In a better world this would be caught by analytics and videos like that would be penalised - like it should happen for web search results. In reality we’re far from that unfortunately…

I’m a frequent user of that feature - especially for cases when the first thing I see from a channel is a clickbait thumbnail with a “shocked” face on it. I understand that it’s a working tactic for some channels, but unless I know the channel and can assume the video would be good despite the clickbait, I’m not going for it. It’s a trend that needs to die.

I have to draw a line somewhere. Big corporations? Yeah, those are a no go - I either avoid them altogether or try to cut off/cover the logos if that doesn’t damage the item. Bands, independent artists and others I might be directly in touch with - those I’m actually happy to support and I’m more than willing to pay full price.

But I’d also spend 2 days writing a script to avoid spending 2 hours doing something tedious.

No, I’m pretty sure it was about eating. But hey, whatever tickles your imagination…

Reminds me of the case when anon found out that very cold and very spicy foods don’t cancel each other out.

Given that they now give out loans for people to buy pizza, that’s a solid achievement.

Somehow I missed the “up by” the first time around, and was confused about who would be so bored to hang themselves.

If the cursor can go on a monitor that’s currently off, there’s something very weird with your configuration.
- Comment on Nova Launcher unashamedly inserts malware ads into your home screen now. 2 months ago:
I’m on one of the last versions from before the acquisition (8.1.1) and intend to use it for as long as I can while searching for alternatives. Thankfully my Prime key still works (email one, not Play Store), maybe the checks are hardcoded in some way.
What I’m thinking now is to get the APK and self-sign it as a way to prevent Play Store from auto updating it. I’m with a non-rooted device, this seems to be about the only way I have. I have already unchecked the auto update for it, but it still appears in the update list, and if I tap “Update all”, it would update. Does anyone have experience with this?

On a serious note, my issue with these is that they’re plastic and when they eventually fall off they’ll become litter.

Speak for yourself. You’re probably a native English speaker and have it easy.

Yeah, but 4:20 originates as a time. The problem happens when you want to put it into a date as well.
Time is the only exception where I agree that the less specific part can come before the more specific one - just because more often than not one does not make sense without the other.
- Comment on Mafs 2 months ago:
At least 1st of May is a date that can actually happen.

I remember getting ice cream from McDonald’s - must’ve been 15 years ago. It was somewhat nice, but then the whole “the ice cream machine is broken” thing started and I haven’t bothered any more. Can’t tell about the rest of the food, but I share the sentiment that if it’s getting shittier and shittier, you shouldn’t support it.

Common scenario to collect gullible people and scam them later - or just get them to like a certain page and then sell the page with the likes.
Local supermarket chain is giving away free cars, just like and comment this post. Oh, and by the way the page was created two days ago and has 15 likes - must be legit!
