In the early days Meta (Facebook back then) used to pay bounties by physically mailing pre-paid debit cards, so you are not far off with the idea of envelopes full of cash.

Excluding SE is to make sure people do not spam customer support and launch annoying phishing campaigns. None of that is applicable for local software running on your own computer.

Quick googling gave that Stockholm is deeper on average, although the deepest point of London metro is currently deeper than Stockholm. No drastical differences that should affect this question I think.
(This will change when they are done with Sofia station, a new station in Stockholm that they are building 100 m below the surface.)

Which should be fine for all the things the comment mentions though (remotes, keyboards, etc).

iOS has a few options between 30 seconds and five minutes and then one at never.

The numbers differ a bit in different sources, but seems to be around 60% for Sweden. https://gs.statcounter.com/os-market-share/mobile/sweden Based on that upper middle class being a bit more common seems likely.
Regardless, the original point stands regardless of it being 50% or 80%.

Edit, forget what I said. I missed the keyword 'paid'.
Threads earlier this year apparently got 70 million user signed up the first 48h. I would assume this leads to at least >1m Android users?
First example I came to think about, might be much better examples out there. Regardless, something with "more than 100,000 people" in 48h is probably not the fastest growing Android app.

What are you missing? If only a few tasks you could just VNC to a “desktop OS” for these tasks. I would assume most things that requires such OS requires an internet connection anyway.
I still primary use a laptop, but that is because I like the form of it. So I have no actual experience trying to survive with only iOS.

I think I agree with your overall point, but it is mentioned on the site where to find the RSS feed.

Erasmus is a specific program that does exchanges within the EU. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Erasmus_Programme
In Sweden, we only use that word to talk about exchange studies within that program. If someone mentions Erasmus, I would never, before reading your comment, even consider they might mean going to the USA.
Not to disqualify your experience, it might very well be used like that in your country or language. I just thought it was a bit interesting.

Brainstorming all kind of subjects studied in uni. It gets me a lot of ideas to look up elsewhere, as I cannot take its suggestions as facts directly.
Also use it similar to Grammarly.
For $20 I would sign up without hesitation if it means it will not go down as often.

> Your users would be breaking those terms, not you, as they do it on their own machine. As the parent said, just remove all reference to LinkedIn and you can move on.
There is some kind of cloud stuff here though.

Does not work from US. Twitter shows lots of people elsewhere having problems. Meta status page says everything is working though, https://metastatus.com/
Edit, ops did intended to make a submission with the Twitter search. Seems like I accidentally pasted the wrong link.
