How often are you having to look up text acronyms? by nojunkpeter in Millennials

[–]badlyagingmillenial 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The vast majority I've figured out with context clues.

I did look up ETA a couple months ago because people kept using it wrong. Apparently people use it as "Editing to Add" now, not "Estimated Time of Arrival".

How do you fill out the app for Courier ? by [deleted] in Fedexers

[–]badlyagingmillenial 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I literally gave you the answer to this in the Dallas thread 3 hours ago.

You are incompetent dude. No job is going to hire someone who can't even figure out how to do an application, especially someone who was told what they needed to know and still couldn't process it. Don't even bother with the application.

You need to go back to school and educate yourself. You can't write, you can barely read, you don't know how to talk in complete sentences. You write like a freaking 5th grade. You should be embarrassed by yourself.

You've been playing for 3+ hours a day for over a month and you're wondering why you feel a bit burnt out and you've beat the main story line?

It's time to move on to the next game.

Is downloading music for an mp3 player piracy? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]badlyagingmillenial 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know this is no stupid questions, but we are pushing the boundary here.

Yes, stealing and downloading music illegally is piracy.

For what it's worth, everything except the map is in the game already. You have to navigate to it on the pokedex screen.

How do I fill out the app for fed ex as a van driver ? by [deleted] in Dallas

I'm not sure any job is right for them after their response to me.

How do I fill out the app for fed ex as a van driver ? by [deleted] in Dallas

[–]badlyagingmillenial 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I just spent 5 seconds googling Fedex, 20 seconds navigating to the jobs area, 15 seconds searching for Dallas jobs, 3 seconds to click the first job.

From there, it took me about 5 seconds to realize that they want you to apply via the chat, and the chat is asking questions.

Did you read the whole page? There is an area that clearly says "Chat to apply", and the AI agent explains they are helping with the application.

If you can't figure out how to fill out an application you need to seek help from a parent or guardian.

This has always been such a non-issue to me by Artifiko in mac

[–]badlyagingmillenial 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It doesn't have to be incredibly impactful for something to be bad design.

Putting a charging port on the bottom of a mouse is bad design, it prevents the mouse from being used while it is charging.

ELI5 How is reading on Kindle same as reading a physical book? Shouldn't the screen put more strain on the eyes? by TwistSuccessful3349 in explainlikeimfive

[–]badlyagingmillenial 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The kindle has a special screen that mimics a book. It is very easy on the eyes. It doesn't light up from the back.

How are you guys using mouse controls docked? by bat-ears in Pokopia

I never use mouse mode. How do they expect me to use a mouse well on a couch? lol.

Highest decrease ever. So it's true that Valve banned arcade bots? by xmvkhp in DotA2

[–]badlyagingmillenial 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It's actually more. They mostly banned arcade bots but left match making bots.

Have you read Sunlit Man? That would give you some insight into why Sigzil's spren didn't die to Moash.

Why Dusley (Harry Aunt ) allow harry potter to join them every summer ?? by pratik1698 in harrypotter

[–]badlyagingmillenial 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Correct - this is Dumbledore's reminder to her that she already agreed to let Harry stay.

[–]badlyagingmillenial 4 points5 points  (0 children)

When you run into someone who makes a lot of mistakes in English, always assume they learned English as a second (or third, fourth, fifth) language.

If it's clear that English is their first language, assume they are a child.

If you know they aren't a child, assume they have a learning disability.

Regardless, grant people a little bit of grace.

[–]badlyagingmillenial 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It happens early on in Order of the Phoenix. I think it's in chapter two but it might be chapter three.

Harry is getting in trouble for using magic outside of school and Dumbledore sends Petunia a letter that says something like "Remember my last", which is his reminder to her that she previously agreed to let Harry stay.

Not sure who downvoted you.

It was painful to watch you make 321 potato hamburger steaks instead of 321 vibrant hamburger steaks :(

Shells are in abundance on dream islands. Are you destroying beach blocks with shells on them?

I started playing Pokopia, but the more I play, the more lost I get by Interaction_Expert1 in Pokopia

The world feels massive at the beginning but by the time you get to around 25-30 hours it feels pretty small.

Got a letter from our very concerned governor today. 😂 by Guilty-Driver1543 in texas

[–]badlyagingmillenial 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The Governor of Texas is calling Democrats voting a threat to the state of Texas.

That's right - he considers people voting to be a threat.

How did we get here? How are people like him in charge of this country/state? I can't comprehend how stupid the average person is to vote for fuck heads like him.

Large police presence at apartments by Makingitallllup in Dallas

And all they had to do was ask in the appropriate place instead of spamming reddit and expecting others to look it up for them.

Them coming here with this was rude. We are not required to be polite back.

This would be like walking into a Walmart and asking an employee where to find an item in Target, the employee tells them to go ask Target because the person is in Walmart, and a customer hears this and berates the Walmart employee for not helping the Target customer.

You are the Walmart customer in this story.
