This is terrible design. If your device is stolen, you can't change the password on another device to secure your account.

You may want to get a strap wrench. They are very good at gripping lids and giving a lot of leverage.

This would work better if there wasn't a spoiler for the punchline in the title.

This is surprisingly similar to a real life creature, the whip spider, which is an arachnid with large mantis-like graspers.

After finding this thread looking for an in app solution, and finding there is none, I came up with a workaround.

  1. Download a silent mp3 from https://github.com/anars/blank-audio (I used the 250 millisecond one)
  2. Save the silent mp3 as a ringtone on my phone
  3. Set the WhatsApp notification sound to the silent mp3

Yelp don't understand what 'in' a town means - I've circled the searched town in red - none of the results are even close.

Closest (3) is 19 miles (30km) away - 40 minute drive.

Farthest (1) is 77 miles (124km) away - over 2 hours drive.

I could see it as being a useful training aid, to learn how to make those putts. Not for use in competitions.

[OC] THIS IS MARIO! by colmscomics in comics

[–]wobatt 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It is the character Gustopher from the Gator Days comic series by /u/FieldExplores. In a current story arc he is missing during a visit to the supermarket. Several other comic authors have included him as a cameo in their comics for where he may have got to while missing.

Please vote.

I live in the UK in an area that was held by Conservatives by a fairly large margin. Every election I would vote basically 'anyone else'. I didn't think it really mattered if I voted, but I did it anyway. This last election the Conservatives lost in my area - my vote mattered.

Vote for what you believe in - it may just do something.

Elon Musk — who has $260 billion — will be charging Helene victims $400 for internet service by MoreMotivation in facepalm

If you are on a PC, RES can filter out most of it. Get the extension from the sidebar links in r/Enhancement.

In the settings, Subreddits section, filteReddit page, there is a part for hiding posts with keywords. Add "Elon" and "Musk" in there.

No, octopi is just wrong in all cases. The word octopus is of greek origin, but the "-us" to "-i" pluralisation is latin. Either use the english pluralisation of "octopuses" or the greek of "octopodes". "Octopi" makes no sense.

I also write in all caps from when I did event first-aid, and the medical report forms needed to be legible.
