  I would take a CRT in a heartbeat. It makes watching 4:3 content feel right, especially older Star Treks.

  Last time I ordered something off of Amazon the delivery driver did not even attempt to deliver. On the 3rd day amazon sent me a notice saying “if we miss you again we are sending your order back” (This was a mission critical device that only sold on amazon at the time)

  I watched the amazon delivery truck drive right past my fucking house without even fucking attempting to stop. I ran barefoot in the rain a block behind the van and asked them to deliver my fucking package.

  They gave it to me, but I’m still fucking pissed about it.

  Dont quote me on this but having a 2nd job would disqualify them from Medicare, which appears to be their only form of health insurance.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon lives on a budget⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  You still have not disclosed the quote “serious financial options”, and as an autistic person who is not able to deduce conclusions based on breadcrumbs all you’re doing to me is withholding information. So, congratulations I guess. You made your point while filtering the disabled.

  Are you going to share the knowledge with the class or keep it to yourself?

  its so funny that it must’ve Mandela-ed my memories to make me believe I had seen this yesterday. and last week. and the week before.

  your username… Do you have any similarly named relatives on here? 🤔

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Me and Grandpa, we believe⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I dont disagree with you there, the theoretical “we” refers to the entire lemmy shitpost community. I only responded to you because i wanted to make a point to the people who agreed with you, but upvoted that post (Im assuming there is a large enough overlap that someone wouldve thought about it)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Me and Grandpa, we believe⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Im confused about where we’re drawing the line, because this slop from yesterday in this same community had 500+ upvotes

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Screw your zodiac sign, tell me..⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  There are other sources but the reason I linked corelle directly is because they admit that pre-2000s plates have trace lead amounts. They use weasel wording sure, but it says it.

  Are Corelle® products lead-free?

  … Corelle was first introduced by Corning over 50 years ago and in 2000 started to be manufactured by the company known today as Instant Brands.

  … Before 2000, and before tighter lead content safety regulations, a small amount of lead was an ingredient in the decorating process of many household products.

  There are other sources, but most of them are websites ive never heard of. Figured corelle was the easiest source to link.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Screw your zodiac sign, tell me..⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  just a PSA for those of you unaware; these plates up until 2004 contained lead paint. If you’re using these plates, uh. dont. Use them as decorations or get rid of them immediately.

  Source (check the FAQ for the question about lead)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The moment we've all been waiting for: you now can have targeted ads on your 2k smartfridge⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Picture this; A stereotypical couple in their mid to late fifties. Their fridge just broke, and they need a new one ASAP before their food goes bad. They go to the closest appliance store and browse. The salesperson gets commission on sales and really tries to sell them on the most expensive fridge. This couple does not keep up with the latest consumer rights violations, same as most people. The salesman convinces one of them that the Smart fridge is exactly what they need. It keeps track of when their food will expire, gives reminders to use up ingredients, has timers for cooking, and comes with an app for recipes. The other person is not convinced but they agree to buy it anyway to make their partner happy.

  They get it home and it’s okay at first. It does what it’s supposed to. Then one day, they get an ad for Apple+ which they canceled a few months ago. It mentions one of their names. How were they supposed to know this would happen? Did the salesman inform them of the advertising capabilities? Did it say it on the box? Realistically, this happens way more often than you would think. It’s punishing your friends and family to insult them for not knowing better. We should be pre-emptively teaching them about these practices, not bullying them. Bullying them will only reinforce their purchase because thats how human psychology works.

  Relavent XKCD:

  Panel 1: I try not to make fun of people for admitting they don’t know things. Because for each ‘thing’ everyone knows by the time they’re adults, every day there are, on average 10,000 people in the U.S. hearing about it for the first time. Fraction who have heard of it at birth: 0%. Fraction who have heard it by 30 ≈ 100%. U.S. Birth rate ≈ 4,000,000/year. Number hearing about it for the first time ≈ 10,000 a day. Panel 2: If I make fun of people I train them not to tell me when they have these moments. And I miss out on the fun. P1: Diet coke and mentos thing? What’s that? P2: Oh man! Come on we’re going to the grocery store. P1: Why? P2: You’re one of today’s lucky 10,000.

  Here’s a good writeup of why Brave is an option that really should be avoided: www.spacebar.news/stop-using-brave-browser/

  The only problems ive had with Librewolf have been from poorly designed edu websites (think college textbooks with shitty DRM). Most websites function just fine.

  Ill also throw IronFox on Android and SnowHaze on iOS into the mix for non-desktop users.
