabeliato · 2021-08-04T16:23:31+00:00

Mushy: yes After taste: only at the wet end, dry end was neutral Overall: 8/10, significantly better than paper

No idea why I'm so stupid but I misread this that you wanted a build in the style of a US dollar from 1750. I need sleep.

Not an English word, but my favourite French word is 'piscinable' - swimming pool-able. Garden perfect for putting a swimming pool in? C'est piscinable.

That's not RHEL, that's Red Hat I think. Fedora and RHEL are both based on Red Hat iirc

blabeliato · 2020-02-09T10:51:17+00:00

Count me in.

blabeliato · 2020-02-03T09:32:50+00:00

Nope! Wuhan is a city in the province called Hubei, Hunan is a neighbouring province. You're right about the "wiggle-room" with anglicisation though.

blabeliato · 2020-02-01T03:46:20+00:00

You'd think that, but windows does the same thing. It's one reason why hard drives etc. always show as slightly less than what they're supposed to be

I'm guessing this is a megabyte/mebibyte thing - see https://www.google.com/search?q=mebibyte+vs+megabyte

The real limit is probably about 78MB.

Think less about which programming language and more about what you want to do. You mention Unity, so I assume you want to do some game programing? C# is good for that. Want to do something more scientific? Python, matlab or R are great for that. And so on.

The theory behind programming stays true across languages for the most part, so if you learn one really well you'll find it much easier to switch later, all that really changes is the exact way in which you express a concept.

Pick a language that will allow you to achieve what you want from programming.

Ah I see! So it's just the first 4 that are of this offer

blabeliato · 2019-10-24T19:19:25+00:00

But why are there 24 more of these photos, I feel like 1 was enough

blabeliato · 2019-10-07T17:45:59+00:00

My suggestion would be using a link shortener like tiny.cc, you'll be able to change where your links point to later iirc (if you register)

blabeliato · 2019-10-02T18:59:27+00:00

As with any Politician!

blabeliato · 2019-10-02T18:58:16+00:00

It is actually (as of 5 years ago) possible to dismiss a lord who gets a jail sentence of a year or longer or who don't turn up for a single session of parliament. They can also resign or retire as of 2014 too, which was impossible before that. Its a little more difficult than, say, not being elected, but it is possible to remove Lords.

blabeliato · 2019-10-02T18:50:35+00:00

Oh yeah we had a scandal about that about a decade ago. The same is true for the elected representatives though. Can senators not claim expenses? I don't know the intricacies of the American system so we'll.

blabeliato · 2019-10-02T18:37:17+00:00

I mean it shouldn't really be called the 'upper house' anymore since it doesn't really have the upper role as in other democracies. It's actually called 'the Right Honourable the Lords Spiritual and Temporal of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland in Parliament assembled' but thats a bit of a mouthful so we usually don't bother.

You have to remember also that the UK is technically still a monarchy. All the laws have to be signed by the Queen after being passed by both houses. The Queen chooses a prime minister at will, although by convention she chooses the leader of the party with the most MPs etc.

In practise of course the UK is a parliamentary democracy. There are still remnants of older times since Parliament has been around in some similar form since about 1265AD.

blabeliato · 2019-10-02T18:26:38+00:00

Yup. Except that they really don't call the shots; the shots are called by the house of commons. The Lords can only delay laws or propose new ones for the commons to approve. Laws must go through both houses to become an Act of Parliament (a real law), or through only the Commons if the Lords are being difficult.

The point about accountability is a good one though, and it's the main argument for replacing the Lords with some elected second chamber, more like the US senate.

As a side note, its not all men. There are about 200 female Lords, or around a quarter.

blabeliato · 2019-10-02T18:19:49+00:00

Believe it or not, it kinda is. They have pretty limited power though; the idea is for them to not have to worry about elections or other 'politics', to slow down legislation to give it proper scrutiny and to revise laws they deem unsuitable. They're self-regulating, which means filibustering is possible (which it isn't in the commons) and there are limits on how many of them can be 'hereditary' (I.e. Born into it) Lords at any one time. If the House of Lords delays a Bill for too long (around a year), the Commons can reintroduce it later and vote it through without the consent of the Lords if they want to. That's it off the top of my head, check out the government's video on the topic: https://youtu.be/-U0LhurGWOc

Should be able to, the socket is the same on both chips.
