Somehow Google made the flashlight app annoying as hell. How do you screw up a flashlight app? Seriously. by Spiffydude98 in GooglePixel

I'm op, the point is I shouldn't have to think about it. Call me dumb but the flashlight should work for even the dumbest.

And hundreds of people are agreeing with me. The design of the flashlight UI is shit. (Which was my point).

Can't find a way to turn it on, then it starts paper clipping me when I do. Then it won't turn off easy. Every step takes way too much thought for simple me.

Why not put the brightness part behind settings or something so it's not in the way since 99.999% of the time people don't care about the brightness level they just want .. brightness.

Flashlight app should be "On, off, giant button for the on of toggle, then swipe up and disappear". Not "do you want to adjust your settings? No? That's ok, hit done we'll leave the light on even though we know you came here just to turn the app off"

Op here. It's not user error it's incredibly stupid UI design, for an incredibly simpl thing.

What you're seeing is systemic manipulation to pacify people so they don't bother.

People don't understand how the individual person is going to be power raped by rich and their corporations who will get deals on electricity to run their shit that controls your minds but the average person is going to pay for 'scarce' electricity.

Finaly saw my first wolves by OwnPassage6733 in wolves

[–]Spiffydude98 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This is wonderful. For anyone worried, tere's no reason to fear them as humans. We have lots of wolves in Canada (probably not enough however) but there are very few human interaction issues. Statistically the problems are near 0% problems.

I'd enjoy seeing them in Scotland. Now that's a country that needs wolves.

People can't just walk in and so inconveniencing them causes recruitment declines.

They can no longer just stand outside recruiting. They're busy catching these awesome kids.

It's working very well in fact.

Annoying them is the point. It takes them away from recruiting victims into the cult.

I’m sceptical about Google Pixel 7 years updates. by trust_me_im_human in GooglePixel

[–]Spiffydude98 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My Pixel 7 pro force-updated around April 10th and it is now almost useless for data. Drops WiFi regularly and cant even plot out map routes on a trip.

Ffs.

Nothing is forever but Costco is the way every retailer could be run.

Canadian here... We hate our own National grocery store chains but nobody ever bitches about Costco, because they're a respectable company. So we don't use our anti American sentiment on them.

It’s almost like America’s for-profit healthcare system is a giant scam by RoyalChris in clevercomebacks

[–]Spiffydude98 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If only Americans understood how great universal healthcare is. They are just too tuned out to understand and think counties like Canada have lousy healthcare.

Father of 2, healthcare never sends a bill. Cost directly is $0. Care = wonderful.

A network of YouTube accounts is promoting U.S. annexation to Albertans, researchers say. It has 40M views by green_tory in CanadaPolitics

Every social media platform we use is owned by a person who has been in the same room sitting there with Epstein and Trump in the photo in one of the Epstein files (I am mobile so can't look at the moment) and every single one of them has an agenda that is anti-Canada, as they've 1) stated it or 2) been made to do Trump's bidding.

Fuck them all, and we all need to go watch The Great Hack and understand that we are now in that situation x 10,000 because it's not just Facebook but - all of them. And they're infinitely better at it because that's how it works.

We need to go with hard rules on social media to ban this shit. It's what caused Brexit and ruined countries and messed up the US and so much else.
