dingus,

Where did you get these pictures of me???

dingus,

I am likely asexual as well and I only had a sex related dream maybe once in my lifetime. Never had sex either, although I’m not necessarily totally opposed to eventually trying it.

dingus,

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.

I think it would be easier to go to thebank now and then to exchange some of your $100 for lower value bills than to do the opposite.

Besides, if there are places that don’t take bills less than $20, there are a lot of places that aren’t going to let you pay with only $1 bills. I can’t imagine a car dealership letting you do that. Or if you want to buy a home, etc.

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,

The real sad guy is me watching the entire thing and wishing I had 1 minute 48 seconds of my life back.

dingus,

But then it becomes pointless. If you’re both giving each other a wad of $50 for Christmas, what’s the point of doing it at all? You’re giving each other the exact same thing.

What is Something Scientific that you just don't believe in at all?

EDIT: Let’s cool it with the downvotes, dudes. We’re not out to cut funding to your black hole detection chamber or revoke the degrees of chiropractors just because a couple of us don’t believe in it, okay? Chill out, participate with the prompt and continue with having a nice day. I’m sure almost everybody has something...

dingus,

What sort of problems did you have with it?

dingus,

I would like to stress the “well groomed” part. When your beard looks like unkempt pubes, it ain’t a good look. But when taken care of, it really can do wonders.

dingus,

Best of luck, friend. I’d set up a will first if you have people you care about. I keep putting it off.

dingus,

Can you link me a to a clip or a pronunciation source that has someone pronouncing it like that? I’ve never heard that anywhere in my life. I’m guessing it’s a less common accent.

dingus,

I don’t think the web player version of Spotify seems to have that feature. Unfortunately, there are a lot of things the web player lacks, but I can’t download the app on my work computer.

When I’m at home I’m usually on my phoje on the mobile app which seems to have most features though.

dingus,

I have been enjoying it a fair bit, but I wish it was just a random shuffle and didn’t have the annoying voice interrupting every few songs

dingus,

What do those first couple of smokes feel like?

dingus, (edited )

Similar for me. I played them constantly as a kid. As an adult, I try to get into them now and then but they never seem to hold my interest anymore. They’ve lost their addictive quality for me.

What's an alternative to Spotify that doesn't play you the same fucking songs over and over?

I am in an intense love-hate relationship with Spotify. It makes good mixes for me, I have found a lot of great bands that way. BUT IT KEEPS REGURGITATING THE SAME SONGS IN THERE. I know about Song Radios and Artist Radios, so please don’t recommend those. Smart Shuttle doesn’t cut it, either....

dingus, (edited )

What is the “DJ” feature you’re referring to? I don’t see that in my app.

Edit: Found it by going to home > music

The obnoxious voice that talks to you every few songs is irritating as fuck, though. I wish it would just silently change genres instead of talking to me it’s a person and interrupting my music.

Gamers who have gamed for a long time

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...

dingus,

People are always so quick to jump on the “it’s depression” train, but it can also be totally normal for one’s tastes and interests to change over time.

I used to absolutely love games as a kid and teen. But as an adult, I just have a hard time getting into them anymore. I often seem to have fun watching people play games instead of experiencing them myself, and that’s ok too.

It’s like…after a day at work, I just want to unwind. Gaming requires a degree of effort and can even be stress inducing. So I’m just not super into it anymore. I try to get into games now and then but usually I can’t be bothered.

I mean, you’re right that for some people, it can signal depression. For others, it just signals growing older. Such is life.

dingus,

I like how an annual doctor’s visit and a biannual dental cleaning are supposed to be 100% covered by insurance.

But every time I go, I get a bill later on with the explanation that “the provider is asking for too much money for the services so we are refusing to pay the full amount”. Fuck off. That’s not how that’s supposed to work.

dingus,

I’m 29. I tried kissing a few times maybe 10 years ago. It tasted like spit and just felt mushy. I didn’t get it and I’ve never kissed since.

dingus,

But don’t “swamp cooling” systems like the one in the OP not work well in humid environments? Sure, I have running water at home, but I also live in an incredibly humid climate.

Be honest, do you still use reddit?

I used to check the front page at least once every day, and occassionally check specific subreddits. Now I don’t look at reddit unless theres some drama, like mods getting purged, then I’d go there and enjoy the drama. Occasionally there will be questions that only reddit has the answer to so I have to reluctantly use it. I...

dingus,

Yeah I think this is ultimately what I’m going to have to do. A bit annoying but oh well!

dingus,

I don’t think the “algorithm”, has to have that nefarious vibe that people think. Lemmy already has sorting algorithms…they are just shit. If they balanced it so that quantity from large communities doesn’t flood out smaller communities, it would be a much better browsing experience. Devs don’t need to mess with the type of content being displayed to us, just tamper down the volume from the larger communities. Reddit was good at doing this.
