Ritsuko_akagi commented on Hong Kong: UK makes citizenship offer to residents   bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politic... · Posted by u/sjcsjc

> About 350,000 UK passport holders, and 2.6 million others eligible, will be able to come to the UK for five years.

Hong kong has a population of over 7 mil so this is less than half. What's the criteria for this chance at a uk citizenship?

I found a good video about the special passports given to hong kong from the uk. It is a bit complicated but this video seems to summarise the important bits quite well.[1]

I don't think there's a word like "Huh" in Hindi.

But we all use "huh?".

Tried it out. Loved it. I have one of those moderately expensive Samsung Chromebooks with its own pen, and the pressure sensitivity stuff works great. I can see myself building an art workflow around my Chromebook with Krita. Previously the only options on Chromebooks or Android were proprietary apps that had ads, including Autodesk Sketchbook which I used to love but they added ads, DeviantArt integration, and nerfed the UX.

So getting an open source, full-featured alternative is fantastic for me.

They have ads on autodesk sketchbook? When I had an android phone I paid for it and they made it free a few months later. Now I am on iphone and even the free apps have much less ads.

Funny I read about this place in r/india a few times and they seem to regard it as a racist hippie colony.

why stop at "wild" animals? might as well go whole hog (pun intended) and go plant based to the extent possible.
Ritsuko_akagi · 5 years ago
I really hope that is the future. Plant based meat or just proper free range farms and hunting I guess. Industrial meat production is too cruel and just another pandemic waiting to happen.

The 2009 swine flu epidemic originated in the states. Are you asking to shut down pig farms in the US as well?
