I finally checked out the etymology of armor/armour.

Somehow, only British English spells it “armour”. Even the original French doesn’t spell it that way, but “armeure”.

Usually the atypical spelling is post-Webster American, due to his attempts to make spelling simpler.

In this case, no spellings match the original French/Latin.

Automotive engine control computers.

They just work, for decades and millions of miles.

Hahahahah

No, that’s not how it works at all.

I had no idea it tasted “soapy” to some people until I was… Older. Like multiple decades in age.

Then I only found out from a friend who’d become one helluva cook and he told me it tastes like soap to him - and that’s how it is for some people.

I am a meat popsicle

It is?

According to whom, again? Incan guarantee the ketchup I use isn’t “high in sugar”, whatever that means, and I’m not eating by the cup anyway.

What do you mean by “high”?

Again, more pseudoscience.

They’re 2 different things, with different purposes. This whole post is nonsense.

I’ve seen shops that only take cash, with an ATM in the store.

I kind of get it for small shops. Even just reconciling the register every day is way easier with just cash.

In the early days of CC you were charged per transaction.

Then you weren’t.

Now they’re doing it again.

I’ve seen it vary by card and vendor many times.

Edit: by Early Days I mean when electronic clearing became ubiquitous in the early 90’s, as the clearing houses charged per cleared transaction. Before that you literally mailed the card that was imprinted via the credit card machine.

According to whom? You?

No thanks. I get my pseudo science elsewhere

Wow, now it requires cosmetic surgery to use different lighting too?

That’s not uniquely Russian.

You mean can I turn the pocket computer in my pocket into a computer?

Weird, it’s never done anyting like that for me.

I know it gas some volume leveling options, though I’ve never used them, and I’ve used it for what seems like 10 years.

It’s definitely not perfect - getting sync to work can be a challenge.

Have you gotten older? How many “older” people have you interviewed to come to this assumption?

You posted a statement claiming to know how older people think - he was correcting your arrogant assumption.

Downvoters don’t know about etymonline.

Engine

Motor

To your point, “engine” at one time referred specifically to an electrically driven device, and “motor” referred to something combustion driven.

Etymologically, engine means “mechanical device” and motor originates in Latin meaning “mover”.

I do agree with OP that a 2 wheel contrivance with any kind of motor/engine is a motorcycle (motorized cycle) from a regulatory perspective, though I’d never call one a motorcycle.

It’s fine. The cooler just needed to go on a little walkabout.

Use it as a security camera.

May just be file system view needs a refresh. I see this all the time. Hit F5 on the Explorer view to force a refresh.

Only ever takes me seconds to create a PDF (when I do it, which is rarely).

You could also save it in an old version of Word - pretty much any app can read versions like Word 97 these days, or choose another (open) document format.
