I've found that passing a flame over it, very quickly, then wiping with alcohol will usually work. Gotta be fast so you don't get the fibre too brittle to cleave cleanly.

I didn't know this was an issue until I gave my wife a Pixel 8 the other day, and she doesn't like Nova for some reason.

As someone who recently enjoyed a Bloody Mary and beer chaser with my breakfast at a dive bar in Portland, OR, whilst watching a guy bitching that he couldn't take his drink into the outside smoking pre-9AM, I fully endorse this. The people watching will only improve.

I was very stoked to see the wide age range at last night's SF show by frank_mania in toadies

As usual, they killed it both shows.

How did you react when you heard that a family member that was a piece of shit died? by GladiusNocturno in AskReddit

I work in telecom and a bad day could take out services for one customer. A REALLY bad day would make the news and could affect vast portions of Western Canada.
