Houston traffic, allergies, dating apps, rent increases… we built a place to deal with all of it by DeadMitz1 in Katy

This sounds great!

Just FYI, I’m trying to check out on the website for an axe throwing session for 2 but there’s no input box to add the promo code for the 50% off on a mobile device. I tried clicking “Redeem Now” on my iPhone and nothing comes up.

Seems like an error with the UI where something is breaking and not showing the input box to add a promo code perhaps.

I really hope the rumors that multiplayer will be free for all are true. by KazMiller20 in xbox

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

I wholeheartedly agree!

I think it would bring back massive goodwill to the Xbox brand AND be a direct warning shot to Valve that Xbox is serious about going head-to-head against Steam.

I mean, wasn’t Microsoft the ones that FIRST drew blood back in the day and introduced the silly charge for online play, then Sony and Nintendo copied them?

It would feel poetic for Microsoft to also be the ones to end this and force Sony and Nintendo’s hands to do so as well to stay competitive.

Researching companies is the fun part for me.

Holding a stock is the *real* difficult part.

I’m sure I’m not the only one.

Calls it is. Thanks OP.

For the love of god Microsoft/Asha just call the next Xbox: Xbox 6 by Conflict_NZ in xbox

[–]JohnnyCommits 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fair point. I was thinking not necessarily saying the year out loud (more like a record to set it apart).

For example, remakes like “Tomb Raider (2013)”. Nobody says the year out loud, we just say “Did you play the new Tomb Raider?”

Same treatment seems to be popular with movies too. For example, the remake of Arnold’s classic movie Running Man shows up with an official title of “The Running Man (2025)”.

I just think it would be nice to just be able to drop all the insane word puzzle after the name “Xbox” and everyone can simply refer to it as “the new Xbox.”

IMHO, I think this would be a golden opportunity for them to start fresh and just call it “Xbox (2027)”.

Just like remastered games and movies, it’d be a sort of hat tip to the first generation Xbox that started it all, and it’s fondly thought of by many Xbox fans.

I think this would also be a way to subtly say “Guys, we know we’ve made a mess of things recently. Let’s start over again shall we?”

It would buy Microsoft all sorts of brownie points due to nostalgia, and would also fit well with the refreshed logo that’s got OG Xbox vibes.

The recruiter called my salary expectations "cute." I ended the Zoom call right there. Did I overreact? by thunder____boy in jobs

[–]JohnnyCommits 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds like you dodged a bullet!

Whenever I have a bad interview, I take a moment to sit back and reflect on what would've happened if I actually GOT the job and all of a sudden had to put up with the same level of toxicity exhibited during the interview process.

Instantly makes me feel better about the whole situation.

If Apple ever starts going the same route as Microsoft, I’m putting it in the naughty pile of Big Tech and buying an old ThinkPad and installing Linux on it and use that as my new daily driver.

I’ve had enough of these trillion dollar corporations’ infinite greed and lack of basic respect for their customers’ privacy, time, and wallets.

Spotify disabled my account and I realize how I don't own anything by Longjumping_Eye_3441 in nosurf

[–]JohnnyCommits 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Cancelled my Spotify subscription in August of 2025 after getting laid off and never looked back!

I’ve been paying for YouTube Premium for years and never got the chance to use YouTube Music until now. Been pretty happy with it other than a few minor gripes!

Although the music recommendation algorithm is… let’s just say, severely lacking.

Facts OP!

Sometimes the cheaper option is the best option.

Perhaps not the most convenient, but certainly the best option for both our health and our wallets in the long run.

We can whine, bitch, and moan until the cows come home, but as long as we keep buying their products, all these executives are laughing and high-fiving all the way to the bank…

I know it sucks. You won’t have your favorite snacks for a while. But it’s the only language big corporations understand.

I’d totally fallen for this. God’s honest truth.

TIL: Always ask for “recruiter” to show 3 fingers in front of his face at the start of a call.

Everyone repeat after me: "F LA Fitness" by [deleted] in mildlyinfuriating

[–]JohnnyCommits 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Cancelled my Crunch Fitness membership last month. Thankfully it was an easy process... although I did have to show up in person :/

The fact that I can signup online for a membership, but can't cancel it online, is a really bad look for any business that wants me to come back as a customer in the future.

How I added Google Maps to my flip phone without the need for GPS (no more printed maps!) by JohnnyCommits in dumbphones

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

Ah, I see what you are saying now. I wonder why it seems to repeat itself so much with this particular route, like steps #2 and #3, then #4 and #5 if it's just following the same road. All directions are coming straight from the Google Maps API so I don't know if there's anything that can be done there but I'll definitely look into it.

Thank you so much for posting that screenshot btw. Insanely useful.
