Pros: price
Cons: the watch doesn’t work and now you have lead poisoning
I can smell this comment, and now I have even more microplastic in my blood.
I have no idea about the site itself, but having the domain registration showing as private isn’t necessarily a red flag in itself. I do it myself to avoid spam, and it’s a free service offered by many registrars.
As someone else commented, however, if it feels fishy you’re probably correct.
That’s fair. I’m certainly not against the concept of drinks with sugar alternatives, but for whatever reason the only one I actually enjoy is Fresca.
It’s the “no sugar” part that I find the most blasphemous.
Classic Lemmy user, bringing not one but two laptops to a live show.
Given that I mostly play heavily-modded games, a run is usually “complete” when it is abandoned due to its inevitable TPS death.
Right? At this point I’m just sticking with WordPress because I can’t be bothered to migrate a bunch of sites off of it. Every year for the past decade it’s felt jankier. Tumblr’s backend has to be a dumpster fire for this to seem like a good idea.
My criticism aside, WP still has the convenience factor of being the open source web platform that has a plugin for just about any need. Whether those plugins are gonna break for site or introduce interesting new vulnerabilities is a different discussion.
I’m more curious as to why “$1.00 Drinks” costs $3.30.
I think “legalese” might be close to what you’re describing. It can still be ambiguous, but it seems to be our best attempt at avoiding that. Some forms of technical writing may also meet your definition.
If you ignore the first W it reads to me as, “Fart Free Water.” That’s actually an attribute I like in my water.
I love this, but also found it hilarious - especially the towel as a helicopter blade trick and your description of it being “very undesirable for the fly.” I’m picturing your partner or housemate sighing and being like, “there they go again, herding flies.” I can definitely see it working though.
It’s funny to see you comment here because I was literally coming to this thread to mention that I see you in seemingly every comment chain and thus consider you “Lemmy-famous.”
Who wore it better: this black metal vocalist or Humpty Dumpty?
I used to wear pants that tight when I was a young man, but that’s when I had the body of a stick insect. His continuing to rock that look well into his beer belly era takes some balls (which we can pretty clearly see). Kudos to him.
I’m assuming we’re just talking about metal albums, given the community.
Here’s my top 3:
Trees of Eternity - Hour of the Nightingale
Draconian - Under a Godless Veil
Swallow the Sun - When a Shadow is Forced into the Light
Doom and related genres have always been my fave when it comes to metal, but I used to also listen to a lot of thrash and power metal. These days it’s pretty much all stuff that is doom or goth-ish.
“The first thing that they said to me was, 'Oh, you’re going to have to pay a 30-some-dollar NSF fee for this bill not going through,” said Martin.
This is the kind of shit that feeds into the privatization crowd’s agenda. The same thing or worse would likely happen if this were a private business, but it will nonetheless work as fine ammo for people shouting about government red tape.
A tiny bit of customer-service training could have turned a negative story into a positive outcome had they immediately reverted that NSF fee and done something else to make the situation right (like a sizable credit on her account for the trouble).
I don’t remember where I first read it, but there’s a concept in business where a problem can become an opportunity to make a positive impression on a customer. If you consistently shop at the same store and have no issues, you’ll be happy but won’t think much of it. If one day they screw up your order and then go above and beyond to make the situation right - that’s what’s going to make a real impression. It’s that interaction that you’re going to share with your friends or maybe even write a review about. If the business treats you well, you’re going to likely leave with a more favorable impression than if they had never made a mistake in the first place. If they don’t, you’re never going to shop there again.
Obviously in this case the customer is dealing with a monopoly and has no choice in the matter, but government workers should be trained to a better standard about these things. People need to see that a government monopoly for something like this is in their best interests. Stories like this tell a very different tale. I guarantee a private monopoly would be much worse, but since at least the 80s the right has pushed a concentrated agenda that government = inefficient and outliers like this feed into that.
Good to know. I’ve only been using Proton for like 4 months now and have thus far generally liked the experience, but that’s too bad about your experiences with the Drive client. I’ve used several paid business suites over the years through work and they all have their issues though. The only one that was generally solid was Google’s and I’ve gradually taken steps to remove their products from my life so there’s no going back to them for me. It was also almost 10 years ago since I last used Google’s paid email/Drive, so maybe it’s also gone to shit.
I’ve actually meant to try that but haven’t yet gotten around to it. I’d still love an official app though, as sometimes 3rd party solutions don’t work great with cloud storage (at least in my experience).
I start to get weak and fussy if it’s 12:30 pm and I haven’t had lunch. Assuming I get lost in the woods after breakfast that means I have a good 3-4 hours to find a settlement before I drop dead of being a little removed.
