No, no. This is a female and females aren’t allowed to game.

Could also be that Asus knew a picture like this would come out, so gave her a free laptop to get the ROG brand in a prominent place.

For those who didn’t read the article and only this post and are a bit confused: her account was used to sell counterfeit goods and not used to make purchases. NBA/Adidas sued for IP infringement for selling the counterfeits.

MP stopped from boarding Air Canada flight as ‘his name was Mohammad’

The title is a bit clickbaity. He wasn’t stopped from boarding, he had to go through additional security checks. He claims he was told he had to go through the checks because his name was Mohammad… although that’s just him saying that.

I live in UK and I’d say around 50% of the flights I’ve taken to/from US I’ve been pulled aside for extra checks. Many times both on the way out and way back for a 100% check rate on that single trip.

If they did actually say it was due to his name being Mohammad then yeah that’s really bad, but this sounds like they’re making something of nothing. And at no point was he stopped from boarding.

Artisans Cooperative: An Etsy alternative, owned and run by artists and makers

They still have 9.5% commission(or this drops to 8.5% if you pay $1000 artisan fee!), compared to Etsy which works out to be around 11-12% on most of the items I sell.

It also doesn’t link with my inventory management software. Etsy does, eBay does, Woocommerce does, Facebook does. It also doesn’t integrate with my shipping software, so I need to manually generate labels.

The benefits seem very minimal for a lot of caveats. If you have 1 or 2 products then fine, but when you have 10’s or 100’s of products, the time to list these on a site that will have a lot less traffic is way too long. I have a 2% gain in my profit margin, but a tonne more hassle.

Pizza Rule

But the 2 12” pizzas have more crust, so it depends what you prefer.

I’m wholly in the pizza centre and fuck the crust camp. But for those who like the crust…
