I see your point, but I also saw Juiced Bikes go out of business last month after 15 years in the industry.

I've been annoyed by a minor change in the stock Samsung clock app for some time now. I just installed the Fossify one you linked.

Minor nitpick: 24h time doesn't start with a leading zero.

Everything else seems exactly how it should be.

Thanks.

From what that article says, this fee is only charged to a PayPal balance. I have no clue who's keeping a balance in a PayPal account, but it's not like they're going to charge someone's payment methods.

Not defending them, I just find it surprising that they have any customers this could even apply to.

In theory, Sponsorblock could evolve to download a new video multiple times, check what frames match each copy, and use that data to skip to the next matching frame when users watch something.

This would overcome video stream ad injection even if every ad was a different length and in a different location each time someone watched the video.

You just reminded me I've got to mail my modem back. Thanks!

“Ireland does not give preferential tax treatment to any companies or taxpayers,” stated a spokesperson from the Irish Ministry of Finances.

I wish the media would eviscerate these people like they used to.

Oddly enough, last year I used dish soap in the laundry for a few months without noticing, and nothing like this happened. I was surprised when I looked it up and saw this kind of thing as a common occurrence. Couldn't believe I had picked up this container each weekend for months without noticing the picture of plates and glasses on the front.

I understand now these soaps are quite different from one another and the fact nothing happened to me is a fluke, so definitely don't do this on purpose.

These things happen to everyone from time to time.

I myself misworded some comments just the other day in frustration and inadvertently caused an upset. No worries at all. It's big of you to come in here and correct yourself. It speaks volumes to the type of person you are.

Cheers.

I've been using Organic Maps (from F-Droid) and it has a "Keep the screen on" option in the settings. That said, I've never had the screen dim while navigating to a destination. The setting I mentioned prevents timeout when you've got the map open but not on route somewhere.

The saxophone battle that unfurled on the New York City subway ten years ago comes to mind.

The burger turned ten years old back in 2019. Sadly, it looks like the live stream is no more, and perhaps neither is the hostel that was the burgers home.
