Not for long.

These were just the numbers I grabbed of Wikipedia on the fly.

I take it modern phones are thickest at the camera? Do you hold your phone there?

iPhone Air: 5.64mm. First iPhone: 11.6mm,.

Because the IP holders don’t want to give out licenses in perpetuity. They want to renegotiate and increase the price.

You sound like my dad who’s upset when the gas prices changed between driving into town and out of town. “What? 6ct in 10 minutes?”

It has to change sometime. You just happened to notice it.

So have phones become thicker again?

One of my gripes with smart phones: They’re so thin that they’re unergonomic to hold, which makes them prone to slip out of my hand. So I need a protective cover, which makes them thicc again.

Ah! You’re moving goalposts! The meme is about choosing an OS at boot time, not up, down, up again.

You’re missing the point of the meme. It definitely is about accidentally booting Windows, rebooting and then booting Linux.

Is it Windows 98?

Jokes aside: You have to count the time from starting to boot Windows to restarting it, letting the computer do its pre-boot whatver-it-does-es, to back to grub.

And I find a minute a long wait.

Yeah, If I don’t catch the train, I also just uninstall the rails and hope for the best.

No, I needed the advanced boot options and fat-fingered.

I can’t understand how this is still a thing. Everybody, and I mean literally everybody, even subsaharan illiterates have had to fill out a form where the lines are 3mm apart and 8mm wide. And still, when it’s time to design a form themselves, they think putting down a few underscores in font size 3 1/4 is enough.

AAAAAHHH!!!

What would be a reason to exclude Australia? It’s huge, surrounded by ocean and has unique wildlife.

You could discount Antarctica because without all the ice it’s just an archipelago.

20?!

See

I would have hoped it had something to do with tectonic plates

here.

Eurasia is also an English word.

Africa being an ocean is supported by there being saltwater between it and Asia. The panama canal(s) connect freshwater lakes to bridge the gap between the Pacific and the Atlantic.

Everyone learns different definitions based on their education system’s world view, leading to a number of continents somewhere between 3 and 20. It turns out that nature doesn’t care for humans’ desire to put everything into neat, well-defined little boxes.

I said what I said and I meant it. Use your mod privileges if you deem this inappropriate for this community.

I do appreciate the warning shot, though.
