I was 99% sure Finland for the first one though, but somewhat makes sense

I think it's more that a lot of people only think of badly done makeup and see well done makeup as natural beauty, which it enhances rather than contrasting with

Of course someone with clown-face-adjacent levels of makeup is going to look worse, but if done to make the skin look natural but smoother, eyes look natural but bigger and features natural but better defined then yes, I think very few people will find that less attractive

the data is clearly fucked given the whole UK mess, and given it's all either small countries, authoritarian hellholes or both which have their country flag I'm inclined to believe it's a "no data" placeholder

The reason networks are all shutting down 3G is because very few people use it anymore, which means the 3G bandwidth is split between 10s of people whereas the 4G is split between 10s of thousands, as is 5G

250Mb/s among 10 people is 25Mb/s for each person, 10Gb/s among 10,000 people is 1Mb/s for each person (made up numbers and it's a bit more complex than this, but it demonstrates the point), so even though the 5G & 4G are capable of transmitting more data, per person they're not.

If you repurpose the 3G tower as 4G or 5G you can cut that 10,000 in half, which annoyingly gets rid of the hack to use 3G when it's being slow, but does improve the speed for most people

He's not wrong in that the foreigner wants cookies from any source, but he's not being truthful in that he's misrepresenting the situation by implying the only cookie that can be given away is the worker's

I mean once you get beyond bash-like scripts python is esoteric as fuck, adding oop to what is essentially a shell is a terrible idea

That said, there's plenty of languages with good syntax that is still good when you get into more complex stuff (modern C#, scala, kotlin and more)

I'm not sure, if you're racing me in a 100m sprint and you do it in 15 seconds, that's pretty useless information depending on whether I'm at the 90m mark or beyond the finish at that point, so it's primarily a race against the speed I travelled at

the appeal was declined instantaneously

I hate this so much and it was the reason I left Facebook after receiving a "warning" for the first time and getting the appeal denied despite the comment being completely benign (something like "why does Brazil fucking hate Czechs so much?" under a map of Brazil's approval of each country in Europe, where their approval of Czechia was remarkably low - I appreciate it probably saw "fucking hate Czechs" and flagged it, but any remotely human reviewer should have seen the context and immediately understood, especially when running a more in depth review as part of the appeal)

All the major tech companies seem to do this and I don't know why they even bother... If you want to give the illusion you're considering the appeal, leave it at least an hour or so, but if you're auto-declining them then just don't give people the option to appeal in the first place as you'll just make them mad

You can, but as a part of doing what they want serverside they can ask for some kind of proof you don't have an adblocker on the server-side, you can reverse engineer that and spoof the checks and it becomes an arms race just like we have now... You're effectively just saying the status quo is a-ok with you

Both contribute to the combustion, but it's the metal that's fuelling it while water plays the role that air/oxygen usually would. I think codyslab did a video where he had a flame fed by air in an atmosphere of methane which demonstrates the concept that actually you need both fuel and oxidiser for the flame, and one "burns" in an "inert" atmosphere of the other

Trains are generally at their fullest when cars are at their emptiest, during commuter hours. Tube trains are near empty (maybe 10-15% of capacity) for most of the day and night, whereas those who do drive at those times are likely groups of workmen or otherwise groups of people going to the same place
