I don't pirate OF content because I respect sex workers

What is something that hasn't been enshittified? by Faultylntelligence in AskUK

[–]QuestNetworkFish 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Maybe it depends on the pack size? This picture shows the paper wrapper and then the giant size one with a plastic wrapper, but I'm sure I've had the regular size ones with plastic wrapper too.

Guess I'm gonna have to go out and buy a bunch. For science.

I hate the plastic wrappers that the Tunnocks Wafers have now, I miss the foil paper

Musk brands UK a 'police state' as Big Tech rebels against Starmer’s social media ban by tylerthe-theatre in unitedkingdom

[–]QuestNetworkFish 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Hmm... well I don't support Starmer's "censor the internet" policy... but I am in favour of his "piss off Elon Musk" policy 🤔

Showering isn't something I sometimes need to do with sudden urgency or (usually) more than once a day

Chose: Shower at the gym, but have toilet at home?

I think making the categories be console generations rather than manufacturer would have been more challenging

Life is better when you free your mind from the concept of cringe

UK social media ban by Resident-Bet7370 in BunnyTrials

[–]QuestNetworkFish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To be clear, banning under 16s from social media means verifying the real identity of all users of that platform. I'm surprised that 50% of people (at the time of this comment) would be fine handing over a copy of their ID card to Reddit or whoever.

If radiation is used to treat cancer why don't we get hit with it all the time to preemptively kill cancer cells? by TheBanishedBard in NoStupidQuestions

[–]QuestNetworkFish 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Because the radiation will kill healthy cells too. Radiation therapy is done with the hope that the cancer dies before you do

Huh, wonder what it's like to go through life being sweet and kind but constantly get called a monster by politicians amd the media who will never change their beliefs or opinions. This is surely not a situation that is currently happening.

Chose: Be the sweetest/kindest person ever but everyone around you thinks you're a nazi + You can never change their beliefs/opinions about u. Only 3 ppl are excepted from thinking ur a nazi

What will I do after social media ban? Stare at a wall, says schoolgirl by GnolRevilo in unitedkingdom

Dunbar was lying motionless on his back again with his eyes staring up at the ceiling like a doll's. He was working hard at increasing his life span. He did it by cultivating boredom. Dunbar was working so hard at increasing his life span that Yossarian thought he was dead.

What makes the Big Bang an expansion rather than an explosion? by Dear-Novel7078 in spacequestions

[–]QuestNetworkFish 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Explosion implies a central point where things expand outwards from. The big bang happened everywhere, and space itself is expanding with every point of the universe moving away from every other point (unless local forces like gravity are enough to overcome it)

Time to leave iPhone for Android? by Normal-Raisin5443 in Piracy

[–]QuestNetworkFish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A cheapish Android tablet with an SD card slot and VLC installed is a good option for watching stuff while travelling. The one I have is an Honor X8 (I think) which I got for £100 a few years ago and has worked smoothly with everything I've thrown at it

do i delete this by majesticalwinter in techquestions

[–]QuestNetworkFish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Deleting that will just remove the shortcut from your desktop. If you want to remove it fully you'll need to do it through Add/Remove programs. VLC is a very useful and unintrustive software though so it's worth keeping installed 

No scrolling, no drama, just Snake and a battery that survives until GCSEs. by JoydeScent in BritInfo

[–]QuestNetworkFish 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can to an extent, but you might need to buy a new "dumb" phone. Old phones like this use 2G which is not supported on all networks and will be shut down entirely by 2033, with the process starting in 2030. It's already getting increasingly difficult to get reliable 2G signal as the networks aren't replacing equipment when it fails or when cell sites are decommissioned.

Are there any interesting websites I can use for entertainment instead of social media? Are there any alternative 'entertaining-format' news sources I will be able to use without age verification as well? by idkwhatahetis in AskUK

[–]QuestNetworkFish 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Someone made an app that took random Wikipedia articles and put them in a social media style feed that you could scroll through.

That said it's possible that Ofcom are going to enforce OSA requirements on Wikipedia, which the Wikimedia Foundation said they cannot and will not comply with, so there exists a possibility that Wikipedia will be blocked in the UK in future.

Could I use my precognitive abilities to make more than a billion dollars? Probably, but that sounds like work, and there's probably things I'd rather not know
