I remember on reddit once someone from the US complaining about people assuming their bar had EFTPOS machines/pay wave saying "You wouldn't go to the grocery store without your wallet?!"

And me, in Australia just being like...but... I do? I almost never take my wallet with me to the grocery store...

(Although, because my student public transport card is the only thing I can't put on my phone, going out for drinks is one of the few times I'm almost guaranteed to have my wallet) (also because I want to have backups if something goes wrong while I'm inebriated)

I needed to see this, just in general, today

If you gave me 1000 chances...I would not have guessed the end of that headline...

Thanks for letting me know that that community exists! It's one of my favourite subreddit so there being a Lemmy alternative is great news!

Is that the stuff that comes in a little glass vial?

I emailed MSI support to get a new hinge for my F key. They repeatedly told me the entire keyboard needed to be replaced. After several days of back and forth, and me assuring the support person that, no I just need the key hinge, and that yes, they could just send me the hinge and I could fix it myself, they relented.

Took 30 seconds and didn't mean that a perfectly good keyboard be trashed.

I would set myself on fire for Aaron Purr if he asked. And he probably would, the little asshole.

I mean, Colin Jost has a lot more than modest good looks...

When I was more active in ED spaces, shows like these were really popular. I watched a lot of Supersize v Superskinny but didn't really bother with the others.

Came from a starved mindset where I so obsessed with food and weight that I only wanted to watch stuff that related directly to food and weight.

There was also discussion in ED spaces I was in about how the stuff that these shows were doing was unhealthy and fucked up but had been deemed entertainment and therefore permissable. But us doing similar stuff was (rightfully) seen as fucked up.

I want to stress that no one in the communities I was in was ever judging the contestants. The only people we were viewing negatively were the producers who were putting people in danger and also like, ourselves.

I'd also really recommend the New Zealand and Australian versions! (NZ Series 1 takes a bit to find it's groove but Series 2 is probably my favourite series of any Taskmaster)

Sorry for the over enthusiastic reply, this morning my friend got us both tickets to the Australian Series 3 studio record and I'm very excited about it...
