Leave this platform and don’t come back. You won’t find a customer here, only people who hate advertisements.
- Comment on What are some good, solid cables for charging and data transfer? 1 week ago:
Love him or hate him, Linus Tech Tips recently released a line of USB cables that are built to last and clearly labelled for power and data rate at both ends. They are on the thicker side, but still very flexible thanks to the silicone jacket you seem to like. Offered as C-to-C and A-to-C. Unfortunately, they sold out very quickly and are awaiting restock.
- Comment on You need to install an extension to reject cookies in websites that use Google Analytics 1 week ago:
Technically uBlock is still an extension.
If you really wanted to block Google analytics without installing an extension, it could presumably be done via hosts file edits or with a custom DNS server.

doesn’t harm organic tissue
Which is totally why Bayer has settled their lawsuit for several billions of dollars over claims that it causes lymphoma.
- Comment on Put the shoes on 5 weeks ago:
I think this can be explained by the mentality of completely naked means I’m not leaving the house, but naked with shoes means I intend to go somewhere.

OP didn’t even make it up. It was a whole story arc within South Park this past season, so even if you could delete someone else’s comment, you’ll probably run into it again.

I’m sorry.

I don’t mean to hurt your worldview, but “Big Bird” is actually a human man in a costume.

Any other launcher support swipe-up actions on icons?

Thanks for the warning. Disabled auto update in time.

- Comment on If I go crazy will you still call me Superman? 3 months ago:
For conventional weapons, sure. But I don’t think your description fits flamethrowers, sonic, or laser weaponry.

Pretty close to zero multiplied by billions of people yields results sometimes.

- Comment on I hate it when a show gets a different actor for a main character. 5 months ago:
I was just thinking about this while watching Solar Opposites the other day. A part of me remembered that Roiland was the VA in season 1, but Korvo’s been British so long now that it’s the default when I think of the character. I can’t even visualize Roiland’s voice for the character anymore.
- Comment on BattleBit Remastered is surprisingly alive - a huge Operation Overhaul update test arrives in November 5 months ago:
And it might be the only game where I have ever enjoyed proximity chat
Did we play the same Battlebit? I don’t remember much positivity coming out of proximity voice chat. Every match started with a flood of VOIP spam of screaming and loud, shitty music. It seems without fail, I’d spend the first 15 seconds of every match muting everyone that appeared in comms. At least the devs made that super easy.
Battlebit filled the hole I needed it to while I avoided BF2042; quite fun, but the population died off and it started feeling stale.
I might look into the update when it hits, but with a worth-playing new-release Battlefield, I’ll probably just stick to Battlefield.

Add someone else stated, it’s Kari Byron of Mythbusters fame. Found this on her official Facebook page via Google image search for “Kari Byron.”
- Comment on monthly challenge 7 months ago:
While it did use the greater-than symbol, it was arranged unconventionally. The way it’s written is “500 is greater than steps per day,” meaning don’t walk too much, which fits with the rest of the author’s theme.
- Comment on Big Balls Clapped 8 months ago:
Teenager with a dumb nickname who Elon picked up as a DOGE guy. I think he was the one who resigned after the Internet found social posts in his history that were pretty racist or something. He got rehired right after he resigned.

Or “Bay Area” so people can wonder if the speaker means San Francisco, Tampa, Chesapeake, etc.
- Comment on Belkin is ending support for nearly all its Wemo smart home devices 9 months ago:
My first smart home purchase was a set of four Wemo light switches to be able to turn on all four of my backyard lights without walking around the house (wraparound backyard with a light switch in my bedroom, living room, dining room, and kitchen). They’re still working nine years later, and as long as they still function locally with Home Assistant and don’t make a fuss, I’ll keep them in service. If they stop working or give me angry ref lights, I throw in some Z Wave switches.
- Comment on Perspective 9 months ago:
Could be that there’s a door or window that’s contributing a lot of light down low, spilling under the mattress.
