wheeldawg,

This is even dumber than the morons who think any plate that’s days “private” has any hope of passing any kind of check.

wheeldawg,

I mean you can just say NFL in general. Ruins a good chunk of the year hearing about it during work discussions.

No, I will never care about a sport, and especially not overpaid assholes who play it for more money in a couple minutes than I will ever make in years, or more in one game than I will ever see in one place ever.

If I had a genie I would change culture so sports got moved to the same category as politics and religion so you’d never hear about it if you weren’t around scumbags.

[Discussion] How do you feel about age verification on Porn sites? (lemmings.world)

Porn sites Pornhub, XVideos, and Stripchat face stricter requirements to verify the ages of their users after being officially designated as “Very Large Online Platforms” (VLOPs) under the European Union’s Digital Services Act (DSA)....

wheeldawg,

I mean I love tabs, use em all the time. But currently my computer has just 1 open.

I don’t use em as bookmarks to get back to. People seem to just hoard them. And for no reason.

You can’t tell me there’s a good reason to keep hundreds open. It’s just laziness at that point.

wheeldawg,

Exactly. I cannot comprehend people with dozens of windows with thousands of them. How do you find literally anything at that point?

I usually close all, sometimes if I start a long video I’ll keep it open and paused until I come back to watch more of it. But that’s just one, and just because that site won’t remember where I left off, and I don’t want to memorize what the timestamp is. I will have to refresh the page to get it to resume loading the video, but I can remember the timestamp for the 2 seconds it takes to reload and click back to it. But I’ll forget if I have to come back hours later.

Is there a Spotify alternative that has no ads?

I pay for Spotify for 7 years or so now and i'm so sick of all the ads. After every update there seems to be an: oops, sorry, you have ads now. Podcasts are filled with ads. I was just listening to a podcast where they shoved in 3 ads mid-sentence. How long until musicians put ads in their songs. I'm just so sick of it.

wheeldawg,

It’s also getting shut down this coming year, so it’s not a great suggestion.

wheeldawg,

Unless they’re talking about ads that the podcasters themselves at to the recording. They’re not all inserted by whatever platform you get them from. This is what they’re referring to.

wheeldawg,

Well if you’re using that username for that instance…

wheeldawg,

If this some light mode joke I’m too dark mode to be able to read?

wheeldawg,

Honestly don’t think it’s universal, but most of the time, yeah.

wheeldawg,

That acronym sounds familiar, but I haven’t heard it in years. Totally forgot it existed.

wheeldawg,

But I am.

wheeldawg,

Oh shit he’s starting to turn evil.

I suggest you count REALLY carefully here.

wheeldawg,

The first time I saw this a sub teacher showed it to the class.

wheeldawg,

Fuck I wish imperial would just disappear. Metric is 100% better in every single way, bar none.

wheeldawg,

This post is the first time I’ve heard of the movie.

wheeldawg,

I don’t recall the name of it, it was not a big Hollywood movie or anything, and it was super low budget.

But it was some old Christian movie about what will happen to you if you don’t get “saved” before the Rapture happens. I remember a song called “I wish we’d all been ready” playing. Not sure if that’s the name of the song, not even positive it was actually in the movie at all, or if it was just something I heard around the same time and the memory is getting blurred.

From what I recall, it looked like it was made in the 70s.

I wish I remembered more about it. It was intended to scare the shit out of you to believe in religion. Worked on me at the time, I remember praying like a million times to make sure I did it right the night I watched it, and randomly at times for years as I remembered the scared-shitless feeling.

Religious trauma is a hell of a drug.

I kinda wanna watch it again now that I’m older.

wheeldawg,

I skimmed through some of it. It looks right. I remember very little of the movie itself, just the feeling I got.

I checked the song at the end and while it wasn’t the song I mentioned, it triggered the same reaction in my head.

I’ll try to watch it tonight just to see how bad it actually is. Hopefully shut that part of my brain up at long last.

Thanks for the tip.

What's the point of buying new phones every years?

Other than your carrier give it for free or cheap, I don’t really see the reason why should you buy new phone. I’ve been using Redmi Note 9 for past 3 years and recently got my had on Poco F5. I don’t see the point of my ‘upgrade’. I sold it and come back to my Note 9. Gaming? Most of them are p2w or microtransaction...

wheeldawg,

I got the pixel 7 last year since my old pixel 2xl was out of security.

Well that and the battery was terrible and it was sluggish as well in general and a screen crack that didn’t affect functionally, but was annoying af. Still have it around as a spare device to go back to if this one has an issue.

wheeldawg,

I use the word like that too. But not as a customer arguing with a business. Just with friends and family as an in joke.

Funny to hear it used that way but for srs.
