It says distributors and importers. That’s what Google is via the Play Store. Still no reason I can see the disallow side loading, but Google’s lawyers, or the EU’s, may see it differently.

Values are crucial. Your politics tell me your values.

Wait until people find out about the Linux kernel. It does so many things!

Yes, but they also use IP addresses to try to stop banned users from opening new accounts.

My EDC is a Spyderco Para 3, but IMHO Kershaw is a great budget brand. I really like the Iridium, but the finish is a bit too delicate for my taste because I keep my knife in the same pocket with my keys.

There are other kinds of monitors that come pretty close, but definitely not for under $100. For example, the Nebula display on some Asus laptops, or the Nixeus NX-EDG34S (which is no longer available, but I assume there are equally good monitors available using the same tech).

My bathroom has a sliding glass door and I hate it even more now.

Larger than they would be for visible light, yes, but not necessarily larger than human eyes. Birds, for instance, can have amazing vision with much smaller eyes.

Elon Musk is Temu Lex Luthor.

They have the same vibe, but Lucille is kind of a buffoon, whereas Mallory gets shit done.

Conservatism

I saw it up close with my naked eyes. No goggles needed.

You’ve described the reasons why aliens that see in the radio spectrum would never evolve in the first place. Aliens from a particularly cool star might have their vision attuned to infrared, but no place that’s warm enough to have liquid water would be cold enough to make radio waves more useful than infrared.

You, who overlooked that fact that they specifically did not recommend it at that price.

Have you tried asking Google Translate?

Why does she have a tail?

I suspect most people think port and starboard are just synonyms for left and right. I did for a very long time. And you also have to consider non-native speakers who might not know the nautical terms at all.

The trains where I live say “on my right” and “on my left”. It sounds a little weird hearing an automated voice speaking in the first person, but it’s concise and gets the message across to people who won’t know nautical terms.

This post resonates with me. People dismissing it as “bait” are doing precisely the thing OP is complaining about.

I can have sympathy for people with more money than me, but not for their financial situation, because their finances are objectively better than mine will ever be, and I’m not feeling sorry for myself.

Won’t someone think of the poor multimillionaires?
