Because in America we believe strongly in our rights: specifically the right to tell people they don’t have the right to speak any language they want. It’s called freedom man!

Wouldn’t the phone have to have your fingerprint stored in order to compare it to the one scanned?

Don’t know anything about this from personal experience, but I thought I heard a report a while back about a fairly large number of hikers in the UK injured or killed by cows. So I’m guessing, not as dangerous as crocodiles but still best to be careful.

Sure is. Thanks.

Any opinions on Opera? I used it 1000 years ago. I liked it but then they started charging or something and switched to Firefox. Then Brave which was my favorite but is a problem I guess. I used Chrome for a short time until I learned it was Google crap. So now I’m back to Firefox. I see Opera is still around though.

I heard that a while ago many VPN services were bought by the very people you use a VPN to protect against. How do you know which ones are safe?

Both, depending on the task.

For instance, I have trouble taking notes while working on my car. Fingers dirty, device runs out of battery and needs power cord, no good program for combining pics and text and so on. It’s just easier to write on scratch paper.

But if I order something online, I just screen shot the receipt.

When I was a kid, an older kid peer-pressured me into smoking a cigarette. I smoked the whole thing and quickly noped out of that. Can’t believe I made the best decision of my life at the age of 6.

I have no idea. Like others I usually request the side closest to the bathroom since I go during the night more often than her. I could see it either way.

An e-bike. I used my regular bike for errands but the e-bike just made it so much easier to pedal in high winds or when I was hauling my trailer full of groceries. Plus it increased my range because I knew I could go farther in the same amount of time. I bought a class 1 e-bike so I always have to pedal, like a normal bike. Because I use it more, I think I actually get MORE exercise despite the assist. I really love it.

And moments after its efficacy was proven, Louisiana banned it.

Ok, thanks for that. Still it didn’t happen back when I was using Brave.

I use Firefox on Windows 10. I’m kind of a tab-o-holic and multiple times a day I have to shut down FF and restart it to keep YouTube from slowing down. Thought it was due to the number of tabs I have open, but I never had this problem when I was using Brave.

Gotcha.

How do you know it’s a first year-over-year sales drop without first having a second year of drops? Isn’t that what year-over-year means?

I’m more of a dog person.

But… But… Maverick?

I use Pandora a lot. Often I’ll go to YouTube to watch the video.

So I put in a station on Pandora and when I hear a song I really like (or several I like from one artist) I put that artist in as a station on Pandora. Lather, rinse, repeat. I’ll usually find a bunch of new stuff I haven’t heard before and I’m pretty sure many of them are from little known artists because when I put their songs into YouTube, I notice they frequently have few views. Ex. Jem. Hope this isn’t too obvious.

Yeah, I thought about that, but I once saw someone bring something too large on the plane and the flight attendant told the person it would have to be checked(at cost). Maybe the guy pissed her off, I don’t know.

Yup, exactly what I think. So I used to sit in the gate area until the last possible moment until I found out that if you wait too long, they’ll give away your seat. Plus since they are charging people for checking luggage through, you have to get that overhead bin before it’s gone, unless your carry-on fits in front of you, which it doesn’t if you’re on a bulkhead. So, now I stand in line, frustrated by that and all the other crap we have to go through when traveling by plane these days. Looking at you TSA.
