Your welcome... I liked it when it was Google Zeitgeist and they published hard numbers but since they rebranded and named their video series Google Zeitgeist good luck finding out the actual numbers ๐Ÿค

Who said anything about a low res backlit screen? And if you read monitors and screens all day, it may be an issue, but with dark mode reading it is fine. The devices I am talking about have about twice the PPI as a 22/24 inch 1080p monitor. There are cheap e-readers that have atrocious resolutions but the tablets I am talking about are fine, but not as good as EInk.

It could have been droves... it also could have been 10 people. It also doesn't say which way they wanted to change their vote. It could all be LIV's who learned something they didn't know after voting early or it could have been people torn about their vote panicking and seeing if they could change their mind.

This doesn't tell you anything but people searched it and not how many.

That is a percentage score. So you take the highest level of searches and it will always be 100% and all lesser scores are in comparison to that score of 100(%). If you can find out what the actual number of searches are for that one score, you can derive the approximate number of searches in the other places. It shows an informational tool tip on desktop.

If you can get an Onyx Boox tablet used by a first adopter that it wasn't right for, it has the best of all worlds. Open, Android, EInk, large screen, and can be used to bang out content and read email. Other than that I would just get a downmarket but new Android Tablet and use it as a dedicated eBook and audio book/podcast device. The screen isn't ideal but you can get a stock android tablet for $150 bucks us and use Caliber on it along with all the typical android stuff. Hell you might even be able to get a Linux tablet that would fit your needs but cost a little more. But if you go tablet the devices tend to be a bit more open to sideloading.

CLICKBAIT the theory goes "if given an infinite amount of time, a monkey pressing keys on a typewriter would eventually write the complete works of William Shakespeare." and then they say that would take longer than the universe would exist. SEE THE ORIGINAL QUOTE... INFINITE TIME. Also that is if it went through every combination. Due to Random Chance it could happen the 3rd try of you doing it.

This is a nothing burger of a story about some mathematicians that crunched some of the numbers involved and didn't like what they saw.

Awww, Muffin.

Oh, they rebooting One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest?

AIUI those were already partially in the can when he was still charged and they stuck by the "Innocent until proven guilty in a court of law" especially since he is voicing the role and not appearing as a face actor. I don't expect that to be continued and I would expect a death or recasting soon.

Good luck getting hired after a Jan 6th conviction.

All you have to know is that when Twitch banned Gambling Streams, and some of the people who made bank on those streams started to complain about Twitch, a couple of guys behind large gambling sites decided to open their own streaming platform called "Kick" that gives a much better cut of advertising and allowed gambling streams, and got allot of bottom of the barrel (but not all of them) streamers, especially the ones who have been banned off of other services but were popular.

Supposedly they have been getting better with their enforcement, and started getting better detection, but then their is all the stuff that comes with gambling too.

You know when the streaming platform that is known for gambling and being the last refuge of streamers and D-List Celebs, along with a few people who don't care about anything but the higher cut, has more class than you, even if it was scripted, or worse it was him paying her off because she was poor and homeless.

3 day ban? I am sorry that should read 3 year ban.

It is one of its co-founders offering so it isn't 100% clear either way where it is coming from.
