    Being the most favorable game market does not mean "there is no competition". It's just the competition is doing it wrong so everyone flocks to what they like or have stuck with.

  • I use edge at work and Firefox at home. Using edge every work day for 3 years and don't really have many complaints about it. I used to actively avoid it, but after trying it, it doesn't really seem all that bad.

    My only gripe is I infrequently have trouble logging into an Ethernet device locally.

  • US prisoners are being assigned dangerous jobs. But what happens if they are hurt or killed?

  • We still got shift differential on swing shift. I did it for 7 years. It maximizes 24/7 coverage with less crews, but it has a side effect of the end users of the schedule developing severe alcohol abuse and depression.

    Sat - Friday 8 hours day

    Wednesday - Tuesday 8 hours night

    Friday - Thursday 8 hours second

    The pay period was separated in such a way that you would not get double time even though you are scheduled 7 days in a row every week.

    I messed the schedule up so I fixed it. And yes, there was only 1 day off between second shift and day shift rotation.

  • We heard you like toggles so we put a toggle in your toggle.

    This toggle is annoying because what was once 1 press to turn on BT is now 2. It gets me every day.

    The Google messaging update looks bad. It reminded me I purchased textra a while ago.

    They really didn't have to redesign a text box. Please stop reinventing the wheel. I don't need another pop up in my life.
