You just reminded me I've got to mail my modem back. Thanks!

Am I the only one annoyed at the graph being backwards? The past goes on the left, the present on the right.

You just know someone in the chain wanted to be able to say, 'we were the first', then they got fact checked and had to add in that qualifier of commercially available ground station.

Surely any rational individual already acknowledges that subject as lunacy. The segment of people that after seeing the joke would fall victim to the conspiracy is bound to be smaller than the segment that find it mildly amusing.

Strikes me as fishy that the finance ministry went to court with Apple to say 'no don't pay tax'.

If they don't want the tax, have the cheque made out to the EU.

“Ireland does not give preferential tax treatment to any companies or taxpayers,” stated a spokesperson from the Irish Ministry of Finances.

I wish the media would eviscerate these people like they used to.

How much money is being spent on this I wonder... enough to fix the electrical grid?

As someone that tries to condense posts and comments, I have 'Show action bar by default for comments' disabled. Now, as score location has been altered, I'm not able to see comment score. More problematic is there's no longer an indication of whether I have already voted on a comment or not.

In order to get this information now, I either must enable the action bar for every comment which fills a lot of the screen with buttons that I don't need, or press and hold the comment to expand the action bar manually. This is a reduction in displayed information that doesn't seem proportional to the benefit of a 'cleaner' style.

At the very least, I'd think the score should be put back next to the commenter's name when the action bar is disabled.

Oddly enough, last year I used dish soap in the laundry for a few months without noticing, and nothing like this happened. I was surprised when I looked it up and saw this kind of thing as a common occurrence. Couldn't believe I had picked up this container each weekend for months without noticing the picture of plates and glasses on the front.

I understand now these soaps are quite different from one another and the fact nothing happened to me is a fluke, so definitely don't do this on purpose.

These things happen to everyone from time to time.

I myself misworded some comments just the other day in frustration and inadvertently caused an upset. No worries at all. It's big of you to come in here and correct yourself. It speaks volumes to the type of person you are.

Cheers.

I've been using Organic Maps (from F-Droid) and it has a "Keep the screen on" option in the settings. That said, I've never had the screen dim while navigating to a destination. The setting I mentioned prevents timeout when you've got the map open but not on route somewhere.

Funny how I even typed December and it didn't click in my head it was a different season.

Writing when tired isn't a recipe for well thought comments evidently.
