This seems backwards. Isn't Pixel the Google phone? What you're saying is all other other phone makers besides Google are reaping the benefits while giving nothing back, isn't it?

I remember feeling this way when I was 18. I thought "well the laws already cover me, so why am I paying for this?"

Anyway, I grew up since then.

Is this bot-posted? Why is the alt text section showing the date in recent posts? Is this because they weren't doing alt text back then?

I love bash's -x option for exactly this type of debugging. It prints out every command before running it, so you can see what is different about the command as the script is running it

bash -x my-script.sh

Off the top of my head, I'm guessing the inline shell command $( ... ) is eating your double quotes, and I bet you should escape them, particularly around username and password

Gelsinger was hired as a known long time engineer, rather than as a business expert. I would trust his numbers from an engineering perspective, even though I was laid off under his rule

Sounds like Snakes on a Plane to me. That's precisely what I found fun about that ridiculous film

I'm my experience the scaled sort just has the same problem only the opposite. You end up with a feed full of mostly brand new posts in empty communities.

Either a dozen posts by a moderator of one community, or a single user posting the same thing to a dozen vaguely related communities.

Not that it helps people who literally can't afford it... But dental "checkups" are primarily about doing the cleaning, which is for preventing issues before they get that big. Identifying existing issues is secondary, but the regular dental appointment is doing more actual work than your typical physical examination.

Which is why most dental plans cover regular cleanings entirely, but you need to pay out of pocket for any other work you want. They would rather pay the entire cleaning bill every 6 months than pay part of your root canal once.

A mild headache is not even an inconvenience in my experience, so "suffer through it" is hyperbolic. As I said, they are most often caused by not drinking enough water, and drinking more water will usually resolve it anyway. If you want to drink tea instead of water, it's basically the same results, but it's the hydration that makes the difference.

If it is more than a mild headache and actually bothering me, then I'll go for a proper pain relief medication. I keep that on hand for that reason.

Well I just suffer through it if it's just a little headache. I'd rather not use any medication unless it's actually hindering my ability to be productive.

The majority of the time, a headache like that is caused by not drinking enough water in the first place, and that's always a better place to start
