Ever tried turning the handle up?

I always thought I'd be able to see more hand, not less.

Yes. You will need trillions of dollars and operate outside of any country so you're not subject to pesky ethics and humanitarian laws. Good luck, I hope I never see you.

I won't discount that possibility, but I think they get sold on a miraculous idea and simply don't understand the reasons why it's not a good idea. The more zealous one simply don't want to believe it's not the perfect solution.

Unbridled enthusiasm can be cute to a point, but those hydrogen folks are way beyond that. Yikes.

Get an insulated water tank, dump all the energy in there for free hot water.

I'll concede "North America", as "zee" has infected Canada too. Not sure about Mexico.

Mazda Easy Sex.

I'd say "they knew", but I'd they did they wouldn't have.

Want my mother's maiden name and my favourite pet's name too?

Reputation in industry. If they're viewed as crap, your degree could actually hurt you in the job market.

First year residence guarantee. Unless you're commuting from home, see who guarantees first year residence. Depending on the city, housing could be hard to come by.

Related: distance between housing and your lecture halls. If there's multiple campuses, make sure your housing is near the one you'll be at.

Co-op. If applicable, you want this.

I'm with you, but that's just not going to be the case, sadly. Cities would need to be entirely restructured, and that's going to inconvenience major real estate holders, which means it's going to be a fight every step of the way.

Just got the update overnight and now i have a text overlaid on my feed. Is there a way to clear the message or otherwise get it to disappear?

 

I've had this happen a few times now when looking at images, I tap an image to open it, turn my devise to landscape mode, but instead of seeing the image my feed refreshes. Known bug, or has anyone else found this too?

 

Hey, I've experienced this a few times now. I've clicked an image to view it, but to get a better view I've switched to landscape mode. When this happens, instead of seeing the image still, my feed refreshes. Anyone else getting this? Known bug maybe? Thanks!

 

I'm still playing around getting my bearings here, trying to explore this still-growing federation. I've tried browsing by "New" on both mobile and desktop a couple of times, but on desktop it's almost unsuable. Any time there's a new post, the INSTANT it goes up my feed updates, and scrolls down. Sometimes it's one post, sometimes a dozen.

To me (opinion here), sorting by "new" should sort of be a timestampped thing: I want "new as of right now but nothing more". If I refresh, sure update me to the latest. But a list that's live updating as things happen? That's... not useful to me.

Am I missing something, or does anyone else feel similarly?
