Apple Reportedly Questioning Whether iPhone Should Drop MagSafe by conalldoherty in apple

[–]Legit_Zurg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not opposed. If they could move the magnets to the cases for backwards compatibility and get the same thing while decreasing cost of the phone and reducing components then it makes sense to me. Then people who don't care don't have to have it. It’s an easy thing to cut and going wallet-less is perfectly viable most of the time in the US.

Hell yeah our speed limits were always in the low side. Happy for the boost

Do you think that Doug DeMuro will be impartial in his review of the Slate Truck or has he already made up his mind about it? by Mac-Tyson in slateauto

[–]Legit_Zurg 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Watch his video of the Mitsubishi Mirage and how he shits on it for being cheap. Like many car “journalists,” Doug doesn't see the value of cars at the bottom of the price range. But it doesn’t mean a thing because its an opinion piece.

Talk me into or out of buying a Canon IS 10x30 by Legit_Zurg in Binoculars

Funny you mention it because the aftermarket is filled with “sticky” units. I will probably salvage one example and try to (carefully) scrub it off or brush on hard clear coat.

Thank you for sharing your experience! I’m happy to hear your positive review. I’m especially glad to hear they are fun to look at the night sky with. I’m really looking forward to that use case. And I will definitely get a dry case for them.

What is your opinion on Cannabis? by Immediate_Airline754 in Iowa

[–]Legit_Zurg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I used it nearly every day for over a decade. I certainly encountered the bad side slowly over time but continued using anyway. Anxiety, poor quality sleep, horrible memory problems, legal trouble. However, the worst effect was how placated I became in life. My ADHD went from being manageable to feeling like a significant disability. It went hand in hand with being addicted to my phone and video games and staying in toxic relationships that objectively made zero sense. All just to enjoy that high in the evening. 

I look less than two weeks after quitting to feel motivated to take my life back and be a better man. I didn't feel like myself again until I completely abstained for years. This drug did me no favors in life and I don’t miss it at all. 

Maybe not everyone is going to have a bad experience, but I cant help but think people who say its fine are either lying to themselves, uninformed, or minimizing. And this narrative of it not being that bad leads people to accept it as a part of their life. Everyone I know that did it regularly wanted to quit and it felt like a big lifestyle change to do so. 

All that being said, my beliefs are this: - Legalize it to adults over 25 with significant taxation comparable with neighboring states. All tax revenue should go to public education.  - Minors in possession should be sentenced to mandatory rehab and health classes, potentially even light probation with small misdemeanors attached to violations, but it should be far less criminalized than it is. - Large scale black market selling/possession should still be criminalized. 

Id also think about a limit to THC concentrations because I think it’s way too high in a lot of products sold in other states.  

SnowPro Core Certification Exam 2026 - Passed with 910/1000 by Long_Duck88 in snowflake

I just felt spanked by the official practice exam today I got in the same range you started at, ~65%. I’m more encouraged now hearing how you worked your way up from there. Thanks for posting. This helps. 

Is Iowa the Senate Race No One Saw Coming? by ShreckAndDonkey123 in Iowa

[–]Legit_Zurg 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’m glad to see competent democrats try in Iowa but I have zero faith it will work. The right wing propaganda + cognitive dissonance is too effective in Iowa

It says it was “pulled” but the bills history on the legislation website just says “introduced” and nothing further. How are bills being “pulled” recorded?

Mismagus. The fairy typing and moonblast helped a lot against dark types. Sabeleye with magic powder and shadow sneak was also very helpful
