Mildly Infuriating

I visit family in other states and I get comments like "I can't believe you are so thin." For context I am a healthy weight and I eat what I consider a reasonable diet. I sit and smile while I watch them drink soda and eat pure sugar and salt. I don't care about your life choices but don't act surprised by someone that's a normal weight.

Edit: I accidentally refreshed the page and it offered alternative questions for ID validation, such as high school of graduation and SSN. But it's still absurd to expect someone to even humor the premise of the prompt.

I guess they want them to start spelling people's names correctly.

These fucking bots are getting out of hand.

Three separate places I went to at 8 in the morning. Gas station, dunkin' donuts, and then a convenience store. All of them, trash is full. People wonder why they litter in the USA, there's nowhere to throw away trash when you're out. It's unbelievable People can just go to work and choose not to do their job anymore. That people see this and they don't have any problem with it, no interest at all to keep things neat and tidy and clean. Nope.

We look forward to your next visit in Big-D and the DFW Metroplex. Please make time for the largest urban forest in the US, the Sixth Floor Museum at the Texas School Book Depository, or see our various humpback whales that live in the Trinity River.

Company on TikTok got ROASTED for posting this incredibly cringe and honestly infuriating TikTok about how there's two people working in office during Thanksgiving in the USA, and it's just the two of them, no one else is there, but they still have to come to the office. They thought they were really doing something here and going to make people laugh. But they are so out of touch with reality. Almost every other company I've heard of let's people work from home during this time, but not these truly soulless corporate shills, of course. And they had the audacity to say that they enjoy working in the office, and it's not even a good office with cubicles, mind you. It's one of the open concept ones where there's no privacy and you have to hear everyone fully....

What an A-hole. Guess he can't afford a saw.

And those damn screws.

What the shit happened to freedom of information act? Now we not only have to sacrifice our privacy to some 3rd party contractor but I must also create a fucking account in order to access information our government provides? Fuck that shit. I'm just guna make a throwaway account. Scrape the fucking site dry and upload the shit to my own website. Fuck them.

Now watch the stuff not show up until Tuesday. 😆

Edit: It did arrive today (11/22). Woohoo! Still a weird email. This was NewEgg. Amazon has done this to me as well, but they usually say it's coming early then the shit arrives on the original day (at that point "late") haha. Anyway, have a nice weekend. Hail Satan!

and because i'm a lazy ass i didn't read the specs but just read the search engine result.

I also assumed that because 6 years ago i bought a $50 hp envy and it had wifi, this much expensive one is also going to have it

Result: that $250 printer doesn't actually have wifi

And they wonder why we walk with a pegleg....

(And that "watch similar movies" thing can go to hell too)

ETA:

Jellyfin is great, yes.

There's a certain "people's republic" where they introduced a new government signature on all android apps. For "safety", as they "check" the apps for you 😉

For now it can be bypassed after three pages of scary warnings but in the future?

Maybe it could be a big reason of why they're liking harmony os that much, you don't need to manually approve android apps if android apps are completely unsupported

I've never fully understood how the 'popcorn' button on microwaves work (I've read different things that may or may not all be true depending on make/model), but my current one always runs for exactly 3 seconds too long and ever so slightly burns the popcorn.

It's not burned enough to throw it out, but it does give a noticeable "burnt popcorn" smell that kind of ruins my day.

So instead of pressing "popcorn" and doing something else, I have to stand there and watch it to hit 'cancel' in time.

Recent examples Twitch and Firefox 🤦

Red? Blue.
