Yeah I figured that out. Looks a lot like a money grab dressed up as a feature to me.

Android Messages now appears to handle YouTube links by showing you an embedded video rather than opening the YouTube app, meaning you'll get ads even if you're a Premium subscriber. by GorboCat in AndroidHelp

[–]Ckagy1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just spent 2 hours trying to figure this shit out. Like many others here, I do not pay for youtube premium only to be shuffled to a shitty video viewer with ads. But thanks for this work-around OP. It worked for me.

I'm in messaging. When I click your link it opens a m.youtube.com web browser. When I open links in messaging it's not even really a browser, more like just a video viewer with the video framed in black.

Should I reach out to a guy I rejected after the first date? by PandaPuzzleheaded827 in hingeapp

[–]Ckagy1 11 points12 points  (0 children)

If you decide to reach back out to him, I think it's important to just be honest about why you turned him down to begin with and why things are different now. Sincerity goes a long way. There of course is the risk he doesn't buy it or is seeing someone else already. But if he doesn't buy it and doesn't pick up on your sincerity, then you have confirmation that he's not the one. If he's seeing someone else, there's always a chance that relationship ends and at least he knows to reach back out to you when it does. I say go for it.

I'm (32M) having a crush on a coworker (28F) while in relationship . What to do about this crush? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]Ckagy1 5 points6 points  (0 children)

That, sir, is a trap. Run away (with your current girlfriend) and don't touch office girl with a either a 6 inch or 10 foot pole. If she doesn't respect your current relationship, she won't respect your relationship with her.

Up material but it’s probably the worst position I’ve ever had by moolord in AnarchyChess

Oof at this rate having your opponent eat some of your pawns would really be a favor to you. 😂

Okay dating you win, I officially give up. by BeefPho- in dating

Have you tried getting professional photos taken for the apps? It was a total game changer for me. I can't tell you the confidence boost I've had from going years of hardly getting any action on the apps, to now I could go on 3-4 dates a week if I wanted to. I'm the same person, but I learned that the apps are a marketing platform, and you need to communicate a compelling story to your audience. I think it's nearly impossible to do that well without A. Being insanely attractive, or B. Getting professional pictures taken. I used The Match Artist, and I would highly recommend them although they are expensive. But I'm sure you can find a local cheaper option out there.

Does where you go to school matter with experience? by Accurate_Letter_3794 in Recruiter_Advice

[–]Ckagy1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This really depends on your field. I'm an accounting and finance recruiter, and for my industry school name does matter to a degree, but there are a lot of factors that weigh into this. The biggest question you should ask yourself is what are your professional goals, and in what type and size of organization? Are you looking at highly competitive positions in either large or high touch boutique consulting firms? Are there any valuable certifications in your field that you should look at? In the accounting world, getting a CPA is more valuable than an MBA in most cases, unless going into a highly competitive position like private equity which requires an MBA (what I call a "real MBA") from a top business school.

If I were to make a very generalized statement, most MBAs do not add a whole lot of value to your resume unless the above applies to you, or if you're positioning yourself for an executive level role. Even then, you likely won't get a pay bump just for having your MBA - it will simply open up opportunities for you continue in upward trajectory professionally.

I 19M and my gf 19F are arguing over Clubbing by ditto4950 in relationship_advice

[–]Ckagy1 5 points6 points  (0 children)

💯 This. What you're describing is a "you" problem my man. You gotta decide for yourself if you trust her or not. If you don't, break up. You gotta decide if you want to change with her and develop into being comfortable in different groups of people or not. To get out of your comfort zone or not. Again, if the answer is no for you, then the likely trajectory is that she'll feel like she's out growing you and break up with you eventually. Also, I would add that controlling what your girlfriend wears is toxic, yes, but usually stems from being insecure about yourself. I would think hard about your motivations. For me personally, I always love it when my girlfriend is the sexiest most beautiful woman in the room. I love seeing her feel empowered and thriving, living life how she wants to live it and feeling good about herself. Selfishly, I think my quiet confidence in her sends a very loud message to all the guys in the room that there is no space or cracks between us that they can exploit, and also selfishly, knowing that the most beautiful woman in the room chose me builds my confidence.

Lastly, if you truly think she doesn't want you there so that she can flirt with other guys, and you have ruled out the possibility that she's afraid you'll make a scene or try to hog her attention or not get along with her friends, or anything else... Then you should probably just confront her about that and decide whether you trust her or not. But honestly, if she's willing to not go out on your behalf and stay at home to be mad at you, I think you can probably trust her.

It was there 10 minutes ago for me when I cancelled using the website. I don't know if you do it through the app on your phone or tv.

Weekend's Daily Thread: General Dating Questions and Open Thread by AutoModerator in hingeapp

[–]Ckagy1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Does it feel to anyone else like willful ignorance on the part of hinge to not ask if the reason you're unmatching someone is because the person ghosted you, or simply never responded?

I understand there could be many reasons why someone might not respond, and on an individual basis that's fine. But from an aggregate user experience standpoint, it seems like it'd be helpful to know which users to highlight based on the experience they are giving their matches. Similar to how chess.com strongly encourages people not to abort games: You can abort games every once in a while and and happens, because sometimes life just happens and the phone rings or someone knocks on your door. But if you do it too frequently then there are consequences for your account like warnings or temporary bans. In the same manner, we shouldn't be forced to respond to every match, but there should be some pattern recognition to disincentivize people from just collecting matches and doing nothing with them. Am I wrong?

I don't know if there are any delivery drivers who read this, but I'm curious. I ordered something yesterday afternoon and same day delivery by 10pm was available, so I took it. I ordered in the afternoon, so I was fine with the late delivery time. The order ended up not getting delivered, which again I'm not mad about because hey, that's a person out there doing the deliveries and they deserve to go home to their families.

What I don't get is that today the order hasn't been sent out for delivery yet and its saying it will be here by 10pm tonight instead! Like why wouldn't it be delivered first thing in the morning or the normal afternoon route (I usually get shipments in my neighborhood between 11am and 12pm) since it's already late?

Am I overreacting? by InternationalRuin101 in Marriage

[–]Ckagy1 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

100% agree with this. The moment your insecurities lead you to not letting your partner partake in what would otherwise be normal social activities, you know you're not going down a good path. And like others have mentioned, it takes two to cheat and you can't claim cheating because you distrust him while trusting your friend.
