As someone with a slight accent: good. I want you to hear what I’m saying, not my accent.
Regardless, active listening is the way to go. Learn what to listen for and maybe try to actively place the accent once you recognize the markers.
Just please listen to the words first.
Your move, Blizzard and Bethesda. This is the boss fight we need.
John Oliver did a show related to this. There doesn’t seem to be a lot of restrictions on what can happen to your body once it has been donated.
You don’t say what type of programming you do, or if you’re just learning or developing professionally, but maybe something fully online would work? For example repl.it, stackblitz, or Visual Studio Code for the Web.
I second the suggestion for getting a Bluetooth keyboard for the iPad.
Sounds like great incentive for Zuck to do everything in his power to make sure Trump doesn’t get reelected.
Since refried beans is not countable, I vote for “too much”.
Example:
Or like someone else suggested, make the noun singular and call them “refried bean paste”. This will probably raise more eyebrows than much/many confusion, though.
I don’t mind them when used appropriately, but remember that us old people may struggle to make out which emoji we’re looking at when the text is small.
To my eyes it also looks out of place in professional writing, so I would find it hard to take you seriously if you use emojis in such a context.
TL;DR: in a casual context, go nuts, but avoid for important communication where clarity and professionalism matters.
When I was younger, Norwegians would often travel to Denmark and bring back bright red meat, which was not approved for sale in Norway. Now I finally realize they were just trying to make us leave.
If we’re talking about technology that is no longer widely used, it’s probably my old HP48SX from the early 90s. Still use it sometimes as a desk calculator, though I have an HP48GX emulator app on my phone as well. Gotta have my RPN.
Unless I misunderstood what you said, that’s not it either. 50% chance of rain means exactly that: according to their forecast models, there is a 50% change it will rain. Snopes did a writeup of this.
Very good point, and I did not intend to make an argument about generations being different. Generations indeed consist wholly of individuals with their own opinions. On an individual level, age is no better an indicator of personality than your zodiac sign.
In my comment I just wanted to express that, after a long period of dread, I am feeling more hopeful after seeing so many members of the young generation getting engaged and making a difference where I personally feel we failed.
It was also meant to express appreciation and gratitude to those who are getting involved and as encouragement to those who are yet to do so.
As a Gen Xer I’m heartened to see Gen Z stepping up to literally save the world. Seeing the swell in support for Harris and in voter registration numbers, I for once am feeling hopeful. I hope they can accomplish what the forgotten generation couldn’t.
So many links are going to go dead because of this. I’m sure plenty of software out there used this to automatically shorten links for posting on social media etc.
Most of these reports are about preview builds of Windows.
That said, surely you have seen recommendations from Microsoft to try their Office package and such oil up. It’s like that, but more intrusive.
I can’t believe Microsoft is making me switch from Windows to Mac and Linux, but here we are.
For one, the United States lacks a good press corps of independent journalists with broad reach.
Everything is either politicized or commercialized. Shock value sells. Balanced rational discourse does not. Polarization makes too much money for too many people.
On top of that, a systematic destruction of education and a stranglehold of religion practically makes ignorance inevitable.
Maybe we could repair it, but it would take Republicans being blocked from making any decisions for several decades at this point.
Yes, unless it is encrypted, in which case you need a way to decode that. You can even boot an OS from a USB thumb drive to recover files from a hard drive.
Is moving the drive to another computer as a secondary drive an option? Or put it in a separate USB enclosure? That way you don’t need to boot it at all, unless it’s encrypted or something.

Peanut butter on bread as a side to chili (con carne).
Lol true
To OP’s point, my friends say I don’t have an accent, but the number of people who ask me where I’m from says otherwise.
