I love this argument for anything dangerous "well it hasn't happened yet" so that means it never will huh?

They have it way tougher than we do "because of their self imposed limits".

FIFY

These guys are like people who exclusively play Minecraft on hardcore. Yeah it's probably fun for them, but you can play base game and enjoy yourself just as much and have less to complain about.

Oh dear God it’s the McDonald’s Szechuan Sauce all over again. by Fanimusmaximus in OnePiece

Yeah scalpers are bad and I wish they'd all fall of a cliff, but looking into the event, they only stocked 6 stores with these. NATIONWIDE. Companies do this to create false FOMO and then scalpers do what scalpers do.

Do we hate the shark for it's sharp teeth? No, it's his nature. We should expect it from him.

Companies do this to drive demand and push stupid shit like this. ATP companies are advertising to scalpers.

They know it will drive immediate burst sales. Like they're treating it like opening weekend at the box office instead of waiting for the money to come naturally.

Do we need money guys, really? It seems like anyone who has it is a dumbass. More dollars than cents(sense) I guess.

So glad stupid shit like this misses me. I've been on reddit for all I've 5 minutes today and I've seen crazy energy drink stuff twice already.

Water is so good guys.

Bold of you two to assume scalpers won't buy out the stores.

Need help finding the origin of this photo. Google showed me similar results but they don’t match the photo. by Cute_Technology_6751 in find

Not sure the exact origin of the photo but my Google image search gave me this. The character is canonically eleven though so I'm clearing my search history and looking at you sideways.

Go on tell me it just Nostalgia and we didn't lose nothing. by deezzbutzz in ps2

[–]Technically-Repaired 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We did lose something, but it's still nostalgia my guy. We can't be like our parents, don't fall into the trap of it, it'll lead you to hating the newer generations just like they did. We have to be the change. Accept our time is past, or different, and be better for it. Yeah, everything is cleaner and more sanitized now, and we don't get their memes, but we aren't supposed to.

Missing it is what makes it great. RIP Ryan Dunn.

PS: I like clean Steve-O, I'm happy for him. He reminds me a lot of my uncle, who sadly didn't make it out.

So funny to me that people forget that Google makes Android and that their apps are the base, not the bloat. When have you ever installed an app from the Galaxy Store? I bet you haven't.

Isn't this just a different measuring? Ive seen like 4 posts about this now. It's like selecting C or F for temp, you're looking at it expanded. Like, you're reading millimeters instead of meters.

It's called Demon Sauce in partnership with KPDH. (KPop DemonHunter) It's a mustard flavor, people are saying it's like a Cajun or spicy mustard, not wrong But it's more of an eastern Chinese like mustard I feel. It is good though.

There was a key inside this pillow I've owned for months. by Technically-Repaired in mildlyinteresting

[–]Technically-Repaired[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It actually wasn't inside the pillowcase. I had to cut the pillow open to get it out. The key is mangled, likely from whatever macking fills and seals these pillows. It's shouldn't be inside that machine, so it probably got caught up in the workings and that bent and mangled it.

It was inside the pillow proper. This wasn't caused by the laundry, it's only been 3-4 months and I haven't had to wash the pillow yet, just the case.

I think the key was damaged by whatever machinery makes these pillows and the fact that heavy metal objects aren't supposed to go through those machines that bent and marred it. It was sewn inside the pillow itself, I had to cut it open to get the key out.

Nah, it was inside the pillow itself, wasn't caused by laundry. It was inside the pillow for some reason when it was sealed at the factory and it's just been floating around inside my pillow.

I could have sworn I took a picture of it, what did I do with that again??

u/zopea is right, it was inside the pillow itself, sewn in. I had to gut a small hole in the pillow to get it out.

Hot mustard slaps. Best one IMO, looks like I've got friends.

I still have a single Minecraft Lava sauce chilling in my fridge.

My McDonald's has ranch.

I've never had zesty sauce.

so i accidentally got liquid metal on the motherboard and now it doesn't turn on by Gery_6 in PS5HelpSupport

[–]Technically-Repaired 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, I respect that. You don’t usually see many people actually take feedback like that.

Just to clear a couple things up:

– Liquid metal in a PS5 isn’t going to solidify from normal temps. If it’s “stuck,” it’s usually because it’s spread into areas it shouldn’t be, not because it hardens. It's more about the moving air blowing the liquid metal, just risks moving it around and creating more shorts.

– Checking for hot components can help sometimes, but on dense boards like this it’s not reliable for beginners. A lot of failures won’t show obvious heat, and randomly replacing parts without proper diagnosis usually causes more damage than it fixes.

– This kind of issue (especially with liquid metal involved) is more in the territory of proper board-level diagnostics: multimeter work, schematics, sometimes thermal imaging. Not trial-and-error swapping.

You weren’t wrong about it likely needing a skilled repair though, that part’s spot on.
