Just another reason to buy music from the artists own website, if they have one.
It'll likely be seen as "lost revenue" and therefore piracy by the holders, as I don't imagine that they include small individual sites in their surveys, but the artist will get more money in the end and that's what matters.
Perhaps (hopefully) i just encountered some folks who just assumed something, and that it's not actually becoming a trend.
w/ appears to have origin in the food industry some 70 years ago (according to this question).
To me it makes sense, as I first encountered it in video games where abbreviations, acronyms, and text-saving-slang are commonplace. Furthermore, while abbreviations usually have multiple letters (in written text, not physical or mathematical equations), single letter abbreviations can quickly become confusing, so I belive that this is the reason for putting a slash behind it, or possibly a bar above it.
RANT:
While I know that language changes all the time, I find it very unfortunate that this little fellow o/ and possibly his slightly more formal friend o7 have become synonymous with "nazi salute". First off, it's the wrong arm! And second off, what do you have against "man waving" and "man saluting"?
It must be very confusing for someone who uses this newer definition of o/ to visit the Elite:Dangerous forums.
EDIT: I'm very happy that I apparently am the only one who has met people who don't know the real meaning of o/ and o7. I feared that this was a widespread problem, but luckily it appears that I simply am a worrywart.
But it should be.
Better technology and more storage should never excuse a lack of optimization.
I'm not up to speed on the optimization levels of mobile Web browsers, but these days you rarely see properly optimized consumer software. Games and websites tend to be the worst offenders, and many mobile apps appear 10x the size you would expect them to be.
Don't swim in the water, I've heard you get severe and abrupt lead poisoning when trying.
I guess that does make sense, and definitely not as bad as I had misunderstood it to be.
It feels a little weird, and I'm not sure if T+29:00 or equivalents are allowed in ISO 8601, but I have seen computer programs that represent time differences in similar ways.
Thank you for the clarification!
In Denmark we say "2 o'clock" or just "14", sometimes also "14 o'clock". No one says fourteen hundred, except perhaps for a few military wannabes.
If it's quarter past 2, we'd usually say "14-15". Half past 2 would be "14-30", you get the idea.
If we mean to say "from 2 o'clock to 3 o'clock", we'll say "14 to 15", which I imagine can be confusing for the uninitiated, as the only difference from "quarter past 2" would be a "to".
For those downvoting me, what do you say? I imagine it must be other Danes or neighboring countries, as one surely wouldn't downvote a culturally dependant statement if not from said culture.
Like the bastardization of the 24h clock by the television companies, doesn't Amarican military time also allow for relative time instead of absolute? Like writing 5:00 on the second day of a time critical mission as 2900?
I'm pretty sure I heard this somewhere, though I have yet to verify this claim.
Thank you for the link.
Good thing that the council (and likely the parliament too) want none of the Commissions bullshit.
This isn't the first time that the Commission proposes controversial laws that most likely will be shot down, and the Commission is already known for attempting to sway the minds of the masses using scare campaigns, but as far as I know, it's the first time they have used such backhanded methods.
The Commission should face repercussions for such repeated and increasingly disgusting behavior.
You tell us.
Using PWA you'll retain all the features and nice-to-haves of the app, while also preventing it from doing any weird magic to your files in the background. Sharing files from your main profile to your private profile is also as easy as opening the file in your main profiles file browser and clicking "share".

I'm clearly too tired to make any sense. Please have a nice evening.
As a side note, if you for some reason turn off the central heating entirely and just use space heaters, then the failsafe will do no good.
Most central heating solutions waste some energy when idling, so one might be tempted to turn them off. Please be careful when doing this.
