People on speakerphones for no reason, holding the phone horizontally and yelling at [it].
This. I do not understand this behavior. Especially when they move their horizontal phone between their mouth and ear, so they can hear the call better.
Why don't people use their phone as it was originally designed? You know, with putting the better speaker right up to their ear? Are people really that stupid?

Which search engine do you use? If it's one I haven't tried then I'll give it a go.
I bit the bullet and went with Kagi. Yes, I'm actually paying for search. I tried it out during a testing period and honestly, the results are great. I like the per-site options, the "lenses" that let you focus search, retrieval speed, and most of all, the results don't seem to suck.

Just be remembered for Facebook and amihotornot, as opposed to a dystopic VR system with Nintendo 64 graphics, and retire with your reputation as intact as it will ever be.

Indeed, I also got both these email, which make the overall message rather confusing. They also sent a third email (prior to all this) about domain name registration as I also did use dyn (prior to Oracle's involvement) to purchase a domain name and needless to say Oracle now inherited that, so that email only informed domain registration would be usable on their platform instead.

The Russian government requires all software companies there to include whatever code they give them. You should never run closed-source software on your machine if a Russian company was involved.
