Diet in this sense might be different. If you want to gain weight, you'd have to change your diet to eating more for a specific period. Vice versa for losing it. If you want to change the way you eat, that's not to diet - that req

I think my comment was around the wrong way, I meant that evernote was horrible on windows - so much so that I just switched back to onenote out of frustration. I do miss the desktop version of onenote as that had a lot more features that I

I've used onenote for a while and tried to move over to evernote - it's horrible on windows. Simple things just as being able to highlight multiple words to change fonts or even have auto capitalization not have a toggle. The only

I listen to podcasts while I walk my dog even though it does require almost constant attention on my dogs actions. I find myself constantly trying to focus on what's being said and missing it often enough to have to rewind 15 seconds.

Yep, I know someone that ran a company stocking vegetables/fruits for one of the top supermarket chains here - they were the middlepeople who packed the pallets. It's a very hard working/high demand place, it wouldn't be

Evernote on windows is horrible. My two biggest annoyances were: - No auto capitalization, - no highlighting multiple words (wanting to change the font of specific words in different lines) I moved over from onenote and decided to move bac

As someone from Australia who doesn't understand the prison thing in the US. Is it essentially modern slavery? They choose non-white demographics, send them to prison for minor offences, and use the for cheap/free labour. Is this

This is interesting.. I've only ever heard bad (well odd) things about them mainly on reddit but I admit I'm quite ignorant on literally everything to do with that culture. Could you please shed some more light on this community?

If they want to charge for it they better make it easier than it is currently to migrate over chats from iOS to Android and vice versa. iOS to Android was okay, still had to pay ~$10 for it. Going from Android to iOS was very difficult so I

No one's tiptoeing around it - it just looks like people are more open to generalizing a whole ethnicity around anecdotes. Sounds like you're calling people politically incorrect just because they don't generalize. (Another a

Yes, I do agree righting wrongs due to system racism with: (a): why do this at the expense of other minorities? It looks like on paper, the majority want to uplift (certain) minorities while keeping themselves safe which seems to be going t

Actually, I forgot to add that it can be bad as a whole for Chinese people too if they're stereotyped as rich. There are plenty going overseas to study who are pretty much in poverty too or even those born here with a Chinese backgroun

I reckon it's to purposely give them a "reason" not to accept Asian Americans. People like to believe we live in a meritocracy and Asian Americans as a group did better than other races - so they put in "well-roundedness
