  This isn’t the doctor’s office. They have to use this crap for regulatory reasons.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Here's the scoop⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:

  Yup. On Amazon, always do three things:

  • Sort reviews by most recent, go to the end, and make sure the reviews are for the same product snd it wasn’t switched (report it if so)
  • Search reviews for the brand name, skip AI garbage and see how many people say it or are Vine reviews
  • Read filtered on critical reviews

  While that could be the case, I’m putting money on “I should really post this from an alt.”

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What would this list look like for your generation?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Percentage of young men is increasingly right wing, unfortunately. Economy/costs is usually not the driver for the young, it’s community, perceptions of confidence and strength, and attitude towards sex (once old enough, but much younger now than it used to be [in the US]).

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I'm jealous⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I hate this thing. Love our local market, but they use these and it’s so annoying to have soggy everything.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What do office workers actually do?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Typey type, typity type type.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Reminder if you're leaving Discord for this Revolt server ( Linux + Steam Deck devs / creators)⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Thats fair, but simly using FOSS software doesn’t support the cause of the developers/creators. I mean, look at Lemmy.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Reminder if you're leaving Discord for this Revolt server ( Linux + Steam Deck devs / creators)⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Uhh this is a reach. By this logic so is Signal. And RedHat. Hell, even Mastodon.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Reminder if you're leaving Discord for this Revolt server ( Linux + Steam Deck devs / creators)⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  No thanks. One more centralized service to enshitify. Will stick with Matrix.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨To whom it may concern⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I read this as you wrote it: “its farts”, like the envelope has farts, vs “it is farts”. Both are technically correct, but seems so much funnier that way.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Choose a number, 1-5!⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  You cannot know the answer without seeing the underside of the forks. How will you know if they correctly conform to the curvature of your thumb and/or fingers.

  One of the best gifts my partner got me was completing a set of cutlery I had grown to love via eBay and other random shops. How she found decade old stuff in mint condition is beyond me.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Cozy video games can quell stress and anxiety⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I switched to Reader Mode. So annoying.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Cozy video games can quell stress and anxiety⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  That page was made for Firefox’s Reader Mode. Sheash.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Zoom is down 🎉⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Hah, I was trying Zoom yesterday and thought it was my PiHope causing DNS issues. Nope.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨woag⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  This is one where the visual impaired text should also reveal the joke

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Limited edition orange juice mint condition looking for trade⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m going to make trading cards.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨As a US citizen who was born in the UK, how risky is it to leave and reenter the US right now?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  And Brits (relevant to OP). But they had the wrong visa.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Hmmm⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  You can post screenshots of tweets no matter when they were taken or how old they are

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I don't know who needs to hear this, but DO NOT EVER expose Jellyfin to the internet⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  The linked post is from 2021. Many of the items were already closed. This looks like fear mongering.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Today's Survey. One point for everything that you have NEVER DONE⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Yuuuup.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨They said the packaging would be discreet!⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Maybe, but not based on the sign. That’s a standard trucker joke about waiting for pumps.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Good to exercise at home instead of gym?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  For me, the hardest at-home part is the motivation. It’s so easy to “skip”. Finding things like pre-plans or games like Zwift on a bike trainer help, because it sets my schedule.

  I also found it handy to pick an audio book, podcast, or show I liked, and only do that while working out.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨No more Bosch for me..⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Yup, all his top video comments said this shortly after video release. Personally, I always check for this stuff pre-purchase, but if I ran into it now, I would return unless I specifically bought it to self-host and block internet, which you can do with Bosch, but I wouldn’t, because for a dishwasher that’s dumb.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why do we even do mens vs womens sizes for clothes?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  You must be man. 😀

  Me too, but I also sew, so: Different types of clothing fit women differently based on size. And I don’t mean body shape fit just being slightly different. A “small shirt” can have a million different lengths which could reveal midriff based on bust or Shoulder size. This is impacted by curves but is a total dofferent measurement.

  And wait until you realize that people are sized different in different countries other than America.

  The best solution would be to remove sizes altogether and create a standardized measurements sheet that is required to be included on clothing sites or tags. Or at least an international standard. It’s done in engineering, why not in textiles?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What is happening with Tesla (TSLA) stock currently? 📈⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s because Mark Robert said he was still buying a new one after driving his through a wall.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨3's grip looks the most comfy⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  The real question: Is that Pilot G7 a 0.10 or a 0.7? Very different pens. 0.7 ftw

  Incorrect.
