One less than aluminium
Didn't even realize that was a word until I looked it up.
Not sure how that relates in a conversation about tinfoil hats usage but sure why not.
I'm sure the composition of the devices has a significant performance impact on their effectiveness, worthy of discussion. :p
The successor to tin foil is aluminum foil. "Aluminum" is called "aluminium" in English-speaking countries outside the US.
Oh there we go, okay that explains it.
Yeah you guys on the other side of the pond like using extra letters in your words like 'colour'. :p
Colour is closer to you than you think (look up)
Um, by "look up", if you mean my reply, I was spelling it how it's spelled over in Europe, not America.
I mean up as in on a map. Canada, north of the US, uses colour
Ah, so you were speaking geographically, and not Lemmyically.
