And, let me guess, you don't intend to quit

Probably because there is a, perceived or cultivated, associations between Muslims and immigrants/people of color. And if you can't outright punish someone based on "race" you go after the closest thing.

Based in the news I've read, the Russian government, and also the ones of many neighboring countries

Potable

Bonus points I discovered after a bachelor's degree and most of a master's:

If you pay attention in class you'll understand most of the material, and the rest you can ask the professors directly. Truly astounding.

I was thinking about the technical details and didn't stop to consider the implications, nice answer.

Also unexpected lost in space reference.

The whole cake read "happy birthday fatass"

I understand your point and admit my comment could definitely be interpreted that way.

I could be a dick about it and demand people learn to pronounce it the way us Italians do, but then I'd also have to start pronouncing every English loan word perfectly and with a correct English accent while speaking Italian, and you can do that without sounding like a pretentious asshole, so I won't.

Of course, I just found it interesting there's no equivalent sound

Even that is an approximation, I don't think English has the Italian gn sound, which is the same as Spanish ñ.

I can't think of any way to spell it that'd lead to a precise pronunciation, or any English word that contains that specific sound.

That'd be your subby big tiddy goth girlfriend

In the woods just some way off the trail we were just walking on

USB-A's legacy lives on

Those would be my choices too. Amazing stuff

But Jesus drove a Honda.

Funny story, it reported "package reached country of destination" for days, and I was waiting for it to say something like "delivering today".

Turns out, the package was already in mailbox. Was probably there for days lol

I've been waiting for a package since the end of November, and I checked it again just to spite you

Took me more than 30 years, but I've finally realized that dancing fun and it doesn't matter is you look like a fool.

Plus you never know what could happen on the dance floor wink wink

I use earphones to listen to music and take calls hads free quite often.

I recently got a new phone, a Fairphone 5, which doesn't have a headphone jack, and I'm already missing it.

Listening to music is fine, I just use a USB-C to jack adapter, but I've been told people can't hear me well when I'm doing the same to take a call.

The other day I was in the car with my brother for hours and wanted to put on some music. I couldn't connect to the car radio via Bluetooth because my brother already was and needed it to take calls and whatnot, so AUX cable here we go. Except apparently my phone does something weird like shutting down the USB port when not in use (reasonable) between songs, creating a noise like when you connect a jack to a powered on speaker, which was super annoying.

So, yes, I use the headphones jack and sorely miss it.
