akshuallllyyyyyyyy, monetary value of anything is derivative to someone else's willingness to purchase the item

weirder than "shot dead unarmed man"?

"shot dead" is a phrasel verb, therefore it can (I would argue in this particular context it should) be split:

shot (whom?) dead.

I shot him dead

He shot his wife dead

Cop shot unarmed black man dead (including press-specific omitting of articles because English is stupid)

yap, I like the analogy

you could, but that would just make it sound like the cop shot a man who has already been dead even more

cute of you to think students do that and not just mindlessly copy--paste what chatgpt spits out

"who shot an unarmed black man dead"

I mostly use Sync but keep Jerboa installed and every so often play with it as well. They are very similar, but Sync feels more fluent and polished, Jerboa has this "Android 2.1" feel to it

not my say to decide what should or should not be enjoyed, but IPA are the worst of beers and that is a fact

I need tabs and favourites sync :/

aren't most Kickstarter projects rebranded Aliexpress OEM products anyway?

I use it to protest Google's bullshit, but I still acknowledge all problems Firefox has and that all in all, Chromium is superior in many ways

interesting, but it seems the EU addressed the issue a couple of years ago

flushable wet wipes is a new, life-changing discovery to me

Yep, that's precisly my experience from uni as well. And it wouldn't be a problem if this "alternative mental model" worked for the people applying it. But it doesn't. They keep losing stuff, working on 5 different copies of an essay, not keeping track which one is current; they just add workload to everyone collaborating and then someone has to handle this shit. And who does it? The techy "nerds", such as you or me. The iPhone, iCloud and Google Drive really fucked the people who will have to at some point work professionally with GenZs (speaking this as Gen Z myself)

according to QI it was so delicious it never made it to Europe

uhm, yeah. very much doable. I successfully negotiated 5% off a laptop and extended warranty in a Mediamarkt, which is pretty much like Walmart but solely for consumer electronics.

All salespeople in every shop have negotiation brackets (well perhaps except grocery supermarkets) for most products and are willing to go down on the price if that may encourage you to buy. The negotiation wiggle space is normally included in the price and yeah, they do know you're uncomfortable haggling and will go out of their way to not discourage you from purchase.

Also, but this is something I only heard from a colleague, you can negotiate up to 40% off if you convince them to purchase the product using their employee discount (so bulk price) and split the difference off the record.

Gen Z doesn't understand file directories
