As a Canadian, I'm like:
You guys are getting food?
(School cafeterias with food service beyond selling terrible premade sandwiches for people who forgot their lunch are rare below college level and AFAIK what few exist all operate like a fast-food restaurant, where everyone pays for their meal then and there.)
Wait it was? How are we still seeing it and commenting on it?
I don't really understand DNR. Why not get medically assisted suicide? Or heck, just end your own life?
Seems better than dying a painful, gradual death as your organs shut down from cancer or something.
I live in Quebec. Our ambulances cost money too. Although they're less expensive than American ones (about 200 CAD).
And yeah, literally everyone thinks that's stupid.
Lots of stores prohibit this because they're afraid it might make stealing easier. But not all of them!
My TV is insulting like that. It technically has an EQ, but it makes no perceivable difference no matter what I do in it.
But assuming it worked, wouldn't doing that strictly with sound frequencies cause issues? Like, okay, most voices are louder because I boosted their frequency, but now that one dude with a super low voice is quieter, plus any music in the show is distorted. Or something like that.
I wish they just provided separate tracks that you could control. One track for dialogue, one track for music, one track for sound effects, and maybe one track for less important voices. Then let us adjust the volume of each. That would help so much. And they basically HAVE to do it at some point in the process anyway if they want multilingual dubbing to work.
Speaking of dubbing: recently I've taken to watching more content dubbed in French strictly because it's almost always intelligible, contrary to the aRtIsT aCcUrAtE volumes of the original. Pretty sad that I have to do that though.
That is not what I'm suggesting. I'm not saying charging only cables shouldn't exist. I'm saying what everything does should be clearer.
I've always wondered. Is there really a benefit to a ton of redirects like that? Like, do they gain anything by making it harder to back out?
Or is it just extremely incompetent website programming?
I absolutely love wildly inaccurate old maps. They have so much charm.
Ugh, don't remind me of how the transition to LEDs was handled. Should we use yellow LEDs to make it non-obnoxious? Nah, just blast everyone's eyes with cool white LEDs.
As a pedestrian often struggling to see what the heck I'm doing when walking along a road at night, I'm not sure I agree with it being not such a big deal. I mean, true, I can't really cause an accident that big considering I'm not a multi-ton death machine, but...
As for brighter = safer, I'm not sure either. Wouldn't people see better in the inevitable area outside of their headlights if headlights weren't so bright as to set their eyes up into "daylight mode"?
It saves an amount of money so minuscule it literally makes no difference.
As for thickness, the iPhone 15 is 7.8 mm thick. You cannot in good faith believe that a 3.5 mm headphone jack can't fit in it.
