  Pretty sure that you get the benefit of the doubt if you had a feasible reason for adding/changing something about your food.

  For example, you could add a laxative to your food/drink and be totally in the clear as long as you labelled your container with your name and maintain that you’ve been constipated. It’s a totally valid reason, plus it was labelled with your name so there’s no reason for anyone else to be consuming it.

  I used to use that for ages, but the constant ads made me uninstall it

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Lay them on me⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I think they were more likely referring to how when the public eye is on something many companies will start churning out low-effort products to capitalise on the interest. The market would be flooded with cheap and inferior products in that niche, potentially threatening the smaller business that actually cared about making quality products for those hobbyists. I know this won’t apply to every hobby, but there are definitely a number of them that will.

  Craving carbs? Nah, you just need nitrogen. Just breathe some air, bro.

  What even is that chart?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Locked in⁩ ⁨⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m a zoomer and I also have no fucking idea what this is

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨An achievement⁩ ⁨⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Gotta back up that claim my dude. Not everyone knows what everyone else has done.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Amazon "search through reviews" is blindly just running an AI model now⁩ ⁨⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m in the UK and it doesn’t work for me either, even after changing my question 4 or 5 times. It’s probably region-locked.

  Definitely! We all as a community need to clean this place up, just as clean as Ajax will make your home! Buy today!

  Not to mention “I hear what you’re saying”. While objectively true, it doesn’t mean that they understand or give a shit in the slightest. I have a very argumentative family member that says that line ALL the time, and all they really want is to get you to shut up so they can say what they want to say.

  I’m really surprised it managed to keep the order of the letters mostly correct

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨If only it was like that⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  25C is the point where I start feeling sleepy because it’s so warm.

  If you think 25C is optimal then I’m curious as to what your “comfy sleeping temperature” is?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Aliens decide to communicate with us⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  You make it sound like you have a fervent hatred for ~250,000 people.

  I’m intrigued…

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨NASA has some explaining to do⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Conveniently forgetting the “God exists within all of us” schpiel that they made up as soon as we went to space and found nothing there.

  Definitely either parody or very stupid.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Just speak normally⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ve only ever heard “to” as well, never “til”. Although the latter does make more sense, the former rolls off the tongue a lot easier.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Hate these with every ounce of my being⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I have skipped through every single mandatory interactive training thing I’ve ever been assigned and passed the quiz at the end using basic common sense. Every time.

  I swear it only exists for the bottom 1% of the workforce who are, in this day and age, are somehow dumb enough to still fall for email scams that have been around for longer than I have.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Senior Citizen Sex⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  What a terrible day to have eyes.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Are phone notification LEDs still a thing?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  The Sony Xperia IV series came out late 2022 and that still has a notification LED and a 3.5mm jack. The newer Xperia V series removed the LED but still has the jack.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Could we use AI to update 4:3 media to 16:9?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I was more referring to how changing aspect ratios is a bad idea, not that using AI to do it would be a bad idea.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Could we use AI to update 4:3 media to 16:9?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I remember watching a great video about why this isn’t a good idea.

  Here it is.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Airplane that seems stuck in the air⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  It moves but still seems way too slow. Perhaps there’s a really strong headwind slowing it down?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨It's just that easy.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s satire.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Windows: we noticed that you kept the useless search bar disabled since 2015, so we sent an update that re-enabled it without your permission⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Yes, not everything needs to work. But everyone needs the things they want to work, if that makes sense. In other words, everyone has different requirements.

  I require SteamVR to run acceptably in order to play VR games on my main computer. I have yet to find a distro that satisfies this requirement, so I must use Windows since it is the only thing that works for that use case.
  Conversely, I do not require VR support on my laptop. Everything I want to do with my laptop can be done to an acceptable level with Linux, so I run Linux on my laptop. Simple.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Windows: we noticed that you kept the useless search bar disabled since 2015, so we sent an update that re-enabled it without your permission⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Some software unfortunately requires it. Yes, Wine/Proton exists, but it doesn’t fix everything.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is there something like F-droid, but for windows software?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I tried Chocolatey first, but ended up using Scoop after a while. It’s been years so I can’t remember why, but there was something about it that annoyed me enough to make the switch.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is there something like F-droid, but for windows software?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Oh, for sure. I do like using FOSS and Windows is my primary OS (for game compatibility reasons), but I’m saying that the number of Windows users who care enough about FOSS to seek out an F-Droid equivalent is very low, which is likely why nobody has bothered to build one yet.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is there something like F-droid, but for windows software?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Windows users generally don’t care as much about using open source software, so there isn’t really an audience for such a place.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is there something like F-droid, but for windows software?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  For me, Scoop feels faster and I also don’t have to remember/find the package name of what I want to install.

  If I want to install Everything, I just type scoop install everything. I wanted Everything, it installs Everything. Easy. If I try winget install everything, no. I have to remember the author as well and type winget install voidtools.Everything. It’s just a bit annoying.

  Plus, I know where all my software is with Scoop. Windows installers love flinging files all over your system, but with Scoop they’re all in the apps folder. It’s not always the case, but I trust Scoop apps to stay where they are more than Windows installers.
