I was gonna say I think I liked reddit more before the digg folks came. Maybe Lemmy is right where it should be.

Tried to order pizza but it got Noided

That’s a wild time to invest in phone booths!

Real answer is dialup modem speeds. Doubled our download (in my case, from 10 minutes per mb to 5 minutes!)

Wait, so you do or do not remember the excitement of going from 14.4 to 33.6 for dialup?

Places I worked when I was younger, it was just one of the jobs of the courtesy clerks, along with bagging and filling some things to the shelf. Even in a really busy store, I think there’d be a ton of wasted time if someone was doing only carts.

I like the idea that there’s some shift that’s just getting carts all day.

“Sorry, Johnson, people haven’t left enough carts out lately. We’re letting you go.”

Using “bis” for toilets is funny, like you’re grinding a raid at the hardware store hoping for an epic toilet drop.

Spotify supports this already (between any devices you’re logged into), and it’s suuuuuuuuuuuper nice. This is gonna be an excellent QoL upgrade.

On a related note, does anyone know of cases with a headphone jack built into it? It seems like an obvious thing to make, but I’ve only seen them mentioned for iPhone.

The main thing for me is simply that the audio connector doesn’t pull out nearly as easily as USB-c. Secondary is the fact that I prefer things that don’t need to be charged.

I use wireless buds at work, but whenever I’m home, I prefer to use wired headphones. It’s definitely a different strokes for different folks situation.

Chicken just isn’t gonna need to be that precise. It’s not an ingredient that mixes with others in that way. That being said, chicken is an item that most recipes would mention by weight. Nobody is going to actually weigh out the chicken; they’ll just go with a close measurement, or use potentially use the packaging it came in for reference.

I think they mean concepts like morning and evening, or day and night would remain. The difference would be that in London, midnight would be 12:00am, but in San Fransisco, midnight would be… 16:00 / 4:00pm. Each timezone would have to adjust the numbers, in the same way the southern hemisphere considers January to be in the summer.

Not at all a solution, but worth mentioning that in a YouTube URL you can replace /shorts/ with /v/ and get the normal player for the same video.

That’s a different situation though. A green arrow means you have full right of way to make the turn. Right-on-red is more like a stop sign.

Man, I just didn’t get Little Inferno. Glad some folks enjoyed it, maybe I just didn’t understand what to do really? Oddly enough, the theme song pops in my head sometimes.

I’m using a set of klipsch 4.1’s as we speak, and used to drive them with an Audigy 2.

It also has a light mode now. I know that was a drawback for some folks when it was first being mentioned.

I read that any NPC/Quest that required this before will now be visible to living players. I think in the case of the BRD one, the NPC will himself appear as a ghost to living players.

That actually makes a lot of sense to me. Such a large portion of how we communicate is in our body language, I can see how stripping that out would leave someone scrambling a bit in that situation. Thanks for sharing!

I wonder if it’s just because it feels less natural, and therefore forced, as if you’re having to perform.

When I was young, I had a lot of anxiety over calling things like businesses, doctors offices, places where people had an official role. It felt intimidating. What eventually got me past that was remembering that though these people are in an official capacity, they’re also people who can joke and make mistakes and ramble and get confused, just like me. Once I stopped seeing them as their capacity, that feeling kinda went away.
