Still sucks that it could be mandatory. I work in a government job in Australia and we have "Flexible Hours" which means that any time worked under or over the standard 7:30hrs per day counts towards a flex balance. Then we can use the excess flex balance to then taking shorter days or even take a couple days off if we have the balance for it. It works wonders for staff morale and retention.

Mass killings are always going to happen. The difference is that it's a lot harder to kill a lot of people with a knife than it is with a automatic handgun or rifle. Effective range of a knife is maybe 1-2 metres. Effective range of a gun is hundreds of metres.

"If only someone had a gun then they could have shot him"

Forgetting that he would have then likely had a gun himself and we end up at the exact same situation in the US with Mass Shootings happening so regularly it doesn't even make national news.

Stock android on the Pixel's have just an "Internet" button which controls both wifi and mobile data. You can press it, then it will show toggles for wifi, mobile data.

So, scrolling past marks the posts as "read" but that won't hide them. The way I do it is to use the "hide read" button in the more options menu where the settings button lives. Alternatively you can use that other setting to automatically hide all read posts, but I can't find that setting either...
