- Comment on Will the price of Freeze Driers go down? (USA question) 2 weeks ago:
The person you replied to said
after I had 5 years to freeze dry enough shit to trade for concubines.
and you indicated that your sister would have enough of her own freeze-dried food that she wouldn’t need to trade for it. Thus, she is safe from being OP’s concubine.
- Comment on Social media users probably won't read beyond this headline, researchers say 4 weeks ago:
Not to mention the tracking (ok, you mentioned cookie notices, but not the actual tracking) that will ultimately impact your social media feeds.
“Huh, my friend-across-the-aisle just posted something that contradicts my world view, but I’m not sure I trust that site. If I click on it, will my feed suddenly be flooded with more untrustworthy sources?”
It’s usually not worth the risk.

It’s a shame it doesn’t work on mobile.
I tried Chrome and Firefox. I even switched to “Desktop version”, but no dice.
- Comment on Why is the word "expat" a thing? 5 weeks ago:
A quick Google search says that an expat usually only lives in a new place for a limited period of time. An immigrant moves to a new place with intent to settle.
Whether that’s how it’s used colloquially is another matter…

- Comment on How I fell out of love with Facebook(2004-2024) 2 months ago:
Yeah, I definitely remember when they started showing things I didn’t ask for, and I thought “I don’t like that!”
It took a little while, but I eventually started to play “how far can I scroll before I get something I didn’t ask for?”
Shortly after that, I realized I actually had to start playing “how far until I get something I did ask for?”.
Once I realized that, I cut back significantly. I still go from time to time when I’m stuck waiting in line or something, but itbroke my daily habit. I miss what it used to be, but I certainly don’t miss what it is.

- Comment on Walmart's use of digital price tags signal the future of retail shopping, but consumers are worried 3 months ago:
So, if I grab an item off the shelf and browse around the store for a while, is the price going to be the price currently displayed or the price when I grabbed it?
If it’s the current price, what’s the point of a price tag? If I can’t actually know the price until checkout, then showing me the price is kind of a useless bit of data. I also suspect that the “speak to a manager” types would make that a major headache for stores.
If it’s the price when I grabbed it, how are they keeping track of that? I see two ways of handling that: one requires that you use their app to shop, and the other requires cameras and “machine vision” that are still unreliable, at best. The former seems more likely, but I doubt either is going to sit well with customers.
I haven’t seen that aspect addressed in any articles about the “feature”.

That’s the Mildly Infuriating part, right?
As far as I can tell from the ridiculously tiny thumbnail I have cached, it’s a screenshot of this post about renaming billionaires, followed by a post about a news article regarding starving children in Gaza.

- Comment on It took me 16 years to figure out why I hated a Journey song. What song did yiu hate untim yiu figured out why? 1 year ago:
When I went to college, I remember hearing “Don’t Stop Believin’”, and thinking that it sounded really familiar.
Eventually, I remembered that I had played a lot of the Atari game “Journey Escape” when I was younger, and that wasn’t just a weird name for a game. 🤯
