  • Phone speakers these days are fairly decent. Will good headphones/speakers with a good DAC and AMP and a lossless audio file sound better? Well, duh. Are phone speakers adequate for the vast majority of people who aren't audiosnobs, sorry, audiophiles? Also yes. Just don't be that asshole using speakers in public spaces.

  • Milchstraße in German, which translates to milk road.

  • Usually the henchmen are actively attacking the protagonists, while the villain is already (seemingly) defeated by the time this line is uttered.

  • That's a vast oversimplification of the thought process and emotions that's going on there and an extremely uncharitable one at that (most people have their own lives to worry about, it's usually less "I can't drive where I want to" and more "I have to get to work"), but essentially yes. That's the reality you have to work with.

  • Those do work better. Antagonising the people whose support you rely on to effect change is a horrible strategy, the more of a disturbance protests cause to the average person, the less likely said average person is to be supportive.

  • Let's not beat around the bush here, he wants it to sprout fascist propaganda.

  • It's really not much of a flex (all you need is a strong transmitter), and it's almost certainly not intended as one. They're doing it because the Israeli and American military use GPS for navigation and targeting.

  • At home that's the schedule because I have to get to work. It's not a choice. But on vacation I'm not going to force myself to get up at 6 or 7. Certainly not if I'm out till 4, which is something that happens on occasion (less nowadays, but still).

  • Congratulations, you made it worse.

  • That's how fast food works though. Using non-disposable plates, cups, etc. for takeout would be impractical unless it's strictly "bring your own". The industry requires waste.

  • It may not be direct assistance but helicopters doing direct, low overflights is still an intimidation tactic.

  • Monoculture farming in particular is absolutely horrific for biodiversity.

  • Just open a can of tuna and put it on the floor. 9 times out of 10 the "stuck" cat will happily come down.

  • It's pretty clear that OP's daughter does feel like she's missing out on things her friends are doing, that's why she is asking. Social isolation doesn't have to be total to be damaging to your mental health, especially if you're an extrovert.

    And bringing up "but in my time..." Yeah, no. Not a comparable situation. If everyone is on social media and you're not, you're going to be left out of at least some things, there's just no way around it.

  • You're not outrunning the cops (plural), at least not for long. Especially not once you've physically assaulted one, they're gonna be out for blood.

  • The settlers are enabled by the Israeli government's use military force against whoever already lives on the land they want to "settle." The money is the smallest of the issues at hand.

  • Literally not what's happening. Which, I guess, is reason you didn't link the actual announcement/clarification post while making your baseless claims. You are free to criticise Israel, support Palestine and Palestinians, and to call out the genocide.

  • You can still be happy in your 50s and beyond.
