I dunno. I'm in the US and I feel that those saying they wouldn't expect to be liable for services they consume beyond free tier limits sound awfully entitled.
I mean, it's a sleazy practice, especially considering how they word their emails, but I wouldn't expect something for nothing just because I hadn't set up a billing mechanism yet.
All mice supported scrolling. In the before times, you use the mouse to drag the scroll thumb, which was located on the scrollbar. And you'd drag it down to see information further "down" in the document.
Of course they support scrolling with on screen controls. So has the keyboard. I said they’ve never made a mouse with “scroll wheel” which is a very specific device for physical input.
I used to live near a town called "Knik" which all the locals pronounced with a hard "K" like "Kuh-nick". It launched a terrible habit of intentionally pronouncing silent K on all words, which was way more fun that it should have been. I started using all sorts of phrases just so I could pronounce the hard K, like "Don't get your kuh-nickers in a twist". I also started using a handle of "The Knight of Knik" which I of course pronounced as "The Kuh-nite of Kuh-nik", which then I shortened to "The Knik Knight" (pronounced "Kuh-nik Kuh-night"). I likewise applaud the author's restraint.

Ehhh there’s a clear line between giving some important context and recapping the entire history & philosophy of a project. So much blogspam following the recipe pattern of giving your entire life story before getting to the point. No, I don’t need to read five paragraphs about why anyone would choose to use git and why businesses like it for an article aimed at developers.
...thus eliminating all the tedious chatting, relaxing and making friends that people were previously forced to do while waiting for elevators.
