Checking into doctor’s office and they say “sign on the signature pad” I asked to see what I’m signing and they got visibly aggravated.

IANAL but how could that signature have any legal force whatsoever when it’s not attached to anything

It’s a cool word for sure, but not one you’re going to start dropping into conversation.

My dictionary says “usage: archaic” so one could argue that it’s not a great Spelling Bee pangram…

I got it (seemed like a word I’ve heard before) and intend to look it up in a dictionary later today 😉

Never had a hand cramp or lost my page when an ebook slipped out of my hand. And you can adjust the type size.

“I really liked it. You should get it too” ain’t the same as loaning them your copy.

The renter said ApproveShield’s Argyle-powered widget asked them to log into their employer’s Workday. That's when they noticed something unusual.

“Argyle hijacked my live Workday session, stayed hidden from view, and downloaded every pay stub plus all W-4s back to 2024, each PDF seconds apart,”

Landlords Demand Tenants’ Workplace Logins to Scrape Their Paystubs Screenshots shared with 404 Media show tenant screening services ApproveShield and Argyle taking much more data than they need. “Opt-out means no housing.”

Font size and contrast affect readability more than stacking order. #graphicdesign #typography
