That's basically me. I watched it, though, lol, but mostly because the premiere is far enough away that I probably won't remember half of it come July anyway. Otherwise, I'm pretty rigorous about avoiding spoilers of any sort and is why I wasn't really around when everyone was talking about Academy when it was airing (have since watched and enjoyed it though).
Nice. Only omitted that one because I hadn't heard of it. I like to switch apps every so often so will check it out.
Any reason why you can't just use one of the many, many web-based apps and "install" it? Photon, Alexandrite, Tesseract, Voyager, and many more all let you "install" them to your home screen. They run in your phone's web browser but don't have the address bar and work full screen and basically look/act like native apps.
Back in the day, I worked in the corporate office for a retail clothing chain (IT department, so not down in the weeds), and I can't speak for H&M like you gave as an example, but for the one I worked for we didn't design anything.
We had a department of people called "buyers" who would work with various clothing vendors directly and wholesale bulk-purchase items for the stores. Their job was to basically figure out what was in style, what would sell, in which of our markets it would sell, and order them to stock in the stores. Not all stores carried the same styles/designs/whatever. e.g. We stocked college sports apparel only in markets near those colleges, our stores in warmer regions rarely carried winter apparel that we normally stocked in colder regions, etc.
And Linux, but agreed lol.
You mean the images going down fairly regularly?
NGL, it's kinda creepy.
Edit: I feel bad for the flippant answer, so here's a more involved one.
If it's just an academic curiosity, I can understand that. Like, if you're just wondering what all the fuss is about and how some people get sucked in and all that. OTOH, if you're just lonely and trying to fill that void, please don't try to date an LLM.
Having seen you around and generally respecting your position on various things...
Please be trolling. Please be trolling. Please be trolling
Not an answer to your question, merely an amusing anecdote, but Windows used to use a green screen (different shade though) to render videos.
"The media player program didn't render the video pixels to the screen," ... Instead, Windows would render a green screen (or a different color, depending on the version), then "render the video pixels to a graphics surface shared with the graphics card." The final step was to "tell the graphics card that whenever it sees a green pixel about to be written to the screen, it should substitute a pixel from that shared graphics surface."

I suppose I'm afraid that having a dog myself would be like a magnet for other dogs while on walks that I might be uncomfortable with or that my being nervous could make a normal meet and greet go poorly.
Yes. Also, your dog will pick up on your nervousness and either get nervous themselves or become defensive, neither of which are ideal and could make for a bad situation if you're ever at a park or out for a walk. Dogs are little copycats when it comes to mirroring their owner's anxieties and behaviors, and even if you deal with your anxiety, the dog may have adopted it in the mean time and you'd have to work to repair that damage.
Basically, you're smart to be asking these questions before taking on the responsibility of adoption. I'd recommend waiting until you've worked out your issues before potentially passing them on to your four-legged friend.
I was surprised by that, too. When I went looking for a way to decode them with RTL-SDR, I assumed it wouldn't be parsing the audio but a narrowband data stream. TIL also.
Edit: It does kind of make sense with it being AFSK encoded in-band, though, or maybe I'm just so used to it being that way. I always thought the screeches were there to demand attention (and also be something that headend equipment can pick up and respond to). So it's interesting they're doing double duty as both an unmistakable audio cue to pay attention as well as containing the actual alert data.
Plus there are NOAA stations all over the country rather than centralized like the time signal transmitters. It was probably cheaper to do it in band at that scale.
Do you prefer the hulking majesty of a Galaxy class, the sleek curves of an Intrepid class, the retro-futuristic Constitution or something else?
I've grown quite fond of the Danube class runabout. Small, agile, warp capable, and weapons. Most of the amenities of a larger ship in a smaller package. Where the large ships are like flying cities, the runabouts are more like space RVs and the quadrant their open road. There's just something more personal about them that appeals to me.
