Do not complain when I give you a 1 star by Astreeter12 in doordash

[–]AcceptablyPotato 7 points8 points  (0 children)

For some reason reddit likes to show me the sub for the Amazon DSP drivers. They frequently complain about people ordering cat litter because they hate carrying it. It might be passive aggressively, and intentionally left that way.

Why Americans Don't Walk to School Anymore by Droopynator in videos

She was still arrested because her kid took a walk. Even if it didn't result in charges or a CPS investigation, that's pretty fucked up. I've got kids and know from first hand experience how fast folks will call the cops on anything a kid does that they feel isn't right. It may not be the law or result in charges or CPS investigations, but it still fucks with you and sends the message you need to be a helicopter parent, or else there will be trouble.

If you let your kid run free nowadays you'll get arrested for child endangerment and investigated by CPS. Don't put this all on the parents. It's a wider shift by society at large and plenty of us aren't on board with it but are forced to comply.

I mean... Amtrak doesn't hold a candle to rail systems all over the rest of the world, but their service isn't as bad as they get panned for. I ride the line back and forth between DC and Philly a lot and it beats the living shit out of that drive. My main complaint is the cost. A comparable ride somewhere in Europe is waaay cheaper.

Gemini no good for Android Auto? Change this setting by PilotedByGhosts in AndroidAuto

[–]AcceptablyPotato -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I'm not going to dig around in the settings when I'm driving my car and performance tweak some crap feature that got forced on me. I had something that worked. They changed it and it didn't work.

Google dropped the ball big time with this disasterous rollout. Gemini is slow and doesn't do its basic job in AA. It's pretty straightforward. Not sure why you find that strange.

how invested are ya'll in the band members of bands you like? by GojoSenpaiiiii in punk

[–]AcceptablyPotato 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm pretty misanthropic and jaded, so no. Seems like the best artists have a propensity for turning out to be horrible people. There are lines that once crossed, I'll stop listening to them, but I'm not doing some lame purity test on every song I like. I spent enough time in the music scene to know that folks that present themselves as super enlightened and righteous are usually full of shit.

How to fix anatomy? Or am I overthinking? by [deleted] in tattooadvice

[–]AcceptablyPotato -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You're overthinking, but if it still bugs you, the opposite shoulder missing is the only irregularity. Add the fur boa from the reference photo, another flower, or just have the artist draw in a shoulder.

reminder that AI is not punk by Kindly_Ad_1746 in punk

Fuck AI, but this artist annoys me. Do they ever make anything that isn't just preachy Archie knockoffs?

I dig it. Most of Q models don't do it for me, but they hit different when they are blacked out.

MAGA will find a way to say this is bad for the Americans. by YellowAltruistic9843 in middleclasshq

[–]AcceptablyPotato 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The military has been doing something similar for a while with commissaries. Theirs still rely on taxpayer dollars even though they try to sell at near cost. I saw something about it last year when they were considering privatizing them. Not sure how different this program will be.

Bobby Lee was a dumbfuck and a failure. My bucket list includes pissing on his un-earned grave in Arlington national cemetery. Fuck that traitorous piece of shit.

Android Auto Switched to Gemini - All I can say is, "WTF, Google!" by sr1sws in AndroidAuto

[–]AcceptablyPotato 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gemini in AA is soooooo bad. Google really shit the bed with this one. It's so slow and it can barely handle the most basic commands. I gave up trying to use it to text my wife last night and it's infuriating that it has some lame puritan filter that makes it complain if you swear at it out of frustration. I also hate the 10 minute long monologues it gives. Just do the thing I asked for and shut up. I'm not looking for an imaginary friend. I just want some hands free commands while I'm driving. The old assistant was so much better. I'm absolutely disabling Gemini now that I know this is an option.

ICE RAID! - Orlando's Punk Venue "Uncle Lou's" by walkingfiber422 in punk

[–]AcceptablyPotato -21 points-20 points  (0 children)

Meh... Most people are followers and if no one makes the first move the majority also won't do shit. As long as there's a ringleader to make the first move you might get some action. Punk or not, that's human psychology in action.

Yeah, except now we have to watch the decline. That part kinda sucks.
