This advice is exactly why the sunk cost fallacy exists, just try a different website.
It makes sense that it dropped a bit during COVID, hopefully, it will pick up in the future again.
This is definitely an example of that.
It makes no sense.
I truly can't imagine how this is true. It's such a simple thing to understand.
I use Bing more frequently than Google and at this point it is better. Google's baseline algorithm is better than Bing's but Google targets its search results as well as its ads, which fucks up the results. I know Bing has targeted ads but it either doesn't target its search results or does so more subtly, making more user-friendly at this point.
I've never heard it before, but it sounds about standard for a deez nuts joke so I wouldn't be surprised if it was popular in some subreddit Bard was trained on.
According to some articles I've seen (like this one) it's expected that Trump will be booked at the Fulton County Jail. I'm cautiously optimistic.
A few places have so many stray cats that if you want one you can go outside and grab one (after checking it for a collar or chip). That's what this comic is referencing.
You can avoid the risk of tax-funded journalism by making it so that even though they're government subsidized they're still independent. There are multiple potential ways to evaluate which journalistic entities qualify for government funding, all with pros and cons, but it could work.
This isn't an auto-grat. The receipt explicitly says "This is not a tip or gratuity" and has a recommended tip line. This restaurant is either double-dipping to pay their employees less or scamming their customers.
It's almost certainly a Mac & Cheese variant. Stuff like this is why I heavily research restaurant prices before going out.
The copy, pasting, cutting, and moving features have improved significantly but I will admit it's still not perfect.
I personally use Xournal++. It's a really nice app and is FOSS.
That generation of Floridians is going to be seriously messed up. This could be a real problem (or maybe Florida will be destroyed by the Climate Crisis before it manifests, who knows).
I fully agree, this is in large part what I meant by proportional representation. I don't mind the process of districting and making sure those districts are decently small, I just don't like that in large part that the democratic process in the United States is geared towards smaller states. I'm fully aware that the states at America's founding wouldn't go for abolishing the Senate or the electoral college, but things have changed and it's time for the government to change too.
I also don't mind having the choice of whether or not to use a case, but it might be nice if it were an included accessory.
To be fair, Virginia illegally seceded from the Union. Illegally seceding from an illegal secession makes you a patriot I think.
You know what, I'm down. I think life in Mega Virginia will probably be better than life in Indiana now. Can we also do Long Massachusetts?
How's progress on OAuth2? I know previously you (understandably) said it wasn't a priority this early, but is it on the greater roadmap?
