Sure, their physical office is closed outside of business hours, but they have a 24/7 website and a call centre that runs late into the night. The last time I physically visited a bank was years ago and they actually couldn't answer my question and referred me to their call centre instead.

Maybe they're using the phone line for their Internet ? Vsdl etc...

I had the same experience with shitty playback buffering every few seconds on popular videos that should be cached on a nearby cdn, and then saw lots of articles about it and then boom a week later everything was back to normal

Not to mention 50 different variants of the same annoying loud video ad, so that even when you block it, you have to do it 49 more times to actually stop seeing it.

And the problem with the same irrelevant and animated ad repeated 5 times on the same webpage

Wouldn't that just make the poorest people vote for those donating the most money ?

They're also quite a bit larger on the inside than they are on the outside. Some tardis technology there no doubt.

It's not just that. It's also the "I don't want my tax dollars paying for some other person's health care" crowd.

Clear, as in all the garbage has been cleared up, leaving the good stuff behind

Perhaps you could say how American toilets flush.. presumably they're sufficiently different that they don't work like what you posted ?

I think your button had been rotated

In NZ, they ask what number, and it's a single digit, like number 3 or number 5. 3 is cut shorter than 5, but I don't know what the unit of measurement is

Only 6 months actually (April vs October)

Tim Apple ?

You do realise that aluminium (ium) is not spelled the same as aluminum (um) ? It's not a case of the same letters being pronounced two different ways

That's not angry enough

Over the last few years I've started to notice this weird increase in people misspelling the word paid as 'payed'. Where is this coming from ?

I doubt there's any actual AI in the LG product, it's just a marketing buzzword like they used to use the term 'smartwash'

The driver is wqhl approved, but the update file was full of nulls and broke it.

Microsoft developed an api that would allow anti malware software to avoid being in ring 0, but the EU deemed it to be anti competitive and prohibited then from releasing it.

The crowdstrike driver has the boot_critical flag set, which prevents exactly what you describe from happening

I'm not sure that anyone claimed Biden was the most popular demograt candidate ever, it's more that he was the safe choice, and dems have always played it safe..at least until this week where they've finally taken a chance on something.
