  • Aux ports are nice for versatility, even if I was already using wireless earphones. Along with being able to listen to FM right on your phone. It’s features I don’t use often, but occasionally. I wish the USB-C connector had the option with a clip. IR-blasters were useful and much fun. I never even used the actual remote to manage my LED strip.

    I never realized notification lights just kind of stopped existing. But I don’t miss them in light of always on displays. Under screen finger print readers is basically a dream come true. Having multiple cameras is nice. OLED screen is an absolute godsend. Overall I’m not unhappy.




  • I’m saying one is better than the other, significantly even. But yes, trucks in general are infuriating. They’re more dangerous for other road users in every single way. You can barely see people over the hood. Other road users are not crash compatible and they use up a lot of space and use a lot of fuel. There’s no reason for these to be around other than feeding people’s egos.

    Block the flow of traffic. Vehicle traffic has predefined rules to deal with this and it happens all the time. Now you’re forcing pedestrians to go onto the road creating a safety hazard. Strollers, like with OP, or disabled people or really you name it are severely disadvantaged by this, just because this person needed a gigantic car thought vehicle traffic was more important than pedestrians.




  • Honestly, whenever something breaks in Windows and there isn’t a quick fix I know or can find easily, I just reinstall. Ultimately you can probably find a fix. But the install process of Windows is pretty painless and fast nowadays. It’s not that hard to get all the programs and settings back, with some exceptions of course. And you know, it’ll probably, keep working.


  • I mean, but they being used a singular has been a thing outside of people using different pronouns and this issue being pronounced (lol). You can also refer to multiple people and so can the Dutch formal equivalent of “u”.

    There’s lots of instances of things in language cussing slight confused, but they’re usually not hard to overcome.

    Maybe say “they went with that group”. Or just the person’s name. If I don’t know the person, I might make a little description of them, like “oh yeah, the cool person we just met with blue hair”.

    Pronouns and generally gendered or gender neutral language like that is a little bit confusing in Dutch (outside the ‘traditional’ binary genders). It all works a lot nicer in English, but maybe that’s because I’m more familiar with everything in English and I speak it more. But in Dutch I’ll generally rephrase altogether and avoid it.

    I’m sometimes confused how to fit neopronouns into my grammer. But honestly just doing it and fixing it when messing up seems to work okay. I do like neopronouns. All words are made up, why not make your own?
