dingus, to asklemmy in Getting braces as a young adult?

Yeah, I don’t mean to say that it’s a total scam…just that it’s ok to want to weigh your options to see what is worth it and what isn’t. Especially because braces ain’t cheap. And if someone doesn’t want it, then it’s appreciated to stop harping on them about it every single time.

I honestly have no idea what model the toothbrush was, but it wouldn’t surprise me if it had that sort of feature. Nice to have for some, but not something I seem to have a need for.

Yeah, I had to switch dentists because of a move, and my current dentist won’t stop recommending me braces.

“It’s not just cosmetic. It will help the functionality and longevity of your teeth.” I mean, my teeth aren’t absolutely perfect, but they function and look fine to me. I have only ever had one other dentist mention that as a suggestion forever ago when I was a kid, and they didn’t keep harping in about it.

It makes me super suspicious about it because the last dentist I had never mentioned a thing about braces, and my current one keeps bringing it up unprompted. My current one also tried to sell me a $300 toothbrush.

Get a second opinion.

These are all beautiful photos, but you keep posting them in the wrong community.

This reminds me. At work, I’ve had to help during rapid consultation procedures for surgeons while they are performing a surgery. It involves you cutting tissue microscopically thin with a very sharp blade within this specialized machine.

Well one day I am cutting and cutting and I just can’t get anything to work. It’s making a mess and fucking everything up.

I look down and realize I didn’t even have the blade in the machine lmaooo. I was trying to cut with blunt metal. What a goober move.

Brain farts happen!

Idk. I’m not in IT, but I’ve always seemed to have a tendency to try to troubleshoot tech problems.

I help out my coworkers, parents, and even my younger sibling on occasion (he’s in his early 20s). If it’s solely an age thing, then you’d think I wouldn’t be doing it with those similar to my own age or younger than me.

At work I even figured out why our headsets (vital to our job) would intermittently fail and stop working, absolutely destroying our workflow. Our IT department couldn’t manage to figure it out. But I eventually found that it intermittently conflicted with a program on the computer (Microsoft Teams).

I’m absolutely no genius and my knowledge is probably rather minimal. But I think it’s a difference in attitude and affinity for the stuff.

Lmao what

dingus, to lemmyshitpost in One possible caveat of using an open source search engine alternative instead of Google

Why do you think that ended up as the top result?

One of the reasons why I don’t want to use a password manager, actually. If you get locked out of that, you’re fucked.

dingus, to nostupidquestions in Gasoline is liquid but gasses on the periodic table of elements are fumes, so why do we call the stuff we put into our vehicles "gas," if it's liquid?

That’s actually super interesting! I thought it would have been technical, but it looks like it just comes from someone’s name!

dingus, to lemmyshitpost in So, we gotta trick the rich into letting us eat them.

Can you explain for an ignorant person? Because to me it sounds like they just cannibalized someone.

dingus, (edited ) to memes in Which pill do you choose?

I’m not really understanding why you’d need to convince anyone of anything? Why would you need to tell anyone you went back in time? All you need to do to become rich when going back in time is to memorize a winning lotto ticket or to invest in something that you know will make it big. Why do you think that you’d need to convince people you aren’t crazy or whatever you’re saying? Legitimately curious.

With going back and time, you could both become rich and change things and events from your past that you regret.

dingus, to memes in Which pill do you choose?

Well I’m not able to make friends or relationships now so that but wouldn’t make a difference lol

dingus, to asklemmy in Is Sync for Android worth the cost?

You’re being down voted, but now you’ve got me legitimately curious…

Would anyone out there be able to explain what sort of additional features Sync has they makes it worth the price? I’ve been a Voyager (formerly weed) user practically since it was created and I think it’s a great experience.

dingus, to asklemmy in What's the best music streaming service?

Yeah I have over a thousand songs in my Spotify playlist and I’m constantly searching for and adding new music.
