• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What should I do if my girlfriend doesn’t listen?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  She sounds like someone who doesn’t know how to deal with negative emotions. My bf is like this. He wants to make me laugh to cheer me up when I’m sad or depressed. He’ll just change the subject or make jokes when I talk about serious thihgs.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Do you cheat in games?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Nah, never did it. If I’m not good, I stop playing at some point, unless it’s fun enough that it doesn’t matter.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Trend of websites blocking old versions of Chrome -- is this sensible?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  What I’ve noticed is that, when I can’t log in to a site because I’m using a “wrong” browser, if I just keep trying, it’ll eventually let me in.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why does the microwave button have a "popcorn" button when every microwave popcorn brand says "DO NOT USE THE POPCORN BUTTON"?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  This is exactly what my experience has been, although I still have the “add time” buttons. Don’t forget that half the buttons are inaccessible unless you have the door open. I have no idea why anyone would design a microwave this way.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon tries being social⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ve never done this to a friend or had a female friend do this to me, but so many guys seem incapable of dealing with feelings of disappointment without destroying a relationship.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Bent Reality Locality⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  This looks very cool.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why do we need legal genders at all?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  This matches closely with my own experience.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Myth in Meditation⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Gorgeous.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Alia Domus: a pixel art survival RPG about rebuilding humanity on an unknown planet. Demo now available⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  This sounds really cool. Is there multiplayer?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Can I break my sense of taste?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Try chewing Aleve.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Indonesian wildfires threaten leading orangutan research site in Borneo⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Oh no! But so cool that they have the medical technology to treat them.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Men jailed for 'serious incident' outside Bristol airport⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Did they coordinate their mustaches?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why does most of the world use WhatsApp as their messaging app rather than RCS/SMS?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Some VoIP plans still charge per text/call. It’s cheaper if you don’t use much.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Employers ditching health coverage⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t understand the connection, tbh.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨On 9/11 what was the internet like after it happened? Did people quit being dicks or trolls and showed some decency? Or was it like we have today and nothing changed?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  It destroyed my friend group. One person was angry at basically all Arabic people, and her racism started lots of fights. I couldn’t get through to her, and didn’t know how to handle it. Everyone had a different reaction. We all just stopped talking.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ve noticed that modern shells often include a wifi status monitor but no way to view your network connection if you use ethernet.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨One In Five Drivers Switches Off The Safety Tech Meant To Save Their Lives⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Backup cameras are nice. Everything else listed is potentially troublesome or just unnecessary. I don’t even know what driving mode is.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨That's just science⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Same.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Phone and OS Recommendations⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Furi or Fairphone?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Wildfire phone alert was 'entirely appropriate', government says⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  It is common for an abuser to take away a victim’s phone, shoes, car keys, medication, etc in order to control them and make it difficult for them to leave.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is it just the norm now-a-days for grocery stores to have lots of stuff on the shelves that's past the best-by date?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s always been common at certain stores. I don’t shop at those places. It does seem to be spreading, though.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How to deal with people who obtusely miss your point on Lemmy?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I would try to clarify what I meant by re-wording it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Swirling Abstract Storm⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Amazing.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Foresight Familiar⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  This is awesome!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I usually have my hair wrapped when I go outside after washing it. Never met anyone who cared.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon tries dating apps⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I love walking and hiking, but having to walk uphill takes me out, too

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Should I donate sperm?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I knew someone who had kids using donated sperm. Her husband wasn’t able to father kids because of a physical problem. I think she got to pick from a book of donors. She chose the same person for both of her pregnancies so her kids would be full siblings. I don’t remember her having anything negative to say about it. It seems like a service that’s useful for people in her situation.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What gaming console you owned disappointed you the most and why ?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Bonk’s Revenge was so much fun, though.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What gaming console you owned disappointed you the most and why ?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah, I loved Streetpass so much.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What gaming console you owned disappointed you the most and why ?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  The Switch, because it removed all the cool features the DS had.
