In any reasonable country, that should be illegal. In many places it is

I always heard this for decades and still am not convinced the average human really thinks 199 is any different than 200. I don’t know a single person who doesn’t recognise it as a cheap uneffective trick

Why are you asking women and not parents?

How would random laywers have access to your number?

Microsoft website does this (especially their useless answer), I guess it’s malice

(Assuming you are using your smartphone) check your battery saving options. Sometimea battery saving for the entire phone or for the clock app can make it less “respondent” to times

Why is it so obsessed with “white dudes”? Even if you are soecifically tagreting them, it seems odd to keep repeating it, especially since people who are goinf to vote a black woman of asian origins as preaident should tend not to be white supremacists

It has a better car navigation interface and some nice features like traffic amd live events data, but it really looks like it’s update much, if any at all. Organic Maps is a little more barebone, but it constatly gets new features

I never undertand the more granular, the scale is in 180 because that’s the most precision they could use to manufacture scientific thermometers, nowadays it’s completely irrelevant. Celsius thermometers have a granularity of 0.1°C and that is useful soley when you want to differentiate between “almost a slight fever” and “maybe a slight fever”. Do you find yourself needing to differentiate between 45 °F and 46 °F?

Unless you have some kind of color blindness, orange is among the most noticeable colors to the human eyes, especially in an urban background

Some professors kept the online exams for convenience (theirs and for the students depending on the type of exam), but did in presence in a university class, they dropped the recording but kept the lockdown environment so you cannot cheat even with your laptop

I mean, there are tons of perfectly good, useful and well-moderated community. It’s not unlike reddit or lemmy

Just invret two letters in a wrod that are not the first or the last. You will read just fine and prboably not even notice. Like this cmoment you just read

That’s because gmail automatically adds .ics files to your calendar. I don’t even think there’s a way to disable it. I checked and my solution was to not use gmail for those things. For spam emails luckily I don’t have this problem

There are browser estensions that do it, don’t remember the name though

You’ll be surprised how much you can do with wine and mono. But even so, switching and getting a vm is a viable option
