Google consistently routes people to make a right turn across an unsignalised dual carriageway near me. (Australia, we drive on the left).

This right turn is so prone to crashes that every single weekday morning and afternoon there will be multiple tow trucks just waiting for a crash.

To avoid this intersection and turn right on to the dual carriageway at a location with traffic lights is only a matter of driving less than 1km in either direction on a parallel side street. Yet Google tells people to go past the traffic lights to make this turn. Idiocy.

The recruiters also like to remove your name and contact details so that the companies they are selling you to can't bypass the recruiter.

Be very surprised if labor changes direction before the election.

As much as I would like to see negative gearing limited to new builds only and capital gains tax discounts removed entirely.

But will she enable the option to create bookmarks from word headings? Surely no one ready for that.

identical environment.

if I tap out words, then they will appear as i hit each letter. if i use swipe, then i get no preview of the word, the word just appears after i lift off and touch another key.

very annoying, cant live without gesture/swipe typing.

Mercs and BMW only. I wonder what the motivation was. Audi fan? Environmental protest? Wealth inequality protest?

Also a gla180 is hardly a luxury car. Gutless little JUHB more like.

I too have mild astigmatism. I used glasses for about 4 years before trying contact lenses. Have been using contacts for 10 years now and i much prefer them.

Ironically it was when the stock android upgrade on my pixel 7 completely bricked my phone (due to the multiple user profiles bug) that I decided to jump in to Graphene head first.

Compared to my experience running random ROMs on Samsungs back in the era of galaxy note 1 to 4, Graphene installer was so easy!
