I don't see an "AdBlockerPlus" in the Chrome Web Store, and a google search tells me that "Max AdBlocker Plus" is malware. Can you link to the extension you're talking about?

I wish they could at least store it in terms of the timezone name, like "Central Time". "America/Chicago" bothers me because I don't know what cities are and aren't in your timezone database. The ones that

Oh, uh, I thought you were talking about your name. Microsoft collects your friends' names so it can spell their names correctly when you use speech-to-text or related features. I thought that's what you were objecting to. What ki

Oh, I forgot about that - that feature wasn't available when Chrome was launched. To be fair, that feature also isn't very hidden; the sync settings let you turn off history sync or use a sync passphrase which prevents Google from

The $9.5/hour or $10.9/hour figure mentioned in the OP compensates for the time/distance traveled to pickup point, including your drive to pick up your first passenger. That was the figure I was referring to. You get misleadi

On the other hand, most minimum wage jobs don't reimburse you for the costs or time spent commuting to and from work. I wonder if that significantly impacts the comparison. In the other direction, I think the US also has higher self-em
