have you switched delivery to neighbour on the day? i have, to a direct neighbour, and the new date given was 24hrs later. I eventually cancelled delivery of that package because i…

i have had issues with that on one occasion too, now i remember.. (package was refused by the shop, went back to the depot for another day, changing the address to my home added an…

The author is a world champion barista and ceo of Square Mile Coffee, he is not going to like the taste any of them - the taste is not the point!

I work as a messenger and yes - the way to avoid being turned into (the main issue, if you are on the inside of someone who can't see you or someone doesn't signal) is to push in f…

Cyclists do not _want_ to be hit by vehicles - if they are not stopping, they have looked around and deemed the situation to be safe enough.. That's not to say it's legal, but they…

could you "breathe" a small volume of something inert in and out, and have a CO2 scrubber?

this question exposes my ignorance of how lungs work, but in a situation where the lungs were in good working order, would carbon dioxide build up in them (to be breathed out)?

this is imo a much more interesting endevour - here's a video https://vimeo.com/69901706 really does not look at all promising right now and personally i think there's a good chanc…

so how can i access recordings away from my phone? and a delete is vital. you should really warn users that they can't delete right now.
