Yep, the government would say no to that name.

I am happy that here in Finland you can’t name your child whatever you want.

Have it form connections to all the other browsers using the extension and they all send a click.

But foreign politics less so. New government in Kenya? Not a big deal. Convicted felon and rapist shitting on the world? Annoying, but there are more important local matters.

Guess which government watchdog is going to be targeted for funding cuts next…

Apparently there was a study done and your happiness levels out. Like if you got a big pay bump you’d be happier for a while but then back to baseline.

That’s where the phrase “out of whack” came from. You just needed to give it a whack.

I had a similar thing on an old crt monitor. The screen would start to flicker badly after a while, and 8 year old me found if you banged the side, just right, it would keep working for a couple of hours.
