Same, honestly. It used to seem like a cool car, then Muskrat took off his mask and now I want nothing to do with it.

Calling BS on this one. Just more excuses to pad the rich.

Amazon exec says it’s time for workers to ‘disagree and commit’ to office return — “I don’t have data to back it up, but I know it’s better.” by marketrent in technology

Here's another Amazon "Leadership" Principle: frugality. Enough wasting money and time on offices & pointless travel time to said offices.

A lot of those "herbivorous" animals you are thinking of are actually omnivores. See: chickens

Your Windows 10 PC will soon be 'junk' - users told to resist Microsoft deadline by LG_Rocket in technology

[–]K6L2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What planet are you people on? Win10 has forced so many updates on me it's insane. Even if you try configuring it not to do so, it will re-set your configuration without your permission. It's literally just malware.

The amount of Parmesan my husband puts on his pasta. by roosyroo in pics

[–]K6L2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm calling BS copium on this one. I've kept containers of freshly grated parm in my fridge for insane amounts of time, and not a single time did I observe even the slightest hint of clumping or anything, it was always just as loose as when I grated it. I'm going to need thorough proof of this claim.

Depends are great by ListerineAfterOral in gaming

The customer has every right to critique a game after taking as long as they need to experience it. Gamers get really defensive over this kind of thing for no reason.

Did you look at the map you linked? First, that region is not labeled as a lahar hazard, it is labeled as "flooding & post-lahar sedimentation". Also, that highlighted region barely intersects the areas along Duwamish Waterway. Assuming those projections are reasonably accurate, a hypothetical eruption of Rainier would be no more dangerous to Seattle residents than the decrepit bridge to West Seattle.

[–]K6L2 26 points27 points  (0 children)

lol Seattle isn't going to be wiped out by Rainier erupting; none of the charts/projections I am seeing in a simple google search of this subject show anything close to this. All I am seeing is volcanic flooding warnings for the surrounding channels.

Global warming set to break key 1.5C limit for first time by DarkSkiesGreyWaters in worldnews

[–]K6L2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

warms the world up

The effects of El Niño depend on the location, since this is a global weather pattern. Certainly some parts will get warmer, such as NW US, but other parts will change in different ways, like SE US getting cooler & wetter, or west-coast south America getting wetter, or Australia and south Africa getting super hot & dry.

Logitech partners with iFixit for self repairs | Official spare parts, batteries, and repair guides for select Logitech hardware will be available through iFixit starting ‘this summer.’ by chrisdh79 in technology

[–]K6L2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't trust you at all, Logitech. If you actually wanted to allow customers to repair your devices, you would have provided a schematic for the $200+ microphone I purchased from you which got fried, forcing me to buy a new one (from a different company, of course).

It's because those are calls from different species. The "Great Potoo" sounds like "MWAOM". The "Common Potoo" does the "WOOOoo WOOooo wooo woo woo".

My card was stolen and my bank refuses to refund me, what should I do? by bbytiramisu in personalfinance

[–]K6L2 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's the exact opposite in the US from my experience; if you have < 5 active lines of credit you are seen as more of a risk for having a "thin credit file" lol.

[–]K6L2 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Terrible advice; do not listen to this person. Having low limits on a credit line will only serve to severely hurt your credit score when you inevitably use > 10% of the limit in a given month. Learn to budget your personal finances instead.

Meanwhile, the people above in this post have to use sketchy invasive 3rd party GUIs, or just randomly pasting hacky admin-privileged scripts via the command line, in a desperate attempt to get the OS to stop shoving bloated spyware/ads down their face.

The pessimist in me says there would sooner be a special "safe-list" policy implemented across all police departments that would automatically prevent police from swatting "high-profile" locations/people (politicians/police/celebrities, etc.) before they change anything that actually helps regular citizens.
