- Comment on Walgreens Replaced Fridge Doors With Smart Screens. It’s Now a $200 Million Fiasco. 4 days ago:
Good. What an awful concept. A whole bunch of extra screwing around trying to keep products aligned with what’s on screen along with maintenance and running costs; just so you can piss off your customers with a worse experience and waste more of their time with advertising nobody wants.

Twist the tigers tale 10 times and get bitten.
Most creatures: don’t twist the tigers tail.
Us: …what about 9 twists…?
- Comment on "Jokes on you, I'm into that shit" 4 days ago:
I was gonna say; not a lot of other creatures setup industrial farms… If you want to survive as a plant species, making humans like you isn’t a terrible strategy.
- Comment on Will getting my drivers liscense renewed mess with my employer checking my driving record? 5 days ago:
None of the relevant information changes (DL#, your actual driving record, your identity, etc), it’s mostly just to update photo and address if that’s changed, then give you a fresh card with a new expiry date. This will have no effect on your employer doing a driving records check. May as well do it while you know you have the time available.
- Comment on What do drain unclogging liquids actually do? 3 weeks ago:
Also, adding heat can really help a drain cleaner work.
I pour a pot/kettle of boiling water down the drain, add the cleaner, wait whatever it says to on the bottle, then dump a second pot of boiling water down to rinse.

Lava is just liquid rock

You’re an electrified hunk of fat piloting a meat-covered skeleton riding on a damp rock that’s hurling through space and time.

OpticalCharacterRecognition is a pretty common practice that’s been around for decades…
- Comment on Can't install app because it isn't "certified" by the government 2 months ago:
That’s right; the Insane Clown Posse demands you register your apps with them for your saftey.
- Comment on Accounts that send a 2fa code to your email rather than using the 2fa code generator you've already setup for that account 2 months ago:
That and most accounts that use TOTP auth apps, let you bypass/disable them via email 2fa, while also letting you reset your password the same way…
Got access to your marks email? You’ve got both factors.
- Comment on How do I open something in the website? 2 months ago:
Android?
System settings > apps > Amazon > Set as default > ‘Open supported links’
Turn that off.
Or use a pc.

She’s got a Penis.

Stop looking so hard for victims to blame, Squid.
These people are probably sheltering in place but, again, they have time to kill until the storm falls.
- Comment on A rotating live feed of Tampa Bay-area webcams 3 months ago:
Until the storm actually begins to strike the area; theres not much point just hiding inside. Can’t leave, time to kill, I’m sure many public places are closed. May as well wander the beach while the beach is still there.
- Comment on A rotating live feed of Tampa Bay-area webcams 3 months ago:
Many people have no where to go, or no means to leave.
I’m not in that region, but if a similar event happened here; there’s only one place I could go besides just being homeless on the road, and that place would likely be impacted too.

There’s quite a bit of info here:
…wikipedia.org/…/List_of_Internet_top-level_domai…
Some are entirely open, some have usage restrictions like .gov and .edu, some had restrictions but later removed them.
- Comment on Work 3 months ago:
I remember doing this with a group of friends at one point. It was late at night, and we wanted to make as much noise as possible; so we were absolutely pounding on people’s doors before running and hiding in their bushes or around the corner. Wherever we could be out of sight, but still see their reaction as they opened the door and raged into the darkness.
One of my friends decided to kick one door, and managed to break the latch literally kicking the front door in… (must have been pretty weak/damaged already, we couldn’t have been more than 13yo at the time) We didn’t manage to hide in time and got chased for like 6 blocks before the guy was too tired to chase us anymore and we lost him.
(I’ll note this was not in America; firearms were not a concern in the slightest)
- Comment on What is the purpose of this plastic piece? 3 months ago:
It’s not really what the holes were made for, but there are some extension cords that have a locking feature; a pair of plastic pins moved by a lever that lock into those holes preventing it from unplugging. Handy for dragging power tools around the shop.
- Comment on Instead of having customers donate a dollar and giving them a coupon book "worth" $30, why doesn't KFC just donate those $30 themselves (or even half)? 4 months ago:
Coupons often drive sales for items that people usually wouldn’t buy themselves, sometimes even to people that normally wouldn’t shop there; then once they’ve tried something they haven’t had before, the customer is more likely to purchase that again in the future.
Then there’s additional items you add to the order beyond the coupon.
Finally there’s some rather insane profit margins on some of those items. Even with the coupon, they’re still making profit.

Reddit bills search engines for scraping the site now, and Google is the only one that’s agreed to pay.
Use another search engine and you’ll get less reddit results.

They’re Maine Coons, not ‘House Cats’
They’re just commonly understood colloquial names.
- Comment on 8 Minutes 5 months ago:
Maybe if ony one or two places are reporting on it. If all the major ‘reputable’ news sources are reporting it; there’s a pretty good chance there’s something to it.

Only if the moon is on your side of the planet at the time and not already eclipsed by earth’s shadow.
We are however very connected. That shit would be global news immediately.
