I think Brave did some aggressive marketing, including social media posts and comments. I did buy their narrative at first too - a browser that already tuned to block ads and trackers. But later I’ve noticed that it constantly connects back to brave server and it looked suspicious. Firefox is the best.

Casios are great, still have a couple simple ones. Reliable and affordable. Absolutely loved the timer option - 2 pushes left bottom button, 1 time right bottom one, 15 minutes rice timer is started in a second and without unlocking the phone :)

To me it did look kinda cool at first, I agree, kinda complex, almost like a large detailed chronograph. But then, one of the reasons to buy a wristwatch was to avoid looking at the cellphone to see the time. So eventually, the reality hit and it turned out I am so used to large numbers to be hours(from childhood apparently), it’s a habit, an expectation. And those are hard to change. In a way, I gave up coolness for utility :) Thank you for the kind words!

Thank you! It does have a cleaner look, I like it too. That original dial was just too much.

Thank you! My first one, but I did watch bunch of Marshal’s videos from WristwatchRevival, so I got a bit of confidence that it is possible.

Chinese, might be dependent on the province though.

Some cultures eat with their mouths open and it is considered as a kind of a compliment to the cook, like “hey it’s so good, it makes me do this loud noise while I eat it”. Quite unpleasant.

My first thought was going on another Titanic expedition in a sub.
