Why use a Google link shortener with tracking, instead of linking to the Hollywood reporters site directly.

Or, more to the point, why use a Google app that replaces links you want to share with redirects?

The last time I ate McDonald's, I arrived in Pasewalk, a tiny town in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, on a much delayed train at 2 in the morning. They where the only place that was open, and I hadn't eaten since noon.

That burger was kinda OK, but it might have been the circumstance. They stopped selling vegan burgers anyway, so whatever.

Any video surveillance not controlled by you and you only seems like a bad idea. iRobots products have had privacy problems for years, regardless of whether they're owned by Amazon or not (which they aren't, merger got cancelled). Alexa does cost them money, but I wouldn't use any non-FOSS non-self-hosted smart home system for privacy and security reasons.

Yeah, always preferred those to stadium shows. I live quite a distance away now, but still make a point of going to as many tiny shows as I can.

Also, after looking it up, they're from a neighbouring town and came over for the show.

They're originally from my home town. Saw them play free concerts for tens of people before they blew up. Good old days.

Always felt the corkscrew was one of the more useful ones. Did you never forget bringing a proper corkscrew to a picnic?

Someone who pretends to be cute and wants to talk about finance? Pretty sure they're gonna try to get you to 'invest' in their totally legit trading platform.

There's also qobuz. They have a streaming service, but you can also straight up buy a lot of albums and download them drm free.

I mean, there's a lot of very impressive manual labour in that watch. Not 900k of it, but still, if you wanna charge prices like that, you probably need some kinda storied history, or innovation, or whatever else you can gesture at justifying your outrageous pricing.

Also needs some stir, maybe find someone more or less famous willing to wear your product, would be best if they also made a scene while wearing it.

I've used parts from my old PC for my Homeserver. Among other things, it runs Jellyfin. Most of my library can be directly played by most clients, so I need almost no transcoding. Just serving the media uses tiny amounts of ram and compute, and the only bottleneck I could see is a residential Internet connection (I've got symmetrical gigabit, but there's lots of residential gigabit that limits uploads to like 50mpbs).

My last phone lasted 5 years till the display broke. Had to switch the battery once, but nothing else gave out. My current one gets 8 years of updates, and I plan on using it till then, as long as nothing unexpected happens.

Yeah, but that's why I don't think fertility is a good measure of age in any way.

I don't disagree with the numbers, I just don't think they're bound to any one aspect of the human body, nor do they need to be.
