Bigger screen means different features are displayed, one of which being the graphic that I've copied below. This may very well be the third of fourth time since January of 2020 that I have used the laptop. Since I never see or hardly ever see all of these features, I am neither cognizant of them nor do I assign them much importance. Today, I noticed this and it makes me wonder about opinions from any of you who care to chime in, whether or not you use them an if so, in which ways?

He was sitting two seats away cos yeah, every other table is blocked off. Anyway, my husband and I are both righties who keep our forks in our left hands and our knives in our right hands throughout the duration of our meals but the guy sitting two seats away noticed this and asked if we were both left-handed. I shall use the results of this poll to determine if my husband and I have been eating backwards all this time, but we're probably not going to change.1. I'm a righty and I keep my fork in my left hand and my knife in my right hand throughout the duration of my meal.2. I'm a righty and I keep my fork in my right hand and my knife in my left hand throughout the duration of my meal.3. I'm a righty and I cut with my right hand, then I set the knife down, then I pick up the fork with my right hand, then I take a bite, then I set the fork down and pick the ... less

The bear did not respond well, but the woman was able to get away. The comments were really quite funny, but this one made me really laugh:"When hiking in bear country it is best to make noise so as not to startle them. What is recommended is to wear clothing with bells sewed on them and to carry pepper spray. It is also recommended that you learn to identify bear scat. Bear scat usually will smell like pepper and have bells in it." less

So I think if Trump was a Oscar Mayer wiener he would push Oscar Mayer wieners at all his rallies and press converances. I also think he would use his presidential powers to ban Canadian made Maple Leaf weiners from entering the US because he has sour grapes about Canada's Prime Minister not attending his recent trade talks with Mexico.

I'm used to companies performing regular reviews and doing slight increases, but this is insane, especially at a time when everything is closed and nobody is driving. I can't fathom how they're justifying a hike like this. Accident risk has to be way down and nothing has changed on my end. I'm wondering if my company is just being greedy and/or they're out a ton of money because people aren't paying their bills and need to make up for it by raising rates for everyone else. Have you guys noticed this?!? less
