Absolutely! I also love access to small, cheap electronic bits for my projects, and at the same time I’m all for protecting our postal services. A 2€ per package surcharge doesn’t practically change anything on the economy side. Temu already expects a minimum purchase of something like 20€.

My small concern with this is how it will be applied/processed by the carriers. I hope it doesn’t end up like the customs/VAT on larger packages, where they charge 10-20€ for customs clearance. But now that I write it down, for me, even that isn’t a complete blocking factor. I’d probably spend more time comparing the value of ordering direct vs from a local reseller, which is exactly the goal.

Mr. Bean actually put painstaking effort into protecting everything that shouldn’t be painted, such as the doorknob. This landlord probably just decided to let the occupants chisel free whatever outlets/thermostats/windows/doors they needed. Then later considered the chiseling as damage

I’ve had a similar experience. They accepted my email on a personal domain with a recent TLD but after about 15 minutes of connecting and browsing, I was banned. I suppose it’s because I had the audacity to use a VPN l, but their response was basically no more helpful— “you violated the T&Cs.”

I haven’t been on Vinted since.

A specific flavour of X-ray diffraction: Dark-field imaging

0.729 Å, 17 keV.

Why? Nostalgia from running measurements at this wavelength with the bros.

Second best? 1 Å,12.398 keV

There used to be. There still are but there used to be, too.

😱

That sounds reasonable. My little lady is almost 4 years and 850 g. Her cagemate is a younger and much less active gentleman who has developed an excess of chonk at 1110 g.

She was heavier and had some thyroid issues that caused weight loss but she’s stabilized now. My advice is to do weekly weigh-ins. If she’s stable, it should be ok.

If you notice she seems to be always ravenous and/or moody, that’s how we first picked up on the thyroid issue, coupled with a noticeable weight loss (as in feeling different when picking her up, not even needing a scale).

We’ve used Bambo, made in Denmark for my child. They’re distributed in a number of countries, including Germany and France. Online pharmacy/parapharmacy stores like Atida often carry them at a good price.
