How would you clean one of those? It seems impossible to get at.
- Comment on Mom's phone has Twin Peaks in it 1 week ago:
Background apps typically don’t take up memory/CPU on modern mobile OSes.
- Comment on sorted bins 1 week ago:
God, this reminds me of when I used to disable the shortcut icon on the actual icon in Windows. Fucking annoying.
- Comment on you know what pisses me off? ads on wikipedia 1 week ago:
just let me read my articles in peace.
Your articles? This sounds really entitled.
- Comment on *Proceeds to append an exclamation mark* 1 week ago:
The FBI training I’m forced to take at work suggests replacing characters in that manner. “Just use a $ instead of S!”
But back in like 2006 I brute forced a dump of 20 Windows passwords in that style on my old Dell single core machine in less than two seconds, and every time I’m shocked people still think this is secure.
- Comment on Moralizing scarcity 2 weeks ago:
I went from being a typical omnivore to vegan within the span of a week and it was the easiest thing I’ve ever done in my life. So when I see people resorting to eating insects it’s really bewildering to me. Like, you’d rather eat bugs than just eat plants?
- Comment on Trump emails be like 2 weeks ago:
Yeah I know that OP didn’t sign up. I’m saying why would the people that believe the premise even sign up? It’s like signing up to go to jail (extreme example).
- Comment on Trump emails be like 2 weeks ago:
If you were to actually take this at face value and believe it (imagine!) wouldn’t it be better to not be signed up for these kinds of mailing lists? I don’t understand how the premise here would be convincing to someone.
- Comment on a majority of republicans hate democrats (themselves) enough that they're willing to nosedive an entire democratic nation into theocratic fascism to get to their self-appointed enemies. 2 weeks ago:
Great, exactly what we all came here for: to hear your “giant shit” thoughts 🤮
- Comment on Burger King breakfast sandwich- no scrambled egg? 3 weeks ago:
I’m in the US, where are you? They definitely do not crack eggs for the McMuffin, the eggs come wrapped and shaped already.
- Comment on Burger King breakfast sandwich- no scrambled egg? 3 weeks ago:
As a former McDonald’s and Burger King employee I assure you that Burger King doesn’t have the
faketotally real liquid egg you’re looking for.But also, both companies are crazy unethical and cause unnecessary animal suffering so I’d recommend not frequenting either.
- Comment on Realistically, what do people plan to do on the Moon and Mars that requires a permanent, or long term human presence there? 3 weeks ago:
I didn’t get the idea from the movie, I’m talking about how time passes differently depending on the pull of gravity; and that’s why I kind of alluded to this being theoretical at best. I don’t actually think it’s feasible to find an enormous planet just to have time pass more quickly.
- Comment on Three-quarters of UK’s popular plug-in hybrid cars unable to use rapid chargers 3 weeks ago:
I’m really not familiar with the technology but can the cars and chargers not negotiate power delivery? This is a solved problem in the USB-C world and I can’t imagine that these chargers aren’t smart enough to do this.

Isn’t 2G absolutely terrible for privacy if you are making calls?

getting 10,000 Einsteins in the future by expanding in the solar system
This is incredibly random but I’ve been wondering lately what might happen if we colonized a place where comparatively speaking time moves much faster than on Earth.
In theory you could bring back years of advancement in a shorter timespan, but this is obviously just a pipe dream.
- Comment on Is it okay for a teenager to suck their thumb in public? 3 weeks ago:
No but the two factors together (fresh account + crazy behavior) is a strong signal. I don’t always block immediately but it really just depends on the level of crazy.
- Comment on Is it okay for a teenager to suck their thumb in public? 4 weeks ago:
It turns out that I have that one blocked too.
- Comment on Is it okay for a teenager to suck their thumb in public? 4 weeks ago:
These new accounts are too much, if I see a fresh account with just 1-2 posts like this I just block.
- Comment on He's right, you know 4 weeks ago:
This kind of inability to accept others’ point of view is why I don’t connect with people much anymore.
When I was younger I had lots of friends who had differing opinions and we had the openness to say “that’s fucking stupid” with each other, explain why and still remain friends.
These days you can slip up just once with a minor non-conforming opinion and people become completely unhinged. And I simply can’t take only talking about surface level topics anymore.
- Comment on Dealing With An Aussie Phone Company 4 weeks ago:
What about my comment led you to that conclusion?
I’m more curious if it’s normal in other places to even have people from the carrier just casually texting customers.
- Comment on Dealing With An Aussie Phone Company 4 weeks ago:
Is it normal for carriers to text their customers?

Could this post be titled a bit better?
- Comment on It was cold this morning. You all know what this means. 5 weeks ago:
For me it’s Santa Baby or whatever the hell it’s called, that song is just totally creepy.
- Comment on Happier to use spices on tofu, beans, soy curls, and even sometimes the dreaded processed plant-based mock-meats (when they go on sale). 5 weeks ago:
I never liked chicken nuggets until going vegan, lol. The plant-based ones are amazing.
- Comment on I did nazi the rest of the tattoo 5 weeks ago:
I thought it was the Enron logo at first glance
- Comment on 5 weeks ago:
Honestly any website that’s so sketchy it needs to disclose its 14 trillion “partners” is automatically on the shit list from the start. These shouldn’t even be normal.
- Comment on sharks 5 weeks ago:
I study languages for fun and though English can be grating at this point (native speaker but typically in a Spanish/Mandarin environment) one thing I’ll give it is a lot of words do sound like what they mean — and though I’m surely biased as a native speaker there are some words that are just very satisfying:
- boom
- crispy
- crunch
- tap
…probably a lot more I can’t think of.

As a web developer we almost always store times in UTC, we simply convert it to the user’s time zone while displaying it. I prefer to use the browser’s time zone when doing this, but it could also be a saved user preference or even determined by figuring out the geographical location of your IP address (not a fan).
