  • I've heard "86" as slang for eliminate/remove but I don't know where it comes from, and I would never use it if I thought it could be confused with a quantity.

    It sounds like something a stereotypical Chicago mobster might say, so I'd probably not use that slang anyway.

  • They are still U S. citizens, just not citizens of any state. Same thing can happen if you are born in DC or a military base not in a state.

    American Samoans are the ones that really get screwed. They are just U S. nationals. All the responsibilities of citizens (including the draft when it exists) but not all of the benefits.

  • At very least there's an OCX for InteractiveHtmlView or some stuff. It's how South Korean banks apps run. I think even the EU-specific "unbundled IE" versions still have that ActiveX / OLE control registered, though it might be crippled.

  • On my phone? All the damn time, since I use a lot of jargon and shorthand that it doesn't understand, as well as a few neologisms. But, I'm a much worse typist on my phone.

    On my Linux desktop or $dayjob's Windows laptop? Almost never, as it is much less aggressive about replacing what I typed.

  • Although, he admits in the video to "faking" his footage of it working, by using a off-camera heat source. (His batteries were quite dead.)

    But, as someone that lived through this time, they did work, as long as you pressed hard enough in the right places. It was hard to tell if the battery was dead or if you weren't pressing hard enough

  • Bones evolved for the first time: "485 Ma First vertebrates with true bones (jawless fishes)" -- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timeline_of_the_evolutionary_history_of_life (Vertebrates existed without a bony notochord before then.)

    But the Appalachians were started much earlier: "The geologic processes that led to the formation of the Appalachian Mountains started 1.1 billion years ago." They were basically finished growing by the time bones existed: "Around 480 million years ago, geologic processes began that led to three distinct orogenic eras that created much of the surface structure seen in today's Appalachians. [d] During this period, mountains once reached elevations similar to those of the Alps and the Rockies" Since then, it's just been wearing down. -- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Appalachian_Mountains

  • The whole reason I got on YT Premium was because it was free with Google Play Music. I have real issues watch non-Premiun now, because I've always disliked advertising methods. (Not so much th ads, which can be entertaining, but just being shown content I didn't request instead of the content I did request.)

  • Plaid effectively admitted to stealing your transaction history and selling it to the highest bidder in the past. There was a settlement and they agreed to not to that in the future

    Just don't ever share your password, and certainly not your banking password, and definitely not with Plaid.
