- Comment on Let my Duolingo streak expire cos I don't want to give them any more AI training for free and this popped up 🙄 1 day ago:
Duolingo isn’t in the business to teach you a a language, that would mean you won’t need the app anymore.
I’ve used Babbel, it seems more to learn a language, but it requires a paid plan to use. It does work more like an actual language course though, with more emphasis on longer sessions instead of 5 min per day.

I like your meme because it discourages other people to try it.
Huh? You just said the meme is relatable and if you do go camping and this happens you could do a ‘goddamn, I should’ve known’.
It’s hard enough to get permits for certain trails!
Ah, so you’re just selfish

- Comment on Cox charges you $25 if your credit card is declined 1 month ago:
I really like SEPA mandates for this. Yes, they’re pull, but you can cancel them with one click within 52 days, and the money is back in your account in a few hours (if not instantly).
Most companies that use it are very clear, since auto-pay by law needs a reminder or the refund is an automatic legal cancellation of the contract. (Of course, this is sometimes disguised as an upsell, mostly by telco’s or “disruptive startups”).
And they work across Europe, so my German cloud provider can use debits to pull the money from my Durch bank account.
The US not having such a consumer friendly system is really unfortunate, but not surprising.

Also, I wish my urologist had believed me when I said I wasn’t numb for my vasectomy.
I was undersedated for that one too. Hurt like a mother, but I never realised I may be under sedated so I just challenged through.
No issues in the end though. Just a firm reminder to ask for a double dose next time.

They should really be weighed against the current side effects associated with the hormonal pill.
Off the top of my head (not a doctor!), these include: depression, nausea, headaches and a myriad of others.

Arguments mate, or you are just wasting our time.
So far you’ve only voiced your transphobic opinion, that’s not how a good dialog is started.
Arguing with you is a waste of time.

It’s unclear what the fuck it’s about: a shitpost.
Don’t know why Lemmy Shitpost is all politics now. It kinda ruins what I came here for.
