No, you definitely can still call them slaves. From the text of the US 13th Amendment:
> Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, except as a punishment for crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted, shall exist within the United States, or any place subject to their jurisdiction.

That's how Swiftkey works, yeah. If you put your cursor at the end of a word, hacker for example, pressing shift once gives Hacker as an autocorrect option, and a 2nd press gives HACKER.

It's no one's responsibility to go find the facts to back up your claims. Provide the evidence or be doubted - it's that simple.

If your own nervous habits lead you to checking work emails outside of work, it sounds like you were preoccupied with thoughts about work regardless of whether or not you received an email. No, the correct solution if you can't ignore a notification is to either block notifications from work apps entirely, or to create a notification schedule that blocks work apps outside of given hours. That schedule should be made during work hours, of course.

https://business.apple.com simply throws an Unsupported Browser error when trying to visit from Firefox. Unfortunate, but it's another one of those "gotta do it for work" things I deal with.
Re:Folding bicycle small enough to fit in hand luggage

I noticed on your site that a carrying case won't be available until Fall 2022 but I'm wondering whether you're imagining a case along the lines of a suitcase or something more like a backpack. My primary vehicle is a motorcycle and since moving to my current location, biking has entirely fallen off my daily schedule because I have no easy way to transport a bicycle and there are no good paths near me. Something I could strap to my back would be a solution better than I could've hoped for to my dilemma. It'd be an instant buy for me.

Do you have a source for this? My searches land primarily on the University of North Carolina professor. I do see that she was a German immigrant but I'm not finding many details beyond that.

On point 3, there are speed ups around 40, ~80, and on. The colors change at the same points.

Adding on to eyegor's response, in some instances, a thin layer of sediment can build up in a gas tank as well. This is normally not an immediate concern in and of itself but letting your fuel pump run too close to empty can start drawing in that sediment which can eventually clog the pump. It's worth noting this is more common in vehicles that tend to sit for a longer periods of time, like lawn mowers, motorcycles, and grandma's beige-on-beige 2008 Camry.

It's exactly this. I know of a couple people who will throw on a reading of a thread from a popular subreddit (AskReddit, TIFU, etc.) and treat it like any other podcast.
