Finally came back to trying out the homebrew cider I whipped up about 3 months ago. It has spent the time since then in bottles and cooling in the fridge. Tried it today. Bit of a tang, but very fizzy. No idea how strong, but tastes more like scrumpy than cider to my tastebuds

@Entropy72 @Jester2109 the cloud is probably pectin haze (but the only way to fix that is before bottling)

Technology this, technology that, it's all poppycock! At heart, Government will always revolve around paper. It burns quicker.

@TomChivers The Dunning- Kruger effect is what makes a little knowledge dangerous, surely?

I see people saying "a little knowledge is a dangerous thing" but I honestly wonder if it's more dangerous than no knowledge. My *guess* would be that knowing a bit about a thing is almost always better than knowing nothing about a thing, and that danger decreases with knowledge.

@soozaphone @bekijane @statsguyuk And you don't have fish sauce, get some... it's cheap, tasty and versatile (as an ingredient, it would be loathsome as a condiment)

@statsguyuk @soozaphone me too, although the balance between "interesting food I can make with what I have" and "food that the kids will eat" always ends in disappointment.

Or, to put it another way, "this demonstrate[s] how deformed the politics of some who consider themselves ‘moderate’ are."

A 'political prisoner'? He was jailed for firearms offences, following a terrorist attack on a furniture company intended to increase sectarian tension. You giant bellend.
Aaron Bastani@AaronBastani

The responses to this demonstrate how deformed the politics of some who consider themselves ‘moderate’ are. Sands was an elected MP, a political prisoner and died while on hunger strike during the peak of the troubles. These things should be remembered so we never go back.

@jgitchell @CDCTobaccoFree If they wanted to actually address the issues, they might well have got beyond the very first sentence before playing the the 'tainted COI' card. If.

My children have decided the only music they want to listen to is the Penguins From Madagascar Christmas album, how is your lockdown going?

@patriciakova @WHO Do we have any reason to think that there isn't a period of immunity? And if there isn't, how do people beat the virus?

@Entropy72 People seeking information on a blatantly moronic, obviously incorrect 'theory' get exposed to other bits of moronic conspiracy bollocks? Colour me shocked.

@crossbow2112 @Alan_Beard1 At that time nobody really understood what was going on. The WHO "ban or restrict" policy became clear to us later on. So if "ban" was off the table, the "restrict" (as tobacco) was next. Ray Story only stating the obvious and unavoidable. It did piss us off enormously however.

Not trying to be a rabble -rouser here, just curious. If you were a UK Vape forum user 2013 => Do you think there was a certain element who ACTIVELY undermined any attempts at organised activism? *actively = argued the toss, beyond what's reasonable

@Luc_Van_Daele @Alan_Beard1 Ray Story wanted ecigs to be treated as tobacco - like they are in the US. If he had got his way we'd be proper fucked at this point.
