Ahh yes, dropping nuclear weapons right next door, risking fallout in your own territory and pissing off every country around you, as well as all your allies. Why not?

Its safety is not the crux of the argument from the anti-choice, but it is the flimsy legal excuse they're using to try to revoke its FDA approval.

Probably true.

It's because as the hot air rises, cool air comes in from all sides of the fire. Your body blocks that air from one side, so the prevailing current of cool air feeding the fire is biased towards you and it carries the smoke with it.

If you give them permissions. Speaking from Android. Don't know how iOS works.

That tactic is more viable for defending areas you're stuck at for a while. Civilian extraction, landing zone defense, missile silo, etc.

I wasn't aware of swipe down. Not sure if it was added later or I just missed it.

It's still there, and not because my phone is slow - even a brand new Pixel with no apps or Google account has this delay. It takes nearly 2 seconds to go home - long enough to make me question if I hit the home button.

Pixel 6 Pro, in use since release... I don't have any noticeable delay. Pressing the home button (I have 3-button navigation instead of gestures), the transition from foreground app to Nova home screen I'd estimate to be under 1/4 second. Feels pretty instantaneous.

I landed on Nova back in 2013 because it allowed me to assign secondary app shortcuts to icons on my dock that are accessed by swipe-up gestures. My hotbar has:

  • phone, but swipe up for contacts
  • messages, but swipe up for Gmail
  • music player, but swipe up for YouTube
  • Firefox, but swipe up for clock app

Haven't paid any attention to any newer launchers.
