You're walking home late at night from the bar because you've had 11 shots of tequila but you still made the conscious decision not to drive for the safety of others.
You're crossing a stroad.
Someone "in a hurry" decide to run the red light and hits you at 70 km/h (because of course they were speeding, why wouldn't they?), doesn't see you because you're hunched over while you're walking and it's really dark and the person is driving a giant SUV with shit visibility.
Cars are one of the largest source of fatal pedestrian accidents in a major city. How much more likely are you to get into an accident if you're drunk and is less able to pay attention to cars breaking the rules and putting you in danger? Walking safely in most cities is a task you need to be sober for because you have to walk super defensively.

They definitely have a boomer for a social media manager
The kid who jury rigged their gameboy to a power adapter is probably an electrical engineer by now.
NiMH is perfect for an application like this, where the power draw is high but you don't need the batteries to retain charge while in standby for that long, so the high self-discharge rate is irrelevant.
If you're not allowed to modify it, it's not open source.
Then you've developed a caffeine tolerance. I find that abstaining from caffeine for a week or two goes a long way to making it effective again.
I'm sorry, is this a bourgeoisie joke that I'm too proletariat to understand?
Black coffee. Works just as well for a quarter of the price without fucking your kidneys up or giving you diabetes.
I genuinely believe that the Mozilla board is secretly working for Google. They already get most of their funding from that search engine deal, is a backroom agreement to slowly run the organization into the ground in order to force the last holdouts over to Chrome that hard to believe?
I know this is sarcasm, but I still have to also point out that companies literally conspire with each other to undermine the consumer's ability to choose. Remember when Apple removed the headphone jack and Android vendors mocked their decision for all of one year before immediately following suit? That's 100% intentional and planned from the start. They know we want to vote with our money, which is why they do everything they can to make sure we don't have that choice.
No, because humans are hardwired to be diurnal and there is very little we can do to change that. We have a prominant window of circadian low, and it's one of the biggest threats to pilots that fly at night (among other safety critical jobs) even if they have slept for 8+ hours right before their shift.
You might think you can function just fine at night, you might even think you function better at night, but science says otherwise.
Additional reminder that Google not only records your location minute by minute, they also record your motion activity through your phone's gyroscope and know exactly what you're doing (walking, running, biking, driving, playing sports, etc). You can view all of this in your history. It's genuinely infuriating that they can get away with this.
You can turn it off in your settings, but as with any proprietary software you can never be sure that they're not still doing it (why wouldn't they? that's just leaving profit on the table)
I swear they intentionally make their app buggy as shit on Linux to punish us for not using Windows.
