Fabric softener is just plastic. It doesn’t really work, eventually your clothes will be coated in plastic rather than soft.

If you want to keep clothes soft, don’t dry them excessively in tumble dryers. The natural fibres need to retain some water.

It wasn’t the big, it was Microsoft. They forced the transition and refused to solve the issue you faced.

What if you speak to someone on android, then it’ll most likely go through googles servers. Most carriers are using googles servers to service rcs. When you texting iPhone users you’ll be using iMessage so most of the time your going through googles servers.

It would be inappropriate to not make it clear what messaging protocol is being used.

Most RCS chats will be going through googles servers. A user might want to know that.

Google doesn’t want you to find answers. They could improve this. They want repeated searches and more time spent on each Google page to increase eyes on their ads.

America tried to modernise many British means of methods and standards. They used a metric currency long before Britain. That’s why they have a cent (1/100) rather than pennies and bobs and truppence.

They got ride of many terms for multiples of measurements that made the imperial system more similar to metric. Americans use ounces, but they don’t use pounds.

America also defines their us customary units using metric. There’s no longer an inch. There is a meter and from that an inch is defined as 24 millimeters. This is largely due to British, Canadian and American components for fighting wars not fitting together despite all using the same inch.

Had America modernised a little later they probably would have converted to metric earlier than Britain.

They aren’t enemies of the state. Groups are classed as terrorists when they are using violence and terror to attack a nation state government, or its interests. The KKK don’t challenge the state in this way, they terrorise people and they support violence. But they don’t define themselves or act as enemies to the state.

I think they should be classed as hate groups and possibly terrorists. They do use terror to try to enact social change. The social change they want is more of a regression than a revolution, so it can be easy for conservatives to sympathise with them. Conservatives make up half the political power in most countries so it’s hard to classify these types of groups as terrorists. These groups advocate for conservation of social norms, just the norms they want to preserve are oppression and lack of civil rights.

They could attempt to quantify how gamed the result is and reduce its ranking. Also punishing domains with lower ranking the more they return SEO optimised pages. They could also increase the ranking of older pages.

This doesn’t really help google, it only really improves their search results. Google wants these hyper SEO optimised results with lots of advertising. Additionally, the less relevant the result is the more searches a person does. Each search is an additional set of ad impressions.

Google search is better than ever. Because it generates more advertising opportunities for google. Google isn’t in the business of returning good search results, they are in the business of displaying ads.

The bigger bullet means it’s easier to avoid.

You need port forwarding to connect on torrents. Your able to torrent because everyone you torrent from has port forwarding enabled. If you want to access more seeders, and more commonly leechers you need port forwarding. This is useful for people using private trackers that want to maintain a ratio.

Yes, I understood that. There are specific OS for Kodi like libreElec, that make it easy to have support for lots of codecs etc. I don’t know if any for specific to Jellyfin, but the Jellyfin App has a better UX than Kodi.

Kodi is a great Linux client. But that’s not what OP wants, the jellyfin app is a nicer UX experience.

There are plenty of other options in the market, including ones with port forwarding. It’s a very saturated market.

There wasn’t much loss launching it after Christmas. People weren’t buying WiiUs. The 2ds was designed to use all the extra wiiU controller screens they had.

Adults buying it for themselves have gotten it already. Purchases for children will be around Christmas. Any big announcements or trailers will catch the attention of parents and family that don’t follow rumours.

Enthusiast will buy early, but they don’t make up long term console sales and non release game sales.

That’s what mullvlad say. It’s not necessarily the reason why they don’t offer port forwarding.

It was always possible for them to continue allowing port forwarding. They could use separate servers for those that want port forwarding, stopping any impact port forwarding had on those customers.

Switch 2 will be announced in July/August then released in September. (This is speculation).

It needs to come out before Christmas, else Nintendo sales will suffer. They would have already planned for this. If they don’t they will announce it October/November quietly and release it in Spring.

I think they will increase the frequency of upgrades to their handheld/hybrid consoles. As they will see completion from steam deck and similar systems. Especially if they don’t have significant innovation that isn’t easily replicated. The switch 2 might not allow you to transfer all your games over, but subsequent switches are likely to be oled/light/pro/XL type of upgrades.

They won’t announce a console prior to Christmas, that won’t be released for Christmas. It will hurt their sales. People won’t buy switch oled and games if they think a new console will replace it soon.

I wouldn’t be surprised if all the games are either to far along(/not popular enough) to bother building for the new switch. Or they will get simultaneous release on both switch and switch 2 (like breath of the wild).

That won’t sink Nintendo. It will only increase their revenue.

People will rebuy the old game again. Some people will refuse to buy the old game. But no sale would be lost. In fact people will be less likely to sell their old consoles, reducing the supply of consoles which will increase demand on the new console.

People always make the assumption that a business will lose by making customers pay for things. It rarely is the case. Netflix banned account sharing, Reddit and Lemmy were full of people claiming this will hurt netflix. Not realising netflix only punished those that don’t give them more money. The people that suffered that ban weren’t buying netflix. The ban increased netflix profit, they also gained more paying customers.
