It is from xkcd: https://xkcd.com/838/

Have you tried turning it off and on again?

Federation is still working if you are reading this comment.

The only admin has some personal stuff to handle right now and won't find the time to fix this mess before the end of the month.

Yeah, funny story:

I work for the government and once during an inspection they noticed that a light on the roof our building needed to be replaced.

What should be a 5 minute task took many months. Why? Safety rules state that only roofers are allowed to enter the roof, but only electricians are allowed to work on anything that has to do with electricity which includes changing a light bulb. So we had to wait a couple of months for one of the electricians to get certified as a person that can enter the roof.

Just to add another data point: just installed it on my phone running Android 12 and it works without any problems.

3234, which according to the game 7% of players reached.

I was on level 2k5 years ago when there were only 3k levels. Now there are 15k...

"Could of" instead of "Could've""Could have" is not a typical mistake people make that have English as their second language.

It is still possible to unlock an android phone with a fucked screen.

I had to do this once and managed to unlock the phone with a USB mouse. It took me a while to get the right pattern, but it is possible.

The fact that you think this needs a citation shows that you are a native speaker.

These might be no high quality sources, but it shows that it is something that non native speakers find weird:

Oh, and here is a PhD thesis where you can see in chapter 5.2 "Error processing cost" that this type of error is more disrupting for non native than for native speakers.

No, I don't think that the levels become harder. They also gift so many free boosters to the players that it is way easier than 10 years ago when I first played the game.

I also feel like that after failing a level too often, that the game is cheating for you so that you don't lose interest.

There was a time where I was addicted to this game. Achieved a 23 second run on intermediate once.

Just want to clarify: It is 9% of the income tax, not 9% of the income. Still too high, but not as absurd as some people may think after reading this incorrectly. I know some people who thought that it is 9% of the income although they were paying church tax for years...

I played them again when they were released for Nintendo Switch Online. There were a lot of people who were disappointed with the versions, but I had a lot of fun with them.

Maybe this recompiled version of Majora's Mask is something for you?

Age of Empires 2. I am playing it for 24 years already, so why not 50 more?

Are you talking about downloading files or about right clicking on images and pressing "Save Image As..."?

Why?

F droid is slow. But on IzzyOnDroid it is already available.

I have never heard of that. Is this something like Mockolate in that one Friends episode?
