I wish fucking supermarkets would understand this. I don’t have to be told in a super loud fucking annoying voice that I need to place the object in the bagging area, or switch to the other machine to use my card. I’ve already hit the fucking button to use the cc machine, you fucking nonces! I’ve already placed the goddamn stupid fucking bananas in the stupid fucking bagging area, shut the fuck up! AAAAAH!

It’s even worse now because you used to be able to mute the mother fucker, but now they’ve disabled that option.

And then group c proceeds to grab the first dish with some flippant saying about it being no big deal. It’s not just weaponized incompetence or avoiding any help at that point, it’s being an asshole. Living with others that don’t have cooperation as a goal is a nightmare.

Not a clue. They got it from inside of one of the big box stores or grocery stores, so I guess from one of those little kiosks they sometimes have.

Well, he doesn’t care that facebook tracks him, and you apparently don’t care that youtube sorry, google tracks you.

The faces training was all of the filters. Every single time someone took a video or picture and used filters to add cute moe eyes, or make themselves look like a crab, it was being used to make whichever company was doing it have a better bottom line or to accelerate their facial recognition.

There was a service that only charged if the phone was used that day. A family member of mine would turn on their phone once a month, check messages, make a few calls, and then turn the phone off until the next month. I think they were paying about $2 a month.

Let me know, or make a big post if you solve it. I haven’t played Bannerlord since switching to Linux and don’t want to dive into a quagmire quite yet.

You’re fighting the wrong war, man! Trees don’t use bullets, they have BETTER weapons! Look out for the gimps! THE GIMPIE!

What are ya talking about, brosef? That’s a great design! We’re engines of warfare, and in warfare machines, ya gotta have redundancy! More redundancy! And spread the vitals around, make sure a stray pinecone launched from a big 80 foot enemy war machine above ya doesn’t take ya out! The trees are coming!

Shoot, you better get a few kids (until at least one’s a girl), and ask them if they think mommy and daddy like each other.

I’m sure the priest can teach how to close lips.

That’s strange to me. I remember, and still think of, amazon as a marketplace. I bought used books and video games as my first purchases, waaaaay back when. You would have to sort out the prices and compare them to the listed ‘condition’ of the purchase, trying to figure out whether ‘like new’ condition was worth the $3 price jump over ‘good’ condition.

It’s not quite as mandatory as it can get. The FCC has made rumbles about actually kicking carriers off the networks if they don’t adhere to the shaken/stirred protocols, but never seems to get around to actually doing it.

The best explanation (ever) for a sovereign citizen is found in a legal opinion by a Canadian judge. He spends about 176 pages delineating their beliefs, origins, and manner of interacting with the legal system.

Oh. Oh, you poor innocent soul. Sometimes I wish for the days of fancy and wonder to come back to me. You keep thinking the best thoughts!

Have you tried LibRedirect? It works for quite a bit more than just youtube. I personally love it for the fandom mirrors.

I didn’t know donut or pho restaurants made their own dough. It probably varies by location, though. I’ve seen some donut places where the boxes of shipped ready to make product were stored where customers could see it. It blew my mind how much they had on hand in order to not run out.

Odd. I find it to be the exact opposite. If I want a real article, with thought put into it beside how to make it pop up as #1 in the search engine, I need to set the most recent date possible as prior to 2015 (sometimes even further back).

I suppose it depends on what you’re looking for. News articles obviously have to be recent, and it’s relatively difficult to bullshit your way into an informative news piece. Advice or DIY instructions though? You better search waaaay far back.

Maybe MY experience is limited, but what manager these days isn’t pulling double duty? They do 3/4 of the job time with duties no different than the people under them, and also have to do all the managing part when possible. This is how it’s been in the public service, retail, and customer service jobs I’ve worked.

You forgot that before the Egypt thing, there was a Jewish-to-be man (Abraham) who randomly left his home (Ur) and extended family to go be a shepherd. Shenanigans ensue as he gets multiple wives (who hate each other), multiple kids (who hate each other), and does kooky shit with his new surrounding folks (and oh, they hate each other).
