I remember how many, many years ago I went to movies to watch a Japanese animation that I had read to receive really great reviews. I didn't have high expectations for it, but once the movie started rolling I was blown away. It was good, so good that it actually got an Academy award. Being also a LEGO fan, I found this pretty darn great: https://www.brothers-brick.com/2017/08/30/chihiros-journey-a-lego-tribute-to-spirited-away/
@jws If I had a consulting/freelancing company, I would make sure that my deals would have a clause that if the customer doesn't pay within a certain period the work will be made freely available to the public.

@matigo The background service that handles the communication times out when opening the socket. Now that I thought about this problem again, it may be an OS version issue. The devices the app will be run on have Marshmallow, the others have Nougat.
Today's WTF Android: a 3rd-party library that handles the Bluetooth communication with a payment terminal couldn't open the connection because of a timeout on Nexus 5X and OnePlus 3T. No such problems with Samsung A5, which is the device the app will be running on when it is deployed.
@streakmachine Have to have a possibility to have fun, this shit also know as work (or more specifically, Android) is causing headache once again.

@matigo Oh comma my… Maybe we should be different and make it black?

@matigo Yes, that www-subdomain is essential, without it the user should get an error message (that, obviously, does not tell what went wrong).
// @streakmachine
@c Nope. Just declining number of deliverables (letters, magazines, newspapers) and their own inability to adjust to the changes in a way where the customers would benefit.

@c Knowing how the national postal service works here1, I would like email (or e-mail, as some 'Muricans still call it) to be called just mail.

That is, not that well. There's a lot of things going wrong with them.
