I remember there being some Android phone (some generation of Samsung Galaxy S series probably) with a "feature" where it pauses video playback if you look away from it. Good thing it didn't catch on.
In a rich man’s house there is no place to spit but his face.

One of the greatest quotes of all time.
What credit card company? That seems like such blatant fraud.
Once my friend put total in place of tips. He was very drunk that day. He went over next day to talk to them and they obviously fixed it. That seems like common sense to me.
Good thing that these things haven't really taken off in my home country. Otherwise, you don't even need to submit your DNA. If enough of your stupid relatives do it, they'll have a good idea about you.
For a total newbie, Linux Mint or PopOS are probably the best options. But EndeavourOS is getting there. There shouldn't be any issues during the installation if one sticks to the defaults. Only thing is, it doesn't come with a graphical package manager out of the box. But once that is installed (I think anyone will be happy to write a single terminal command, at least), I don't see why it's any harder to use than any other distro.
The /s doesn't really belong here.
To be fair, no one's blaming "the Jews". We're blaming Israel, which is a very different thing.
In Bengali folklore, we have this thing called Nishi. It's a nocturnal spirit that wanders around, and calls people by name. She'll knock on your door, and call you by name. If you answer, you're placed under her control. And she'll take you to some remote location, and kill you. It's also said that if she calls you 3 times, and you hear all 3 calls, there's no way you can resist answering her.
In my childhood, sometimes people would be found passed out in the forests, and it'd be attributed to the Nishi. I think that they were just drunk/high, and went along with it when the others said it was Nishi.
There's a Hindi horror comedy movie named Stree on a similar folklore from another part of India. It's pretty good, would recommend it.
Everyone is always promoting that app, so I don't understand why y'all are butthurt when anyone complains about it.
It's a decentralized continuous file synchronization tool. It's literally magic.
Only way to watch good quality content on Linux is pirating. So, fuck 'em media houses. Imma sail my ship to the high seas!
When you buy a research paper, the author doesn't get any cut from it. The journals are scams, and should be destroyed. Until that happens, try searching on arxiv.org first, usually there are preprints available there. If not, contact the authors. Most of us are happy to share our results. Your local library can also help you get access to those.
These are the more legitimate ways, and then there's sci-hub. I've actually seen internationally renowned researchers open a paper using sci-hub on their laptop lol.
