Instead of having to click an extra button after clicking the send button, just put a space in the subject and the client won’t ask you if you’re sure you want to send without a subject. That’s my guess as to why it looks this way.

I worked in car sales in 2021, so many people didn’t want to consider a hybrid or all electric because it was “worse for the environment than gas”, or the “construction of the batteries was worse for the environment than an oil rig”, or the idea of having to replace two different batteries every “few years” was wasteful and more expensive then just buying a gas car you only had to replace one battery on. And that was just 5 years ago…

Like the people against EV were/are sucking the exhaust pipes these manufacturers were/are pumping propaganda out of completely dry, people are really ignorant and tend to not do any research on their own and depend on the news outlets and industry leaders to do all their research for them, especially when it comes to vehicle purchases.

Most of the people that were against EVs in my experience were people that purchased $70k-$90k trucks with all the bells and whistles… They had no reason to save money by switching off gas.

It’s not just this guy’s dad, there’s a lot of them out there, all across the world.

What I did was clone my windows drive as a virtual machine on an external drive, like a flash drive, then, I wiped the drive, installed kubuntu, moved the VM back to the drive, and when I run into something that I’m like “I can’t find an alternative to this app on Linux” or “I need a copy of that one thing from my old windows install” I just boot it up, use the app and do what I need, or transfer the file over, and I’m good.

In my case I will admit, I did not wipe the windows drive and ended up dual booting, but not very often, just because I haven’t been able to get a vm to run smooth using virtual manager since I switched, running windows or Linux, pretty sure it’s because of Nvidia and their proprietary driver. If I don’t need GPU, I can use the VM just fine. But for specific games or software, switching to Windows on bare metal is handy.

I’d say the VM thing isn’t the best solution to the problem you’re facing, but it is a solution that can make the transition a little easier, it helped for me anyways, so I figured I’d share.

You can sideload apps, whether they are on the blocklist or not. That’s what the sentence* you quoted says. Well, that’s what I interpret anyways. Maybe I’m wrong.

You misunderstand, the list of apps they block are “inside” the said list, while sideloading apps “outside” of the said list is possible. So you can only find and install whatever apps they’ve approved within whatever app store they use to serve apps to their customers, but you can install any apk on the phone by sideloading it, given the app supports the phones CPU architecture of course.

I was watching a show the other day where the wealthy protagonist got his phone thrown to the grown and smashed by someone and he freaked out because it was a $200 phone. I think the episode is like 10 years old or so. Phones used to be cheap to own as well as cool.

Letterkenny, I think it gets good around the end of season 1 or beginning of 2. You still have to watch the first episodes to get an idea of who everyone is and their relationships though. Might have to do with just how strange the characters are in this random small town in Canada. It’s pretty tough at first, but once you get to the end of the first season, something clicks and the show becomes pretty hilarious.

My ¢2, devil’s advocate, maybe they were trying to protect the women from emotional trauma, they’d still have some but, maybe an attempt to reduce it. Obviously they could have done different things to do that better, but, maybe it was what they thought was their only option. New Mom’s baby dies, instead of telling her that her child is dead, they hide it and tell her that it was adopted or transferred somewhere it would be taken care of or whatever.

It’s far fetched, probably unlikely, but hey, devil’s advocate, it’s a possibility.

Not sure why the down votes… You can be dishonest and truthful but you cannot be dishonest and honest. You can mix truths in with lies and that would still absolutely be considered dishonest, but you cannot mix lies into truths and still be honest.
