Just went down the aliexpress rabbit hole again. Theres really everythinf for some of really niche things that i wouldnt ever buy, but some things really do look appealing. I wonder what do you guys use daily thats worth lets say under $20
milwaukee fastback with screw driver attachment. I’m no contractor and use this thing all day everyday. Primarily as a knife but the screwdriver has came in clutch countless times. You can get a two pack for under $20
Last time, I used: “Anybody need anything while I’m out?” and that went over well. May not make it through this surgery on Friday, so I turn to Lemmy for top-notch suggestions for my potential last words!
My best line was when my wife tried being funny and asked “did you turn the stove off?” My response was “no” apparently and she actually called her friend to go check. I was just trying to rile her up like she was trying with me.
Mine is people who separate words when they write. I’m Norwegian, and we can string together words indefinetly to make a new word. The never ending word may not make any sense, but it is gramatically correct...
We are English speaking and as someone raising a kid it’s really difficult at their age to teach and explain all the words that are spelled the same but can sound different. She loves to learn so I try my best. I wrote a sentence down that she likes to show people and read to them just to start but always asks why it is the way it is.
“My daughter liked when I read her a book the other day so I make it a habit to read 1 book a day with her”
That’s the sentence she’s practicing. There is a lot more to get through though.
This is my biggest gripe with lemmy. A MASSIVE amount of links I try to follow is just paywalls or so damn bloated with garbage it isn’t worth the effort
do you find it difficult to get into games? I’ve got Epic Games and Steam Games libraries chock-full of classic top-tier games along with many other newer games like Stray or 2077, and a bunch of indie titles. I just can’t be bothered to download and install them, much less try to get into the characters and storylines. Used...
I spent countless hours playing games and getting excited as hell with new launches or even just getting on. Nowadays I play maybe 1 or 2 games a year and If I actually finish them it’s very rare. I could blame a busy life but honestly there’s just no spark and I could speculate for hours why but truthfully I don’t know why.
Idk what it’s called but my wife makes this chicken and pasta that uses parm garlic sauce and its 10/10. I know my issue is we make it then I over eat it which results in me hating it for a while and then the cycle repeats
Nah, the chicken is slow cooked with the parm garlic sauce, cream cheese, some other kind of cheese, then some rigatoni. She adds a few other things as well.
Here’s a link be warned though it’s loaded with ads so have a blocker on
I use to torrent everything until Netflix and as competitors began popping up it was fine as it was convenient but now I can’t keep up with what’s where. Had to dust off the hat and learned to set up a server for jellyfin. I tried being fair but they got greedy
If you look what happened with pooh I’m guessing we may see the same thing happen here. There will definitely be testing of the waters on what people can do
Ask Lemmy is a place to ask thought provoking questions. The mods have been lenient with some of the recent posts on the basis that they must provoke thought for some people, but after seeing two posts essentially saying “what do you think of my stick?”, I believe we can raise the bar a bit on what kind of thoughts we want...
No it isn’t. They’re trying to make it a place to ask genuine question not to just goof off with silly things. They’re just defining it a little more which is absolutely necessary.
Exactly plus they’re more likely to know and hear things about products. What tradesmen hasn’t stopped and talked a person ear off about their go to stuff and why it is. There’s plenty of tradesmen who know less than the person at the store as well.
I know we all don’t want to accept it but the truth is this will work. Until whales stop existing things like this will be around. These companies are forcing advertisements in every part of our lives and now they aren’t even trying to be sly about it.
What cheap tool/gadget do you use that greatly improves your daily life?
