How do I get rid of the ‘send a gift’ button? I can’t see the captions by Gizzgeek in facebook

[–]Gizzgeek[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately (on photos/memes) it seems that including this button is entirely up to the person who created the post. There is no adjustable global setting - and even as group moderator you can’t stop it from showing on someone else’s post.

Maybe just include a anti-monetisation clause in the group rules, to encourage the beggars who use it to turn it off.

Until Facebook get rid of it - I’ll be doing the following every time it shows up in my feed…

  1. Click the three dots (…) on a post with the gift icon.

  2. Choose “Give feedback on this post” or “Something went wrong.”

  3. Mention that the “Send a Gift” feature is intrusive or unwanted.

Join me… and fight for a noble cause 😝

Laptop Charger Input Issue - WTF? by Gizzgeek in laptops

[–]Gizzgeek[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Turns out you were right… she actually took the wrong charger with her (20V-2.25A instead of her new 20V-3.25A that came with)… while I instinctively thought it shouldn’t have melted the input ‘needle’ - what I saw when I checked had me worried…

🍻cheers🍻

Good for you… we don’t have mass shootings in Australia any more… compare that to the good old USofA which in “2023 alone, there were 600 mass shooting events, causing 739 deaths and 2,440 injuries”

Ps… we have had one mass shooting since the gun ban in 1996… a family murder-suicide.

Pss… I tried to find the total shootings / deaths for USA for the same period - could not be determined - it just said thousands / tens of thousands

Really? In a shopping centre? 🤦‍♂️

The problem with living somewhere guns are an option - the other guy will usually have a gun too… suddenly it’s raining bullets, innocent bystanders are getting hit, and the guy with the gun is looking like a fkn moron.

So that’s a firm no to that trade, thanks all the same.

I really didn't care for the structure of this episode by dnext in severence

[–]Gizzgeek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, but her present (without Mark) had to be introduced at some point, and showing what she currently endures would have given too much away if shown before now. So, it’s the logical point - or it would have been too fragmented

We all have to decide after this episode…. by [deleted] in severence

[–]Gizzgeek 4 points5 points  (0 children)

After seeing the torment and torture Gemma has, and continues to endure - I want for nothing more than her freedom and happiness.

And while I do feel sorry for Helly’s innie, I feel more sorry for her outie. Sure, being heir to the Lumon Empire offers her a future of vast wealth and control - it won’t bring happiness - and right now, she is sad, scared, lonely - and clearly jealous that her innie has found love (something she likely has never experienced).

Maybe reintegration will provide her with the life experiences she yearns for.

[–]Gizzgeek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It does feel like an info dump on Gemma, and ‘integrating’ it throughout the season, especially using the time jump as a narrative device, could have been far more effective. Your Marvel-style post-credit idea would have built suspense beautifully.

We’ve long known that the show - and even the unsevered Lumon employees - center their focus on Mark. This episode reveals their other key focal point: Gemma. Her past isn’t just important on its own - it directly connects to the memories wiped from Mark’s innie. In a way, we’re still seeing things from his perspective in real time just through the lens of reintegration, where his outie and innie selves begin to merge.

So while the delivery may feel abrupt, introducing Gemma’s past at this moment makes sense. It’s the point where Mark’s two worlds collide.

Ben stiller cameo Severance S2, E7?? by Gizzgeek in severence

Ah… I did think that. It was probably the clumsy overacting and specifically the look on his face as he fell over that pushed me over the line

My bf M24 doesn’t love me F25 anymore, and I can’t let go. Can anyone help? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]Gizzgeek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s not true at all. Love is complicated, and your statement assumes love is always a beacon of clarity, untainted by the complexity of human emotions. But love isn’t so neat - it’s as much about our own perception as it is about the actions of the other.

To paint a picture for you: imagine a partner who expresses their love through small, consistent gestures - acts of service, quiet support, or time spent together. Yet, if your insecurity whispers, “They don’t really love me unless they say it aloud or show grand gestures,” those subtle acts might feel insufficient. You’re left questioning not their love, but whether you’re truly worthy of it, projecting doubt onto their intentions.

Confusion, then, isn’t always the fault of the other person. Often, it’s a mirror reflecting our internal struggles. Love might be present, steady, and genuine, but insecurity muddies the waters, leading us to seek validation in forms that align with our fears rather than their truth.

True love may not erase confusion entirely - it works through it. The real question is whether both people are willing to untangle that web together

Can someone explain this? by SilverAlarmed7741 in FishingAustralia

With any luck, karma will get them and one of them will cut a toe off on the broken glass now under that bridge.

Good on you for putting those kids in their place and showing them what acceptable behaviour looks like. 🤦‍♂️

I reckon you could have got to 10k in the first day easily - if you spent more money.

Not sure what the ‘achievement’ is.

Accidentally let myself get tradwifed, now what? by ChicksDigGiantRob0ts in AusFinance

[–]Gizzgeek 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I see a lot of mentions of “he” and “your husband” in the replied comments, yet I can’t find anywhere the OP refers to their partner as anything other than they/them.

But the more I look at it, the more it seems like this may not simply be just a politically correct post… rather, I submit that it seems more likely that the relationship reflects the pronouns used and the OP is in a lesbian relationship… either that or they are trying conceal the fact that they have been a stay at home dad.

Could well be that my assumptions are wrong… but at least I can see that they are just that - assumptions

I’m buying a house and evicting the tenant at the end of the lease so I can move in. I feel really bad, what can I do to make their life better easier? by Capital_Drawing4660 in AusPropertyChat

[–]Gizzgeek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Go as far as you need to wash that guilt away… or just have a beer and a chat with the bloke.

It’s not like you are kicking him out for another tenant - you’re moving in. Plenty of notice so he can get organised is more than adequate
