- Comment on Bank of America will (stop|continue to) Accept $1 bills 1 week ago:
Honestly we need to get rid of the $1 bill generally but that’s a completely different post all together.
What do you replace them with? Coins have been tried and rejected by consumers a few times now.
- Comment on Oh no! I dropped (5£ to) Anna's Archives. Beware the mess, people. 2 months ago:
Entropy Man would be a scary accidental villain. Just random acts of chaos as they go through life until enough shit goes wrong and they become persecuted. The they learn to use their powers for revenge against an unjust society.

You look at the keyboard when you place your hands?
- Comment on It will outlive us all 3 months ago:
I go through a cheap Logitech keyboard just about once every three years. I replace them when a a couple of keys stop working or when the nubs wear off of the center keys and can no longer blindly find where my hands go.

Thank you, this is really helpful!

Thank you, I’ll look into options.

When you say email aliases, what do you mean? A lot of services strip plusses from emails now, right?
- Comment on When a magazine goes out of print and/or out of business, do the original 'master files' for each issue still exist somewhere? 4 months ago:
How does the archive.org exemption work? When is it voted on next?
- Comment on Do 9-5 jobs still exist in the U.S.? 5 months ago:
Unless you are salaried. Being salaried normally comes with flexibility but gives no guarantees for breaks and number of hours worked.
- Comment on LPT Do it. 5 months ago:
Okay, I have a question. I would love to write my papers in latex, but none of my colleges use it. Is there a way to reasonably collaborate with coauthors who only use Word and for whom Latex would be confusing and difficult?
- Comment on LPT Do it. 5 months ago:
I do this using overleaf. It’s been much easier to maintain and update since switching.
- Comment on I bought frozen BBQ eel and the best before date says LJ349. What does this mean? 6 months ago:
The name comes from the name of the person who first proposed the Julian Calendar, Julius Caesar.

What do you mean by a “dismissive parenting style”?
- Comment on Beautiful 7 months ago:
the nose is maybe strangely small, lips are a little off-putting
- Comment on Plastic tea bags 8 months ago:
I’d rather just buy loose leaf and use a washable strainer. It’s generally less expensive and higher quality too.
- Comment on Plastic tea bags 8 months ago:
Loose leaf is excessively packaged? Normally when I buy loose leaf I just get a tin that’s full of tea and nothing else.
- Comment on Anyone remember anything about 2021 11 months ago:
I’m really glad to hear that. It’s amazing how far cancer treatment has come in the last couple of decades. I hope you remain healthy!
- Comment on Anyone remember anything about 2021 11 months ago:
Oof, glad you’re still here. How are you doing now?

- Comment on Scrooge mcduck discovers bankruptcy 1 year ago:
So, now the question is which one of us has a problem.
- Comment on Scrooge mcduck discovers bankruptcy 1 year ago:
The ducks don’t talk to you?
- Comment on Scrooge mcduck discovers bankruptcy 1 year ago:
The total of all world assets is somewhere in the realm of $500 trillion. So, McDuck owns around 2,000 times all of Earth’s assets combined.
- Comment on Can't submit new post 1 year ago:
Since you investigated and found a workaround maybe it would be worth submitting an issue to the Lemmy GitHub repo.
- Comment on Panik 1 year ago:
I’d forgotten this trick. It works for large numbers too. 122,300,223÷3=4,07
- Comment on When the pizza party is too expensive, you go with the EncourageMint 1 year ago:
I kept thinking “surely this was attached to something else and they didn’t just give a mint and a few stupid jokes”. Then I noticed another one of these stuck to a locker in the background. What pieces of trash. You don’t show appreciation by saying “You are appreciated”. You show appreciation by compensating your employees for their work.
- Comment on Reddit is a shithole 1 year ago:
I wonder if Reddit could be held legally liable for trafficking in CP in that case. They were explicitly told “this is CP and should be deleted” and they didn’t act.
- Comment on higher wages for the servers... by the customers. Fnbs 1 year ago:
Biden was in the news saying he wants to get rid of hidden fees. I was surprised that restaraunts weren’t on the list of industries being targeted. This kind of fee should be illegal. It should be required to be a part of the up-front price.
Hell, I feel the same about sales tax. It should be baked in to the price you see on the shelf or menu.
