On Android you do have that toggle

I think this must be what's happening. 5G cell is equal or better than 4G cell in almost all ways. And if your phone is set to dynamically switch between 4g and 5g depending on what's best at any given moment then there's literally no downside, only upsides

Unless you're talking about something like a guy fanning you with a big frond, then i don't think that's true. If you have a specific example please cite it.

Tablet with tons of downloaded info + solar panels is my answer too. If you were wise about how you used the info you could be a demigod. Just knowing the process of how to refine aluminum could make you the wealthiest person on the planet.

For rich people there were passive air cooling systems available. And if you were truly wealthy you could have blocks of ice shipped to you

But, dry from what? How often are your electronics encountering a meaningful amount of moisture?

Yup, in the US you shouldn't tip on takeout orders

You're dreaming too small. You're almost definitely gonna live to see humans walk on the moon. And since you couldn't have been born before the early 70s, then it's reasonable that you might live to see civilians on the moon! And you yourself might even wind up in space!

What do you use them for?

But silica packets stop doing anything once they've absorbed moisture, and so aren't reusable once they've been exposed to normal air moisture. (Unless you've baked them to reactivate them). Is that not right? Because basically no one has a box full of re-baked silica packets hanging around ready for emergency usage.

Exactly. If there was a Spotify-like service for video where i could get 99.9% of all tv and movies of all time in one place without ads, then I'd be willing to pay like 40 bucks a month, maybe even 50. But since no video service is even remotely close to that, then i just pirate instead, which provides exactly that type of service, and costs zero dollars a month.

A nomination is meaningless, it's not at all the same thing as receiving the award. There are 351 nominees this year, and the requirements for being nominated are almost non-existent. Even an associate professor at any college can nominate whoever they want. The one and only criteria for nomination is that a person with recognized credentials submitted the nomination. That's literally it.

I assume you have legal experience based on your posts, but I'm not sure if what your saying is exactly right for all jurisdictions. A quick googling shows that it varies from state to state, and that the physical harm can be things like lost sleep and decreased appetite.

No, opposite on the hardware front. The cheap phones tend to be much more physically repairable, and 3rd parties make parts essentially forever.

What are you talking about? I've eaten at restaurants in other countries and the service has always been great.

I highly doubt that white is the most visible color in term of human noticeability

I'm not sure who gave you the impression that that's the definition, but it's not correct. It includes that, but isn't limited to that.

How about you don't editorialize a news post with your opinion? It makes it so i can't upvote the news story. Put your opinion into a comment if you want to.

This is called civil disobedience, it's a well established method of protest. When law-abiding protests fail to stop people from being murdered, then the next natural step is civil disobedience. Unfortunately the powers-that-be have learned that the most effective status-quo response to any protest is for them to do nothing, neither interfering with the protest itself nor actually responding to the protesters' points.

Love it!
