Well then, we should active plan D and protest Chrome, get them taken down, and force everyone to use Firefox?

Worked on my Galaxy S21+ on Firefox

I never verbalized ( well… typed into words online like)

But it’s a shame your username isn’t ā€œIce Bearā€

I automatically read all of your comments in Ice bears voice

In all honesty, I’m surprised that @NoUsersLefft doesn’t have a robot or AI themed avatar to match his username.

That’s interesting. now that you pointed it out it does makes sense…

But I’ve always read that username as from my old g-mails ā€œNoUsernamesAvailableā€ and ā€œN.Username.Attemptsā€, which steemed from sheer frustration after spending over an hour attempting to create an account but every single username I tried had been taken already or would not be accepted by the system.

This. This was the origin lol. I had gone through every username I typically use when creating my Playstation account, and then so was the correct spelling NoUsersLeft so I added the f and then boom that’s just been my username on many things since :smile:

Just got X-rays of my knee. If only I had messed up my hands instead XD
The whole time I wanted to try and sneak my hand down by my knee like Micheal with his foot in the MRI machine haha

Thought the non Americans might want to see this.

I’ve heard a number of times where people visiting the U.S.A. were befuddled by the way prices on store shelves never include the tax. This is how the local grocery store works.

So…
If you buy 18.00 dollars worth of groceries, then the cost is 18.00+10% = 19.80 dollars, plus 10% tax = 21.78 dollars.

Now I just kind of mentally factor that in when I’m shopping, but it’s amazing how many people think they’re getting a great deal. First, the whole ā€œCostā€ thing could include all sorts of overhead too. Second 10% profit in a business is good money. Most food based businesses are doing great around 3%.

Great info, thanks.
And then you throw in tipping for when there are services rendered…

Crazy idea here.

Show the ACTUAL price you pay as a customer.
Then break down the Tax on the receipt.
Unless you are claiming the Tax back nobody gives a fuck.

Then, stop the profiteering, Don’t make your workers rely on Tips just to get by. Just pay them a fair wage, THEN reward ACTUAL good service rather than it being expected for any service.

I hate it when things are put through the complicator for no good reason.

That’s how it’s being done in Europe. The price displayed in the shelves is the price you pay at the register.

And most of the other countries I have traveled to.

Then there are countries that still barter.
A suggested price, (if there even is one) to start negotiations
The price you pay (you are happy with)
The price they sell (they are happy with)

Those who have been asking about when the xM1 would be back in stock: just noticed that it available now.

Figured I’d mention it since I know there were at least a couple of folks who were asking. @ZeroOne @gyyyq
