Linux has its own weird implicit copy paste on the mouse - pressing the wheel pastes the last thing you selected.

It depends though - if you're copy pasting between programs, you're probably using your mouse already, so it's good that the buttons are there. But if you're writing or editing text, you probably have your hands on the keyboard, so you need the shortcut there as well.

My kids use my account.

So mine is a quarter space, a quarter MTG, and half Minecraft.

It is quite different. I don't speak either, but when watching Servant of the People, I could pick up a lot of words in Russian, as they were similar to Slovenian. When they started speaking Ukrainian, I couldn't understand anything. Even the show makes a plot point of this, when they invite the wrong Korea because the words for north and south are different.

More vulnerable, probably yes. Phones are very locked down and secured (unless you root or install custom firmware).

But, they are still worse for privacy due to how they're used. The phone (and thus Google and Apple and Facebook and others) has access to your location all the time - your computer doesn't. The computer is only vulnerable when on - the phone is always on.

The threats are different and from different sources. Random hackers mining shitcoins on your computer, big companies knowing what you're doing when you carry your phone.

This is about light rail though, which is usually built in cities (or, at least between a city and its suburbs). So I wonder how much of the cost (for both rail and road) is for land rights.

Ink for the ink god, drivers for the driver throne.

That would be in every thread, from the most pro-communism to the most anti-communism threads.

No we're not, you're just in the blue zone. Us greens are quite happy.

It's not the same care though. Wireless earbuds come with a box. For regular ones, I'd have to make a suitable box, and also carefully roll the cables every time.

The battery will fail to hold charge and they will become useless. Not the truth for wired headphones.

I don't know how you use your headphones, but in my case I switched to wireless because every single pair of wired headphones I had would break. Usually the cable, earbuds because they were in my pocket, and the overhead ones I'd drive over with my office chair.

Switched to wireless a couple years ago, no issues since then.

NY real estate, which is struggling

Sorry, what did I miss? Isn't NY real estate the place where a 200sqft apartment costs millions of dollars?

That's still my favorite EU legislation. The price that is displayed must be equal (or higher, discounts are still allowed) to the price that you pay. Taxes, tips, fees, everything must be included in the price.
