The bald eagle is now officially the national bird of the US, after President Joe Biden signed a law on Christmas Eve bestowing the honour upon the white-headed and yellow-beaked bird of prey. BBC News: The bird has been a national emblem in the US for years, appearing on the Great Seal of the US --...
Well... If this isn't a TIL, I don't know what is 🙃
Most of the time it's gplay, if the app is on it... Probably because the developer gets the most traffic through there. Sometimes its days to weeks earlier if its on gplay. Others, github/fdroid is a toss up. Pretty similar
Absolutely. I end up using it in conjunction with gplay and fdroid to see which ones are updated sooner. Very useful.

Mailbird, the email client trusted by millions of Windows users worldwide, is now available for Mac.
Been using Mailbird for some time now. Pretty nice mail client tbh. Now its available for you Mac users 👍
I quit not only because of vaping and tobacco-less nicotine pouches, but because I wanted it. If you are buying it for a family member, you can't make them quit... Hopefully they are wanting to, because you can't make that decision for them. Just like any other addict.
Surely, the idea of giving some crypto to your loved ones on Christmas has crossed your mind. We tell you what to do and what not to do in this case.
There are many reasons why grandma won't appreciate cryptocurrency... But, either way, have you given currency as a gift at Christmas? I've certainly been on the receiving end, and it seemed a bit inconsiderate, ya know?
Spellcasting action roguelike Wizard of Legend is a free PC game via the Epic Games Store, so claim this pixel-art dungeon crawler quickly.
One of the better unknown games I've played. It's free right now. Give it a go if you like rogue-like/souls-like types. Very rewarding gameplay (and pretty difficult).
Does anyone else think Star Wars is a bit muddled? This may be a bit of an unpopular opinion, but I haven't delved into much of it outside the OG 4-6, 1-3, Mandalorian, and a couple games. It just seems that there is sooo much out there. Are they cohesive?
It'll last forever! Remember having one of these waaay back... Don't remember what happened to it, but rest assured, it didn't die before I lost it 😆
Excellent point. Hopefully it will as it seems like its in the scope of AI capability.
In actuality, this is fascinating! A spreadsheet from a time when dates were referenced by the conclusions of major events. Wonder if someone got back paid for their ancestors' work developing excel though 😉
Exclusive: Diagnoses part of lawsuit being brought against parent company Meta and outsourcer Samasource Kenya
A part of the job, nonetheless. I can only hope they were provided counselling during their time working at meta. If not, this would be a major oversight by the company. There are certain people for this job... Not one for everyone, obviously.
The winter solstice is today, bringing the shortest day and longest night of the year to the Northern Hemisphere.
Sometimes people perplex me in that some of the most fundamental things aren't known to the newer generations (albeit, some of the older ones too, but not nearly as many). Nonetheless, I bet there are people that will TIL this! And you know what, have at it, obtain that knowledge 👍
Cost of doing business is such a drop in the bucket for these companies... Apple, Google, Microsoft, etc etc etc. These settlements are just that... Business.
Haven't even tried... Its like the $16 tax refund I haven't cashed for like 10 years 😆
Thirded. Came from Proton even. It's been solid for sure!
Use it daily with a couple applications. Namely Thunderbird on Android and Mailbird on Windows.
