“My source is that I made it the fuck up”

Pretty sure the samurai were so much into the idea of beating their neighbors that they immediately jumped onto guns almost immediately after the first few got shipped from Europe.

Didn’t the Alphabet rebranding happen because boomer investors were confused about which Google stock to invest in?

Crazy that Koji Kondo got on there before Tezuka, Aonuma and Koizumi, though it most likely helps to have a longer history working for the company than they do.

You literally have four different fonts in one screenshot. At least use a weather app that is less horrendous to look at, like Breezy Weather if you insist on open source.

A population under 10k is closer to a village than a city. There are towns with a population of 5k that do indeed have their own clinics and even their own train stations as long as they are not located on the side or the top of a mountain, though it is extremely rare for a mountaintop settlement to have a population greater than 3k.

It is honestly baffling to see that people can not fathom that urban sprawl can take shape without suburbanization. You can have houses concentrated into small splotches of land and those are chained together by a singular road and railway. Everything around that is just farmland. That’s just how villages look like in Europe.

All you’d have to do is do away with american zoning regulations and use european urban design principles instead. The market itself is impatiently waiting for that change in policy to happen.

Even cities below a population of 100k have their own hospital and dozens of doctor’s offices all within a ten minute walking distance from each other.

Oh, Apple’s ecosystem is absolutely brilliant, but the problem is that it only works with Apple hardware and software with no indication of future cross platform compatibility. So you basically get suckered into buying Apple products only, if you want to keep your passwords, documents, podcasts, etc.

Like migrating into Apple’s platform is easy, but moving back out is almost impossible. The main problem lies with how irritating it can get to consume content provided by services outside their domain.

Personally I am happy with my Macbook, because I can still download and install apps without using the App Store, but I could never see myself migrating to iOS because that would mean losing my manga collection, my emulators, the ability to watch free movies on Stremio, etc.

Edit: Oh, yeah the iOS keyboard is an absolute travesty. It makes textboxes so frustrating to deal with. How can you have a virtual keyboard without a clipboard in this day and age?

They roll their own crypto which is a big no-no in information security.

There is something you should know about those controllers:
