Except they can, remember fidget spinners?

Apparently it is just the ones containing menthol, salicylic acid, alcohols, camphor, or some fragrances. Apparently some chap sticks have petroleum jelly as an ingredient too.

The longer time to pay makes sense but the cards I have dont charge me for having them, I know availability of cards may vary though, some people might not have decent card options, I guess it makes sense.

All of the “buy now pay later” or pay in installment schemes/apps popping up, supposedly they are popular but I don’t get it, it is just a worse credit card.

Fair, but alot of people are going to wind up on a corporate social media anyways, and if they aren’t willing to jump over to more private options this is a mitigation of the damage and simultaneously is an act of defiance, so while not the best choice, I still regard it as better than, say, anything Meta owns. So I feel this shouldnt be beaten down on so hard, but rather used as a chance to say “Yeah, that is a step, but here are some better options”. Talking down about their choice on a platform they already aren’t on as if it is somehow worse than what is being pushed on them is just screaming into the void.

I understand it perfectly, if american companies harvest their data, their govt is only a step from having it, and companies over here have immediate use of that data.

If the chinese companies have it, the chinese govt has it, and then what? Is china gonna prosecute us internationally with the info? At minimum they are making the US companies and govt crawl to china for the data they so desperately want.

Like, the US gets more use of data on US citizens than China would. Maybe if the concern was improving the security of american apps and data I would see the point, but seeing how many american companies continue to get away with it, it is blatant “America Good, others Bad”

It might be, where I live in the US all microwaves with a power setting ask you to set the power from 1-10 (implied to be percentages/10) with no hint as to the wattage except the label so you have to hunt for it.

Scruffing a cat poisons it into a coma?

But he only said he scruffed them (if I am reading it right), not that he grabbed them by the scruff, is this apparently something that is considered abusive or something? If a cat claws at my leg and I pinch there to make it stop that is absolutely not the same as grabbing them there. I would never actually try lifting them that way.

Same, looks like I’m not part of that 90% either, only 4 years account age here.

But when would you buy a computer monitor for netflix and NOT have something with access to netflix to plug into it? If they didnt have anything with netflix and wanted it built-in then why did they buy a monitor and not a TV?

Exactly, so why would a PC Monitor need to have it’s own Netflix? The PC already has it.

There are “two-way” remote start kits that have a display on the fob to report back AC state, engine remaining run time, and door lock state. It also helps for making sure the button you pressed actually reached the car.

For one thing they were so obsessed with security as a concept devleoping it that they completely ignored the use case of screen-readers for the visually impaired and prevent apps from accessing text from other apps and as far as I know it is still an issue.

To be fair powershell is more recent and windows has always used the control panel for most configuration, they are kind of rug pulling everyone who learned to use it and there arent clear terminal alternatives, for instance, how do I calibrate a game controller’s axis with the terminal?

This isnt even the only iron battery chemistry! The one in the article is Iron-air but you can also do Iron-Iron

I envision it like AT&T’s break-up, where the singular Google is broken up into regional companies that will (hopefully) have to compete with each other.

The US Army used to teach shooting similarly to that, minus the hand in the pocket of course.

Absolutely.

Buckwheat pillow, holds it’s shape well and you can flatten it out or bring it back together to adjust the thickness, big downside though you kind of have to mold your head into it when you go to bed, really just boils down to adjusting the thickness, laying on it, and rocking your head back and forth on it a couple times to shape it. They dont fold well but I feel they don’t need to.
