Looks like there is no way i can use it without giving up on screen real estate. I'd love to have it pinned in the browser toolbar and I click it when I need it. But it wouldn't allow itself to be hidden and needs to have a floati

I used to run a small relatively unknown service back in the day when internet on mobile was still unaffordable in India. People could sms to a number that I had procured with any keyword. The service send the user a list of 5 top results&#

Not sure if it's the case elsewhere as well, but at least in India, email address on amazon orders are accessible to sellers if you made a purchase from a seller. I have had sellers reach out to me right after buying something from ama

You might want to make the validation case insensitive as well as make the validation ignore any black space around the answer phrase. https://imgur.com/a/AD2YZ0l

+1. Got tinnitus due to injury to auditory nerve. Those who are just starting with overcoming Tinnitus - Make sure to give time. Human brain is amazing at latent inhibition, ie capability to ignore things that it learns to be irrelevant. Th

This would be a large personal disaster and a full time personal project if the service provider decides to shut down the service. One would have to crawl through all services they have signed up for to update the email addresses. Instead g
