I think the comment is about the last panel being a shocked pikachu type face.

The companies are not shocked that you no longer visit their page, that's their intention. "Generate revenue for us or leave"

P.S. genuine lol at hasta not luego, shouldn't it also be "aurevoir pas" or "aurevoir never" since that also essentially means see you again.

I think it's a combination of:

The style of the curb and pavement.

The warning signs on the fence.

The telegraph pole.

It's an English speaking place

The sky is grey

D+ dropped support for my tablet since the Android version is too old, but I just ran Firefox in desktop mode and that worked. I don't know whether it made a difference that it's a tablet vs phone though

EU Withdrawal Act effectively retained all applicable EU law as UK law so anything would have to be specifically rescinded after that.

I don't think anything's changed wrt gdpr

Still got my phone from 2020, I really like the phone but the software is creaking, even the custom ROM I moved to is now discontinued and no Lineage available.

I looked at porting something myself but it is ... not trivial to say the least.

Just feels frustrating that the phone still works fine but is gradually losing functionality and I can't update it. Also ngl I really miss having contactless payments. I've tried all the fixes I can find online with no success.

It's a contrived example because you wouldn't ask "what time is it there?" in a world where everywhere uses the same timezone

I called this out after my first trip to the US, and then I came back to the UK just in time for the coronation weekend. Hahaha we definitely outdid them a bit in terms of flags which shut me right up. Especially working for an American employer for some reason, we went all out with a work do in the UK, union flags galore.

The difference is all our flags went away again straight after the coronation.

Companies really don't put much effort into making these readable or accessible.

Many websites I've used it's even a broken link, there's nothing to read but I'm expected to agree anyway.

The terms are usually extremely long and repetitive, they're not designed to be actually read by people.

In Windows 95, wordpad was still write.exe, is it possible they just renamed it?
