- Comment on "Whatever You Get Your Podcasts" 1 week ago:
For now at least you don’t need accounts to subscribe (I use Focus Podcasts from f-droid to manage my podcasts) but I wish more podcasters would self host and have no doubt that eventually Podcasts will end up behind the paywalls.

Did you wait for them to turn red? I did and they were crazy hot even after removing all the seeds.

But to be fair Ender’s Game was written in 1985, before the modern internet.
- Comment on Okay now what if I show you this image and tell you it's an actual conversation between me and my brother? 1 month ago:
Not really an argument against baths, but most of the bathtubs I’ve had as an adult were too small for me to comfortably bathe in.

I always though that was about talking on the phone or using it while ordering.
But I do feel it is rude to be on your phone while at a restaurant with other people.

I went to a restaurant in Arrowtown yesterday and the POS asked for a tip. I’ve seen it a couple other places too but usually the worker hits no before giving it to me.

- Comment on The enshitification of Meetup.com 11 months ago:
If there are over a certain number of participants it tells me I have to pay to see the rest.
TBH it’s been going downhill for the last couple years since they made groups pay a yearly (I think) fee. There used to be all kinds of fun free groups but it’s slowly becoming only sponsored groups or pay to attend meetups.
- Comment on The enshitification of Meetup.com 11 months ago:
They already made it so you have to pay for meetup+ to see meeting attendees or message anyone but the organizer.

To weed out people who scrutinize the scam. The same reason scams often have misspelled words. They want people who will react quickly without thinking too hard.
- Comment on Being an already decided voter in a swing state is swell 1 year ago:
I’m not in a swing state but I still get a decent amount of political spam. It’s mostly random PACs sending clickbait texts asking me to donate. Every so often I get a text from a candidate running in a completely different state and wonder where they got their lists.

to: Dr. Jækel Hydensen and Family would be better in English.
We sometimes send things to “The Hydensen Family” but that does seem to assume that the heads of the family have the same last name.

There’s a place near me called Just Salad that has several posters on the windows stating the sell more than salads.
- Comment on stacked 1 year ago:
My cousin couldn’t understand how I bought groceries after I sold my car. After telling him I walked three blocks to the store he asked how I bought groceries in winter. I told him I put on a coat and boots and walk three blocks to the store.

- Comment on "Maybe even sleep a little, if I'm lucky." 1 year ago:
I was put on the 24th floor of an office building with a desk facing the window while the company I worked for renovated our 10th floor office. It was really cool, there was a small hawk that liked to hang out on the window ledge and I had a nice view. When the renovation was done I was moved back to a cubicle with only florescence lights.
