- Comment on I think Doordash is changing its delivery fee after you go to check out 1 week ago:
Record your screen next time you plan on an order. That way you’ll be positive.
- Comment on 🌊🌊🌊 1 week ago:
Sure, but i enjoy not knowing and maybe being caught off guard, rather than reading every scene with a character like “is this it? Is it happening now?”
(Are scenes still called “scenes” in a book?)
- Comment on I can't believe it let me do that 2 weeks ago:
Having been with android since it’s first mainstream phones (and not rooting), a lot of those were made up non issues over the years and I’ve consistently been at parity or better with ios, with one exception - God damn fucking Google recreating their own messaging apps to be separate and worse and then shutting them down when they fail! Now with every company’s nonsense AI push you have Google replacing assistant with Gemini, which does less and their LLM is clearly the worst (hence the Google search result memes), and this messaging thing. Modern Google is the worst thing to happen to android.

- Comment on I'm a 6'1" man with size 3 feet which means every they measure my feet at a shoe store, the Brannock device gatekeeps my gender 2 weeks ago:
Assigned male at birth.
- Comment on Would it be a bad idea to show up at a protest outside a Tesla dealership with a sign that says "Deny Musk, Defund Doge, Depose Trump"? 1 month ago:
That’s what pushes it over into a threat I believe. Just using the other words would normally be fine and protected speech.
- Comment on Should parents be allowed to euthanize their children if they have a diagnosis that just isn't worth dealing with? 3 months ago:
Every kid is dying around… 15 then I’d say.
- Comment on I wouldn't stand for it 3 months ago:
I won’t speak for everyone, but the one Gen Z in my extended family calls me when he wants to talk to me. Might be coming back?
- Comment on I'm seriously proud of this 3 months ago:
Usually, you’d get your holiday pay at 1x that everyone gets and then you’d get 1.5x for working the holiday.
- Comment on Not enough people buying Premium, eh? 4 months ago:
Yes
- Comment on How do you voice chat without bothering roommates? 4 months ago:
Like the actual eggs? I would have to assume yes. That’s more material for sound to have to travel through.
- Comment on What's Mastodon precious? 5 months ago:
The way sign up currently is, probably not. It would still default to bsky.social and your average person isn’t going to think about it.
- Comment on Should i be giving a shit about my posture? 7 months ago:
Only in that direction.
- Comment on I make games and this literally happened to me this morning 7 months ago:
Considering you’re a hobbyist and probably don’t have marketing, it’s too soon to say it’s a flop. Many games like that pop off later once it gets seen.
- Comment on Burning Up 7 months ago:
If an argument is being made for one thing, Fahrenheit, it’s not relevant to bring up a different thing. Why is feet a good measurement? Maybe it’s not, we’re talking about temperature.
- Comment on Burning Up 7 months ago:
If Fahrenheit is “how people feel” then why are feet useful measurements of height when 90% of people are between 4ft and 6ft?
Those are two different things. Hope this helps.
- Comment on Pray they don't alter it any further 11 months ago:
I got back into torrenting media and using plex because of all this nonsense. I’m not watching ads on a paid service and I’m not subscribing to 6 services at a time just because every company wants their own Network+ service. I’m also not going to pay more because you decided to add ads to an existing “tier”.
Then I learned through lemmy about real-debrid and stremio/torrentio and decided to try that. Now I’ve got the equivalent to these services for much less cost and the only difference is before I press play on an episode or movie, I just choose the cached torrent. No ads, don’t even need the space on a hard drive, good quality, and almost everything is immediately available.

Get your routine cleaning. If you have a cavity they’ll tell you and you don’t have to get it filled right away.
- Comment on Why is the current temperature sometimes lower than today's low temperature? For example right now it 13F with a predicated low today of 16F! 1 year ago:
Out of context you’re right, but most of the time when you open a weather app you’ll get a more detailed view where you can see, in this example, that 29 is the high and 16 is the low for the day with 13 being the current temperature. Once you look at that one time you would know what these numbers are in this shortened view.

Thanks, happy new year.
- Comment on I got this popup ad on my TV **while watching a DVD** 1 year ago:
My Vizio has never done this.
- Comment on Restoring deleted account 1 year ago:
No
- Comment on How can I stop my keyboard from saying help instead of hello? 1 year ago:
You won’t die from it.
- Comment on How can I stop my keyboard from saying help instead of hello? 1 year ago:
As opposed to: Hello 🥺🥵🫦
- Comment on Are any self-cleaning cat litter boxes any good, or worth the money? 1 year ago:
Mine was like that, make sure you check for firmware updates.
- Comment on Are any self-cleaning cat litter boxes any good, or worth the money? 1 year ago:
Hey now, it’s only $700 where I am.
- Comment on Where can I find recipes without the author's personal anecdotes? 1 year ago:
I use copymethat.com. you can grab it as an extension in your browser or an app on your phone and then when you find these recipes it grabs the actual recipe out from all the nonsense.
- Comment on Youtube ads finally got me 1 year ago:
I believe Google is “testing” it right now, so for some people it’s been slowly escalating to where they were allowed 3 videos before it stopped them from watching anymore videos with the ad blocker enabled.
- Comment on How should I wash dishes/surfaces in contact with raw chicken? 1 year ago:
Dish soap. Washing up liquid. Whatever your country calls that.
- Comment on How should I wash dishes/surfaces in contact with raw chicken? 1 year ago:
It’s an old school thing that’s been held over by kids learning from their parents. In modern society there is no real benefit.
