• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Other than a faulty charging port, is there any reason to use a wireless phone charger over wired?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I have a wireless charger by my bed for charging overnight, it’s easier to just plop my phone on the stand when half asleep rather than fumble with a cable. Also, charging speed doesn’t matter because it’s going to be plugged in for a few hours when I and it’s easy to grab when my alarm goes off. But when I need a quick charge, then it’s a fast charge cable all the way

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is Severance the new Lost?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  It could be in a sense of how much it is loved/discussed, and the fact that it is appointment tv like Lost was (which is not really a thing anymore making it even more impressive!). But Severance seems to me a much more consistent and well thought out show that is well planned/leading somewhere (not in circles like Lost did). Yellowjackets feels more like Lost to me, the seemingly aimlessness of some plots, the weird supernatural bits thrown in to confuse, the lack of answers. I also get the same feeling watching Yellowjackets that I did watching Lost near the end - hate watching just to see where the ridiculous story goes and if they can even have a satisfying ending. Severance feels like things happen for a reason, and they have the ending figured out but only time will tell

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is there a less stinky way to cook broccoli?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I usually give it a very light coating of olive oil so that it’s gets extra crispy and the spices/seasonings stick, but I am sure you could do it without it, and it will still work

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is there a less stinky way to cook broccoli?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I love it in the air fryer, similar to baked broccoli, just a bit more crispy

  Speaking as a Canadian, there is also some much arrogance and ignorance about things outside of your country that baffles my mind (not from all but from a large portion of the population). American exceptionalism and decades of really effective propaganda that has gotten increasingly more unhinged from reality and crumbling education system probably isn’t helping either. (I don’t mean that as an insult, every country has issues, and we were very good neighbors and allies until recently)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Do they make a TV device or dongle to connect quickly via a number of types of inputs?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Does it need to be plugged in? There are some really great phone casting/mirroring apps that do the job well

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Realistically... How fucked is the US?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  There are less adults/competent/people with any morals in the room now. Swap John Kelly and some of the slightly more upstanding members of his inner circle for RFK Jr and some of the worst of the worst

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Pray they don't alter it any further⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I totally agree with you about YouTube, I am tech stupid, too. I watch it every day on multiple devices, and it’s worth it to pay for it just to make life easier

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨If a universal basic income started today with the stipulation that you had to put 40 hrs/wk towards making the world a better place or solving societal problems, how would you spend your time?⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I would do my current job for free with people who need it but couldn’t afford it (massage) think seniors, sick, disabled ect. Also, spend time working with animal rescue/shelters in some way

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I have to pay extra to remove ads from Prime Video⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Greedy pigs, they can’t help themselves anymore. I swear it went up 20 or 30% in the last year or two, and now this. Does anyone have recommendations on where to find stuff if you are tech stupid with no computer (only a Roku TV and android phone)?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Maybe this isn't proper shopping but $18.50 for four veggie burgers, buns, and danish seems like a lot⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Ugh, you will be driving for quite a while if you live on the west half of the country. I wish we had them in Canada as well, groceries are insane up here.Image
