Google Chrome developers advised they would wait until Fall or Spring to disclose how they would "kill" URLs, but it appears the endeavor has already begun: users have found that the latest build, Chrome 69, hides the "WWW" and "M" subdomains in the address bar. Bleeping Computer has instructions on how to restore what Google insists is "trivial."

    I've been to ~40 states and lived in many, including All the cities you mention. Yeah, nashvile and chicago are different. but they look completely identical from a ski slope in dubai, or the top of the tokyo tv tower. ever buy clean air or a dried up used tampon from a vending machine? lemme tell you, since you're too dumb to figure it out. a place that has those vending machines is so different from your "vast diversity of stateside" that it makes everything you've seen in your mostly over life as oatmeal with different types of fruit. you are literally a retard with a shitty life, who came up with a different definition of the words happy and accomplished. you should move to ukraine. they all have the same brain disease. not that you would know. much of anything.

    Dude, I appreciate you trying to cheer me up with that over the top display of envy but I don't need cheering up. I'm happy most all the time.
