“Produce”?
Are they importing the raw materials, then? That would seem suboptimal.
ETA: although, who’d be suspicious of hundreds of tonnes of leaves?

I’m fairly ambidexterous myself, though I write solely with my right hand. I would shoot a rifle lefty, go to bat lefty (though I’d wear a left-handed glove), and I can even draw with the left hand. Using things like a rifle or a bat feels so awkward otherwise.

This is like my BIL. He writes with his right because a pre-school program he went to, the old ladies that ran it would smack his hand if he tried to write with his left…

I was fine as a righty writer, though I was corrected a lot for using a fork or spoon with my left.

Deep-root database: Kew Garden’s 8 million specimen collection to find new life through data management
Charles Darwin’s legacy lives not just in the idea of evolution by natural selection, but also in the samples he collected.
London’s Royal Botanical Gardens in Kew house some 191 samples gathered by Darwin, including an Adiantum henslovianum fern collected from the Galápagos in 1835. It is among 8 million specimens, some of which date back 200 years, in line to be digitised at the internationally important botanical research and education institution owned by the UK government.

Vivaldi composes sweet ad-blocking symphony for users of browser’s Android version
Oslo-based Vivaldi has released an update to its Android browser replete with additional weaponry for the ongoing Tracker and Ad Blocker arms race.
Version 3.2 for Android devices (an iOS version is apparently in the pipeline) ups the ante by allowing users to select additional blocking lists as well as including custom lists in a manner that will be very familiar to those running the company’s desktop browser.
I’m confused. I thought the whole point of iOS was to lock out other browsers and force Safari
iOS allows alternative browsers (and supposedly iOS 14 will even let you set a different default) but it’s still using Safari’s WebKit rendering engine under the covers. It still allows for quite a bit of UX and behavioral customization.
must’ve changed. I had an old ipod touch for a short while maybe five or more years ago. immediately browsed to mozilla.com to install ff. nothing doing.
