Developers who push their customers to pay subscription pricing, rather than selling their software, demand an orchestra of the tiniest violins to play a lament for their suffering.

Getting away from the overwhelming yellow / sepia, and back towards blues and olives. The ability of these competitors to skate backwards as well as they do forwards (often flipping direction right in front of us) was always super-impressive.

The scrum, almost outnumbered by referees.

Duelling Jammers; a really neat result of two competitors performing the same role, with the motion trails of their helmets mirroring each other.

While I feel I shouldn't alter any of the content of this #NormanSolomon book, I'm just stripping bad code from the #EPUB and reformatting it to be a better #eBook... I really can't overlook this word "strodemocraticnger" that's in the PDF, and presumably the print version as well.

It's like "stronger" and "democratic" climbed into one of the teleporters from The Fly.

Kids, this is why you don't use #InDesign to produce #EPUB #eBooks.

"The problem here is that Jonny Ive is not a great designer generally and he's got no idea how to design a car. That will be because Dieter Rams never designed cars so he doesn't have a design to copy and claim as his own."

Nice to see I'm not the only one who thinks Ive is just a second-rate Rams imitator. I keep looking at this Ferrari Luce, and the most impressive thing is that Ive convinced Ferrari to bankroll an Ive car.

Then again, Eddie Cue, Apple's Services VP is on the Ferrari board.

The thing that's becoming more clear with regards to how the #EV market is developing, given all the high end manufacturers are ditching or scaling back their EV commitments, and even re-introducing manual transmissions, is that people who like cars enough to buy premium, performance cars, with perhaps the exception of Rolls-Royce's customers, don't value any of the "advantages" of electric, over the viscerality of ICE for the car that isn't a cheap domestic appliance.

One of the images where the particular colour tint given to the highlights of the pink uniforms revealed a huge difference. Pink toned, it was just more pink, but shifted over to blue, and it leapt up as a layer of almost white overlay.

As I continue to read through #NormanSolomon's book "The Blue Road to Trump Hell" while stripping the terrible code #Adobe #InDesign output in the #EPUB version, the thing that stands out is how the #DNC simply haven't understood; the #USPol electorate post-Obama isn't the same as pre.

No #Centrist can build the necessary coalition on the left, because the fundamental hypocrisy of the Centrist position, that corporate agendas are compatible with the #Democrat voter base, is electorally toxic.
