A parentheses-like mark to group parts of a sentence when it's not clear which part a word belongs to. An example I saw lately that may not translate very well: "You are required to arrive an hour early so there's time to do x, do y and do z". Are you required to do y and z or do you just need the extra time to do them? You can usually tell from context but this type of mixup does happen sometimes.

That works well with bookshops too. On the other hand I haven't had much luck with local supermarkets/convenience stores.

To be fair that's probably because you were searching for Carcassonne which you can find pretty much everywhere. The problem with local is finding a store that actually sells what you want.

With clothes for example you can look through every shop in a commercial area and still not find what you're looking for if it's not currently in fashion in your country. Second hand shops are very good for this and I have many clothes from the UK and czechia this way. But this only really works for clothes.

I might try finding it later but still no idea what to do with the field, sorry :p

Edit: Direct flights to most EU capitals might have been a bit of an exaggeration :)

No answer here, just wanted to say you inadvertently wrote one of the most interesting geolocation challenges I've seen.

The actual solution to that is using your own domain for email which can then be transferred between providers. But yeah changing everything again is annoying.

What does "only web app" mean for posteo? Can you not use it with a standard mail app?

[–] MicrowavedTea 2 points 5 months ago

Huh true, and since you get to see ids and class names in inspect it's not too bad.

Getting another dead browser doesn't make too much sense tbh, might as well keep kiwi. I hadn't thought of the desktop thing, I could try it at some point.

Someone mentioned this in the cross-post. It seems the best alternative so far but I think it doesn't let you edit the html, only remove elements, and the network tab doesn't really work because the extension closes on refresh. The console should work fine though

You're telling me this movie was actually accurate The ant bully

I know remote debugging is a thing but it requires a computer. Sometimes you want to check something on the go. Alternatively, changing some html on the page when something displays weirdly on a phone (or removing pop-ups but ublock takes care of that too).
