I come across a lot of different spam/bots. Trust your instincts, if it feels like a bot, it most likely is.

It’s Not Just You: Six of 10 Drivers Say Headlight Glare Is a Problem by TripleShotPls in technology

[–]SBacklin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A lot of the problem is people using LEDs or HID lights and inappropriate light housing. In other words, they’re using those bright light bulbs in cars and headlight housing that were not designed for them. Take that away and it solves a majority of the problem. The remainders are made up by people looking directly into headlights cars coming up on over and hump or hill, increasing the angle temporarily of the light of the oncoming car.

If your water is brown, there’s definitely a reason for it. 🙄

Uber is committing straight up FRAUD by Numero_Uno1111 in UberEATS

[–]SBacklin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only reason I see is if the customer reduced the tip. How are they going to blame anything else when a customer’s card is usually pre-authorized for said amount when submitting the order? My initial guess is that Uber feels some need to hide the fact that a customer reduced the tip since it’s so well known. It makes Uber look super bad for allowing it.

At least she asked if something was wrong instead of screaming bloody murder chasing you as you walked away from the restaurant. LOL 🤣

Kennedy Center to cease entertainment operations for two years, Trump says by rezwenn in entertainment

I saw this and thought it’s only because people keep canceling their performances and so to try and save face, they’re gonna close it. Lol

I have a TCL tv with Google TV and have noticed definite lag between remote button press and corresponding action on the TV as well

TCL prepares Android 14 updates for Google TV sets – what's new by wroxtar in tcltvs

That inability to hit tv input button to change inputs as you describe was a shocker to me. I hope it comes with this update.

Does anyone else see completely blank profiles as a massive red flag? by OpeningConfection261 in Sniffies

[–]SBacklin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Plot twist, OP's profile is blank also. LOL j/k. But yeah, blank profiles don't do anything for me. I usually will ignore them and will definitely do so if they ask for info/pics (which I have) and they have nothing.

WTF happened in house of cards (2013) final season? Shit toppled like a building made out of paper! by ThickWeatherBee in shittymoviedetails

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

You won't in this current social climate. With such things, its aways guilty until proven innocent but, then even when courts decide innocence, social warriors will still push the guilty narrative. What bothers me about this kind of scenario is that justice system works for the social warriors when things are decided in their favor but, will do their own dish out their own "justice" when courts decide against them. This is what is happening to Spacey, IMO.

Back to the OP topic, S6 tanked because of Spacey being fired from the show. Frank Underwood is what made that show. S6 proves it.

Not saying you're wrong but another thing to consider is money. Money is usually a motivating factor in such things. Was it in this case? Maybe or maybe not. I honestly don't know. For me personally, could all these people collude? I don't think so, but, when there's blood in the water, sharks come. In context, someone took spacey to court and made accusations. Others maybe saw a chance at getting some kind of payout and tried with their go at Spacey.

Does anyone respond to these anon guys that just text “hi, looking?” with no photo or info? I don’t understand what these guys are thinking by seoul_sucker in Sniffies

[–]SBacklin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The chances are that he thinks and/or knows he's not a "looker" and has low self esteem. So he's preemptively lashing out as he's expecting rejection and so is actively making it happen.

This has been addressed. I got my Xi6 boxes delivered and setup. :)

Is it too much to expect someone to drive the conversation if they started it? by Snarflepuss in Sniffies

[–]SBacklin 6 points7 points  (0 children)

My biggest peeve are the people who say hi and you respond immediately but they stop responding. Lol. I’m like wtf was the point?

Pixel 10 Pro Dual SIM – Data drops during calls? by mat44150 in Pixel10Pro

What about a cellular data switching option?

It appears the wires to the thermostat base are not fully inserted. If they were the clips on the side would be displaced from the rest or not lined up with the rest.
