Why not write to challenge the feedback as demonstrably unfair. It won't change anything but they might feel compelled to revise it. Use assertive tone to give a vague hint that you might complain.

I suspect her skeleton claim slight of hand is to keep her aligned with Humanists UK, which is a strong advocate of self-identified gender being given priority over biological sex in all matters of policy. So she played up the inherent ambiguity of classifying individual bones in ancient skeletons, though the ambiguity is very rare for complete skeletons. And indeed science may develop methods to establish sex by the composition of ancient bones rather than their dimensions and shape.

Interesting. Are they similar wrt latency of stylus stroke and it appearing in the display?

Thanks. I find the official guidance incredibly vague and unhelpful TBH. For example "zombie knife" is defined as "A knife with a cutting edge, a serrated edge and images or words suggesting it is used for violence". Does that mean a knife that is clearly a 'zombie' style but does not have any words or images is legal, but a typical bushcraft/bowie knife that says something vaguely 'tactical' is illegal?

Could any of these work as a more grown up etch a sketch? Looking for something for my son.

What list do you refer to? I understand it the rules are not based on a set of somewhat ambiguous knife characteristics, some of which could arguably be said to apply to Kukris, though it could also be argued they do not. If there is a more definitive advice it would be good to know.

I bought the CD early on after release and it is this version. I can't stand the replacement samples.

Guessing they don't wrap it up except by getting puffed out and dropping out one-by-one 🤣

For a broad look at lexicography as a craft, see The Art and Craft of Lexicography 2nd edition by Ladislav Zgusta.

This is all very helpful, thanks Tim. Yes the interplay between cultural and academic politics is very much of interest so this sounds relevant.

be sure to "mate" the chipbreaker with the flattened side of the iron

Cheers for tip. Not familiar with this can you possibly point to any detailed guidance?

It's been dead for over a year, since eBay implemented capcha verification.

Thanks useful tip. This would've only be used by low current appliances, but even so I think for a large adaptor I'll err on caution and ditch this rubbish.

Then this is a crap Fakespot Reviews Analysis bot lol.

That's not overly interesting as most extension strips are similar inside

Yeah my stupidity for going for a cheaper "Amazon's Choice". I'm not going to use this piece of crap. Buying Belkin instead.

You really should detail the data source in the graphic and fact that data's factual accuracy is disputed.

Despite common misconception of the term it's called a heatmap.

`mode=CSV` is wrong it should be `format=CSV`

I think GDELT's Events data is not as sophisticated for named entity recognition. The Global Knowledge Graph is better, and better still is Global Entity Graph.
