That seems like the hypothesis they suggest. Interesting implications.
Your nasal passages include structures called "conchae" which, among other purposes, secrete mucus to capture small and potentially disease-carrying particles from incoming air. [1] It's not a perfect defense, of course, but better to have it than not - and when you breathe through your mouth, you don't get the benefit.
I just ran through this - works flawlessly. One peculiarity that might help someone else in my shoes: I was connecting to my VPN node through Terminal (with Solarized Dark) on OS X and generating the QR code with the suggested command but the result was a little 'off' somehow and didn't read as a QR code to my phone. By replacing 'ansiutf8' with simply 'ansi' I was able to get a smoother, readable QR code. Just a heads up in case someone else follows this excellent guide and gets the same issue - I fully blame Solarized ;)
Somewhere (possibly Reddit?) I learned about the unlabeled mute button for gas station TV ads. For certain pumps there are two rows of five or six unlabeled white buttons on the left and right of the screen - pressing the second button from the top on the right hand side of the screen mutes the blaring advertisement for me about 50% of the time. The times it works is pure bliss. YMMV but it's worth a try.
Failing that, just press all the buttons you can find that don't immediately look like they'll cancel your transaction. I've found them all over the place. And I've found pumps that don't have any apparent mute buttons. But not very often.
> John Gaughan, an American manufacturer of equipment for magicians based in Los Angeles, spent $120,000 building his own version of Kempelen's machine over a five-year period from 1984.[62] The machine uses the original chessboard, which was stored separately from the original Turk and was not destroyed in the fire. The first public display of Gaughan's Turk was in November 1989 at a history of magic conference. The machine was presented much as Kempelen presented the original, except that the opponent was replaced by a computer running a chess program.[63]
I bought an iPhone SE when it came out. It's the perfect phone in my opinion. I am fully prepared to use it until it falls apart and it's so well built I think it may take a while.
Nothing they released after it makes sense to me. Too big and they deleted features I want while adding nothing useful to me. I wasn't expecting an SE2 so I wasn't disappointed when it failed to appear.
This iPhone and my MacBook Pro 2015 are the last Apple products I'll expect I'll ever own. Not out of spite but because they no longer make things I need, or even want.
See, I'm the opposite, but I know exactly where you're coming from. I stayed away from the iPhone until they started increasing the screen size, because the original was waay too small for my tastes. But when it came time to get a work phone, I purposefully chose the 5S and then later the SE because I was already carrying a huge phone. I didn't need to carry two.
I still feel the SE is a bit too small to be my main phone, but I do wish they kept making a phone that small. I know my sister prefers it, I prefer it for my second phone, a lot of people liked it.
Plus the 5S/SE industrial design is 10x better than any phone that came before or after. It's just beautiful, it's easy to hold, it's durable. It's just a great small phone, even if I think it's too small for my tastes.
I started with the iPhone 4 then moved to Android for a bit with a Galaxy S3. I thought the S3 was perfect until I went back to a iPhone 5S. When the TouchID gave out, I went with the SE.
Much like you, I believe that the SE is absolute perfection.
Even with my large hands, I don't personally have a need for anything larger. The only benefit, for me, is that I could have a larger playing field for Galaxies [1] -- but that's about it.
Combine the form factor with the fact that 11.3.1 is an excellent version of IOS that is also jailbroken, and I've pretty much covered the bases for my needs and desires.
With the SE and talk of the SE2 (RIP), I was really hoping that smaller phones would catch on.
Macbook-wise, I'm on a late 2013 15", and I love it. I'm quite protective about both of these devices, as there doesn't seem to be anything comparable coming down the pipeline.

I'm on this boat too. SE and 2013 MBA user here. I like Apple much more than any of the competitors but their recent products are far away from my needs. I don't know what my "upgrade" path will be.
> Nothing they released after it makes sense to me. Too big…
The iPhone XS itself is 13mm wider than the S.
As someone who uses an iPhone 7 Plus with one hand, I'm surprised that 13mm would make a difference. I'd be curious to hear what you thought after using one for a week.
It's the screen size that matters. I can reach the top corners of a iPhone5-sized phone with ease. iPhone6-sized phones require me to strain or give up and use the reachability feature. I don't think I'm alone in this.
That seems like the hypothesis they suggest. Interesting implications.
