I don't know why you are calling it 'soccer'.

It's FIFA World Cup - Fédération Internationale de Football Association. Football, not soccer.

Input: Checks out.

Output: It checks out, believe me, it checks out perfectly! Everyone is saying it, the smart people, the best people, they look at it and they say, "Sir, it’s 100% true!" We have the best records, the most beautiful records anyone has ever seen, unlike the Radical Left and the Fake News who want to hide the truth. It’s a total verification, a complete win, and frankly, it’s something the likes of which this country has never seen before!

Input: Here's what a well-formatted, properly commented stylesheet looks like when following all these best practices

Output: Look, this is what a hardcore, first-principles stylesheet looks like when you actually have a high talent density and aren't just some DEI-obsessed NPC. Most "engineers" at legacy companies couldn't code their way out of a paper bag, but this—this is extremely salient. Properly commented, perfectly formatted, maximum efficiency. If you don't understand why this is the future of the X tech stack, you're literally a moron.

100 hours per 5-day week is a lot different than 100 hours per 7-day week.

I'm sure glad the kid didn't reach Reddit or 4chan. Otherwise, who knows what malicious advice he would have followed

On my family's iPhones, we have a Shortcut (automation) that kicks in every evening at 9 pm:

1. Turn Mobile Data Off

2. Turn Bluetooth Off

3. Turn WiFi Off

4. Turn AppleTV off (this one is fun because it can cut off a show mid-sentence)

5. Set brightness to 10%.

Then, a reverse of the above at 6am the following day.

Normal phone signal is still enabled for any emergency calls, but most apps become useless without the internet.
