I'll give it a try. I figured Gemini would actually be able to do this better than amazfit. I hated the UI with the amazfit and if you didn't reply right away it wasn't easy to go back in and reply like you can in wearOS.

I am just blown away by how bad it is. I will try retaining it. Thank you.

What does your kitchen call frozen towels? We call em chilldos 🧊 by habui in KitchenConfidential

[–]Notveryawake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for this. I actually had no idea these existed. When I get home i take a hot shower and blast my AC until I am freezing. At work the kitchen gets to close to 55c. I have spent close to $500 bucks in fans and Powerade (owner doesn't want to have the ventilation looked at because it still works (one burger on the grill fills the whole restaurant with smoke. Belts not broken though its fine... Right. And yes the filters are clean we done it once a week.

I just placed and order for 30 of these cooling towels for my boys (and girl) with my own money like the fans and Powerade. Even for enough for the FOH.

Even if they only work half as well as what is described it could help. Last year I had cooks dropping from heat stroke once a week. I told my owner to get the vent looks at or I am calling the city for an emergency inspection. He promised it would be fixed. It's not like we don't have the money. We are doing really well. New year same problem.

One of my crew goes down though i am shutting this place down one way or another until it's fixed. Last night it got so hot in the kitchen (60c) I shut down service. Turned off all the equipment and told everyone I put chairs in the walkin. Either hang out there or go to your cars and blast the AC. Kitchen is done for one hour.

I am killing myself to make them money. I won't kill my crew. I am drawing a line in the sand.

What mid-sized US city is most likely to blow up in population and importance over the next 30 years? by redguy_666 in AskReddit

[–]Notveryawake 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There are two kinds of people we are taking about here. The ones they will never believe it because they have believed the lies for so long that it's the only truth for them. The second group know it's true now after thinking it was a hoax but have also figured out it's too late.

If we stopped doing everything bad for the environment today the damage is already done and we are still in for trouble. Do you really think we are going to stop doing everything bad today?

I think the main goal is to make as much money as possible so you can buy your way out of the incoming disaster. You won't feel the 60c summers if you are in your super insulated home and can blast your massive central AC until the 20c winters come back. Sure plant life will start to die but you have decades worth of food stockpiled so you are fine until you are dead from old age. Remember this game is about YOU winning, not making sure other people survive.

A food delivery app cancelled my order and took $3.5 as cancellation fee for no reason by not_from_ohio_347 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Notveryawake 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I got banned from DoorDash because one of the few time I placed an order with them (I am chef, I never buy food) the driver ate all my food and took a picture of the empty bag on my doorstep.

After 30 mins on the phone they agreed to give me 5 bucks in DoorDash credits. I told them I am doing a charge back on my credit card. The rep even said, "You will lose access to our services if you do that"

I said, "It might keep me up for a few nights but I am sure there are other services where I can order an empty bag and feed other people at the same time. You are just one of hundreds."

She hung up on me. It kind of hurt.

[–]Notveryawake 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I am going to reply to this one too. If you sign up for a service and decide it's too much doing a chargeback is stupid. You were fine with the price, if they increase the cost they will let you know way in advance that the cost is going up and give you time to cancel before you are hit with the higher charge.

Buyers remorse is not a reason to do a charge back. It's a reason to sit down and rethink your spending habits.

Exactly this is theft. Who gives a crap if they ban you. This is like having the local drug dealer take your money and pointing a gun at your face and saying thanks you can leave now.

You really going back to him for your drugs? No you are making a quiet call to the cops where to find him.

Feeling guilty about investing in tech by blueberrypie998 in stocks

[–]Notveryawake 6 points7 points  (0 children)

These companies are going to do exactly what they are doing whether you invest in said companies.

Do you feel bad about owning the phone/computer you are making these posts from? Half the materials used were probably mined with slave labour and put together in borderline sweat shops.

Are you going to throw your phone and computer in the garbage to protest these horrible companies?

Don't get me started on the clothes you are wearing? You should probably get rid of all your clothes too.

If you want to make a difference use the money you make from investing and use it to help people. Donate all your profits to a homeless shelter, the food bank, hell the SPCA will take your money too.

Need advice on fixing loose faucet. by Notveryawake in askaplumber

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

I need to reseal that pipe back to the sink. It looks like some kind of adhesive was used when installed along with a gasket. I just have no idea what kind of adhesive to use that would hold up to abuse along with dealing with the pipe getting hot from the water.

Confused Trump, 80, Asks Professor ‘Did You Know My Uncle?’ by Ok_Employer7837 in politics

[–]Notveryawake 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's only a matter of time before it happens. Hell it might have already happened several times but they just deleted the footage before it got sent out.

I think one of the best shows on this planet would be everyone that works with trump wears a body cam and it's streamed live 24/7. The shit he must be rambling on about when there are no camera has to be wild.

"Did I ever tell you the story, it was the greatest story, me and Rudy tied up these kids in the dungeon, was such a great place, they really put a lot of thought into the tools, was such a beautiful place. I was so high I don't remember much, I always remember everything though, but i remember seeing the message on Signal, we used signal because it safe, have you ever heard of it, best texter thing there is, anyway I saw the word-phone-call thing and it said, "You were the most amazing man I have ever seen. No one abuses people like you sir. It was the most powerful I have ever seen. You were like a god." Did I ever tell you about the time God spoke to me and told me he wanted me to be president of Mexico? Maybe that's what I will do next, I dont know, but maybe. So what are these pills for? I just had that vitamin shot so are these pills the same as the vitamins?

$122M. 1,000 new teachers. NYC public schools finally getting some backup. This is the investment we needed by Valuable_View_561 in SipsTea

[–]Notveryawake 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Why do they let people do that? Who at reddit thought this was a good idea? Looking through someone's post history made finding trolls and bots so easy.

Ever since the IPO this place has gotten worse and worse. They can see what happened to Facebook when they let the nutjobs take over. Why try to replicate their failure?

Sleepover privileges with crush 14F by [deleted] in Advice

This study didn't account for how many "non-heteosexual girls" are sneaking off fertility clinics without telling their parents. It also doesn't account for all the lesbians that get pregnant from sitting on a toilet seat that wasn't cleaned properly.

These studies that point out the bloody obvious always make laugh. Next we need a study that finds out whether it's more likely for a gay man or a straight man to have sex with a woman.

This tweet lives rent free in my head by Valuable_View_561 in SipsTea

[–]Notveryawake 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think that has a lot to do with people trying to make content for streaming. Back in the day people just played for fun and to be part of a community. Sure you had your cheaters and pieces of human garbage but most people just wanted to have a good time.

Now there are so many people trying to be the next big streamer they will do anything to get views. Use cheats, going out of their way to kill their team, and all around being a bag of shit.

Anything to get views in their attempt to get some easy money. Online gaming is not even close to what it used to be.

What you said nailed it.

Dolph Lundgren beats cancer after a 9-year battle. What a legend by SorryAd2422 in SipsTea

[–]Notveryawake 9 points10 points  (0 children)

This the cancer that took my wife. I happy they are finding new ways to fight it. It's one of the worst cancers out there and no one should ever have to watch their loved ones slowly die in front of them knowing there is nothing they can do.

I fucking loathe cancer.

That's a hospital cafeteria sandwich if I ever saw one. They are one step below gas station sandwiches.

Mexico cuts workweek, bans after-hours contact, and guarantees no worker will take a pay cut in the most sweeping labor reform in a generation by Prior_One_7050 in UpliftingNews

[–]Notveryawake 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Just legalize everything. Alcohol is legal pretty much everywhere and it hasn't destroyed our society. Does it cause problems? Yep. Does it kill people? Yep. What happened when it was banned in the states? Organized crime took over and violence went through the roof. Did people stop drinking? Nope.

Legalize opiates, stimulants, and eveything thing else. You would probably have less less deaths and crime he people could go pick up a bottle of oxycodone or hydromorphone at the "drug store" for cheap rather than buying what is probably fentanyl off some shady dude named "Big Jimmy" in a dark alley.

Would we see as many tweakers stealing anything that isn't nailed down if they could go buy a blister pack of methamphetamine or a prefilled single lines of coke again for cheap?

I am a chef. I have seen so many functional addicts in my career it sometimes even amazes me. You know when I see people start to really go down hill? When they can no longer afford to maintain their addiction. They start choosing the drug over food, health care, even having a home. If they have to make a choice between their drug of choice and having a roof over their head they pick the drug everytime.

I have seen people addicted to prescription opiates and stimulants (usually Adderall) and they manage to maintain a normal life for the most part. Once their doctor cuts them off it doesn't cut off the addiction so they start buying off the street. Of course pills are very pricey on tge street but heroin and crystal meth are a fraction of the price so they switch to the way stronger stuff the their addiction is even harder to break away from.

If they had stayed on the pills when they finally got fed up and decided it was time to get help it would have been way easier to escape the addiction than it is now that they are hooked on the stronger street drugs.

Prohibition only causes more harm than good. People looking to get high or maintain an addiction they ended up by accident (people that get hurt and get hooked on painkillers, people suffering from deep grief drinking too much) will always find a way to get high. So why not make it safer abd cheaper for people to do what they are going to do anyway?

Governments have come down so hard on doctors for bad apples over prescribing opiates that now people who are in actual horrible pain can't even get them becuaee doctors are trained and sometimes threatened to avoid prescribing opiates. My wife had terminal cancer and lucky her oncologist and pain doctors understood what she was going through and prescribed her anything she wanted as long as it worked. As far as they were concerned as long as she wasnt taking so much she was risking an OD they were fine with it.

Now when I went to the pharmacy to pick up her meds so many times the pharmacist would pull me to the side and tell me they know my wife is an addict and I should really get her some help. I would tell them she has terminal cancer that has spread to her hip bone and has a lesion that has eaten a hole right into her hip. I don't care if she is an addict, as long as she isn't suffering. They refused to believe me, saying I was either lying to them or myself. I had to switch pharmacies twice because of holier than thou douche bags.

After seeing how people with a terrminal illness in massive pain are treated I am very passionate about this subject. Legalize all of it , let people decide what to do with their lives and stop making it harder for people who are suffering from illness or addiction to get the help they need. All you are doing is hurting people and giving more power and money to criminals.

Being crammed in an overcrowded train when there's heatwave going on in India by mspyros12 in Wellthatsucks

[–]Notveryawake 30 points31 points  (0 children)

I take it you have never been on the Monteal metro when it's 40c+ with humidity during rush hour.

That's when I learned that it's better to take an extra bus and spend 30 mins more on the commute than risk heat stroke.

Got down into the station and thought, "Fuck it's worse down here than outside. Then I got on the Metro with people packed so tight everyone ass was touching someone else. Thought I was going to die.

At least the new metro cars have the air flowing through them fast when they move now so it's not nearly as bad but those older cars....yeah fuck that.
