So far with instagram I have discovered that sign up with Facebook doesn't work on android, choose photo from twitter doesn't work on iOS.

Idk why "religious freedom" means "freedom to discriminate" but maybe that's just one of many reasons I'm atheist.

-
dantoml poor life choices dani. Poor life choices. Choose your airline and COMMIT.
-
dantoml well it's united so it would be complicated. But at least you chose.
-
dantoml that's good you are unnaturally tall
-
dantoml growing up without sunlight does that to people.
-
sporkmonger freedom of religion is supposed to mean freedom from persecution, and instead it's used to persecute the "other".
-
dantoml basically
-
sporkmonger a gvt can only enforce actions, not acceptance anyway. The problem is with the use of these laws not the laws themselves.
-
sporkmonger to put it another way - isn't it equally ridiculous to sue the government not to be paid to make a cake?
-
Now I've discovered I can't do what I wanted to on instagram and I don't want it anymore but now I have all these friends on it fml.

How to apply a screen protoector to a tablet perfectly first time. 1. Buy 6 screen protectors. (I think this step is really important).

2. Steam hotel bathroom 3. Put tablet on clean towel 4. Check positioning above wrap 5. Unwrap tablet 6. Spray lightly w/ alcohol cleaner

7. Take film off protector 8. Apply to screen 9. Reposition protector (alcohol spray helps) 10. Push out bubbles 11. Leave to dry

I think that the Muslim ban means that if you ask someone to travel to the US you are de facto asking them two questions.
-
1) if they are Muslim 2) if they were born in a specific place.
-
If these are not questions you would ask directly (which they shouldn't be), you probably shouldn't ask them implicitly, either.
-
Note: asking US employees (on visas and incl green card holders) to leave the US for work is also an implicit asking of these questions.
-
Basically any kind of travel involving US has become super loaded with inappropriate questions and I hope your HR people are handling it.

Ofc this ban is inhumane but since tech cos mainly seem to not gaf about that perhaps we should raise the practical questions too.
