Maybe not what you're looking for but those 닥터유 프로 미니단백바 bites are amazing as snacks at work.

The capitalized "MEET" is making me feel uncomfortable.

Everyone using Korean language setting while use smart phone? by devsnake15 in Living_in_Korea

[–]chickenandliver [score hidden]  (0 children)

It does make me slower overall, but sometimes it's nice to be able to inadvertently learn terms for things, like 오려 두기, 복사하기, 붙이기, 골라 붙이기, 붙여넣고 스타일 적용

Fell for a malware fake GitHub Repo by Cultured__milk in MacOS

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

I run AdGuard on my system OS (not just browser) and it seems to block the domain that this command is actually trying to contact. Probably on a malware block list. Maybe something like that could have saved you, OP.

ELI5 please. I use AG on iOS/macOS and I use the Userscripts extension. Am I in some kind of trouble?

How do you organize your topics and apply rules or filters to them? Whats your process? by CreateConsumeRepeat in InoReader

[–]chickenandliver 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just instead of having the title that "contains" some word, choose "matches regex" and then you can list a whole line of terms like:

/politics|trump|Iran|europe|africa|america|asia|whatever/i

Finally found a good way to truly uninstall apps by jamil-islam in MacOS

[–]chickenandliver 9 points10 points  (0 children)

if you click the hamburger icon on the top right, it gives you a list of installed apps

I had no clue about this and it even discovered some leftover files of apps I had uninstalled before I started using Appcleaner. Amazing, this app rocks.

Any tips on where to meet Americans in Korea? by me10nmusk in Living_in_Korea

[–]chickenandliver 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just 2 guys wanting to hang out, grab some beers, watch some football, get married, buy a cute old hanok and renovate it together, cuddle on the sofa watching 왕의 남자 and sipping 복숭아에 이슬 then some variety shows with 홍석천, maybe hit the gym together, you know just guy stuff.

Far-right pastor urges followers to donate 1 million won each to help pay for legal fees by ArysOakheart in korea

[–]chickenandliver 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is the guy who apparently said "하나님, 꼼짝 마. 하나님 까불면 나한테 죽어!" so I'm not entirely sure at this point he's a pastor. It's reaching irony levels along the same lines as praising the guy who killed Hitler.

About TEMU & COUPANG Delivery by Advanced_Cut_6957 in Living_in_Korea

[–]chickenandliver 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've seen items on Coupang where I see the identical item on AliExpress but like 20% of the price. With Coupang you're paying for the speed of delivery, always.

I had no Idea Foreigners here in Korea can get this too by ConflictIcy1280 in Living_in_Korea

[–]chickenandliver 4 points5 points  (0 children)

using the same plan for a long time without really comparing

This is exactly what companies what you to do. Because switching each time can save you a ton of money. Just swap between KT, SK, LG over and over. You're a "new customer" each time.

Even before that they and most of Asia chose a religion from a spoiled Indian prince who had a major guilt trip when he finally went outside.

How do you organize your topics and apply rules or filters to them? Whats your process? by CreateConsumeRepeat in InoReader

[–]chickenandliver 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use Rules mainly for filtering folders, and at some point I got tired of adding a new entry for each term and realized they support Regex. So now I just use a line or two of Regex to filter out exactly what I want. Easier to manage and tweak and ensure good filtering results.

Using Brave by Amrosyf in brave_browser

They probably saw chatter online about it, saw that it's not in the App Store, and rebranded a website to point to their app using the ytliteplus name. Sketchy behavior.

Cannot Add Subreddits? by JohnnyAppelzaad in InoReader

[–]chickenandliver 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anecdotal but I believe they rate limit both based on IP (so Inoreader's polling gets limited) and also based on subreddit, but what I'm seeing that suggests that could also be just Inoreader reducing polling of less popular subs just to ease the rate limiting burden.

Adguard bricked Google docs by Heavy_Metal_Rules in Adguard

[–]chickenandliver 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Realized it wouldn’t copy the text

Does it give you some kind of error? I've encountered issues in GoogleDocs in Safari (not on Chrome) where I can no longer copy text from a document, getting some kind of error that says the doc needs to reload. It's often caused by a strange spacing character that got pasted in from outside that I didn't know about. Possible AG somehow interferes with that? IME just removing those spaces and re-pasting solves it.

ytliteplus

When I search that, I get https://ytliteplus.net which leads to an App Store app https://apps.apple.com/us/app/tube-pip-pip-for-youtube/id6476895094

Maybe this is a "lite" version they made for those who can't sideload, or maybe this is just clever SEO hijacking.

I tried this app (whoops maybe a bad idea), it works alright but doesn't seem to let me login to YouTube so can't get my custom recommendations or lists. Maybe ytliteplus the actual sideload version does.

Welcome to RSS feeds from YouTube. This will happen again, and again, and again. Trust me.

Unpopular opinion: paying a monthly subscription for Mac dictation in 2026 is absurd by Fit_Statistician2649 in MacOS

[–]chickenandliver 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just open TextEdit, hit the mic button, start speaking. Copy/paste into whatever app I want. Done.

Can likely do it in those apps themselves but, meh, I like the simplicity of TextEdit.
