I've done that multiple times and yet......

A coworker asked if I could help her cousin and their partner with something as they were moving in just a few blocks from my house. Afterwards we went out for dinner. I was showing them my new fancy foldy phone and the cousin was like "yeah, I really like Android phones over iPhones, I've always had iPhones because that's what my dad always had " and then I realised the three of them had all grown up in the age of smartphones. I had to break it to them that I was fully an adult when the first iPhone came out, and that while it was cool I never saw the need to have a phone that was also an MP3/video player. I had a minidisc player and books.
Exactly. While I was looking around at their support forums I saw mentioned by several users, but without any substantiation, that the dev doesn't even daily drive it...which is pretty telling if true.
Also really bothers me that there's a paid version. Seems predatory to present a paid version on the main page when the unpaid is a broken mess.
CNN anchor John Berman said Tuesday as the news broke. “We think that’s what the administration announced just moments ago.”
No one is entirely sure exactly what the Dementia in Chief is ever saying.
Macron added, “We are not going to take part in any forceful operation within a framework that does not seem clear to me.”
Others have said Trump risks “humiliation in full view of the world.”
That implies that he hasn't already been an embarrassment multiple times prior to this.
Why would I pay £80-£100 for a broken-ass bag of hickory smoked goat anus, when I could pay £15-£45 for a really decent indie offering with a tight, properly thought out game loop, and free content in future updates?
What the 99.9% Figure Actually Measures
The conviction rate tracks only cases where a prosecutor has formally indicted a defendant and brought the case to trial. It does not reflect the outcome of all police investigations, all arrests, or all cases referred to prosecutors. This distinction matters enormously. Japanese prosecutors decline to indict in roughly 60% of cases referred to them by police, meaning fewer than one in three cases that police hand off ever reaches a courtroom.1 The 99.9% applies only to that narrow slice of cases that survived the screening process.
This makes direct comparisons with other countries misleading. In the U.S. federal system, prosecutors indict more than 80% of referred cases, but over 97% of those are resolved through plea bargains where the defendant agrees to plead guilty in exchange for reduced charges or a lighter sentence. If you counted those guilty pleas as convictions the same way Japan counts trial outcomes, the U.S. federal conviction rate would also exceed 99%. The roughly 83% conviction rate Americans typically hear about applies only to contested trials. Japan has no comparable plea bargaining system for most crimes, so nearly all its cases go to a full trial, and the 99.9% figure reflects verdicts after that process.
I'm personally convinced that every Google project team has at minimum 3 people whose only job is to optimise that projects incompatibility with other Google products....
I met Brian Jacques when I was a kid. Was absolutely obsessed with the Redwall series, I've still got a signed map of the Redwall surrounds somewhere. I'd dig it up and post it but it's got my full name on it....
6yr old me was uncontrollably stoked. He was a sweet old man. Dearly missed.
