I started using Curve since I swapped to Graphene. Upsides: it’s not google and it works fine. Downsides: it’s a free as in beer app that (I assume) is selling my data.

I’ve read that Monzo used to have their own NFC payment app, but it looks like that isn’t around anymore and they just integrate with Google Pay now. If anyone knows more about it I would love to hear it.

Squad works fine for me on Linux. Performance is no worse than it is on windows. I need to add a caveat that I haven’t tried the new UE 5 builđs of the game yet, so I can’t comment in that.

Cool. What’s the destination of my phone on the desk?

Unfortunately this is the better of the two main parties. This isn’t republicans winning because dems didn’t vote. Labour won, and this still went through. The UK government as a whole has been on an anti porn brigade for decades. I can’t wait for the day labour and the Tories just die off.

The Nazi gold is still very much a thing. And the descendants of Jewish people who died in concentration camps are often unsuccessful in reclaiming any wealth that was stored in Swiss banks, because they don’t have death certificates and what not. Switzerland is incredibly stubborn and selfish when it comes to anything that would tarnish their neutral stance in banking and politics.

If I understand it right, the nerves and parts of the brain that deal with arousal and feet are right next to each other. So activation of one of them tickles the other in theory, though I don’t think it’s a confirmed thing.

Thanks for pointing it out. I forgot if they were actually compressed or not.

Gifs have a compressed look to them because it’s quite limited in number of colours it can have. But gifs are ~acrually uncompressed~ barely compressed lossless images, similar to .bmp (bitmaps).

Edit: Clarified GIFs are actually compressed, just lossless.

I believe if the UK finds a site that doesn’t comply with the law, they will block it from their side of things. I haven’t read anything about websites needing to be proactive to block the UK if they don’t plan to comply.

To be clear, this is a UK law now applied to any website that serves UK citizens. Anything that hosts adult content requires UK citizens to provide some form of age verification. Like a photo (for AI age estimation), credit card, utility bills, and so on. The government is dumb, and I guess it’s time to just sit on VPNs 24/7 now.

People are afraid of maturity levels, but if they are old enough to join the work force and pay tax, they should also be represented in government.

To be fair, I struggled with the UK signs when I moved here from Sweden. Big yellow quite distinct, to smaller ones that pop less from the surroundings. Not an excuse as such, but I find it understandable.

I know it’s not a rule, hence why I put it in quotation marks. I noted in another comment that, yes, the proper way is to group it as 1+(-2)+3 and you can do it in any order. What I meant with ““rule”” is the meme questions pray on people not understanding/remembering what the actual rules are or why “left to right” conventions exist.

I was gonna tell you it was a meme and they don’t actually work. This being in science meme I thought they might actually be stereographic images, but it’s from so far away you wouldn’t be able to discern any 3D-ness. But I was wrong the height is exaggerated. For me the walleyed version worked for me, I just had to zoom in on one image and hold my phone quite far away.

Yeah I’m incredibly curious, but looks like you need an account to view them.

If you think social bullying like this is some kind of rare thing I got some terrible news for you.

It goes far beyond just having pricey clothing, kids these days are bullied for not spending money in Fortnite. https://partner.sciencenorway.no/bullying-children-and-adolescents-computer-games/fear-being-bullied-children-pay-to-become-popular-in-video-games/2307469

It’s bad, even in countries like the UK where they have dress codes to try and address it, you’ll still he picked in for not having the right accessories.

I read it the same way you did. If you want to terminate the EULA, then they request you remove your copies of the game. In that snippet it says nothing about them arbitrary demand you delete all your copies.

I hadn’t thought about it on their server side tbf. But the more i think about it maybe there are other compounding reasons to keep group sizes small, such as the exponential number of links in a growing network and such. But, that is all beyond my knowledge area.

If you ever create a system where the number of users is “group.members - 1” everywhere in the code, I’d be very disappointed in you and deny that PR.

On another note; I doubt WhatsApp are so concerned with performance they are actually limiting the number of group members by the data type.

If you love the Chinese low quality drop shipped items on Amazon, and wish that was the only thing they stocked, then Temu is great!
