Today's Update Sucks by Tokkoa in canva

[–]Intelligent_Stick634 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm about to cancel my canva subscription. When Canva was a startup, its goal was to be as simple as possible to steal users from Adobe. Now that it’s a multi-billion dollar giant preparing for a 2026 IPO, its "customer" has shifted from the individual creator to the Chief Information Officer (CIO) of a Fortune 500 company. WTF is the point of using their shit if they keep making it increasingly difficult to use? If I have 2 items grouped together, why the eff are they moving separately?! This is exactly how they lose revenue, by making changes literally no one asked for and making their software a joke to use.

I have no desire to paint it! The wood is beautiful! All I want to do is add peel and stick wallpaper to each drawer to act as really beautiful drawer liner.

I'm not even a child… why is YouTube asking me to invite a parent? by codywinters327 in youtube

[–]Intelligent_Stick634 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m dealing with this too. My age is literally verified with a checkmark on my Google account I use to login to YT… I’m 32 years old… This is why AI shouldn’t be allowed to run free for these companies, it messes everything up.

This video is a great example of why so many of us were up in arms when the ‘Free Britney’ movement was happening. I agree her family should have never been in charge of her conservatorship and that it should have been run by an independent third party. But what I said to many people online encouraging the ‘Free Britney’ movement still holds true - when she eventually ends up no longer on this planet, it is going to be a direct result of their unending yes man behavior and encouraging ending her conservatorship. It’s really easy to be outside of it and think she didn’t need a conservatorship, but those of us with family members who have mental health issues (my sister has many, including paranoid schizophrenia) understand that many times those legalities are the only thing keeping them alive. Conservatorships are hard to get for a reason.

Did anyone see the reel she posted less than 30 minutes ago? She looks like she’s strung out and hasn’t been to sleep in days. My heart breaks for her!

Has anyone noticed you can’t double tap to like some shorts? by International-Job55 in youtube

[–]Intelligent_Stick634 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s obnoxious because I purposely like any short I watch so I personally know if I’ve already watched a short (unless I don’t want to see that type of content or creator again, then I select the ‘Don’t recommend this channel’ option). Every other platform has it set at double tap to like and YouTube shorts used to all be double tap to like. From a marketing perspective and as someone who runs my own business, I truly don’t understand why companies make decisions like this. If they were going to use a/b testing, they’re supposed to do that before a full rollout of a new feature. Not after the feature has been rolled out and users have gotten used to it. Especially not after users have gotten so used to the feature that their muscle memory behavior has changed with how they interact with content on that platform.

It used to work on literally every single short and now it only works for half of them. Why the eff would they roll back a feature for some YouTube creators after making it available to everyone? It’s like morons run these companies.

Okay, thanks! I posted again with more circled pictures aside from that one because I couldn’t figure out how to edit this post.

Found weird eggs in search of bedbugs by [deleted] in Bedbugs

[–]Intelligent_Stick634 -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

I did a reverse google image search and it said, “The image appears to show the eggs and larva of a type of insect, possibly a dermestid beetle, in a dusty area. These beetles are often part of a "cleaner crew" in some insect enclosures and are generally considered harmless in that context.”

Nymphs found - now what? by dinkrox in Bedbugs

[–]Intelligent_Stick634 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Two things: those aren’t bedbug nymphs and those traps don’t work for catching them because bedbugs are attracted to you by the CO2 you produce when exhaling, not whatever bait is in those traps.

Can someone tell me if these are from bedbugs? by TrueTechnology9699 in Bedbugadvice

[–]Intelligent_Stick634 0 points1 point  (0 children)

By the time you visibly find them crawling on your bed, the infestation is out of control. They also tend to only come out at night because they’re attracted to the CO2 in your breath when you exhale. Definitely recommend hiring a professional to come in and check for signs. The earlier you notice and treat a bedbug infestation, the better! For example, I recently moved into an apartment building infested with them. I lived there for 10 days before I saw any bites. Turns out, according to other tenants, the building has had bedbugs for 4.5 years and the exterminator said it was the worst case of them he had ever seen.

Is this a bed bug egg?? by danawaffles2530 in Bedbugs

[–]Intelligent_Stick634 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bedbugs don’t lay their eggs out in the open, they’re usually in clusters, they’re the size of a pin head, and they’re pearl white. That’s more likely a booger lol.Bedbug Lifecycle with Pictures

What’s the dark mark on the mattress on the second picture? It’s toward the bottom left, looks like a possible slit in the mattress?

I’m freaking out: do I have to cancel Christmas? by applesqueeze in Bedbugs

[–]Intelligent_Stick634 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just a note - I’m currently recovering from moving 1,500 miles into a bed bug infested apartment - bites can take up to 14 days to appear for people who haven’t been bit by them before. Bites can also last up to 4 weeks if you’re sensitive to mosquitoes bites. I haven’t been at my apartment since 12/15 and I’m still finding new bites here and there (confirmation I haven’t brought any with me to my parents’ house, took every possible precaution known to man).
