i generally type in all lower case anyways because it appears more casual, at least to me. it's not exactly a rule i follow, so it's never consistent, and i don't mind capitalizing abbreviations and names and such anyways.
the "best" format for everyday use is each individual person's personal preference.
you may be more used to DDMMYYYY due to culture, language, upbringing, and usage. in the same vein, i am more used to YYYYMMDD because in chinese we go εΉ΄ζζ₯ (year-month-day), and it makes organizing files and spreadsheet entries much more intuitive anyways.
1-26 or 01/26 is a way of writing the month and day. in this particular example, it is describing the 26th day of January, or January 26. the year is omitted in this instance because, in this context, it is a way of demonstrating how a month and day can still be conveyed in order of significance without fully adhering to ISO 8601 guidelines.
well, we chinese undergo intense shaolin finger strength training at a young age, and so we all can pick up heavy objects up to 1kg with our chopsticks.
Try on-ear headphones, like the Koss KPH40s and Koss Porta Pros. A pair of Koss KSC75s on a cheapo lightweight headband has been my professional and home setup for years now and I can wear them for hours and hours on end without fatigue.
You can also go with in-ear monitors. I personally get a mild headache from the audio seal, so I tend not to wear them for too long. Check out Crinacle and Hangout Audio for IEM recommendations.
at some point, you gotta throw in the towel and let her use one password for everything. not ideal at all, sure, but it's not the end of the world as long as it's complex enough.
or get her a notebook, or a note-taking app, and jot down all the passwords for every account (not the generated ones from the password manager; too complex).
if your issues are more of the "help me, now!!" variety and you want to keep her off your back, tell her that you're busy and can help in ten minutes or an hour or at some scheduled time. if her stuff is urgent, too bad, your work is too. show her that you're not at her beck and call, and then help her at that scheduled time; you'd be surprised at how fast the problems reside.
If you don't have a flatbed scanner, and the item is flat on the side you want to photograph, you can do a pencil rubbing of it onto a sheet of paper (that you do know the dimensions of), and photograph that instead.
More mass transit = fewer people in cars = better driving experience for people in cars (you).
I won't blame you for preferring to drive a car; the US is practically built for cars, and even what little public transit you have access to is of poor quality compared to what you can find in the likes of Germany and Hong Kong. And people love to complain about Germany's Deutsche Bahn.
NYC is trying to solve the issue of traffic congestion. You're stuck in that rush hour traffic? Sorry, but you are the traffic. Deterring drivers from driving into the city is the whole point. It is supposed to suck for you, but it will make the locals happier since they'd have less noise pollution, air pollution, more walkable areas, and faster emergency response times.
i've disabled auto caps on my phone :o
