Because not everywhere works exactly like the US? Besides the point, if you work at a McDonald’s, they are not going to give you a phone so you can text your manager. If you don’t have a means of communication you are not getting the job.
The only SMS I’ve gotten in the last 5 years are the double authentication ones. WhatsApp is the default way of texting in many countries. Outside of the US, when you ask people to stop using WhatsApp, chances are you are asking them to give up texting entirely. Which you must realize is complicated to say the least
Almost all jobs in which you have to interact with people, so most of them. I work in an office and i need it to communicate with clients, with my boss or coworkers, or with a government agency. You have to understand that WhatsApp is ubiquitous outside of the US. Here we never got free SMS, so WhatsApp became the default way of texting. Even people on iphones use WhatsApp here
When everybody uses WhatsApp to communicate, which is a meta service, it’s a bit complicated to cut off communication with literally everybody in your country (work, friends, businesses) just to not use a service. It’s disingenuous to expect this without some sort of change within the current status quo. And this is coming from someone who doesn’t use any of their other platforms but has to use WhatsApp, because that’s literally the only choice
I really liked season 1, so I’m looking forward to the second
Ever since I stumbled across some videos on YouTube about it, I always picture Elon as Wheatley from Portal 2
I’m sorry, i didn’t know i could insert images directly, thanks!!
I’ve already commented this down below, so i’ll just copy paste here.
I suppose it depends if you are using it correctly or not. I’ve used a bidet all my life, and where i live bidets are a separate bowl from the toilet, made from the same materials, and virtually every household has one. I’ve never had a problem of it not cleaning enough
Afterwards i’ll just dry a bit with a towel specifically used for that
Here’s an image. You can see the bidet has a kind of jet of water coming upwards with force, exactly below where you would sit. You can regulate the intensity and if done properly you can clean yourself completely https://images.app.goo.gl/6w3EMWrAk34DBwJd7

Well that’s the neat part, it’s by design. It’s not a coincidence that now when we are more connected to each other than ever, now that instant communication would make it possible to coordinate globally, the powers that be instead focus on divisiveness above all else, on misinformation and contrarianism above all else. A nation divided is too busy fighting each other to realize they can make it over the mountain.
An image is worth 3.5 BILLION words
Not European, but from a country that also uses the metric system. We give out our height in meters, as you said. Saying it in cm would be okey for medical reasons I suppose. Also there isn’t much difference in what unit you use, you just have to multiply/divide by 100, which is easily done in your head
That’s what happens when the people running your government are paid by Russia
Watching from an outside of the U.S. perspective, it leaves me speechless seeing how staggering the transition was from ‘bastion of democracy and the free world’ to ‘increasingly malfunctioning society with russian-like values’
These are photographs, actually
The god I believe in is Nicolas cage and he already has a human form (allegedly)
Yes, he probably was a real person. No, he wasn’t magical, he was just a regular dude who managed to form a cult of personality
That’s what I’m saying, it’s incredible! Here where I live fast food places don’t offer free refills, you have to buy another soda if you want more
It always amazes me that in the USA you can go and get a free refill at McDonald’s. Like you can get unlimited soda just by buying a cup?
I feel that’s a line taken from Foundation by Asimov, describing the fall of the galactic empire
