Windows is designed to work on a very wide range of specs, so older devices as well as low-end newer devices should be able to run it.

That’s even more true about Linux. Many popular distros can be run on a raspberry pi, a 20 year old MacBook, or a state-of-the-art gaming desktop.

It’s less true about macOS because Apple has more control over the hardware so they can be pickier. Mobile developers also have more control over the hardware and can be pickier, although that’s less true about Android than iPhone.

It’s still there, buried in the settings. TBF I wouldn’t expect them to remove it, because some people probably do use it.

Rumble has been basically a variant of a traditional speaker in many devices for a while now.

Also it can still heat up, although it might not be as prone to burnout as a motor.

HDDs consist of a metal disk spinning very fast with a magnetic needle held very close to it. Enough of a bump and the needle can run into the disk, potentially destroying both needle and disk in the process.

Honestly services like Blue Apron help with this. It’s more expensive than buying your own groceries, but still cheaper than eating out. It also helps you learn meal planning to eventually be able to buy the right amount of food on your own.

(It is easier to do if you have more people to feed though, like ideally at least one friend/partner/roommate to share the subscription with you. You can do a 2-3x a week meals for 2 subscription for one person, but it’s a bit much.)

Tell that to Mario lol

You can just download one from the App Store as of a year or so ago.

Spiral, no contest

I’m not sure how legal it is for CA to stop paying taxes. At the very least, it’s an attempt to attack where it hurts, which is in the money.

I have like a 70% success rate with this trick

In Python, self is not a keyword, it’s a conventional variable name. You can replace all instances of “self” with “this” and your code will work the same.

We did almost hunt whales to extinction, but it wasn’t meat we were hunting for, it was their oily fat.

No.

The “all browsers are iOS reskin” thing is browsers must use WebKit for JavaScript and rendering, which are the two biggest parts of a browser. WebKit is a library of code distributed as part of the iOS SDK. However, Safari adds more on top of WebKit, including its plugin API. Installing plugins into iOS Safari wont affect anything just using WebKit because they aren’t using the Safari plugins code.

In theory Firefox could implement its own plugins system for iOS, but it would more limited than the normal Firefox plugin system for other devices, and also they might run into policy issues with Apple (this policy about 3rd party browsers is part of a broader policy against side loading, which has in the past prevented things like emulators and programming apps into the App Store. They have recently started loosening up on their anti-side loading policies, however).

If you use reusable bags, bottles, and other containers, that’s way more sustainable than any single use product.

But using paper is still better than plastic, and yes, trees can be and are sustainably farmed in many parts of the world.

I have seen some shifts away from plastic. For example, Apple seems to have removed almost all if not all plastic from their packaging, replacing it with paper.

I’ve started seeing a lot of restaurants with blatant AI slop pictures of food on their menus or signs.

I wonder if the questions were phrased like “none/some/many/most/all” and not percentages?

I don’t know how else a significant sample size would end up with an average guess that 1/3 of the US population lives in NYC.

Weddell sea is good, mentioning Antarctica is good, the word “North” is meaningless in this context which is what the OP is laughing about.

The chlorine tablets taste like ass IMO getting a good filter is the way to go.

The most common cause of symptoms like in OP’s story are multicellular organisms. While still microscopic, they are plenty large enough to get caught in a filter. The filters are usually good enough to catch bacteria too.
