<Quatre vingt dix sept>

In swiss-french it's more logical. Instead of "quatre vingt" (eighty) they say "huitante," and "quatre vingt dix" (ninety) is "nonante." It still throws me when talking to people in France, I have to stop them for a moment to be sure I'm writing the right number down. :laugh:

Just English and French. I can get around in Spanish, and apparently I can point at things and make a poor effort to buy a charger in Portugese. :laugh:

I saw a video of some parents trying to get their children to phone a number. It was painful to watch. Equally painful was a kid with a Gameboy. They weren't pushing the buttons and they didn't understand why it wasn't reacting when they touched the screen. :no:

 

New Girl wasn't an amazing show, but Nick Miller/Jake Johnson was very relateable:

Mhm, I've seen those reactions of young kids trying to understand what is and how to use it. I only barely ever used it, but I do get how it works..

      By Fiza Ali · Posted

      Samsung Galaxy Watch8 is now selling at its lowest price ever by Fiza Ali Amazon is now offering Samsung Galaxy Watch8 at its lowest price yet with a 34% discount (purchase link down below). The Galaxy Watch8 is equipped with a 1.5-inch Super AMOLED display with a resolution of 480x480 pixels and support for 16 million colours.

For connectivity, the watch supports Bluetooth 5.3, Wi-Fi 802.11a/b/g/n on both 2.4GHz and 5GHz bands, and NFC. Furthermore, supported Bluetooth profiles include A2DP, AVRCP, HFP, and HSP. Location services are provided through GPS, GLONASS, BeiDou, and Galileo satellite systems. Moreover, the Galaxy Watch8 includes a range of sensors as well, including an accelerometer, barometer, bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) sensor, electrical heart sensor (ECG), optical heart rate sensor, gyroscope, geomagnetic sensor, infrared temperature sensor, and ambient light sensor. For media playback, the watch supports MP3, M4A, 3GA, AAC, OGG, OGA, WAV, AMR, and AWB audio formats.

      Remarkably based article from Garter - apparently there IS someone working there that actually understands mainframe systems.
