It appears so. I had an unrooted S20 with T-mobile and it did have the option to enable RCS (tried it for a bit but it was pretty useless)

wasn't this already a thing? anyways isn't it interesting that 9/10 times that people talk about the dangers of "mobile phones" and "the internet" what they actually mean is corporate owned social media

 

Polish state rail operator PKP Intercity is launching a series of journeys along picturesque routes in restored 1980s trains to celebrate its anniversary and allow passengers to “discover new regions of the country at a leisurely pace”.

The weekend-only service, called “Nieśpieszny” (“Unhurried”), will begin operating on 17 April and will offer 40 journeys across all regions of Poland, with routes changing each week

caring a lot about low birth rates and demographic shift (into an aging population). i have litereally never met a single person who's reason for worring about these wasn't just racism. when pressed enough their arguements almost always deteriorate into some variant of the nazi "great replacement" psueudoscience

it's about 50/50 between

  1. going into a bookstore and picking out whatever looks interesting, writing down the name of the book and author, getting some more context about the book or skirm through reviews and buying it.

  2. or just looking up "books simmilar to x" looking through recommendation threads on piefed/lemmy or such.

the "checking the reviews" part is especially important for non fiction, i'd rather not waste time and money reading about something that the author has no actual knowladge in

as someone who's got a close relative who happens to be a dentist, here are my recommendations based on gifts that people have actually given her.

  • chocolate bar, box of chocolates - might seem a bit counter intuitive, but it's actually the most common gift given by far. can be a hit or miss, especially if you don't know the persons preferences / alergies / diet.
  • tea or coffee - honestly a really underated gift, surprised it's not mentioned more offten, also most doctors drink coffee so if you're unsure about whether you should get tea / coffee, the latter is the safer choice
  • small household items like coasters, hand towels, potted plants - not as commonly given but a lot more memorable, pretty much always usefull in some way, (she uses the decorative turkish towels one patient got her 6 years ago to this very day)
  • something handmade - listed last because it's by far the hardest to do, since your options are pretty limited unless you're skilled in some sort of handiwork, the easiest to do i imagine would be some sort of caligraphy / word art or (even a relatively simple) origami project.

but of course something like a thank you note will do just fine, a little kindness and appreciation can go a long way :)
