My parents still have cable. The buttons are backlit, they turn on when you pick it up and turn off when you set it down. There's also a mic button you can hold down and talk to input text by voice instead of typing on a virtual keyboard with a dpad. Not rechargeable but two AAs last for a year so why bother with a battery that eventually fails and renders the remote useless?

Even basic remotes are pretty clever now

Survival rates of a heart attack are upwards of 90% from what I can find online. There are certain types where the survival rate for that type alone is much lower though.

Potatoes are famously incredibly rare and only keep for a few hours after being picked so I can totally see the purpose of a product like this

She tested positive for heroin, not THC. If she was actually actually heroin, child protective services involvement would absolutely be warranted.

The issue here is the erroneous test and complete failure on the part of the hospital to confirm its results

Except Reddit bans you if you so much as suggest someone stubs their toe. The rules against "advocating violence" have become so broadly interpreted in the last few years.

Lemmy is significantly more tolerant of this kind of posting
