This is probably unhealthy to mix and not have a degree of separation (I'm a kid still and don't have many responsibilities), but personally I've been getting a lot more out of my work day by being free to do things, run erra

Do you code 8 hours a day, every day? I pretty much zone out for more than half the day multitask thinking how I'd architect something, but also not really "working"...

You don't even need iPhones - most of the cheap prepaid brands that you'd see next to a payday loan shop are offering Samsung's lower grade phones or OnePlus 5G phones for free if you set up autopay (it's locked to that

Probably anyone that has signed a contract that came with a free phone in the last year and a half, anyone upgrading iPhones. Lower cost prepaid carriers are also pushing 5G phones heavily (albeit somewhat crappy ones), and offering them fo

I made the mistake of ordering both crisps and bottled juice in one Pantry order. I have no idea why they don't algorithmically structure what to pack together, but I don't think I've ever had a full order arrive in non-broke

Wait, is this a joke? This sounds like the worst built infrastructure I've ever heard of where they had more money than engineering sense. Also, Gbpm.

Unsure, but multiple Tencent products ship with various "protects" (like TenProtect) that are kernel level rootkits that start at boot.

Another thing: (that also pisses me off when I see it) is watching people constantly touch their masks (unsafe), taking them on and off every few minutes when they're about to pass someone, occasionally putting them on quickly by _hold

With the use of abusive privacy-violating fingerprinting data collectors (that all share user data across their customers), correctly using your right to chargeback a bad merchant can result in being banned from thousands of businesses. Usi

They really don't deliver a huge amount of it; quite a bit (significant amount) is straight up rejected. What you get is the trickle that vaguely passed at least a few tests in the spam box.

Unfortunately, you have to give Gilead massive amounts of PII and paystubs/etc for the uninsured free programme, which is utterly insane to an outsider to think about.

They don't typically care about client mods as far as I can tell, the use case they ban accounts for is using a third party client entirely. That being said I don't think slack/discord should be a thing for open source commun
