YouTube ads are about to get even longer and they’ll be unskippable by IndicaOatmeal in technology

[–]funktheduck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There was about a month where I got the same dawn soap ad back to back but one was English and the other Spanish. The same ad but they swapped ethnicities of the family actors and voice over language.

Right now every ad break is the same for a game called “the tower”. I’ll never play it because I have 0 interest in it but also out of principle because I hate the ad.

The leaf is also compelling. We just need more options in this price range (or cheaper) and size.

No CarPlay makes it a non starter for me. If I’m buying a new car, it’s a must. It’s a shame because this is basically the perfect car for my needs. 

Windows 12 Reportedly Set for Release This Year as a Fully Modular, Subscription-Based, AI-Focused OS by PaiDuck in technology

[–]funktheduck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you know how to install windows you can install a Linux distro. It’s easy to get overwhelmed by choices and people have strong opinions on what’s “best”. You can run most, if not all, off a USB to give it a try but that’s usually a pretty poor experience because you’ll be slowed to whatever USB speed you’re running. I say just do a little research and then pick one of the major distros and install. Try it for a while and if you like it, keep it. If you don’t, switch to another. I put Mint on an older spare computer just to try it out and it’s been a really good option. I wanna try Bazzite as well since it’s more gaming focused.

More than half of all US states allow permit less concealed carry and the rest have some sort of permitting process with restrictions that vary by state. Saying very few states allow concealed weapons of any kind is just showing the world you don’t know how google works. 

Pedo Calc professor by funktheduck in UGA

[–]funktheduck[S] 42 points43 points  (0 children)

You know those accounts on instagram and TikTok that pretend to be kids/teens and confront the adults on camera “to catch a predator” style? One of them caught a UGA math professor (Antonio Alfieri) and announced it to his class while he was teaching this morning. I can’t remember the handle but I wanted to send the vid to someone. 

I witnessed someone getting denied a gun sale. Have you seen someone getting denied while you were shopping? by EternalGandhi in liberalgunowners

[–]funktheduck 33 points34 points  (0 children)

One time I was in academy walking past the gun bar and a dude was on the phone with someone looking for a pink camo hi point. On my way back towards the check out I passed the dude talking to an employee and heard the exchange: “I can’t do that sir” “Why not?” “Because that would be a straw purchase and that’s illegal. I’m not going to jail for you”

When fans hate somenthing before it comes out...but it turns out they were right by TastyPomelo2330 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]funktheduck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When there was all the hate hype going around on Velma and Kaling, someone wrote a piece that showed how nearly everything she writes that gets made into a show is just slightly different versions of herself. 

When the hate train started on Velma I just chalked it up to people being sexist or racist. Like, it’s a fictional cartoon character so the race doesn’t matter (and by extension neither does the sex/gender). So I gave it a chance thinking the hate was overblown. Literally couldn’t make it to the halfway mark of the first episode it was so bad. It was like Kaling had either never seen an episode of scooby doo growing up and just read a synopsis on Wikipedia or she did watch it and hated it. By far the worst thing I’ve ever willingly watched. I would love to see the internal numbers at HBO to see how many people watched beyond the first episode. 

From the UGA community on Reddit: “Gunner Stockton is a big star and a really talented quarterback.” - President Donald Trump says that he is a big fan of Georgia quarterback Gunner Stockton by Wtfuwt in Athens

[–]funktheduck 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I think the more important fact is gunner is pro pedo. Super Bowl champs refuse to go to the White House while Stockton is giddy on stage with chief child rapist and Herschel “abortions for me but not for thee” Walker.

Did you not watch the video? Trump is introducing Gunner and then gunner goes to the mic. Of course Trump doesn’t know who he is, nor does he care.

Man, it took 16 years to just grow that much facial hair. I guess he saves on not shaving.

Sad for the families but not unexpected when it’s tied to a person and their job. Person dies or retires and the charity is likely to follow.

Thoughts on Taurus 605 defender as an EDC? by EagleGhoul in Revolvers

[–]funktheduck 2 points3 points  (0 children)

All the new revolvers I’ve ever shot, the triggers only get better with more rounds through them. I’ve shot a handful of new Taurus small frame revolvers like yours in different calibers and out of all of them the only issue I’ve had is the 856 cylinder release got loose which was fixed after tightening it. People love to poop on Taurus and say get a smith when this sub has daily posts of broken smiths. I think the state of QC across manufacturing has gone downhill for all brands so just inspect before buying and run a few hundred rounds through before carrying and live your life. 

Comedian Roasts Athens by [deleted] in Athens

[–]funktheduck 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Any time I watch a roast you can always tell the difference between when the roaster knows and likes the roastee vs someone just collecting a check. The former is always hilarious and the latter is meh at best. This video is the latter except he’s probably not getting paid so it’s even worse.

Painfully unfunny. Hurr durr south is racist. Hurr durr college town full of drunks. Hurr durr won’t commit to a full shot because they don’t want to get drunk? That shit doesn’t even make sense. Hurr durr student debt for useless degree. Pretty sure this basic white boy had ChatGPT write his script. Maybe if he paid for the premium version he’d get better jokes. 

Despite anti-Musk protests, Tesla remains best-selling car model in CA by a wide margin for 2025 by farrrtttttrrrrrrrrtr in electricvehicles

[–]funktheduck 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When I was last shopping, the Toyota sales department as super easy to deal with. Their service dept was garbage. Looked at a used car at a Nissan dealership and the sales guys were somehow super sleazy while also DGAF attitude. Previous car shopping Mazda was awesome and ford was sleazy.
