How funny they are selling a $150,000 display and still feel the need to inflate its size from 109.2" to 110".

On what basis do you say easy to repair doesn't involve sacrificing other attributes? I've seen the Fairphone and it's a chunky one.

Start using worktrees, eg I have one for development, one for reviewing other people's code, and one for looking at another commit (usually main, using checkout --detach ). You could easily have more.

If it's accurate and has higher readership, what's the harm? I found it useful. Re topics, it is a shame for the regular readers if they have limited themselves to the short list of high SEO performing topics. But it would be hypo
