Hydrophobic coating loosely means a thin water proof coating on a material that otherwise isn’t waterproof.
Example: the previously mentioned popcorn bags are paper based but with a thin plastic based coating. (Historically we used to use wax for this kind of thing but in the modern day it’s almost always plastic)
Not that containers made of glass, ceramic, or metals that don’t corrode don’t need and typically don’t have hydrophobic coatings.
It’s still there, buried in the settings. TBF I wouldn’t expect them to remove it, because some people probably do use it.
Honestly services like Blue Apron help with this. It’s more expensive than buying your own groceries, but still cheaper than eating out. It also helps you learn meal planning to eventually be able to buy the right amount of food on your own.
(It is easier to do if you have more people to feed though, like ideally at least one friend/partner/roommate to share the subscription with you. You can do a 2-3x a week meals for 2 subscription for one person, but it’s a bit much.)
In Python, self is not a keyword, it’s a conventional variable name. You can replace all instances of “self” with “this” and your code will work the same.
No.
The “all browsers are iOS reskin” thing is browsers must use WebKit for JavaScript and rendering, which are the two biggest parts of a browser. WebKit is a library of code distributed as part of the iOS SDK. However, Safari adds more on top of WebKit, including its plugin API. Installing plugins into iOS Safari wont affect anything just using WebKit because they aren’t using the Safari plugins code.
In theory Firefox could implement its own plugins system for iOS, but it would more limited than the normal Firefox plugin system for other devices, and also they might run into policy issues with Apple (this policy about 3rd party browsers is part of a broader policy against side loading, which has in the past prevented things like emulators and programming apps into the App Store. They have recently started loosening up on their anti-side loading policies, however).
The environmental toll doesn’t have to be that bad. You can get decent results from single high-end gaming GPU.

While selling data in general is shitty, I want to push back on the fear mongering a little bit.
This only applies to new accounts, can be opt-out of, and doesn’t apply to self-hosted content.
During the purge I’d hide in my bunker while downloading as much copyrighted material as possible onto a harddrive.
I used to have one that would broadcast a short-range radio station that you would tune the car radio to. You’d have to make sure its frequency was far from an actual radio station or you’d get crosstalk. On long road trips you’d have to keep adjusting it.
I don’t know if I want my text to be that bright TBH.
I have a 1000 nits monitor and IMO it looks best with things like stars in a night sky or lights in a dark cave.
When it gets too much of the screen bright at once it hurts my eyes. Sometimes that happens when playing Destiny 2, which generally has a pretty good HDR implementation, but when too many explosions happen at once it gets overwhelming.

I use a good chunk of the paid PlexAmp features, although I agree they are mostly just extras.
However, Downloads is a must-have IMO. I often listen to music while traveling, e.g. on a plane or train or on a road trip, and cell service is unreliable in those situations.
Also just getting bombarded by ads to upgrade would be enough for me to consider the product a “free trial”, although tbf I don’t know how bad PlexAmp is about that.
Ah neat, it used to require PlexPass to use the app at all. Now it only requires PlexPass for most of the app, including some pretty basic features like downloads.
Still, it is nice that there’s some level of “free trial” for it.
To be clear I love PlexAmp and use it as my main audio player, but I’ve paid for a plex lifetime pass.
You do need to pay for plexamp
Apple’s aren’t square so it’s not so easy to figure out where to cut that will give you a 1/3 - 2/3 split.
The annoying thing about the dupe policy is sometimes the answer does change and the accepted answer to the existing question is from 5 years ago.
AIUI there was an aspect in the divisibility of the numbers being convenient.
12 is divisible by 2, 3, 4, and 6. 60 is divisible by 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 10, 12, 15, 20, and 30.
10 is divisible by 2 and 5. 100 is divisible by 2, 4, 5, 10, 20, 25, and 50.
If you want to minimize dealing with fractions, 12 and 60 are far more convenient than 10 and 100.
