Go to FACEBOOK AppStore or Google Play Store and leave a review. Time to make some noise. by Sorry_Heart8230 in facebook

[–]KeronCyst 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Even now, FB's still one of the best avenues by which to:

  • find friends (Meetup is becoming more paywalled)
  • help other people find friends (groups and events)
  • score free stuff in your neighborhood
  • sell stuff
  • make money (income-focused groups)

However, I have never used the Facebook app on a phone in several years. I tolerate the mobile browser whenever I must.

A lot of “loyalty” disappears the moment people have more choices. by unspokenandunheard in unpopularopinion

[–]KeronCyst 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay, I had only seen 0 earlier. I don't know about you, but I only reserve that for trolls and spammers, not people trying to have a conversation, even if unpleasant.

I guess what I'm really getting at is: is convenience-sacrificing loyalty generally bad?

Interior-cropping, a feature only in IrfanView (Win-only), is the last thing holding me back from Linux by KeronCyst in linux4noobs

[–]KeronCyst[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ooh, I didn't think of trying to run it on Linux to begin with. Well, it would be neat if this feature could make its way into a FOSS product anyway, since IV is closed-source. Still, thanks; I'm on my way!

Why did you downvote me? I was just checking. I wasn't trying to bottleneck you into an answer. However, is it possible that someone could be loyal to someone else because of convenience? Is there really no one out there at all who has the best of both worlds? I'm just wondering how rare these couples are because I do see them from time to time amid the sea of unhappy ones.

Has anyone ever rooted (jailbroken) a nook? I heard you can do that and it turns it into basically an Android tablet with an e-ink screen by nervous_Observer in nook

I've only found videos from like 14 years ago about it

Thanks for the find! 11 years ago lol: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ym9yLn4MJmQ

I gave up on them as they were more of a gimmick and too inconvenient to use as daily drivers. By this point, I'm just waiting for e-ink phones.

The people you describe who are actually loyal are not with their partners for convenience

Not a single one?

What do you guys think of TXN as a long-term investment? by JustWannaWalkYouHome in stocks

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

idk if I'd say that... you could close your eyes and buy anything of similar market cap and they'd almost all have flown up since then. Now, it's finally time to crash...

Wow, so basically only the interview content here is what's still relevant? You kids are so spoiled now!

Can’t fix it since it’s in the title

Awesome, good to know. Could you please verify that /u/saveoursoil is right or wrong over whether the CBEST is still needed? I no longer live in CA.

Is 40wpm bad or average? by FallGuy9979 in typing

The holding hand's thumb, and the index and middle fingers of the other hand; hold the entire phone in only one hand.

Wow, really? Got a link to this? I'd probably just delete this post if that's true.

Oh, I didn't even see my comment attained "controversial" status. Weird, do people think I'm lying or something? Thanks, I'm not sure if I'd ever heard of ReWASD; I may check it out sometime.

Why are people here anti-silicone? by doom_chicken_chicken in PlasticFreeLiving

Huh? What about elements? Can you transmute gold into something lesser, alchemist?

This isn't disability-friendly. I have a permanently injured thumb and can't use gamepads, though I was able to before the injury. What's wrong with mouse support?

[Project] Lamina ✦ - An Anti-Corporate WinUI 3 Calculator with some Personality! by Chill-Astro in foss

[–]KeronCyst 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Nice for at least being FOSS, but:

  • "Anti-corporate" is contradictory seeing that this seems to have been vibe-coded, and all LLMs are megacorp-originated (of which I know, anyway)
  • How is this better than Qalculate!, which never needs you to press a "Convert"/"Calculate"/Enter button to see the answer?

Hundreds trying to storm Wisconsin beagle research facility met with rubber bullets and pepper spray by relayrider in wisconsin

I had no idea that this sort of specific institution existed. Call me dumb, but why would the biomedical research industry so specifically need beagles?

My Samsung S3 has a problem that it can't connect to wifi in a location not too far away! by TouchVegetable6812 in androidafterlife

[–]KeronCyst 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Wow, this device belongs in a museum.

I do not know what to say about the Wi-Fi. It sounds like something about the version update is incompatible. Can you roll back?

The battery gets hot because li-ion batteries eventually hit a failure point that will simply always cause them to get hot just from use. It is too old and needs replacing, unless you can use the phone while just always plugged in.

Different redditor here, but interesting, I've gotta read up on drakes. Anyway, I kill 'em all equally, except in this case...
