I buy my domains from gandi.net. They have reasonable prices and many years ago had better T&Cs than some of the others but I haven't looked properly in over 15 years.

Just got myself a lovely little Mac desktop app called Divvy. I can set a short cut to initiate it willy nilly, but I am struggling to find a free shortcut that I am not currently using for some other program already.
It seems I can only make a short cut made up of two keys, such as Shift + Letter. Any suggestions for a combo that isn't already in common use? -

I use Moom to do window management, and have CTRL + 1/2/3/4 as different window sizes/positions. They not free for you?

What shrooms are these? Bought some compost from local garden centre, rehomed the strawberries and hey presto got some mushrooms!
Shrooms in the leftover bag of compost too.

can't remember exactly but they're bad, spray them with bleach to kill. We had some recently

Basically want disc replacement for this
Do you mean that you already have a Whisky No 7 fork for rim brake that you plan to swap for an equivalent fork for disc brake?

The picture looks more like Bolbitius titubans - specifically the glutinous cap surface matches that better than the Leucocoprinus birnbaumii described in the article.
You'd have to check the gills etc. to be sure though, I am not an expert etc. etc.
Anyway, whatever useful work the mycelium might be doing in the soil, the mushrooms are just dumping spores into your air. I'd probably get rid of them even if they're not the poisonous ones.

If I'm travelling at 4mph (about 3.5 knots) against a tide of 6 knots, does that mean I will just be going backwards? Or because it's water and I'm on top of it, is that not how it works?
-
• #109565
You’d be going backwards at around 2.5 knots. No? If you didn’t move against the tide you’d be pulled backwards with it at around 6 knots, depending on your buoyancy and drag. I feel I’m missing something though.

Depends whether the method you've used to measure your speed measures it relative to the water or relative to the ground.

Wiki:
The speeds of vessels relative to the fluids in which they travel (boat speeds and air speeds) are measured in knots
Which implies you'll be going backward relative to a fixed reference point.

Good points. The 4mph was the average mph from a sports watch using a kayak, so i assume it's 'land 4mph'.
I feel I'm missing something also, Just tickeled my curiosity.

average mph from a sports watch
Using GPS, presumably, in which case the frame of reference is terra firma. If you're doing a ground speed of 4mph directly into a 6kt counterflow, your water speed is 9.5kt

Are road sign distances based on the actual route or point to point as the crow flies?

I watched Chris Hoy's Keirin programme on iPlayer. He said in Japan riders have to announce their tactics pre race. If a rider is deemed to not have attempted those tactics are they penalised?

If a roadsign says a location is x miles away, is that straight line distance, or via the road
-
• #109575
I understood you, I just can’t imagine why any jurisdiction would measure that distance in a straight line rather than via the indicated route.
I observed this bitd when I had some .co.uk domain names in the early to mid 00s. It happened to a couple of mine. It didn’t look like it was the domain/hosting company doing it because I’d used the likes of 123reg, but the .com’s got registered fairly soon after and sat with a holding company. I also noticed when I gave up my own domain after about 10 years, that my .co.uk domain name pretty quickly got re-registered and sat with a holding company with a ‘buy me for $$$’ on it.
