Haven't been able to get decent tea out Sri Lanka since about 2005... Fuck war but also, production has been moving from high altitude to low altitude, which produces a lower class tea IMO but is also cheaper to grow.

First flush, estate, Darjeeling. Done with the proper temp water in traditional tea pot.

If you have to add flavor to the the tea leaves, looking at you Earl Grey, then it is most likely a crap quality tea.

How do you think they would look? To get the news web page in your example, you are still going to have to have to render the page by running the client-side scripts required by modern websites and render some type of markup language for layout. It's not like web pages are secretly sitting in pure text on a server somewhere...

You are conflating content with delivery protocol. The websites would look the same regardless of protocol.

Look, no campaign wants to annoy voters but also they want everyone to be contacted. Just respond with "STOP" and it will stop. Unfortunately, every campaign buys your data so nearly ever campaign will send you a text.

Also, they use various services to send these texts so each the numbers sent from will change so you can't just block them.

What happens if you make a mistake with your initial instructions?

Gideon the Ninth. Hands down. The book is 100% strong female POV, which I usually like, but as dude, I was missing a lot of subtlety. My kid lent me their audio book and holy shit, Moira Quirk does an absolutely fantastic job. The characters jump right out of the speakers and into my brain, highlighting all the understated humor that I was missing. 10/10, wish I could hear it again for the first time.

All the best people volunteer. I stand by this. Sorry you had an experience with a shitty person also volunteering. Part of non-profit management is dealing with shitty volunteers.
