As someone that struggles to sleep in a room with any light; this sounds awful.

What in the fuck are you (un)packing that needs 64+ threads???

I can’t think of a place more deserving of a mass-shooting than this room.

- Comment on Streaming Viewership Surpassed Cable and Broadcast Combined for the First Time Ever in May, Nielsen Finds 4 weeks ago:
Live sports is one of the only things that still makes sence to have live tv for. Pirate sources for live games is difficult; but I’m not much of a sports fan anyway, so that’s never really enticed me.
- Comment on Streaming Viewership Surpassed Cable and Broadcast Combined for the First Time Ever in May, Nielsen Finds 4 weeks ago:
I haven’t had a live TV service in at least 12 years. I had traded it for Netflix, back when it was the king of streaming services; but that went to shit and got replaced with Emby/Usenet a decade ago. Haven’t paid for media since, baring the very very occasional theatre visit.
- Comment on Well stars are no longer visible anyways 1 month ago:
If I ever look up at the night sky and see a billboard shining down at me from space (literally or through some kind of mind/vision altering tech like nuralink) I’m becoming an anarchist.

That’s why we gave them minecraft.
- Comment on Unsubscribe page that crashes when you try to unsubscribe 2 months ago:
I’ll try the unsubscribe link, if that fails I’ll directly email addresses like contact@company.example, info@, support@, service@, hr@, admin@, abuse@ requesting I be removed from their mailing lists.
If all those fail (I’m still getting spam later), I whois lookup the domain and send a complaint the listed abuse address for the registrar. That typically goes through AWS who follows up asking for the email source headers to investigate.
It usually ends there.

Maybe, but the homeless crackhead shambling through the lot at 3am like a zombie doesn’t give a fuck and will kick that thing as hard as he can muster.
Move it anyway; at least it will have a chance instead of painting a massive target on it with those cones.
- Comment on WhatsApp now lets you block people from exporting your entire chat history 2 months ago:
Just what people need; a false sense of security…
You don’t need an export button to save copies of a chat. Even if screenshots are blocked and you’re not running an OS that lets you bypass that, you can always take photos/video of the screen when all else fails.
Once you’ve sent data, it is no longer in your control. Messages, emails, posts, files, replies, encrypted end-to-end chat applications, all of it: Don’t send it if you don’t want someone somewhere to keep a copy. Maybe they did, maybe they didn’t; it’s no longer in your control once it has left your device.

Interesting question; let me consult with my advisor for just a moment…
- Comment on Am I going crazy, or has people's spelling gotten awful lately? 3 months ago:
I make a ton of stupid spelling mistakes just because of typing on mobile 99% of the time. For some reason I CONSTANTLY miss the keys I’m looking for, or manage to press them in the wrong order somehow; swapping Ns with Ms, T with Y, R>T, B>N, inserting spaces too early, doubling up characters.
If i nevsr look up and jus tkeep typing, I end of with a garbled mess just liek this sentence is.
This can get much worse if I use the next word suggestions. I’ll spot the suggestion I want, but continue to press the next letter; this changes what’s being suggested, or just moves it to a different position (centered vs the two options to the side) but I still press where I first saw it which is now a totally different suggestion…
Lots and lots and lots of proof-reading. And I STILL fuck it up.
- Comment on Why do people insist on not answering ALL the questions in an email or text message? 3 months ago:
- a single answer fits all the questions asked
- answering one question will make the others irrelevant.
- it’s not obvious there are multiple questions (usually down to formatting, or skimming a block of text)
- the person’s just in a hurry, at least answering one is better than ignoring entirely
- Comment on This is a shit post. 3 months ago:
Lmao. I’d only scrolled far enough to see the top half, paused and though to myself; “you could probably calculate how fast that shit was going, using the speed of gravity as a reference.”
Then a scrolled to see it had already been done…

Sentry mode records to local storage. It’s pretty difficult to recover data from a pile of ashes.

- Comment on The gentrified forest near me removed the bins. .. From their café/picnic area 3 months ago:
Ah, I see. I was picturing the typical standalone postbox that you deposit letters to be mailed in.
- Comment on The gentrified forest near me removed the bins. .. From their café/picnic area 3 months ago:
This has been a solved problem for decades. Animal resistant bins have been standard in parks for ages.
Just one of literally hundreds of examples: cbc.ca/…/bear-proof-garbage-bins-made-in-lethbrid…
the cafe will gladly take your garbage
Maybe they will, maybe they won’t. Either way, I’d have to wait in line or skip ahead+interrupt staff and the waiting customers instead of just putting the garbage that I was given into a provided bin out front.
I agree with the concept of ‘pack in, pack out’, if you brought it to a site, you take it back out with you. But If I go to a location and am given garbage while I’m there, I expect there to be somewhere I can dispose of it. I’m not packing more home than I brought with me.
I’m also not saying there should be bins all throughout the forest; just in this context where it’s effectively a food court, not providing a bin is ridiculous.
- Comment on The gentrified forest near me removed the bins. .. From their café/picnic area 3 months ago:
Or… You could just put a bin where the public can use it.
This is stupid.
- Comment on The gentrified forest near me removed the bins. .. From their café/picnic area 3 months ago:
Going from OPs description as the sign doesn’t show the area.
Obv the let situation is a little different if OPs not being honest.
- Comment on The gentrified forest near me removed the bins. .. From their café/picnic area 3 months ago:
That’s just a hassle for the postal service and people sending mail; they undoubtedly have nothing to do with this. (tampering with mail is also a felony…)
- Comment on The gentrified forest near me removed the bins. .. From their café/picnic area 3 months ago:
No, which is why it’s stupid to take bins away from stores/cafes.
- Comment on The gentrified forest near me removed the bins. .. From their café/picnic area 3 months ago:
Japan takes the garbage bins away from cafes?
- Comment on The gentrified forest near me removed the bins. .. From their café/picnic area 3 months ago:
Or 3) change the garbage regularly on a bin with a latching lid. (common in forested areas)
This isn’t just a random bit of forest either, it’s near a shop that’s providing the public with a bunch of disposable items like paper cups and napkins. Not providing somewhere to dispose of those is inevitability going to lead to people leaving their garbage behind.
- Comment on The gentrified forest near me removed the bins. .. From their café/picnic area 3 months ago:
It’s a cafe area; they are giving you trash with your meal/drink, not providing a bin for it, then expecting you to pack it out.
Expecting people to packout the garbage they brought with them is one thing (that still doesn’t get followed); but if you’re going to provide the public with trash, you’ve gotta give them somewhere to dispose of it.
