Why doesn’t the big-brain-science-technology-man just make a mod that let’s him? Shouldn’t be too hard for the guy who claims to be able to perform every role in his company.
It’s just odd, anything ever made with a user interface since the 80’s has had a calculator app. Apple just remove features and charge more for something that is inherently similar to everything else they’ve ever done.
Except there are tons of free calculator apps, so they aren’t charging more in this case. Your criticism of Apple, in general, is warranted. Just not in this case.
I’m all for choice or whatever, but a simple system-provided calculator should be benign and lightweight enough to be there and coexist with any competing calculator app without much drawback. Like a clock or web browser.
Mostly with ads. It’s easy to argue that a calculator is more fundamental to a functional tablet than a web browser is, and Apple includes one. By all means, there ought to be a market for calculator apps, but it’s pretty fundamental to cover the basics. Also, Apple already has a calculator on iPhone and iPad runs pretty much the same software, so where is it?
You can use the search bar for quick calculations. That doesn’t escuses Apple from adding an calculator app on iPad! Most calculator apps have ads or are paid
I obviously can’t speak for everyone, but as someone who has had obscenely over-producing fruit trees in their front yard, I never, ever minded people picking them. 95% are just going to fall into the grass and become lawn waste for me.
the YouTube one, are you kidding me? I could find a free course on how to do nearly anything, I could just scroll through a playlist and instantly learn months worth of material.
While that’s happening, I never considered scrolling through playlists of multiple mechanical and scientific shit and basically becoming Jimmy Neutron overnight. By then you’d be the greatest inventor/handyman/musician and I doubt a stray video about bullshit would ruin all of that
Won’t the gifts also be a mere probabilitywave, and observing the space under the sciencemas tree would cause it to collapse into a single gift at a single location?
Each present is a real particle, but their distribution is affected by the self-interaction of quantum santa. This allows every present to have the same initial trajectory but different destinations.
There are a bunch of events who use holiday times for other things.
In German we refer the time from first christmas day to first day of the next year just as “between the years”. (Some other languages do that as well) It seems the English term for that is “twelve nights”. That refers to a lunar calendar (354 days) being a bit shorter than a solar calendar (365.2422 days), which means you need to add leap days after the last day of the year to synchronize it with a solar calendar and the seasons which correlate with it. The roman calendar actually started with march.
Though it wouldn’t be hard to give christmas and the time around it more sciency names. Christmas is based on the winter solstice, the Roman calendar had winter solstice on 25th december and they celebrated the birth of their sun god, where they had parties and exchanged gifts.
Yea judoka had no striking game and boxer had no wrestling game. Under these conditions the grappler could just wait out the striker until catching a grapple, then win. This is why the Gracie family pushed UFC in the 90s, because karate-and-boxing-obsessed US audiences were constantly surprised by these matches, and it led to more people signing up for Brazilian Jiu Jitsu!
I don’t know much, but “just wait out the striker” is a skill too, no? The judoka seemed good at feinting and dodging punches, which isn’t something you practice in judo.
Yea that wasn’t meant to downplay the skill required to hang. But relatively speaking, defending with a goal to clinch up takes a ton less effort and risk than pursuing an offensive striking game.
Looking from the other direction, it is incredibly difficult to actually knock someone out who is only defending and waiting to get close to you.
