Nah, forget the stupid additional awards they added. Just the good ol’ gold. It was a great idea to help pay for servers before they corrupted it seeking profit.
I think your brain learns to ignore them better at a certain point in life. So though you have fewer of them at a very young age, you notice them more because you haven’t filtered them out of your vision yet.
Get to Chicago, and don’t shy away from spinach. That shit’s delicious. I’m a fan of Giordano’s, but there’s a lot of valid argument about who does it best.
iOS will sometimes ask you even if the app has been using it (for certain permissions), and might even tell you how often the app has used it. Which is really handy.
Like, “this app has accessed your location from the background 48 times in the last month, you gave it permission, would you like to change it to ‘when using’?” Or “This app has had full access to your photos, would you like to limit it?” (Not exact wording, but you get the idea.)
Something that delighted me when I discovered it.
(Android does permissions very well too, I’m in no way trying to knock it.)
Spotify. I can already sing, and do so semi-professionally. I can kinda play two instruments and would be down to become better at them through practice if I already know how to play every song.
Waterloo (a flavored sparkling water like LaCroix) has a Cherry Limeade flavor that is vaguely reminiscent of Game Fuel, IMO. Obviously different since there’s no sweetener in Waterloo, but similar.
This may or may not be true for your area. Often people make this assumption when they’ve been told this factoid (including me for many years!), but visit your local recycling center to find out what they do. Sometimes yes, recycling gets landfilled. Or burned. But some places do the work and source stuff out. It’s worth finding out what happens to your waste.
(My wife is big into recycling, composting, etc, and has had a number of conversations with our local recycling people and has toured the plant a couple of times. She’s taught me a lot, and shown that at least in my area and for specific materials, a lot of what I cynically assumed about recycling just isn’t true.)
If you have that little charging puck connected to a cable thing. Yes. Yes you are plugging in your phone to charge.
Unless wherever you put your phone on at night is charging it without thought, wireless charging is not a thing.
Except I’m literally not “plugging in” the phone. I’m placing the phone onto a vertical magnetic surface that uses induction to provide electricity to the phone without wires connecting the charger to the device. That’s wireless.
And, for what it’s worth, because of the joy of magnetic alignment it largely is “without thought.” Though not the way you mean.
Just because your definition of “wireless” somehow seems to mean “charge anywhere on any surface” doesn’t mean wireless charging isn’t a thing. It just means you define it differently.
