It's absolutely allowed.

It's not as good as previous versions but I am running stock android and I have wifi power saving and phone (background) power saving modes available. I just checked and the estimate of time until zero percent battery goes from 22 hours to 28 hours with the node that limits backup processes, and that is with 59% on the battery.

There was a power save mode on my old phone that made everything grey screen and stuff that was way better. I think I enabled it for a camping trip once and used like 20% battery in 3 days.

That isn't funny and you shouldn't make jokes like that.

It was a ❤️ loveseat ❤️.

Not saying that they were right, because they were wrong, but this was actually a presented logical reason why voting was restricted to male landowners at one point. They were the only part of the population that received a formal education. Regardless of motivation this became a method of oppression.

To be clear, I agree that public education is a key to a strong democracy, as is removing restrictions on voting.

I went back to watch both trailers today after seeing the movie last week. One is a lot of plot points but jumbled to make it somewhat unclear (by design?). The other has what you would expect to be full scenes that I don't even recall from the movie. The full plot is not more than hinted at in either. I enjoyed the movie, and having seen a trailer didn't take away from that at all, in my experience.

Again, the disclaimer: I agree that plot revealing trailer suck. I typically avoid watching trailers in theaters by looking at my phone or whatever just to distract myself, and never watch trailers at all outside of theaters.

I agree with your overall sentiment, but I actually was thinking about the trailer I had seen for The Fall Guy as an example of a trailer done with a little more care, before even reading your post. I thought The Fall Guy trailer was cool in that it made you think you knew the whole story but it was a bit of an intentional misdirection. I would have bet $20 going into that movie that I knew the plot ... and lost. I will add the disclaimer that I am typically trying not to pay attention to trailers because so many of them do spoil the movie.
