Kangaroos are the clear winner in my experience, but we've also got possums and various parrots (e.g. sulphur crested cockatoos). Wombats too but they're less common to see.

Fossil didn't particularly impress me with their smartwatches, so a sales decrease doesn't surprise me. I had a Skagen Falster 2 (a Fossil by another name) for a bit and it was annoyingly slow with not enough battery to leave the screen on, and eventually did the Fossil thing of the time where the back falls off the watch. I replaced that with a Fossil hybrid HR as I was chasing something more like the Pebble Time Round I liked before its battery lost usable capacity. I liked the concept and battery life of the hybrid but it had a horribly slow interface (galling to me since Pebble had shown you could do much better with e-ink), the e-ink screen ended up fading, it kept getting moisture inside the face, and as a last straw Fossil decided to be a dick and remove the left handed button mode.

And they all perfectly understand why those strict controls are necessary.

Coming from a country where no ID is required but everything still goes smoothly, I'm not sure strict ID controls actually are necessary.

Adaptions are a thing. However paying someone to do it costs a lot of money (even doing it yourself is not cheap) and it's not much more - possibly even less - of a stretch to one's budget to get a whole new car built from the ground up as an EV, so commercial conversions tend to be a niche market focused on more interesting vehicles (e.g. what this Melbourne based conversion company converts).

There's not really much need for swearing in most comments/posts I come across on lemmy/kbin, so I'm not surprised it's uncommon.

I don't see a problem with bringing out the occasional swear word for particular emphasis or humour, but when someone can't write regular posts/comments without cursing it's pretty likely they're just a kid trying to be edgy on the internet.

No, it’s thanks to no one else really begin in the tablet market

It's not like other manufacturers haven't tried (and some still are trying), people just tend to buy ipads instead.

It's pretty easy to figure out which way is which and using cardinal directions can result in less ambiguous/confusing instructions, I think more people should use them.

How pervasive surveillance and tracking of people (and their data) is in todays society. We've become accustomed to it but I'd bet people a century ago would be shocked at the idea of stuff like regular people being filmed from multiple angles when just going to the shops, having a device in their pocket constantly recording their location, receiving targeted advertising based on what information they've looked at previously, etc.

Could potentially be confused with 'The Call Left a Message' though, which is a little different.

I do like the names of a few related ones, like 'The Call Has Bad Reception' and 'Got The Call On Speed Dial'.

The pretty important context to this video is that the boy in question had allegedly just broken into the mayor's house and he was waiting for the police (see here for a news article about the event).

Can confirm, I found creating a new Microsoft account and doing literally nothing with it for around half an hour is suspicious enough to lock the account and require a phone number.

That's a bit rich coming from the people who call a potato a ground apple.
