Of course there's an element of being more scared of thunderstorms when you're young and noticing them more. I also wear earplugs at night now as the world seems noisier, but I digress.
Also:

"We are excited to announce we are supporting our family in their health kick journey. To support them, we have taken the difficult decision to reduce the number of beverages available. We remain fully committed to unlimited delicious tap water, free of charge!"
Yeah they generally have the capability to prevent that auto cancellation of your segments (within a certain time frame) but in this case unfortunately they were unwilling or it was too late to catch it.
It's generally to protect revenue because buying A-B-C instead of B-C can be cheaper, and hoards of people used to just segments to save money. So they just assume everyone is trying to cheat them.
That fine got an incredible amount of media attention.
The lack of actually paying it, not so much...
Talk about hyperbole
Not intending to sound snarky but do you just not use the web much? Or if you're adding allows all the time, what's the net gain?
> Placement of the sign varies. Countries have generally continued the style used for their former currencies. In those countries where previous convention was to place the currency sign before the figure, the euro sign is placed in the same position (e.g., €3.50).[7] In those countries where the amount preceded the national currency sign, the euro sign is again placed in that relative position (e.g., 3,50 €).
> In English, the euro sign – like the dollar sign ⟨$⟩ and the pound sign ⟨£⟩ – is usually placed before the figure, unspaced,[8] the reverse of usage in many other European languages
> The European Union's Interinstitutional Style Guide (for EU staff) states that the euro sign should be placed in front of the amount without any space in English, but after the amount in most other languages
The 90c cycle is the only one I fully trust to get proper hot but I can't wash everything at 90
Junit test runs say No tests available about 50% of the time
It feels slower and slower
Today I started getting "unable to save settings" or something, no idea what that is about
It really shows that they're distracted from quality. My guess is with the breadth of features and quite amazing attention to detail, they needed 100% dedication to those efforts, and now a chunk of the company is doing something else, and now the product is falling apart
But hey we have a totally new console engine or something so that's really nice (I've personally never used the console ...)
Intermediate and advanced language learning requires interaction with humans.
It's great for those who don't want to interact with humans or feel awkward during a human exchange. It's a safe space
OP I think is joking La Liga got the power turned off to protect their revenues.
First they came for the terrorists, then they came for the dual citizenship lesser criminals.
We're getting a glimpse of who's next. The Dutch government wanted to strip citizenship from people convicted of a crime with an "antisemitic element"
