A ballistic vest meant to stop a bullet “is definitely going to keep you safe from a sandwich thrown at you," Sean Dunn's defense attorney argued.

Cat wearing a removable bib.

@dieworkwear.bsky.social I'm looking for a nice mid-length wool (or heavyweight linen) coat and noticed a trend towards removable "bibs" in many new coats. This trend is a crime against humanity worse than dress sneakers, right? Any recommendations ~$500 please? Can be new or used.

A Cannondale CAAD8 bicycle leaning against a wall.

Has someone in Jersey recently had your Cannondale CAAD8 bicycle stolen? This one sitting unlocked for nearly two weeks at my workplace. No rust, nice bike in perfect condition. There is a Mark Pickford's shop sticker, but sadly they don't know whose it is.

Fuck the Raiders. Tell people it's a Breeders tattoo. (and yes, also drunk in photo)

Anyone have a working "cellular" connection for your Apple watch in Jersey? I bought one as a gift, and was disappointed to see it warn that Jersey Telecoms network do not support this feature. support.apple.com/en-gb/119601

I’m not crying, you’re crying

Might this data be subject to FOI requests? For example, a list of reporters who signed, or at least which news organizations are compliant?

Also, does Hegseth add you to his Signal groups once you sign up? Could be worth it, that's all I'm saying.

Freight companies serving the island operate UK->JE forwarding services that profit off the current restrictions, so it may not be in their financial interest to contact Amazon and resolve it. But it's hard to blame them and the cause is unclear. So for now, Jersey consumers pay more, as per usual.

The item in the listing is a 10,000mAh portable charger. Now, I can order a laptop containing an even larger capacity battery for delivery to Jersey no problem, so the battery does not seem to be the issue. But that's what their help pages cite.

Error message displayed on Amazon UK website for products they refuse to ship to Jersey.

"This item cannot be shipped to your selected delivery location."

An ever-increasing number of listings on the Amazon UK website like this. Originally due to air freight restrictions on certain hazardous cargo, but obsolete now that all Jersey freight comes by boat.

Is there anything users can do?

Four dimmable LED lightbulbs, in their packaging and of different manufacturer and types.

For years, most dimmable LED bulbs I bought would flicker or buzz annoyingly with touch control lamps. But today at Romeril's, they suggested "trailing edge" dimmable LEDs which work perfectly! I had no idea. You will never find that level of service online, so don't forget to try your local shops.

Check your ad blocker settings for "Annoyances" filter lists to enable. Test a couple different ones though, some block too much for mainstream use.

A Chick-fil-A sandwich, or something vegan on whole grain? It matters, dammit.

Thanks, I'm with Islands now, but my experience has been very poor. I keep having to file a Petty Debts case against the other driver to get what I'm owed. In my view, policyholders deserve at least a cursory effort to defend their claims. Especially when dashcam footage proves their claim.

Any auto insurance recommendations for Jersey? My policy is up for renewal and I'm looking for a company with better customer service.

Just read Zeke Faux's "Number Go Up" and that really comes through - there are really only three kinds of people deeply involved in crypto:

1. Scammers
2. Morons
3. Scammers who are also morons

Holy shit indeed. Remember when we did this to the Bahamas? No war then, unless this was a "war on drugs" thing. theintercept.com/2014/05/19/d...

And the Hillman Hall of Minerals and Gems (same museum) is also pretty impressive. These photos came out OK but do not match the vivid, deep colors present when you see this in person.

If you like dinosaurs, Pittsburgh's Carnegie Museum of Natural History is not to be missed. That's a huge selection of fossils on display in the Kamin Hall of Dinosaurs.

Pittsburgh has a bicycle museum called "Bicycle Heaven", which I visited for the first time this weekend. The place is wild. Two floors rammed full of everything bicycles, plus workshops & bike hire, etc.

Half-gallon jug of whole milk with bowl of cereal and fruit behind. In small print at the bottom, the milk jug label states "From local Guernsey cows", with the name of an Ohio, USA farm above.

I'm visiting beautiful West Virginia and just bought whole milk from a local shop. It is EXCELLENT and wasn't homogenized, which made me double-check the label. "From local Guernsey cows" in fine print at the bottom. Shoulda known...

I'm pleased to see this, but your RSS feed for subscribers now combines both languages. Can separate feeds be created, please? Or if that's too much work, try more descriptive URLs so we can filter (e.g. /en/, /es/, ...). Thanks.

It's been a while, but I loved it so much I used the name "Tommy Yungas" for years when we moved back to the US. This really confused my teachers. Here's La Paz & Lake Titicaca, mid-1970's.

Its a vicious circle perpetuated by Big Air Freshener, someone vomits in your car and now you need two air fresheners, and so on. Air fresheners? Not even once.

National Westminster Bank Plc (NatWest) emailed me another customer's full details 4 months ago, and refuse to reply or acknowledge a data breach. So, I complained to the UK ICO, who gave them 30 days to reply, which has now passed. Any Data Protection experts out there, and what would you try next?
