Yup! Stein (Robinson's opponent) has been polling with landslide numbers for weeks.
Meanwhile, R supermajority in the NC legislature is overriding governor Cooper's vetoes with some regularity.

It looks like the png is getting word wrapped. Line spacing is so large that the png on the second line is getting pushed into the space of the icon below, and the icon below is given a higher Z value, so it goes over it. The different font has a different letter width and can influence the line spacing by being taller than the original font.
See if you can find an option to reduce line spacing or an option to increase icon spacing (vertical or horizontal). I would expect these to be advanced settings though. Iirc, most Linux desktops don't use ellipses on long names, like some other operating systems (macOS iirc).
Yes. I'm not sure what you think makes you bad at writing bug reports, but here are tips I give to everyone (my day job involves working with bug reports).
Nominally, a decent bug report should have:
- the steps that got you the bug
- whether you can reproduce the bug
- what you expected to happen instead of the bug
Doing any of these things makes bug reports so much more actionable. You can do it. I believe in you!
Edit: Including a contact method so the software developer can have a conversation with you can also be helpful but not strictly required. Some bug reporting methods do this implicitly, like email bug reports and GitHub issues.
It's available in the API and in some apps. I'm using Memmy for iOS right now and I get both.
It's exactly this. The policies put in place by "healthcare administrators" (MBAs and such with healthcare flavoring, not people that actually know how to care for people's health like doctors and nurses) are designed to process the most patience in the least amount of face time possible, so that each doctor and nurse can see more patients per day, meaning more office visit fees, meaning higher profit. My dad calls it the "cattle shoot" and I feel that's a pretty apt analogy. It's the same general reason that fast food restaurants and pharmacies and department stores are perpetually understaffed: fewer staff members means lower "overhead" costs.
Linking outside of their website would reduce engagement, thus ad revenue. I'd put money on this is why so many news sites rarely link out anymore.
This is called "Embrace, Extend, Extinguish". Microsoft coined the term internally for their responses to open standards in the 90's and 00's.

The team I was on at work number of years ago had to hash this exact thing out because we had a "biweekly" status and was confusing people. We ultimately landed on not using the term.
Bimonthly and biannually have the same problem.
There are two definitions, according to the major dictionaries I can view (OED requires a subscription):
https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/biweekly https://dictionary.cambridge.org/dictionary/english/biweekly https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/biweekly https://www.dictionary.com/browse/biweekly
So, the usage of biweekly as a synonym for semi-weekly is sufficiently high enough to land it in the dictionary, alongside a definition of every-two-weeks, and make biweekly an ambiguous and confusing term.

The recommendation changed from car lengths to seconds decades ago, but wasn't well communicated fwict. I learned car lengths from my dad and then seconds when I got my motorcycle endorsement.
If everyone were leaving 2 seconds of space, it also reduces stop and go traffic that is caused, or at least exacerbated, by the traffic wave phenomenon. But that's even less well socialized.
