My screen gets dimm enough that it's almost impossible to see outside with the slider at the left.

The solution is extremely easy though. Put an option in the settings so pressing volume up/down while the screen is locked changes the brightness instead of the volume.

So they should conquer the entirety of Asia in one turn, to get an extra 7 units per turn in order to afford their war with Europe?

That's because it's not the same feminist movement as it was when millennials were gen z's age.

The last questions are what feminism used to be (what millennials liked). Nowadays, however, feminism is plagued by not-feminist people, that instead of wanting equality want women superiority. That's the feminism gen z knows about, and the men don't like it. That's also the reason they answer "no" to "are you a feminist?" But they support actual feminist policies. The definition of feminism has changed.

EDIT: just for reference: my county (Spain) recently put porn under a passport with limited uses per month. Why did they do that? They claim feminism. Does that sound like feminism to you?

I was totally ready for "green energy is good graphics and oil is good mechanics". But then the comment ended. I'm so lost

It not being fully 3D doesn't mean that it's of lower quality.

For example when consoles got powerful enough to draw 3D backgrounds you could see a significant decline in background quality, since you can have a higher quality 2D background for a fraction of the resources.

Your argument only holds up if the cop isn't also tried for that murder. I'm not even an American citizen so I don't know if that's the case.

Doesn't matter if the cop would be tried though, as cops are already immune to the law in america. They don't need to convict other people for that. I don't think at all that the purpose of that law is to protect cops.

I poo almost daily at work. It's almost impossible to hold it in for 8:30 continuous hours.

If someone tells me off for it, they will find out how much my productivity drops when I have to focus on holding the shit instead of doing my work.

Poo in work. Not only is it a nice break, but it also is more productive than not pooing. Win-win for everyone.

Except 12. That's a single dozen.

In Spain we used to have the same system. However it's been a while since I've seen it, most carts still have the euro slot, but they are not chained, so you don't need to insert a coin.

Shouldn't being a convicted felon affect one's candidacy?

Should the US government also pay candidates to have aesthetic surgeries? Being ugly might affect their candidacy!

Iirc Ubuntu names their home files "Downloads", "Documents", and so on. Same with windows (there are a lot of uppercase letters in windows files). I've had issues with Cargo.toml before. And not just cargo, many config files use case to signal priority (so if both Makefile and makefile exist, Makefile will be used (or other way around)). Downloaded files are a gamble. Files created by user input (so for example if I wanted my user to be "Calcopiritus", my home would be "/home/Calcopiritus".

Uppercase letters might not be common in filenames, but they are not nonexistent.
