EE?

would also probably mean more contributions to wine to support legacy software

Usted is still used in Spain, it’s just much rarer. You might see “usted está aquí” on a sign, for example, but I’ve never personally heard it used in speech.

I learned it would only be for talking to someone of a higher class, like a butler might refer to their employer that way or a similar scenario where you would be explicitly formal.

you can use contactless payment with Curve Pay

Banking app probably depends on the app

Android 16 brings that desktop functionality

they’re referring to the linked article in the post. Ironic that your comment is calling someone out for not reading it.

Is Jolla any good now? I was using the Jolla C about ten years ago and it showed some promise but it was very clunky to use.

Also the Android runtime was based on 4.4 which was very outdated even at the time so loads of apps didn’t work even with the Android support layer due to outdated SDK.

I really want Linux phones to do well but that’s been my only experience so far

I got Norovirus in 2021 with the worst timing, I was in the process of moving home. Basically couldn’t get help from friends because of covid restrictions and my partner at the time didn’t drive but the rental contract was up and couldn’t be changed.

She helped a lot with the actual packing but we still had to load up and clean up the place, then drive multiple trips to/from the new place while I felt about as ill as I ever have. It was honestly one of the worst things I’ve ever had to do.

Disappointingly there are still right wing pundits who are pro fossil fuels.

I’ve noticed Mullvad advertising a lot in London on billboards, tube station platforms and sides of buses. Not saying it’s a bad thing just that I noticed it, they must have really ramped up spending on marketing.

I don’t want to play the game of finding out

Chrome and Safari are built from forks of KHTML, WebKit, not Gecko

Firefox was born out of the Mozilla project.

Name a better open source browser built from the ground up that isn’t backed by big tech, I’ll wait.

Recently booted Windows to install a BIOS update with a Windows only installer and realised it had been about a year since last boot. Think it may be time to reclaim that space.

The audacity and hypocrisy required to accuse others of intolerance after writing such misogynistic claptrap is staggering

Your comment actually made me feel sick. Please go re-evaluate where this toxicity in your life has come from.

Hint: it’s not women

They can! In fact, in the UK some government services do this already however there’s a couple of drawbacks:

1. They’d need to use some kind of companion app for each device since the web APIs won’t give them access to this.

2. For us at least the NFC chip still contains a digital copy of the photo so it’s not really any better since I don’t know what data is going to be sent by the app.

Can you elaborate for the curious? I tried searching but couldn’t find anything. What’s the login to exposé thing?
