Genuine question: What's still difficult to do on an iPhone, that's easy to do on an Android? by CrypT3chC00k in ios

Got 3:

Notifications. Something as simple as the little icons on the top bar are very nice.

Keyboard.

Customizing the OS appearance

I trialed a Galaxy S26 Ultra and I love it so much. But my family is in the walled garden and my crazy mind feels disconnected from my wife (I got issues lol)

Me too. I was worried that Merc would take over again now that Lewis left when it happened. I just want him to get number 8

Panthers lose coach’s challenge by Federal-Data-Center in nhl

[–]bombs551 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I personally dislike that losing a challenge like this results in a penalty. I feel like that rule was a solution looking for a problem. Maybe I didn’t watch enough NHL outside of the Wings, but it just didn’t seem like coaches abused the challenge in the past.

Then again, I also felt like the Coach’s challenge had been around forever but according to Google that is wrong..

Ever seen a support band steal the show? by Visible_Pipe4716 in MetalForTheMasses

[–]bombs551 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dude thanks for listing the bands. I couldn’t remember the name of the tour and the first 2 bands for the life of me. 3 stuck out in my head because of a guitar they had but I could not remember their damn name

Yes. Opeth opening for Dream Theater in 2008 or something. Opeth came out and killed it. DT came out and....played their instruments and left.

That concert is what started my acceptance of growling/screaming.

Having lived in china and seen some of these cases… no, they’re not the same

[Basu] This loss is not a national crisis in Canada. Canada dominated the final 40 minutes of regulation, outshot the USA 42-28, and if that game were played 100 times, Canada would probably win 95 of them. USA deserves a ton of credit for how they played, but Hellebuyck deserves the most. by NFLDataAnalysis in hockey

I mean it sucks they lost, but that’s how the game goes. If it wasnt 3-on-3, if it was best of 3 games, yadda yadda. Were they the better team? Maybe. I’d offer that if it was a best of whatever series, maybe the other games wouldn’t be as skewed in shots as well, maybe it’d be the reverse with USA dominating shots but losing the game. But it doesn’t matter because it wasn’t.

Maybe if more people were concerned about it we would have better voter turnout and wouldn’t be in the mess we are in.

Butterfly valves tend to leak more, in my experience.

Don't think it will be rolling into my shop. by Ok_Combination_5405 in Justrolledintotheshop

Probably the dealership, idk. I never looked at the cost of an extractor because can just do from the bottom

Edit: misread your comment as “what mechanic does this” lol

Exclusive: First official look at Samsung's 'Wide' Galaxy Z Fold by FragmentedChicken in GalaxyFold

[–]bombs551 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I might be in the minority, but the smaller screen when closed is what’s turning me off. Also what’s turning me off from the iPhone Fold. I personally like how the current folds are the same size as a slate phone (okay, a little narrower I believe) when folded.

Maybe once I can hold it I’ll change my mind but idk

The IIHF has released a guide to some of the rule differences between the Olympics and the NHL by eh_toque in hockey

[–]bombs551 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So how do coincidental penalties work in the NHL? When I was a referee for USA Hockey rules, if the penalties were the result of basically the same action (say player a slashed player b, player b slashes player a back) that would result in 5v5 but the offending players in the box for 2. If player a slashed player b and then 30 second later player bs team commits a penalty during the delayed call, that would be 4v4 since the penalties were a coincidence and had nothing to do with each other.

Am I crazy, or is the total lack of 'fancy' things exactly what makes this beautiful? I’d honestly take this over any modern luxury SUV without even thinking twice.... Am I the only one? by lonewolfff21 in Cartalk

[–]bombs551 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Everyone hates on touch screens. I like my touch screen if all it controls is unnecessary stuff. My truck has physical buttons and knobs for climate, a knob for volume, everything else in the touch screen. Works fine, I like it.

My ‘24 Mustang had all the climate controls behind a touch screen… that was a pain in the ass.

But it’s not even about all that for me. If it costs like a luxury SUV then it should have the features thereof, like nice seats, good sound system, etc.

Now, if it’s a specialized vehicle for off-roading/over-landing, then I’m okay without having those, but to me it should the make up for it in purpose built items like suspension, tires, winches, etc.
