 So, this "web designer" didn't design it; he just chose a theme.

I believe that Libero paper diapers are sold in lots of countries. In Norwegian, a "fis" is a fart. So LibreOffice is jokingly referred to as Libero-fis ("Libero Fart").

Why is it called "Astronomy" when it could have been "Skience"?

I keep it turned off. Five reasons:
1) I divovered thst eveb if I mistake threee words contiguoslt thr resuly is more or less understandable. With predictive text it would be gibberish with random meaning, especially if instead of a mistyped character there is a different number of characters in the words.
2) Farker sends statistics and keeps a database of words typed in proximity of one another. Privacy much?
3) If I spoke a single language I could work with it. Two languages means a lot of back and forth (because apparently managing a single database with two languages merged together is for dummies) and since I switch seamlessly between Italian and International groups/forums/friends I just hate that.
4) It works perfectly fine for people with limited vocabulary. My English vocabulary may be limited but my Italian one is definitely not, and I always end up fighting against the predictive text rather than exploiting its power.
5) Italian has a lot of verbal tenses, 21 for the record, verbs ending also change (but may not) depending on the number and gender of the subject, and every word is gendered. That makes for a large number of combinations for the same word which make the prediction algorithm give up fairly quickly.
I used T9 and Predictive text for 15 years but I fare much better now that I disabled it. My only common problem on the phone is the spacebar ridiculously narrow, I often hit "n", "b" or "." instead of spacem makingnfor.terriblebspelling that.looksblike.hownmy dad writes texts.

I wear Brooks Beast[^] myself. It's a great shoe for 'bigger' runners (I'm 6'1 and 220 lbs) who overpronate.

and due to virus lock-downs I was left with no choice but to buy them from a drug dealer.
I have no idea what he laced them with, but I was tripping all day.

It may be strange, but evidently you've gotten the hang of it. You're up on Monday!

Yes I've not seen this style before where you have to solve half of the clue to give you the remainder or all of an anagram to give you the answer . Conventionally to hogs would be the anagram.

Hmm, I thought I'd seen others recently that did this kind of thing, although maybe not for anagrams. I wasn't that happy with this one, but if I'd written pigs instead of hogs, you'd have solved it before it was posted!
