In my language chocolate is “coklat”, which is also the word for the color brown. So you’re not wrong

So you want apple to stop its AppStore in Russia but android phones and alternative stores should still be operational there?

I started a new job at a nice-ish office, next to a pretty fancy mall. On my 3rd day, my colleagues invited me to lunch at the food court of the mall. A couple hours later, I started getting nauseous and sweaty. Had to rush to the bathroom a couple times, which looking back I was lucky it was coming out of one end instead of two. After the 2nd time, I thought I’d chance it and rush home rather than having to go through another ~2 hours of this at the office. Luckily I lived close to the office back then so I was able to make it home. But in my rush I forgot to tell my manager, just told a coworker sitting near my desk I wasn’t feeling well and left. I emailed my manager that night, telling him that I also wouldn’t be able to make it in the next day. So my very first week at this job, I was only there for 2.5 days before getting sick for 1.5 days. Not the best first impression.

I didn’t know until much later, but my manager told me that he thought I hated the job and was about to quit after a couple days.

Speedcubing. There are good cubes for < $10 now and beginner’s method is easy to learn. There are many resources online and can be learned within minutes. Then you start improving and getting faster quickly.

In my case I then went to a local competition and just amazed at how quick and how young these kids are.

I haven’t used Spotify in years but back then I was getting annoyed at their recommendations/generated playlists. Instead of new music I liked they just create 4 playlists of music I already have in my own playlists or music I don’t like at all and not even similar to music I listen to. I tried Apple Music for free because of a device purchase and their generated playlists actually gave me new music that I liked. Haven’t looked back since

Buffy. I was the right age (or maybe a bit too young) when it aired and it was the first female-led show that I fell in love with.

They’re just stopping development of the Pro to focus on the cheaper model so not necessarily abandoned
