What are you talking about, the headphone jack is the superior connector. It works on all devices, it doesn't need power, you can use it on a walkman from the 80s if you want. It can also rotate and is a lot more durable than USBC.
It's interesting because this also happens in other languages. In Dutch we only use couple (koppel) for people in a relationship.
If you are talking about other things we use "pair" if you have two. But over time people also started using pair wrong, so someone saying "ik heb een paar knikkers" I have a pair of marbles, can still mean he has 5 marbles.
In practice people usually just say I have two marbles when they mean exactly 2.
That is true, but my smart TV and smart scale both got something like 5 years of updates. Who buys a new scale every 5 years? My parents still have a scale from the 90s that works fine.
I'm fairly sure Microsoft is actively trying to screw Firefox. Outlook has always sucked in Firefox, teams is a shit show. When you use a useragent switcher somehow a lot of features seem to work magically in Firefox (which tells me MS is doing this on purpose).
For Outlook (exchange) I use Thunderbird with a paid plug-in (to make the 2FA stuff work). It's pretty cheap and totally worth it for me at least.
A while ago I came to the conclusion that a Casio G-Shock is the best watch. They don't have to be expensive, a good one will sync the time multiple times a day, so it's always accurate. A good one also has small solar panels in the watch face, so the battery will never be empty, and all of them are really build to last.
From a pure functional perspective I think it's the best watch ever made. It basically tells you the correct time, always.
I work in software development, I understand websites, webservices and the backend it all runs on at a pretty deep level.
But I never owned an Apple device. So whenever my wife (iMac user) has a problem and I try to help, I struggle with all the basic shit. I don't know the interface, don't know the menu structure, don't have muscle memory for basic key bindings (like copy paste).
Same with my parents, a few years ago my dad gave my mom his old iphone, didn't do any factory reset etc. She used logged out his apple id and logged in hers. But the apps he installed refused to update, very little information from the device about the problem. They don't know you shouldn't do this and just give me the phone and say apps don't update. It took me a while to figure out what the hell was even going on.
Exactly, if you are as big a Microsoft, you can't tell 100% if one of your developer's is actually being paid by a foreign government. Even if you say completely check the commits other devs make, there will still be deadlines when a code review is just "looks fine, next".
Ugh this reminds me of a guy I worked with, he used to be a trucker but became a software tester (he was also very religious).
Anyway he used to hate on open source software and call it open sores. According to him it was all amateur crap. Ugh I still hate that guy and it has been 15 years....
If you ban tabacco all out its going to create a huge black market. Addicted smokers that don't want to stop aren't just going to stop.
But, raising the legal smoking age with one year every year might work. Tabacco use is already pretty low for GenZ as smoking isn't "cool" like it was in the 70s.
