I don’t have the whole context so I might be missing some things, but the whole thing looks to me like “look at how much money I have to burn and how much I don’t care”.

Don’t get attached to a company unless it’s your own gig.
If you get fired and you’re good, you’ll get hired again within weeks.
0.17 cents
So is that less than a cent or is it 17 cents? If it’s the former, I don’t think it’s even possible to make a transaction that small.
Phrasing is important, right?
Fair enough, whatever works for you - but I feel like this is more of an exclusion and the majority of people are just too lazy to set their monitor brightness properly.
My problem is kind of the opposite - most light themes I’ve seen are too contrasty and I can’t discern the different colours all that well, moreover too much contrast is tiring to my eyes. Black text on white background is about the same as white text on black background. Most of the time I prefer dark themes, but those with low or medium contrast.
I’ve thought about this as well, but I haven’t been able to find such a light sensor.
There are actually some models already with a built in ambient light sensor. I don’t know how much of a convenience it would be, whether it would be distracting if small changes in ambient light make the brightness go up and down all the time. I personally prefer changing it manually - I have a macro pad with knobs which are mapped to do that.
Controversial opinion: if your monitor is set to the proper brightness for the room’s ambient light, light or dark theme becomes a matter of preference. If you’re in a completely dark room with your brightness set to 100%, then of course a light theme won’t work.
There’s also the flip side of this - clueless beginners buying needlessly expensive things (not to them because they’re beginners but in general), in turn telling manufacturers that there’s a market for needlessly expensive things. But hopefully the people with more sense outweigh them so that the market regulates itself.
I don’t know what platform this is, but such a review should be moderated in some way. If an employee treats you badly during normal service, then fine, it’s justified to drop a negative review, but if you’re as incompetent as to be unable to understand that nobody is obliged to serve you outside of the stated working hours, it’s entirely your problem and it shouldn’t affect the rating of the establishment.
Cool! Thanks a lot for the thorough answer!
In addition to that there’s usually also working hours on Google Maps that are up to date for most businesses.
What TV box would you recommend?
It’s important to note that it’s the subject distance that’s the primary factor, not the focal length. The focal length is secondary in that it dictates how far you would be to achieve the given framing. If you shoot the picture at 200 mm from the example and then without moving you shoot again at 20, you’ll have the same perspective, just way smaller subject in the frame; if you then crop in the picture shot at 20, you’ll have the same framing too, just way less pixels.
If you’re half a metre away from the dude’s nose, you’ll be roughly 60 cm away from his ears (20% more distance), but if you’re 5 metres away from his nose, you’ll be 5.10 m away from his ears (only 2% more distance) - and this is what creates the difference in apparent sizes of the facial features relative to one another.
The opposite of the opposite of wrong is left.
What I hate probably the most is something mimicking a chat, sending you messages, with notification dots and everything, all in an attempt to grab your attention. I usually leave those sites faster than I got there in the first place.
