In Latvia we recently introduced a law where we must add country of origin on price tags for all food products. It is quite fun and sometimes surprising to see where something was made.

Based on 100% disk usage, you probably use HDD (Check performance section in Task manager to see disk model to confirm that). Windows performance on HDD is awful since around Windows 8. SSD is pretty much a requirement for Windows, otherwise you will have terrible experience.

Before that these were captions.

I like this article where instead of typical Florida Man term they used Florida Jew.

Google Maps are pretty barebones, but at the same time reliable for general / basic use. Depends on region, but OSM usually will be more detailed. It is also possible your region has some local provider that is even better.

Google Maps in my region excel only for navigation quality for cars and search for commercial stuff (businesses and shops)

In OSM ″Gulf of America″ is added under official_name:en-US tag so if any app uses this tag to display names, it will show up.

Here is the link to OSM object for Gulf of Mexico. And here is a thread that discusses naming.

Any country/language can call any object as they want. This change of course was dumb and petty and doubt it will be adopted by other regions, but this is nothing new or special. Google Maps currently show ″Gulf of Mexico (Gulf of America)″ for me. When checking in another language it shows same naming standard.

Donald′s classic ″You are so lame and unpopular, nobody knows who you are″ rebuttal. Such a quick witted mind he has.

The Collinses refuse to give their daughters traditionally feminine names, because they believe social research shows that women with feminine names are taken less seriously

Their daughters are named Titan Invictus and Industry Americus.

I remember using NoScript extension ages ago for what I believe was at least a year. Occasionally sites had problems with loading certain elements even if I allowed 1st party scripts by default. It was way too often when I had to allow domains of various 3rd party scripts when I finally realized this workflow just sucks and benefit is so miniscule that I just got rid of it. Only blocking extension I am using right now is uBlock.

I know it does not matter, but it pains to see that perfectly normal comments like yours that add to conversation get downvoted just because some people do not agree with its narrative.

If you type it by hand sure, but copy/paste exists.

So fix for both OS is to edit a text file, path is just different?

Slice & Dice is really good. If I play something on phone it is either that or Slay the Spire.
