People who pay by phone on the tube during rush hour in London are a monstrous pain in the ass as it takes longer for the device to do its thing than it takes for Oyster or contactless, which are instant. This means that the rhythm of people going through the barriers is disturbed, and minor

Spot the Spotty?

A couple of pictures here from 1963 showing Malcolm X with a Spotmatic, and presumably a 50mm lens. I wonder if his pictures have ever been published. https://rarehistoricalphotos.com/malcolm-x-kidding-around-muhammad-ali-1963/ That must be why they later chose the designation MX… --
