In my head it was Elon who sketched the truck and told everyone "make that exactly how I drew it"

Not in elementary school

The radioactive source isn't used for power in smoke detectors, it's used to detect smoke. What small scale devices use radioactivity actually for power?

You can opt out of audiobooks and save the extra cost they added the other month. https://www.moneysavingexpert.com/news/2024/05/spotify-saving-basic-plan-audiobooks/?source=CRM-MSETIP-84b484ca1c047788624

I think your concerns are valid, but on the whole electric vehicles have the potential to improve more than ICE vehicles https://www.rac.co.uk/drive/electric-cars/running/do-electric-vehicles-produce-more-tyre-and-brake-pollution-than-petrol-and/

The extra mass of current EVs probably (note I don't know for sure) doesn't cancel out their other benefits, and as battery tech (and tyre tech I guess) improves they'll get better.

Lizards typically breathe faster than humans

I think the atmosphere can increase in volume when it gets warm because it's not a proper closed system, so the pressure doesn't go up in the same way.

Completely agree with you, it's a problem and it'll get worse until there's new regulation on it, but hey at least the cities will be quieter as we cough up rubber and dust.

Have you got the customisation service turned on in settings? I've never seen an ad in my notifications and until recently I was using a Samsung of similar age.

They mean outrun in terms of acceleration/speed in a straight line, not outlast

There's really not much in it, I can kinda see it's slightly less green as well as brighter like you say.

You can turn off the touch controls on Samsung Galaxy Bud Pros, maybe the other galaxy bud models too

And it's different to what's in the "to" field at the top that has been poorly scribbled.

How do you use a calendar app properly?

We also have national insurance and a tax free allowance, so the effective rate for someone at say £54k (about €62k) would be about 25% https://www.moneysavingexpert.com/tax-calculator/ I think I've worked that out right.

£125,140 a year you pay 45% income tax. But it's not quite that simple because you don't pay 45% on everything, just whatever is earned above that and the other thresholds https://www.gov.uk/income-tax-rates

On my buds if I turn on "block touches" and I touch them nothing happens, no jingle or notification. But yeah that does sound like a stupid feature

I guess with no fear of confrontation, or being rejected, you'd be a great sociopath/politician/CEO? Positive angle is you might be rich

They'll test it on the ground and flying slowly first before going fast to make sure it's safe enough.

I too watched veritasium today

That's a shame, I was looking into getting one but if the hardware issues are widespread maybe not worth it

Yeah it's 2 years of OS updates and apparently 4 years of security updates. That's what's making me reluctant to get one too.

He was, and was part of the reason remain failed because they thought it would be an easy win

Some phones can already do that, like wireless powershare (Samsung)

I think people don't like your suggestion/implication of Farage being the one pushing through reforms more than liking Tories.

That is well cool

They meant to say you interpreted the comment incorrectly, but that got autowronged to "commenting correctly".

Yeah it's not quite as simple as I put in my comment

Why are they so far away? There is logic to what you're saying, according to this website Americans drive on average twice as far as Italians/Germans etc. so if you scale by that America is still slightly higher but not as bad.
