This is my understanding. WhatsApp took off at a time and in places where SMS was expensive. Because WhatsApp used data, they could keep data usage low and allow people to message almost for free.

Yeah true. Can’t give you a list to pick from I guess haha, just annoying that I know the countries but sometimes can’t spell them!

Yeah I guess they have limited resources, and their aim is to have the older games work on modern PCs. Not sure when you were doing this but I can absolutely understand that Windows 7 compatibility isn’t a focus for them in 2026 since MS support ended in 2023.

Well done! I can never achieve anything other than a blob. I gave up and just drink coffee black now.

A significant number of games released before 2005 had digital releases later. It’s basically GOGs whole thing.

Damn I didn’t realise it was timed. Trying to do all that typing on mobile was a bit slow, I only got to 80 before running out of time, and still hadn’t done Europe and only started on Africa.

A bit rough they make you spell them all!

I have only ever managed a blob, even after following guides. I mostly drink my coffee black because I’m so embarrassingly bad at this.

I live in a country with free healthcare and private health insurance. I even have private health insurance. But I have it through a nun-profit organisation that pays out ninety-something cents in claims for every dollar of premiums paid. So I’m ok with it.

Yes but this depends significantly on where you live.

Sure. Any driving you do increases your risk of death. But it’s likely you need to drive for other reasons that reduce your risk of death (like buying food).

Drinking is different because no one needs to drink.

My phone changes lenses automatically as I zoom the camera in and out. So I use them even though I’m not really actively choosing to use a different lens.

It pretty much always was?

It’s a tertiary source, so not appropriate for citing in your essays, but that isn’t a comment on the accuracy.

Welcome!

I work with someone whose job involves writing design documents. They have Copilot write it and then send it out for other people to review, and you can tell they haven’t even read it themselves.

Then in meetings they talk with confidence about things, you think it doesn’t sound right and ask for a link to learn more, and they admit they just asked Copilot.

Like I am not sure what this person does themselves because they seem to be farming out the entire core part of their job.

Yeah active. Sorry I wasn’t clear, it was obvious why the army guys could beat me, they odd thing was that I could beat most everyone else.

When I was in university I could beat anyone in an arm wrestle except for the army guys, and it was never that clear to me why.

Refusing to engage with a defiant printer sounds pretty smart TBH.

Ah, seems we might have gone through a phase but from your graph it looks like colours are returning.

The explosion of white is not a surprise, considering it’s seen as one of the safest colours, but black and silver seem at similar levels at the end of that graph as the start.

But I will admit that is evidence for newer cars being predominantly greyscale. I think there are probably a lot of older cars where I am.

Weird. I see many different coloured vehicles, I wouldn’t say the road around here was predominantly white, grey, and black.

The recent theme seems to be de-saturated, pastel colours. I don’t like them but I wouldn’t call them grey.
