In Brazil, communications do run entirely on WhatsApp, but payments are entirely on Pix.

Also I rememeber when there was a Meta-wide outage, and people switched to Telegram within the day, so the stranglehold they have might not be that strong.

Near the title sign, on the center of the camp, is where I found the last one I missed

Weird, they do here in Brazil (Hybrid Civics as well). Must be a cost or regulatory thing more than anything else.

Thank you! I both programmed and designed this--I miss doing this kind of work.

Beautiful work! I thought the bus was a fun goofy touch on its first appearance hahah

Thank you, glad you like it!

Oh, I made this! (almost a decade ago, huh)

You can select text this way too; once it’s in “trackpad mode”, tap the keyboard with another finger, and it will start text selection.

We still refer to the electricity bill as the “light bill” in Brazil.

Yes, that’s part of the intention of the law in fact, so that a company can’t advertise a lower price than the consumer would actually pay.

A friend of mine was (is?) completely unfazed by this sort of thing--right from the start, it was not some resistance built up over time.

She left the profession due to the long hours, low pay, and poor treatment.

Yes but the decision to redesign something might be towards people who haven't figured it out, which if they are a large enough fraction might be worth the tradeoff.

(there are other reasons too of course, sometimes not really good ones)

CGI is great actually, and most people have no idea when they are watching CGI stuff.

It's just that being able to do just about anything, down to implausible camera movements, requires restraint, and sometimes that's lacking.

(also low budget stuff might look bad, but that applies for every single thing)

That's already a thing, people asking why "CGI is getting worse"
