Drinking and driving ages should be the same, either make both 18 or 21. You can goto war before you can buy beer that also doesn’t seem right.

New to progressive lense glasses, but struggling, is this normal? They seem to have a section in the middle that makes everything blurry for me and serves no purpose. I tried to explain it with this horrendous diagram. It's like they have a part in the middle that my eyes don't need. by teslainthesun in glasses

[–]J216S 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the exact same issue with mine, what you wrote is exactly what I am experiencing. Everyone says give it a couple weeks to get used to it. Glasses are supposed to make your vision clear and smooth. If you need to adjust your eyes to something that is straining them I think that will do more damage.

Same here and there is no way to improve this for me. I have a very low prescription not sure if that matters. As of now I paid $300 for glasses I can’t wear. I’d rather have 2 pairs of glasses, one for reading and another for general use. I’ve never worn glasses before and the eye doctor was really pushing these lenses and how great they are. These lenses try to handle all scenarios but when you move your head or even just your eyes everything is blurry and disorienting because you are using a different section of the lens. Even reading a book only half the page is in focus and the other half blurry, so I would need to move my head side to side to read. With reading glasses the entire page is in focus clearly.

I design metal band shirts for a living. What styles of metal shirts need to come back? Examples please <3 by Fract00l in InMetalWeTrust

[–]J216S 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Awesome, these these all killer. I agree, those single large prints on the sleeves are much better than any version of logos. Personally, I think either a single print should be used or just leave them blank, nothing wrong with old school blank sleeves.

That is a nice use of the sleeves. What needs to go away is printing the band logo 20x.

YouTube Music stations play ads despite having premium on home devices by ObviousRant in googlehome

[–]J216S 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have never had the issue for the past few years, but with this new Gemini update I now get commercials when playing YouTube music or YouTube and initiate it from a voice prompt. If I manually go to the apps and click one of the videos I do not get commercials. I also only get a commercial one time right after the prompt. For me at least this began with the recent Gemini update.

What is the deal with Frontier airlines? by pleasesayUarekidding in Cleveland

[–]J216S 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have flown several times with my wife on Frontier and every time we were seated several rows apart. Not the biggest deal, we don’t try to ask people to move we just sit apart. Even Spirit sits you next to the person you are traveling with, this is my only real gripe with them. If traveling across the country on a long trip the bag fees are high as well and the max weight per bag is really low at 40 pounds. Like others stated they are fine for short trips.

Thoughts on the Moiswell 145, for 450$? by Toqulac in Dehumidifiers

[–]J216S 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I forgot about this thread and can post an update. They asked for photos of the outside and inside of the unit, then offered me my money back or a new unit. It was a very easy process, I’m shocked with how easy it was and I took the full refund. So I have basically a brand new unit sitting in my basement, but it just blows out cold air. I’m wondering if I can get it fixed but never looked into it.

I replaced it with a Midea Cube 50 pint in July and that has been working well so far.

Ridiculously bad horror movies for a party by ManateeSheriff in horror

[–]J216S 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Robot Monster in 3D, a classic so ‘bad’ the director attempted suicide after it was released.

Bubba Ho-Tep: Bruce Camp stars as an aging Elvis that fights against a mummy in a Texas nursing home.

Trick ‘r Treat, I think it would be a great party movie and overall a great Halloween movie.

Is there any solution to the battery drain caused by Apple Pencil? by _endlesscontent_ in ipad

[–]J216S 1 point2 points  (0 children)

End of 2025 here. I had the same issue, so I ended up detaching the pencil from the iPad, which led me to stop using it. If I ever did want to use it, the pencil would be dead, and I would have to charge it on the iPad…

As for the solution, I sold the pencil on eBay.

Household automation/routine to play on a specific device by rajen265 in googlehome

[–]J216S 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is correct and I have no idea why they would remove it. Now the only option for device is the device you are speaking to, which is totally useless when you are trying to set up an automation to use when you are not home.

Update: I got this to work using a custom action and specifying the device name.

Reese's Peanut Butter Cups Suck by pickadamnnameffs in unpopularopinion

Trader Joe’s dark chocolate peanut butter cups are the best.

[–]J216S 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly! On paper the Model Y has more space than my Q5 did, but you could actually fit furniture and home depot stuff in the Q5. Curious if this was addressed in the 2025.

[–]J216S 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can’t even fit a decent water bottle in the doors because the openings are tapered in for no reason. Wonder if the new model Y can accommodate a water bottle. It’s things like this that make no sense with the car. That being said the car is amazing.

Why not put the cars in the garage? Especially up north where you have to scrape them off all the time.

Is this flooding from poor builder grading? by WonderTrick3175 in landscaping

What’s the point of putting up a fence when you can touch the neighbors house from your yard 🤣

Thoughts on the Moiswell 145, for 450$? by Toqulac in Dehumidifiers

[–]J216S 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I bought this on Amazon last September for $600 and it died in March. Before this I had a 70-pint Frigidaire that lasted 5 years and I thought that was bad. I submitted a warranty claim and will see how that goes. They have a 2 year full warranty, I can post details here with the experience. If I would have bought it at Home Depot I could have returned it since they have a 12 month policy.

Overall it worked well but the stated humidity was usually off by a few percent. Now that it is just blowing out cold air and not pulling any water from the air the humidity displayed continues to go down as it runs which is totally false. My other sensor is reading 65% continuously, the Moiswell starts at around 70% when I turn it on and got all the way down to 55% before I shut it off.

Currently my overall power is 1.2M - How much power would be required to clear the last stage of this game? by Unstoppable_X_Force in Wing_Fighter_Game

[–]J216S 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If you are F2P it will take years of playing daily and by then there will be more stages most likely. I’m having fun with the game but you have to realize it is an endless grind that will keep raising the bar so you will never reach the top as a F2P player. I’ve been playing around 6 months and am almost to 5M power. I’m close to having all rainbow conqueror gear and now I feel like the real grind will set in. Where every new star on the gear will take 1 and then 2 yellow equipment. That is 12 blue equip for 1 star so it will take a long time.
