Hmmm, aren't we actually helping the deadly strains by putting a lot of effort in keeping those people alive? Those who usually would be dead, can actually survive nowadays, and that virus could somehow spread further?

I've come to the conclusion weird downvotes are just a short, mostly emotion driven decisions. Sort of a "Too complicated, did not understand, seems bad - downvotes". Every social website suffers from it. TBH, I would like to

That's not really true. Every SIM I ever got, no one ever asked me for actual ID. Yeah, some required me to fill in a page with my info, I could've written anything there. Doesn't that cause the opposite problem - for example

Oh yeah, they won't even let you access Recovery if you haven't logged in for a long time and all of your devices are new to Google. Pretty funny.

Their account recovery (which only needs answers to one or two of their questions, not all) seems to be used for account highjacking. I lost one that way, and searching around I found many people with a similar story. If they just stuck to

Would it be so hard to use less packaging on foods, especially snacks? It's ridiculous, why does a brownie need 3 layers of packaging? I only drink carbonated water, so I use one plastic bottle that's always with me lol (I do thro

Yeah, it's an acquired taste. Some of the earlier successful YouTubers popularized the style, it's funny if you're used to it and iirc allows for an easier time filming/editing (if you make lots of mistakes I guess). Man

Do they allow it? I was surprised the Huawei Mate 20 Pro, at the time a flagship phone on par with the Note 9 and others, actually had a locked bootloader. It would've been a good opportunity to allow people to install whatever they wa

My best home ISP that I had just gave you one static IP per contract and I could use any hardware I wanted. I still have the 100Mbps fiber-ethernet switch + router combo which worked flawlessly. I wish every ISP was like that :/

I've seen these dual AP setups, sounds like a great idea, but in practice the signal is weak and I pretty much would have to stay in one spot (potentially creeping out someone in the house lol) to use it properly. Mobile data is just m

Right... Look, Facebook's interface looks 10x more confusing than WordPress to me. If I could manage to learn it, someone using Facebook can manage to follow a few step by step guides on WordPress.
