  There’s a decent chance it’s in the US. But it’s by no means a safe assumption that someone using an iPhone and writing in English is automatically in the US.

  With the other context I agree that it’s 99% likely to be the US. But the iPhone barely plays a role in that. Like I said, most iPhone users don’t live in the US. Most people arguing about 2 weeks notice in English with their boss probably do.

  I was just being a bit overly pedantic, is all.

  So they’re at 27% market share globally (and are the most popular brand globally, though several trail closely). There are over 7 billion smartphone users in the world, so nearly 2 billion iPhone users. There are under 400 million Americans. Meaning if you pick a random iPhone user out of the 2 billion, there’s an 80% chance it’s not an American.

  In what universe does “iPhone user, therefore probably American” make sense?

  You do realize that any big enough instance hosting cp WILL get in trouble with authorities, not to mention that no sane admin wants to host it anyway? And that by federating with those instances, you’re hosting their content on your instance too.

  So it’s everyone else’s. That’s why we’re at the point we’re at.

  That’s like saying “you’re driving a BMW, must be in Europe” lmao

  have people not played the Horizon games? They’re awesome, they’re fun as hell.

  I have actually not. Thank you!

  I liked it because it was a learning app and I have a tendency to fall off. But paying real money to restore my streak? Hell nah

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Let my Duolingo streak expire cos I don't want to give them any more AI training for free and this popped up 🙄⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:

  At this point I’m thinking I’ll just take a trip to Tenerife to continue learning Spanish.

  Other apps aren’t good at gamification I hear - and that was the only thing that kept me using it till a while ago. I have ADHD. The leveling up, streaks, etc, is what kept me going when the novelty of learning yet another foreign language wore off - I already had to learn two in school and I only ever really use one of them, you can guess which one.

  He put out another Bad Boys sequel last year. I’m pretty sure he’s doing aight financially. If not, he’s a moron and it’s funny because it’s always funny when rich people go broke.

  Chrysler 300M. Second car I ever owned, kept it for years

  Still increases your electricity bill. Why can’t the smoker just have the common decency to not smoke next to an open window? I know I never do, it’s just rude.

  This average height manlet here is glad to be off Tinder. It sucks. I’d honestly rather pay prostitutes. I’ve never done that, but seems better value for money if you value your time as much as money (and I personally value it more)

  I hope she enjoys the Mini! Though at this point that’s a fairly modern car. 15 years old is 2010 and many of those allow retrofitting factory options for sound. I’m looking to get Carplay in my brand new 18 year old German shitbox that’s both falling apart and in excellent shape at the same time. Mr12volt has kits for a lot of those, but sadly no Minis.

  2018 here lol

  I’m assuming you’ve moved on, but if not, there are FM transmitters for when you want music or navigation instructions from your phone to play over the vehicle’s speakers. Bluetooth or 3.5mm jack ones are both available.

  The standard these days is just faaaaar more to the right unfortunately.

  Might be that the only one that gets any fresh air into their office is the one closest to the smoker.

  Not everyone has decent ventilation.

  I guess people don’t have a lot of money to spend on movies so when they go, they go for a safe choice. Personally I haven’t seen any of these remakes in theatres, only go watch a big franchise if it’s something I really enjoy (I absolutely am going to go watch Mission Impossible even though it’s the gazillionth movie) or something new entirely. I actually enjoyed in the lost lands even though it was far from perfect.

  He seems to be a pretty mild right winger tbh. Maybe a centrist by US standards. Honestly seems like one of the few libertarians who aren’t just conservatives but with weed.

  He endorsed a D flavored rich prick over the R flavored rich prick in 2020 for what that’s worth.

  Doesn’t seem to be in my country yet, but apparently it’s in a few other EU countries so there’s hope yet!

  In the meantime I log into Facebook when I need to buy used car parts. There’s other sites but it’s nowhere near as usable as just writing “hey someone wanna sell me a 3.0 tdi (BMK/ASB) turbo pls” into the Audi group on Facebook. Such is the life of driving shitboxes anyway.

  I just buy what’s comfy. And cheap. Most of all, I buy the first pair that fits. Who has time to worry about style, really?
