In We and The Bell Jar written by Yevgeny Zamyatin and Sylvia Plath respectively, individuality is portrayed as a result of the environment around the main characters, D-503 and Esther Greenwood. The theme of the transformation of identity is highlighted differently in We versus The Bell Jar with the usage of a person, an abstract essence, or an object that develops D-503’s and Esther’s character. In We, all aspects of one’s life is controlled by the dominating government, the One State. D-503’...

In an article from USA Today titled “It’s Irresponsible to Spread Fear of Vaccine,” the author notes that due the recent outcry of anti-vaxxers claiming vaccinations create more problems than they solve, reported cases of people obtaining measles and other heinous diseases have spiked. The anti-vaccination argument contains shallow threats full of scare tactics without any observational evidence to back up their claims and a hypocritical ineptness that fails to construct a logical narrative.

Right now, I have a OnePlus phone. Though for my next, I may buy a Pixel 3 for it's Titan M security chip. The Titan M security chip is an isolated processor and memory. Google took their Titan Chip in their data centers and modified it for mobile use.  The first level of security seen comes from the bootloader. The chip is integrated into Verified Boot, Android's way of authenticating each stage of the boot process. Titan M can protect against bad actors trying to guess your passcode hundreds...

I like black. Given the opportunity to get a white phone or a black phone, I'll pick the latter. White car or black car? Black car. Even my lock screen and home screen are completely black, like #000000 kind of black. Black black. So why is my Listed website, "c", white? The short answer is that it's easier to read and it doesn't stress our eyes out as much. According to UX Movement, white text on a black background is harder to read because when white text reflects light, the reflected ligh...

1. My default clock app I have four alarms (two for weekday mornings and two for weekend mornings) that I use regularly. I also enjoy using the timer feature for laundry and the dishwasher, as having that reminder that I need to tend to something rather than asking myself every 20 minutes "Has it been an hour yet?" is helpful. 2.
