To be fair, it could have fully driven itself into the train: "fully self driving" <> "fully safe driving" /s

Same here, I was a big fan of Nova until I discovered Niagara about a year ago. It's a totally different concept from the icon based launchers. I love the minimalist approach to widgets and the self optimizing app list. Tying it in with sesame has led me that product as well and I'm finding the whole solution to be really nice

Have you heard of the Uighurs or Tibet?

Well they have to be really white though, not like those lazy Spaniards, Italians or Greeks. Should probably leave the Catholics out of it, too, and maybe the Irish for that matter. Do Portuguese count? 🤔 /s

I mean just because you like taking a bath or swimming doesn't mean you're going to enjoy standing in the rain too

Umm that's donuts if they're from Dunkin' 😜

US here, before COVID I would tip delivery drivers but not if I was picking it up. Now I tip 10-15% for takeout and 20%-25% for table service. I've also come to understand that checking your order, packing the bag, and including condiments or extras all take time and I've decided I'm ok tipping for that if it helps them earn a more decent living.

Yeah, you don't want toddlers learning gun safety the hard way

When you're talking about relative change, one degree F is 5/9 of a degree c, so if London cools by 18F that would be 10c.
