There's a surprising amount of programmers that don't know basics of various parts of an operating system. I know people that know several languages, but get lost on installing a mod pack for a game or installing an app from within another app like a browser.

MicroXP!? What year is it!?

Some people will. The majority won't care.

Solids weigh different amounts. You are talking about ml here. This is a good example of why it isn't ideal.

It means for every $10 he gets charged, he's paying $3 for stuff like gst, carbon tax, etc. $7 is for the actual gas or whatever he is consuming.

Skull and bones. I'm not even kidding. I played it during a closed alpha and I hated sea of thieves.

Don't even need the auto drive off aspect.

A better comparison is where the car will no longer start no matter what you do to it. But you own the body/frame.

It's their personal preference just like yours. I know, crazy how someone might have the opposite opinion on something.

The difference here is that you can go into McDonald's and learn on the job with little to no difficulty in the process.

"Patties are found in the freezer here. Go into the freezer, grab a box, put it here, take out and put 9 on the grill, grab these salt & pepper shakers and shake once overtop and then press this button; once it beeps it's done and you throw them all into this warmer here." Jobs been mainly taught and you can rock that for a whole shift.

OP is using McDonald's as it's pretty universal to know the basics of life on that part. Like how to press a button, what a freezer is, how to carry something and how to move objects without ruining things.

Go ahead and try to teach someone how to be a doctor/dentist with the same common knowledge. Or how to get someone to program an application when they only know how to turn on an iPad and open an app.

I was hoping more people would use RCS but I guess SMS will probably be the old fax machine in the future.

Putting a child in and out of a bike carrier is a ton easier compared to a car seat. It's not really an issue.
