Listen I can’t prove it, but I swear on my mother it does

Brother it takes 3 minutes to boil water in the microwave. I have done this without fail.

It cools down much faster though. Not sure how that works.

Ban kids making up dumbshit challenges and attempting them?

They also need to move truck headlights lower to the ground. There’s absolutely no need for them to be eye level.

How do you get links to open in-app?

Given lawmakers that understand how the internet works, I think it would be. To me this isn’t any different than a handful of years back when ISPs were throttling websites to give an advantage to the certain ones that paid them to work faster.

Wouldn’t they need to already have your data to check your driver’s license against it?

I think you are entirely missing the point of this comic and misunderstanding the rules of the pictured intersection. There’s a reason these were outlawed in my state (michigan). They are a dumb way to direct traffic, the “stopping room” you’ve circled is not meant for stopping in, or else there would be far more space there, likely an entire lane of room. I’m not suggesting making blind turns. You are not supposed to proceed without visibility or merging room, hence why the stopped line of cars in the middle lane have the right-of-way as they are blocking your view of that and possibly the traffic behind them, which the person at the front of the line has almost no way of knowing. You stop in the middle then you are still blocking them for as long as it takes to merge into traffic now that you’ve got yourself in this situation.

It just does not make sense to do it that way. If you can’t make the turn left then you turn right and find somewhere to turn around, which is how our roads are designed from the jump here in michigan.

Anyways, this is a really stupid argument and I’m really not interested in continuing it.

That is not what that excerpt is talking about, that is talking about a road with a middle turn lane.

The road pictured here has a median which cannot be driven over, generally there’s a kerb and it’s usually just grass on top. The center part is not for stopping in, it is only for driving through. You should not proceed unless you have a clear view of traffic from where that car is sitting on the left. In some cases there will be a white line to stop there, and in that case that is okay, but that is not what is pictured here.

There is no middle lane here wtf are you talking about

Yeah this is the only legal way to turn left in a road with a median like this in michigan. You have to turn right to turn left.

Are you telling me my mom is full of boobs

Well they actually don’t write that realistically, these are copy and paste bots that are just trying to farm karma so they can later sell the account (which I’ve heard is a thing apparently?). You can see the left is all original accounts by the uniqueness of their usernames and the copied posts on the right are all reddit generated names.

Yeah reddit has a name generator that you can choose from when you create an account and that’s the format it uses. Those names are almost exclusively bots and throwaway/anon accounts

Session buddy was a big one for me in college when I had an overwhelming number of tabs open but didn’t want to forget about what was on them. Basically just archives all your open tabs to a single page you can refine and look back at, so you can quickly just close everything and start fresh without actually losing anything meaningful or cluttering up your bookmarks.

The marvellous suspender helped prevent those tabs from using so much memory. Chrome hogs enough memory as it is lol.

I have one called tab manager plus which looks handy but I honestly forgot it was there before I ever actually used it lol

Agree. Excel is terribly inefficient if your goal is just storing data.

On the other hand I was genuinely torn between the pixel 7 pro and the pixel 7a when I lost my Pixel 5 because I wanted the pro features but the smaller size of the 7a. Ended up getting the pro because the size wasn’t so far apart to make much of a difference, both were massive anyways compared to the 5.

But I bought second hand open box so maybe I’m not in the demographic that matters to Google.

man I just miss being able to type and reach all corners of the screen with one hand without having to be a contortionist or accidentally clicking on the one-handed keyboard that I never actually use because I’ve already resigned to always using two hands anyways

I’ve since realized that you can turn off the one handed keyboard completely but the fact that it has to exist at all still annoys me

Never heard of stations before today, wish I got a chance to try it though. Looks like it came out just after they removed the radio feature from the main app. Damn…

I tried Pandora, I think for a year or two. It’s alright but after a while I started falling into the same artist bubbles I experienced with post-radio Spotify. It’s owned by Sirius which isn’t doing so well (and I can’t stand their marketing practices) so I can’t imagine they’ve got as much resources to devote as Spotify. The app is a little buggy and rudimentary but not completely lacking polish.

The behavior when your Internet drops out (like if you happen to go driving out in the sticks) leaves a lot to be desired, but you can save playlists so it’s not a huge deal. There’s this one live version of a song that just does not want to stay deleted from my playlist. Oh, and you can’t use it outside of North America without a VPN. It’s little stuff, it’s not experience-breaking for the most part.

I do like that you switch between different algorithms for a radio station. Something like “fan favorites”, “artist only”, “deep cuts”, maybe one or two more options. It’s overall not a bad alternative, the bad parts obviously stick in my head better than the good but I’d probably still be using it weren’t for my European friends all using Spotify and sharing songs/playlists with me like that.

Nah I’m not talking about stations, I’m talking about radio. It was like, the main feature of Spotify for a while.

The “radio” you can make nowadays isn’t a radio at all, it’s a static playlist and a lot of the times the playlist it generates is just 50% ripped from my listening history, resulting in artist bubbles that for me have proven impossible to escape. Same deal for the music they generate when a playlist ends. A bunch of playlists paired with an algorithm that doesn’t accept feedback simply cannot fill the role that was the original Spotify radio.
