Helps remembering pins

You're out of luck if you need the letters though, because phones and PIN keypads don't have the same letters on the same numbers.

You mean, beep when they're finished?

Many microwaves have a semi-hidden feature to mute all sounds. Usually involves long-pressing one of the number buttons.

I also don't understand it in the slightest.

Poiluevre? Wow I didn't know that.

I meant getting elected. As for old people voting, you have a point, but if old people's views don't matter at all, then you can easily imagine a world where policy doesn't care about them, which might be dangerous.

I just wish we had fewer old people. It sounds like I'm arguing for a purge... But I just mean I wish our birth rates were stable instead of going all boom-and-bust.

The world would be so much better off if you just couldn't be elected after a certain age.

Could a similar meme be made between distributions?

I mean, sure, I learned with Adobe products, but I also think the UX in Photoshop is pretty annoying.

I'm not sure it's that easy to determine which one is objectively the better app. There are too many subjective factors.

Been a while since I've tried to use it for anything serious myself but recently I tried to just crop an SVG that had random extra empty space in its canvas and it was an adventure. I think I gave up after 20 minutes and gave it back to the designer who has an Illustrator license

Looking forward to giving it a try. If it's more user friendly than Inkscape and less costly than Illustrator, I'm in.

Well i mean we're talking houses here, not record-breaking high-rise buildings.

As for issues with structural wood... Tbh they're pretty rare. Probably more common than, say, the steel in your walls rusting or something, but still, not to a worrisome degree.

The main one is insects. Water (leading to mould) is also a thing but water infiltrations are terrible news no matter the material so...
