I have stupidly sensitive skin, and a lot of deodorants cause me to break out horribly and even feel like I've been burnt. Any sensitive skin people out there tried this? Don't want to risk it, but would love to switch to a Canuckian brand.

I would ask Randall Munroe!

Google is probably the most egregious monopolist, but I think the others should probably be emailed down in turn. I would absolutely love MS to have another round of antitrust penalties.

I'd check Canada first, then maybe try some pawn shops...

I have a nice Juniper. It's an old cast-off, but no issues.

I own a Mode 7 Retro ii flip phone. Modern Android, tiny screen on the top, number pad on the bottom which I never use, and the dang thing fits nicely in my pocket and the screen never gets scratched. Faux leather on the outside. One of my profs literally calls me "Flip phone." I do carry a tablet a lot of the time, so my phone is mostly for calls and podcasts. I doom scroll on the tablet.

John Carter. I just... Liked it! I feel like it was so close to being a big deal, and it got Focus Group-ed into mediocrity. Like, they could have called it "A Princess of Mars", leaned into its legacy of being this epic thing, but instead they buried it.

I meant to say "accept", but I think it works either way...

I support you!

Can I say Zorba the Greek? I think you probably mean a painting or something, but this never fails to cheer me up if I am having a bad day. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dzlcxN0lxSo

I had to walk a classmate through how to install a program in Windows. You know, go to the website, hit download, wait for it to finish, next next next, etc. We're two weeks away from getting our diplomas. In IT.

Yup. A few games are like that for me. I set Steam to use compatibility with all games, and the only ones that don't work at all are the anti-cheat ones. Even the new Monster Hunter works great for me. I have a mix of Nvidia and AMD GPUs, so it's not just smug Linux AMD talking, either.
