In China the vast vast majority of people live in a single timezone at the coast, so this is not really comparable.

Aweful idea: do you want to plan a meeting at 16:00 with colleagues in the US? It is very hard to tell if this makes sense without timezones. Is this in their working day? Or the equivalent of midnight? Or something else? There are no timezones, so there is no way of telling without looking at some shady website how many hours you are shifted - which is basically the concept of timezones anyway, but shittier.
They will shame you, for your messy code. People suck sometimes.
I think this is quite a common criticism to have, but a top-100 uni like this probably profits from keeping the status quo. Takes a bit of courage to step up.
Moissanite is chemically different to diamond (SiC vs C), has a different crystal structure, and is less hard. You can also get actual lab-grown diamond, but they are quite expensive. But you probabaly won't be able to tell the difference anyway.
For the lazy: "The oldest surviving torrent we have seen is a copy of the Matrix fan film “The Fanimatrix”."
Honestly, a bit of a mixed bag. The FP4 has some weird software issues sometimes, which you probably won't see at the big name brands: ghost touches, camera crashes (requires a reboot), problems with call quality, etc. I think the pros probably outweigh the cons, but something to keep in mind.
Not sure how big the problems are with custom ROMs. Also, FP5 is coming soon(-ish), so maybe some of the problems will be fixed?
It can hide cookie banners for you with the right settings. Since gdpr dictates no choice = no cookies, this should block all tracking stuff.
I don't remember what exactly you need to enable, but you can use DDG to find out.
Oops, yup, very true, I always confuse the Greek and Roman gods 😅
Just because I was curious: Sony comes from sonos, sound in Latin. Nike is the ~~Roman~~ Greek God of victory. Lego is is a Danish abreviation for "play well". Cisco comes from San Fransisco. Adobe is the name of a Creek near the founders house.
I mean, yeah, basically. It's really not very complicated.
But not if there are no timezones! Probably someone would find a way to display the shift anyway, but this is basically the old timezone system again, but without a (more-or-less) universal standard.
