  Or be the same problem. Best to check before. My experience where this is done is that all providers tend to do it. Naturally there may be exceptions.

  Plus eSIM and you’re golden?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨This drip coffee is now $5 dollars, up from $2.50 3 years ago⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I didn’t like coffee until I happened to try some literally home grown and home roasted. Was super nice, smooth and fruity. Since then I like that one and those similar to it. Coffee also objectively tastes different depending on where it was grown (Colombia/Mexico is acidic, slightly) and how it was roasted.

  Use aliases and retire them when they’re “leaked”.

  I’ve still got an active Gmail account and I don’t fully trust it with spam either. You’ve always got to check.

  Just think of all the missed revenue in both insurance and medical sectors /s

  I’m guessing that’s the reason they’re pressing to to in and inspect. Even though at the end they didn’t go. So they weren’t justified at all.

  They’re just pressing so that people cave in and think "well they must be in the right, they have the law (policeman) on their side.

  I seriously doubt that they’ve ended up suing the guy.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨500,000 households cancel TV licence putting BBC future in jeopardy⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I actually remember seeing this before. But if not a warrant, what did they have then? Just a pretend paper? Because if it was an actual warrant, they would have gone in?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨500,000 households cancel TV licence putting BBC future in jeopardy⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  And that’s a legal tactic? That’s basically spying on people and what they do in their houses.

  So are bicycles and kitchen knives. Ffs

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  A theoretical trillion or a real trillion though?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The Art of the Deal⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Instead, TotalEnergies will now spend the money on the development of a new liquified natural gas plant in Texas that will help export US LNG overseas to Europe, CEO Patrick Pouyanné said in a statement.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨meat honey⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  While I would agree on the surface, it’s not really depravity. We’ve got to do away with rotting meat somehow. Hence why vultures are so important.

  Still upvoted though.

  That’s neat, I’ll definitely have a look about the topic.

  I hear you. They should be on a roll, like film 😁

  Except that one can’t have weather as a phenomenon without atoms.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨We'll probably never see a Grand Theft Auto set in a futuristic city like GTA 2 because the team "hated it": "People didn’t connect with the game or its city"⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Boy oh boy, you’re right 😂

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨We'll probably never see a Grand Theft Auto set in a futuristic city like GTA 2 because the team "hated it": "People didn’t connect with the game or its city"⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Man, what memories. I’ve also enjoyed the London(?) version.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I need to vent about plastic milk jugs⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  That guy REALLY should have put an explanation there. Afaik there’s one province in Canada that still uses bags. Historically (30 years ago) many countries have used bags. Today most use either tetrapak, smaller bottle style plastic (0.25, 0.5, 1.0 litres) or actual bottles.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Just opened a new jar of jam, only to find mold in it.⁩ ⁨⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  If you see it it implies that there’s orders of magnitude larger concentration.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Just opened a new jar of jam, only to find mold in it.⁩ ⁨⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Actually this can be risky. Mold might be cut from hard foods because it usually doesn’t penetrate too deep, if not too overgrown. Soft foods tend to have “tendrils” all over that are often not visible to the naked eye.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Phones may come without bundled USB cables in the future, if OEMs have their way⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah. But they should literally charge less then. Even if only 5 buckaroos.

  Isn’t it about the same in the series?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨1919 (correctly)⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I hate it… When you actually need a person you can’t reach them. Is it really so hard to toggle DND? I really haven’t got any issue with that.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨New Arizona law to restrict online porn access; Pornhub will block state⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Because they’re providing services over there and they’re subject to local laws.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨VW introduces monthly subscription to increase car power⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  They’ve had this before, but you’ve had to change chips. Was also hacked. Except that it was a one-off payment now upgraded to subscription.

  Surface tension at its best. And its max.

  Where I fly they also always advise to remain fastener regardless of no immediate warnigs. Exactly for situations like this - and others.

  As nice as that sounds, you’re just asking for a gigantic lawsuit, most likely.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How much spacing while stopped at a red light?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t know… People have wildly different positions in a car and this easily fluctuates for a few car lengths. Then again, people in general suck at estimating distances.
