Yes of course you need one, the detection is what I can call flaky at best (talking about the websites I visit, not that the tech doesn't exist) and also I know many people who only run a good chunk of websites on their actual preferen

If I read it, then I usually read all 12 of them and try to decide how many of them fit better than my own one. Not sure that counts as believing, more being easily amused.

I'm confused, if we take out the paycheck how many people have lost or broken off contact with parts or all of their family? The people are still your family but you might have not talked to them for decades, so you're maybe only

Can't tell you the exact reasons but it happens to me once in a while, usually something in the network stack hanging. Laptops usually, so I just long-press the power button to "fix" it.

See my other comment, would be fascinating to know if the general perception has changed in countries where the Bachelor's + Master's system has not be the norm forever, i.e. 10-15y ago I knew no one who only did a Bachelor's

Sounds pretty weird to me. I'm just too old to have gotten the BSc+MSc combo here in Germany (some unis had it, mine didn't) but from my experience most people here would just stay at the same university and tack on the MSc just a

As someone who's not really into any ecosystem I'm currently thinking about switching from 14 years of Android to an iPhone and I'm absolutely not worried for all the important things, my only concern is basically losing acce

Maybe not the best example and maybe I was misinterpreting it, but Doctor Strange In the Multiverse of Madness was VFX-heavy and it was the funniest movie I'd seen in a while when it came out. Not strictly a comedy and maybe I am too e

As someone who usually plays only a very small amount of games for a very long time (MMOs and some others), what I noticed and also heard from others it's not even that other games are not interesting or good, it's more like &quot

I'm wondering how "writing unit files" even registers as a meaningful percentage of work (time) versus the parts where I (and others) see the problems. Looking at logs, having problems with journald, not being able to shutdow

What if the only time I've ridden an Uber was in 2014? That's an actual example but even with 3 taxi/uber rides per year I probably would not remember.

If by "gaming" you mean "be able to play a selection of games you might or might not be interested in, in varying states of support and performance", then yes - absolutely true. None of the games I've played recentl

I'm not even sure if I've ever went to a bar alone in my whole life, but from my observations it's not very common to talk to strangers at all here in Germany, I guess the best chances are outside in a beer garden and not in

Not a good argument, all around the world people are allowed to cross a road and don't usually stay standing there.

I'm not saying you're wrong, but that paints an overly simplified picture that ignores history. AFAIK RHEL came out of Red Hat Linux and Fedora came later, then at some point they made Fedora the upstream. But it has never been a

It's kinda down on the list of prios but "I can not in good conscience have children grow up in this world where I see only problems and no solutions." is definitely on it, and you can call me overly pessimistic, but not sure

I think the thing that most of us can't wrap their head around is the "building a credit score" part, not the credit score itself. As in, if I never take a credit and save all my money, I don't have a good credit score,

Wonder if it's "perfect" enough for that or if they'll add some sort of audio fingerprint (like the invisible dots on the printers).

The problem with HTC is the multitude of models (or maybe it's a more recent thing). I've not had one for a while, but the Tattoo (in 2009, very early) was really good for the price and the Desire Z was downright fantastic. I have
