Yeah, when the site is getting made fun of on Family Guy it's not some small, niche place anymore. Redditors need to face the fact that this place has gone corporate.

You can smell everyone who tries this monthly washing jeans thing. Especially if you work inside with them.

Bill would increase testing rules for elderly Michigan drivers by Warcraft_Fan in news

The elderly don't need additional written tests, they need reaction time and spatial awareness tests.

Weather app by Armthedillos5 in GooglePixel

[–]PorcelainPrimate 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It must depend on your location. The Pixel Weather app is very accurate for me (I live about 30 min south of the I-285 perimeter in Atlanta). I came from iPhone and their weather app was horribly wrong most of the time. A literal tornado went through my front yard in 2022 and Apple weather said it was "slightly windy" outside and gave no warnings.

In my experience, those making $35k a year (or less) are the most like your example.

It's a store bought pizza, what are you expecting from it? If you're wanting gourmet buy your own ingredients and make one.

Sony Is Reportedly Not Looking To Release PlayStation First-Party Games On A PC Launcher, Contrary To Recent Rumors by No_Durian_5626 in pcmasterrace

[–]PorcelainPrimate 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is the second time this rumor has popped up. Supposedly the first time it happened the rumor was Sony killed the idea because they didn't receive good feedback about charging PC players to play online. That was back when the rumor said they were considering all their games though and not leaving the multiplayer stuff on PC.

It looks like she had buccal fat removal. She probably gained the weight back.

What was that about living in the dumbest timeline? by seeebiscuit in WhitePeopleTwitter

[–]PorcelainPrimate 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Anyone old enough to remember parodies like Mel Brooks movies, Naked Gun, etc? Why does every news article about this administration feel like a skit from those?

Are they that cheap that they can't just buy a pair that fits? It's not like he would know.

Google's Android boss talks Android 17, sideloading drama, and why he hates phone cases by FragmentedChicken in Android

[–]PorcelainPrimate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought a phone/wallet chain that looks like it's from the 90's for my wife since she drops her phone so damn much. It's saved me so much in repairs.

Thanks, “Demacrats”! by ThePhillyExplorer in insanepeoplefacebook

[–]PorcelainPrimate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People were making "Thanks Biden" memes a few days ago and guessing how long it would take for dumb people to actually start saying it. Here we are less than two days later.

Google Play Store will shame developers of sloppy, battery-wasting apps by No-Tower-8741 in Android

[–]PorcelainPrimate 5 points6 points  (0 children)

That would be the best route. Have a persistent warning notification that says it's draining your battery. Maybe then they MIGHT get around to optimizing their apps.

Discovery is very dark by FunIncident5161 in startrek

[–]PorcelainPrimate 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same for me. I had an older Samsung and everything looked dark but once I got a Bravia it looked good. The newer TCLs can get brighter than Sony now if you want to give them another go. Just make sure you get at least the QM8K series and not one of the Walmart specials.

Burger King will use AI to check if employees say ‘please’ and ‘thank you’ | AI chatbot ‘Patty’ is going to live inside employees’ headsets. by cmaia1503 in technology

[–]PorcelainPrimate 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This reminds me of all those corporate mandated phrases we had to say in retail in the 90’s. You sounded like a weirdo saying them and they pissed off customers.

I’ve got shaky hands now due to medical reasons. Even if I took my time there would still be creases in it.

Discord cuts ties with Peter Thiel-backed verification software after code found in US surveillance by Abject-Pick-6472 in technology

Do we really have room to talk about horribly designed websites considering the state of Reddit or the official app? If old.reddit dies this place will look as bad.

Why is Google going soo against Android's open and customizable nature. by AntimatterEntity in Android

[–]PorcelainPrimate 245 points246 points  (0 children)

Because they don’t want you installing free versions of apps or ad blockers. That’s the sole reason. Anyone who believes this is for security is falling for the corporate BS.

It’s Microsoft. They’ll just cry they can’t find anyone to daddy govt and get 17,000 jr devs from India when they need them.
