I think this is mostly a US thing. Why use yearly salary? You’re not paid once a year, are you? Most likely once a month. Referencing monthly salary makes much more sense....
maybe tax related since taxes are based on annual income. if you are not hourly/salaried and you are self employed/freelance/contract your income will vary from month to month. annually seems like it can be more accurate across all those groups
Metro has unlimited for $25 no hard throttle, but lower priority after 35gb and restricted tethering. the TMobile prepaid unlimited plans get priority data and if you top up with target there’s no tax and sometimes sales.
Hi! I’ve installed Stremio on the ISP-provided AndroidTV “decoder” and it allows my family to watch shows while still having access to live TV. However, I am not aware of any option to watch live sports (“Ligue 1” in France) with as good an interface as Stremio, so my father has to watch it on his computer by finding a...
I really hate how results open in a new tab, if you change the option it’ll get reset eventually since it’s saved to a cookie instead of your account. The rewards system is cool though, I’ve gotten like 500k+ points lifetime

I know we aren’t allowed to use Chrome. We can’t use Brave. But how does the Lemmy community feel about the Vivaldi Browser? or is it still not Firefox…
It’s chromium but has a special place in my heart because it’s made by the og Opera people, when Opera used its own engine. I still use Firefox but if I ever switched it would probably be to Vivaldi.
I was team A, but after thinking all morning I’m team B
Imagine the exit portal is on the back of the trolley, it doesn’t even have to be a portal, even just imagine it’s an open hole in the front and back of the trolley. As it approaches you jump up, enter the front and exit the back without landing, you then land where you started. See how in this case your momentum doesn’t change because both portals are moving at the same speed. If the exit portal isn’t moving, you’ll gain that momentum.
I found this, I’m wanting to get a pixel tablet in about a week or so. Title just got me wondering a bit, though it’s probably just a little bit sensationalized
I have been curious of this one since it’s a feature that mastodon has, and while I understand with FOSS software anyone can disable that, but usually people don’t and if I knew they were doing that I would defederate them.
They are federated, but it’s not reliable. Lot of room for improvement. I have comments where the deletion never federated so they’re basically on other servers forever.
