She should discuss that with a doctor instead of self-medicating with addictive substances.

Security-wise, yeah? IIRC Microsoft is very nonchalant with checking that there’s nothing malicious in the plugins on their marketplace.

It’s not red, so it’s not a dangerous button.

Aha, okay, much clearer what you meant now. Yeah, they surely get a kickback for each new subscription.

Why are you buying a phone plan if you’re not using the mobile network?

You understand that SIM cards aren’t actually active until they’re connected to the network for the first time, right?

Hmm, that’s maybe also why American toilets get clogged all the time if they release the water so slowly? Mine empties the entire tank and stops filling the bowl after like a second or two, regardless if it got blocked or not. I can’t even reach any kind of “stopper” in the tank without opening the entire thing

Isn’t that just the same pig, just wearing different makeup? I’m not a fan of msedgewebview2.exe allocating 500+ MB RAM just because Teams is open, but maybe that’s Teams fault…

What a horrible pipeline you have. There’s surely some way you could speed up that process?

an approximate location based on cell tower triangulation (which is kind of hit or miss, sometimes it’s really accurate, other times it’s basically useless)

I thought it was some kind of law that newer phones have to send accurate GPS coordinates?

Freely learn about many subjects, just as long as you aren’t wondering what happened on the 4th of June 1989.

Not so awful, but it’s disappointing when you open the drawer expecting a Bible, but there’s only OneNote there.
