And specifically falls back to a very small mms, something like 100kb instead of 3mb for images.

That's why you always hear crap about androids having terrible cameras - most people only experience them through excessive apple compression.

So you're saying Hän is Solo?

It's funny because if Linux was where it is now, 10ish years ago, I probably would have stuck with it. All I cared about then was basic computering and gaming, both of which are well handled at this point.

Problem is now I've spent a decade honing my skills on specialized programs that don't have good replacements, and realistically even if they did, compatibility and years of learning specific programs have locked me in to Windows.

A lot of the FICO scores (there are different scores for different things) don't ding you for it, but most of the monitoring apps use Vantage.

I find the difference between my FICO 8 and Vantage 3 to be as much as 100 points. Most people seem to have higher Vantage scores, but my FICO tends to be higher. They're different companies that use different systems.

They can/do include rent, but landlords tend to only report it if you're delinquent.

I’m about to try to find tv dinners that taste good or something. I legit starve sometimes because I literally can’t eat it.

Impossible has some vegi-based microwave dinners that are about $6 a pop at Walmart, and are absolutely fantastic. The "chicken" ones are a bit high on the sugar content though.

Here it's Popeye's... which they seem to have at least maintained a decent quality/price ratio. Their wait times are atrocious though. Zaxby's is even worse, but they at least have a big enough parking lot to stay out of the road. That line has taken a half hour to move up 1 car length before.

And to be honest, before I buy a burger for €5 I buy a Kebab or Shawarma which beat every burger in taste and amount of food

Man, I miss doner kababs so much. I haven't quite found anything similar back stateside.

I think it was only 3 when I first signed up, so that's an improvement. They probably hit the ones most likely to honor takedown requests, but yeah 190 sites is more than 10. $9 is more than $0 too though, so it's a balance.

I wonder how many sites like this actually exist. Probably over a thousand would be my guess.

Sounds like you're looking at their identity theft bullshit? The data removal is free, but only for 10 sites.

Wind is finite, and there has actually been research done to estimate the impact slower winds would have (a few degrees iirc), it's just that this is massively offset by the pros of using wind.

Beats my state which passed a DC fast charge tax of nearly $3 per kwh while suspending gas taxes.

$120 in taxes per charge for a fairly normal EV. Yay.
