Firstly, that's incorrect in terms of phonics, as seen in so, no, go, hello, etc.
Secondly, "tho" was a common replacement as part of American English spelling reform - see also "thru" and "OK" as survivors of this reform, even if they're perceived as informal.
Two things I can think of: first, that the harvesting process will unavoidably involve killing a lot of lac bugs, even if they're filtered out later, and secondly, that some vegans include insect-produced substances (notably honey) in the things they avoid.
Also addressed in the video! Neither I nor the video creator has any stake in what you choose to do, and I'd prefer not to rehash the whole video for you since it's right there for you to watch if you're interested in this topic, but the main points were generally about reducing subscription costs and gaining better control of content (e.g. no surprise removals of music, videos, and ebooks).
Persist with the video! The text-to-speech is only for a couple of quick screens - the rest is very personal, and they cover a bunch of use cases.
If you really don't want to, the server OS they recommend around two-thirds of the way through is YunoHost, a beginner-friendly way to run services as containers on any capable spare computer. The YunoHost website has a bunch of use cases that are also covered in the video.
The Start menu is C++/XAML, but the "recommended" section uses React Native for Windows. That still means a performance hit, but it's got nothing to do with Electron.
When you install TikTok, it fabricates its own independent SoC within your phone. Sometimes you can tell because the case bulges slightly, but it depends on the model.
This isn't strictly forbidden by Android and iOS APIs (yet), but there are limitations – this most notably affects the capacitors on the new SoC which degrade quickly and can make a faint clicking noise, hence the name "TikTok".
Use whatever software you want, more power to you, but I'm not totally convinced that "chaired by a fascist transphobic multibillionaire oligarch who actively subverts democracy at every opportunity" and "introduced a feature I don't want to use into my free secure messaging app" are even close to equivocal?
I really wanted to like Baldur's Gate 3. I didn't play the prior games in the series, but I know a bunch of people who brim with excitement about it.
I've not really been involved in DnD in any form. I played the original Warcraft RTS as a kid, I've read everything from Tolkien, and I love some of the Elder Scrolls games, but that's about it. I'd always got the impression that a lot of it was a bit hammy and amateur on the writing side, but I assumed BG3 would buck the trend.
...I just didn't vibe with it at all. I found the combat exasperating, I didn't mesh with the character motivations, and I failed to really get immersed. Maybe I really needed more backstory than a couple of lore lessons over beers.
It's obviously a great game, but it was such a miss for me, and I wish that weren't the case.
Got to block out time or you'll find yourself accepting an invite to Janine's three-hour-long cross-project check-in meeting even though she knew you were hibernating that season.
OnlyOffice is Russian-owned, via a holding company in Singapore. When Russia invaded Ukraine and sanctions threatened the business, they obfuscated this, but it's still Lev Bannov's product.
The importance you attach to this is up to you, but they try quite hard to hide it.
Just a paraphrase of Poe, no credit due to me!
