Pretty sure they just poured silver nitrate over glass. You can still buy kits to do that to re-silver old mirrors for the original look. From what I can find, the layered ones were older, and they used tin and mercury which made breaking a mirror a rather unlucky event.

You can see the text on the front of them for what they are for. Blue are regular passports for casual travel. Red are diplomatic passports for high ranking officials. Green are special passports for senators, MPs or government workers on official business. White temporary passports are usually issued abroad where a Canadian citizen has an urgent requirement to travel but doesn’t have a passport for whatever reason.

Yeah, we found a way to bypass the parental lock on our old C-Band satellite system. The glory days.

Bought the same CPU again and stuck it in an ASUS board and it is still running today. I know they have a better reputation these days, but this is the kind of thing that just shouldn’t happen.

They’re pretty much the only EVs that have that much range. But the fit and finish on the Ioniq makes it a luxury car by comparison. And they don’t have that Musky smell about them.

That’s pretty much it. You shouldn’t be berating him for supporting Russia so much as you should be cheerleading him supporting Ukraine.
Gross. Love it. Bream Theater is interesting too though.
I think you are right. I keep finding different ways they did it, so sounds like the 1800s was a busy period in the development of mirror technology!
